 how to shoot a music video just using your phone coming up what's up everyone my name is cracka lack welcome back in today's post i'm going to show you guys how to shoot a music video just using your phone so i want to do this video for two reasons one because since i've been doing these music video tutorials a lot of people are asking what camera should they use and then two a lot of people make the excuse of waiting to shoot music videos until they save up to get a camera so if all you have right now is just your phone use your phone now granted i've been shooting music videos for almost 10 years now and i've shot over 400 music videos but we're gonna have fun the camera that'sf

ilming this is a sony a7s2 it's got like a 1600 lens on it normally i shoot music videos with this but we're going to dumb it down take it back to just using the phone i don't think i've ever actually shot a music video with a phone but it's going to be it'll be interesting at least if you're not already make sure you subscribe and hit the bell to be notified for future uploads more good content just like this right here all right so we're here in nashville tennessee this is our airbnb this is b-lils she's the artist i have other tutorials using b-lils as the rapper on my channel too so make sure you check those out but here's the deal it's going to be dark in about 30 minutes so we're going to shoot a music video from start to finish in under 30 minutes and also it's completely run and gun i haven't even heard the song so we're going to listen to

 the song right now then step one i always say once you get to the location pick out the coolest spots so we're gonna kind of scout the airbnb real quick and pick out the dopey spots and then start shooting also key here there's accessories you can buy for your phone like stabilizer attachments all sorts of other things that can take your phone to the next level and i didn't want to use any of that in this video i want to have it as simple as possible also there's apps that you can pay for that allow you to adjust the shutter speed the iso the aperture all that for your actual phone i'm gonna be shooting it in auto mode with the phone so everything is simple as you can possibly get hopefully i can pull it off hopefully it looks dope all right now like i said we're rushed on time because the sun is setting we got the nashville tennessee skyline right here on the balcony so we're gonna knock this thing out first and then do the rest probably inside maybe yeah that way just a little bit okay i already know a lot of you are going to ask what phone am i filming this with this is a samsung galaxy 9+ so that was actually in 4k and then just to avoid the whole oh what

 would it look like if you filmed it with an iphone b-lils has uh iphone 11 he's got the iphone 11 so i'm going to get some scenes with iphone 11 some seasons with the galaxy s9 plus and use both phones one thing that starts with filming with your phone is i'm not seeing the setting to adjust the frames per second normally the end product of the video is going to be 24 frames per second so normally i'd be filming that shot right there 24 frames per second but i'm not able to adjust that so i think by default it films in 30 frames per second but i do have the option in here to film at 60 frames per second so i'm going to get some b-roll of him just vibing with the song that's all going to be in 60 frames just look over at the camera you ain't got to uh just be wrong all right see right here you got a light above you so that should be straight and then you got the this behind you slideshow going around getting some b-roll right now random b-roll scenery b-roll
