Ahoj, this is Zdenka. How to film the Digital Osmo Mobile 6 and iPhone 14
PRO. Let's pair them together and film a beautiful cinematic piece
of this location which is sunrise in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada.
This video is sponsored by Epidemic's Sound.
In this tutorial for beginners, I'm going to go through few things
and that would be gimbal modes, shooting or operating modes on the gimbal.
I'm going to take you through each shot separately.
I'm going to explain the composition
and framing and show you what I am doing and why I'm doing this.
Some of the shots will be filmed in DJI Mimo, others
will be done in cinema mode in native camera app.
Now that we can change the gimbal modes directly on the gimbal,
we don't have to go to DJI Mimo all the time,
this is going to be way easier.
Let's start with a quick tip.
The best shots are not always
happening at the eye level, especially when it comes to sunrise.
This shot looks okay.
Nothing special.
If you go down very close to the water,
you're going to get the reflection, which makes the shot just pop.
You don't even have to move much.
These ones are done in underslog position when I'm literally
turning the gimbal upside down
and I'm following the movement of the waves,
filming in 60 frames per second second so I can then
slow it down.
Another tip
is here. To get a variety of shots
without literally moving your feet,
try different lenses.
Telephoto lens can give you a completely different view. As I'm panning sideways,
I chose tilt lock mode on the gimbal.
The only thing you have to watch out for is to move extremely slowly.
As the sun
is slowly coming up and it's going to appear within a few minutes,
I have moved from the beach here to those big rocks
because I already shot the beach
and I need some different texture or structure to film through.
When it comes to morning light, right now is just kind of like a cool blue light.
I know that once the sun will come out,
everything will be golden, everything will be beautiful golden.
So right now, I don't want to shoot any of that because
I'm still in the blue tones.
What I did before was taking
really beautiful orange sunrise, red sunrise in the morning.
So I'm already getting the golden color in there.
And I'm going to continue with this.
So right now, I'm going to take advantage of those rocks
and I'm going to be using them sort of as a silhouette, still showing the gold.
So then once the sun comes out, I can continue with the golden light.
I'm just going to turn the camera around and shoot the rest.
We just want to stay in the same tones.
If I will be shooting everything blue and then red and then blue,
it'll be all over the place.
So my choice and my best bet would be staying with the golden tones.
And right now, just be patient and waiting until the sun comes out.
I already shot the sun so many times and it's already coming out.
So this is getting golden in the back.
I'm shooting two times telephoto and what I'm going to do, I'm
going to lock the focus on the object in the distance,
dragging the sun
tiny bit down to make it very moody looking.
And I'm just going to go down and reveal I'm using all follow
mode for this one.
And now I'm going to pan continue the movement.
I'm placing the shot now when you look at the grid line,
the horizon is on top line.
And I'm going into this and I'm feeling
the power of the sun actually.
oh, it is peaking out.
Right now I am shooting in cinematic mode
and as you can see, I have tilted the elbow all the way
to make it much easier for me to work in low angle.
And this is called the low angle position. In cinematic mode
I cannot film in 60 frames per second, so I'm keeping it at 24.
So I'm going to double tap the trigger to recenter the gimbal
and now I'm very, very close to the rock.
So let me just show you the screen recording of this particular shot.
I'm filming with one time standard lens.
I'm going to lock the exposure
in the back and I'm going to be doing is just
laying very close to the ground
or even this way it's been a to bit better
and just push forward.
Right now I'm filming in cinematic mode.
I don't have anything locked and I'm just panning to the side.
I really like the colors on the rocks.
I'm letting the camera to focus on its own.
This whole video you're watching is how to film all those clips with DJI
Osmo Mobile 6.
Precisely the framing and composition.
How is your video editing?
Filming the clips is just the beginning.
Choosing the right music, placing the clips in order,
cutting them on certain beats, timing adding sound effects.
80% of the result happens in a post.
It's not easy to find the right music and sound effects.
My preferred music service I use for a number of years is Epidemic Sound.
They own 100% of their music, so you don't have to worry
that you'll receive a copyright strike or takedown.
You can use it on social media such as Facebook and Instagram
and also on monetized YouTube channels.
One unique feature I absolutely love is the ability to download
not only full songs but also separate stems.
If you only need the beats or melody for your cinematic B-roll, all is possible.
You can choose between personal and commercial plans.

Thank you Epidemic Sound for making this video possible.
I am back in DJI Mimo because in native camera app, if you're
in a regular video mode, you cannot film in 60 frames per second in 4K.
So I'm in DJI MIMO where I can film in 4K 60 frames
per second. And I really do like this view,
so I'm just going to walk forward
and I have selected standard lens.
It's tilt lock mode because
I'm going to be moving forward.
It is still golden and I like the golden reflection in those rocks.
So just to get another fill up shots
just of the rocks, I'm going to go forward. This time
I'm filming and all follow mode because I would like to use this side position.
This is going to help me to be as close to the rocks as possible.
I'm going to frame with the help of the joystick the shot.
I am just
going to lock the focus
on the background because I would like to have those rocks
a little bit blurred out and I'm going to go as close
as possible to the rocks
and just follow
the movement,
making sure the tallest building is on the
third of the grid.
I am trying not to trip.
I have moved here where the lighthouse is.
We have incredible light here.
There is a fisherman at the end, so I'm getting silhouette of a person.
There's one more person standing.
So just gorgeous view.
For this shot, I am will be walking forward
close to the railing
to follow the leading lanes. The mode on a gimbal
I have selected as tilt follow mode because I don't want the frame to change.
I'm going forward.
There are two ways of filming this shot, high and low.
Let's take a look at the first one, which is just in an upright position.
The view is above the railing.
In this second shot
I have again in a low filming position
and I am seeing the view below the railing.
It's a good idea to film different options.
Once you edit it, you can make a decision which one
you like more.
I am going to
film with an ultra wide angle lens because everything is just gorgeous
and I'm going to pass very slowly the poll.
I'm going to lock the brightness exposure for the distance.
I'm going to actually bring bring the exposure a lot down.
Let me just show you what kind of shot you can get.
The poll is black and shiny, which means you are going to get the reflection.
Take a look.
I really like the silhouette of those fishermen.
So right now I am filming in DJI Mimo.
I have telephoto lens selected.
And just moving very slow down all the way to the ground,
catching all those shadows and silhouettes.
Another really nice view is
just going through structure, and whenever I see such a complex
structure like this, I'm already hoping that it is going to be a great shot.
And it really is.
There is a lot of
shadows, there's a sun, so the contrast is very high
and there is just so much complexity and so many leading lanes.
That is always worth the experiment to go under, go through,
just see what it does.
I'm using cinematic mode for this.
I am going to be filming with just a standard lens and I'm going to start
in back.
The whole time I'm shooting today, I'm keeping in my mind to film
against the sun whenever possible.
Very little with the sun in the back, because everything looks flat
on these mobile phones.
So it's way better to film against the sun to get a contrast.
Now it is time to go down, though.
I want to have a look very close to the runway
and I was standing right below it.
But I'm not really liking what I see there.
It's just very muddy looking, it is not looking great.
Fortunately, those these rocks, just ignore what's behind me here.
You're not going to see that in the final video
in the B-roll.
So I'm going to shoot through the rocks, revealing the lighthouse.
And because we are introducing so much of a foreground,
I think I'm going to option again for cinematic mode.
This lens I'm choosing is just one time standard.
I started here early in the morning.
I'm going to finish it here.
Now the sun is very high.
Is no longer morning light.
The golden is gone and now it's daytime light.
So I believe I have enough of shots.
Let's add some music, sound effects
and play that.
