hey everyone welcome to green light so today we're going to be unboxing um i just under 15
um matte box that i got for my smartphone my
smartphone cinema rig and i'm going to show you and put it all together and just show
you really quick uh when i unbox this alright so let's get started right now
all right so i got this here from amazon and it's um it's a different uh and zim or something
it's a different kind of um a company than newer but it looks like the newer um the newer
ones cost a little bit more this is like 13.99 i believe so um that's why i said it was under 15
under just under 15 so it was actually like 14 something i guess um really cool so it comes
like this and it's all plastic and everything like that so you see it comes this map box so
i'm gonna be unboxing this here but i'm gonna connect which i have um a smartphone here which
is my iphone 10 um that i was getting i might end up upgrading this to like an 11 or a 12 so
stay tuned for that if anything and hit the notification bell on the like button as well
on this video because it helps me out with stuff like that and then i can continue upgrading um the
gears that i have here all my filmmaking gear that i have here so um i do have the iphone here iphone
x and it looks good with um the b script pro i also bought this which was eight dollars
and i'll include it in the description below too is something that a lot of people were talking
about i don't think i could just like take it out because i've gotten it in there tight
it's really tight in there it screws on here and this is so i could put the dof adapter
the yulonzi dof adapter so i'm going to put it on here
and here's my lonzi dof dof adapter depth of field adapter and then i'm going to
take this off here
all right so turn just a little tight here and there we go perfect i have it on there
perfect because when i screw this on you see it's a little tight you kind of do that
right and then you put it in here
it's best to do this like on a table
and then you you kind of lay this flat on a table and then you put it on it's best to do
it like that and then when i put it on there it'll fit just snug because when i first put
it on and i got it just like that to kind of slightly snug i i rotated this which rotates
the whole thing and then gets it aligned so then you have the square you're aligned
with your lens and then it's all aligned with the lens uh barrel of your um of your smartphone
so let me put the smartphone on here and here now there we go
as well and then i have i'm gonna put this down right here i have this
very very cool very cool i'm excited about this rig
i'm kind of working a little fast here because um
my wife's working we're all working and my son's kind of like acting out a lot and i need to kind
of just go get him and give her some time to work on some stuff so let's uh get this on here
i got a little quarter um i'm going to get some tools specifically for this
and hopefully and if you got any advice if you want to give any device go ahead let me know
if something works better for you as far as like uh when it comes to like cinema tools and cinema
rigs and stuff like that if there's any kind of like you know tools that that you use i'm not
gonna use a quarter for it and use more like a wrench or something you know to that respect so
um since the last video i did with this um which you should see in the playlist um i did buy this
thing here which i'm able to support the yulonzi dof adapter a little bit and just give it more
of like um some like relief so uh before i put it on there and loosen this up and put it down
okay
all right so you see here so now i put this on here i just give it just a slight
little push there on there and i hold it on there lefty loosey
there we go some righty tighty put it there right tighty
there we go and that is just snug perfect right there so it gives it kind of like um
some weight it just weight support so it doesn't like strain so much on the on the
metal um adapter in there just in case i mean it it's just in case i've seen other people do it
and then when the lens starts to get heavier i don't want to give so much like strain on
that little um thing there too you don't want to break it uh so this is really cool already
starting to look really really cool and you know usually you gotta adjust here
um this part first but just out of demonstration everything like that this here would rise up a
little bit more and this would rise up a little bit more and then it just touches it just enough
to give it you know some like some support which is everything that i want from it it's
just to give it some support so it doesn't strain on on the stuff so much so this is my
i think it's uh 55 to 85 or something like that or
to 55 or something it's 18 to 55 or something like that um
yes my my 58 my 18 to 55 millimeter um zoom
canon lens that i have for my uh my canon 60d and i use it now for this
um lately and i've been playing around with it i have a 50 mil
um which is like the nifty 50 is what they call it um so you always try to keep these closed and
stuff like that i don't have a lens cap so i kept it upside down in here so it's protected
um as you grow older and you get to know equipment and stuff like that you start to
get used to how things are are put together and everything like that so um let's see
how i can do this all right so i'm going to put it on here
myself and then i'll bring it up so i can show you
get the line aligned and it snaps right in see
this is an iphone x
and i have a beast beast cam app in here as well so let me know in the comments down
below if you've heard of the beast cam app if you're looking to purchase it um and if you're
interested in learning more about it i don't see a lot of videos too much about it other than beast
uh grip the company beast grip actually that made these things um actually um make a video about it
and then uh um i saw somebody else review uh do an app review about it as well but if
you'd like to hear from a filmmaker's point of view that's very i don't mind doing that myself
i've been thinking about doing it i also been thinking about purchasing the filmic pro as well
so i'll let you know why about that as well so let me know in the comments down below if that intr
that interests you in any way so what we're here for is to put the map box right in front
of here because that kind of makes a um a look that's kind of like everything um for filmmakers
so i'm gonna put here again everything i'm talking about here i'll have um
amazon links in the description below now most youtube channels will say that they have amazon
links in the description below and their affiliate links and all that and all that jazz but this is
um not one of those channels i do not have affiliate links um i had affiliate links
before but those are for channels that are that i already have an audience built i believe um
and built into that kind of just want to make this for educational purposes um i'd love for you
to just check out my films and everything like that that that is more important to me than um
than affiliate marketing in a sense but it could end up coming up in the future once uh this this
channel gains popularity obviously um but it helps not only the channel but then it helps you know
you guys for information now you see here this is the rig now i wish i could i'm gonna get
something over here just to kind of cover over here to get it a little darker um and then maybe
um bring this back a little bit more as well i could bring it back just to smidge a little
bit um and then i could add stuff to it um but very very cool let me see something here
so the the phone's off i have it off i had it on earlier but uh the phone's off but
you could see now this is um the setup here and then we got a couple of wings
that came with it as well
so we have one up here because it's supposed to be just like three um and then two in here as well
all right
so this screws it's just going to snap on here
put it down
getting really close to the microphone sorry about that
there we go all right so now it's all on very cool very cool so let's uh
just turn this on
what's cool is that this map box also has a riser
so um i'm turning all this on there's me and my wife
so all right so let's see here
now these cam is not loaded up in the thing yet but um none of it is really
loaded up i can't even show you the pro movie um but like i said like since i'm getting a new
new camera um let's see here now we can now i can like put this on here
okay
i see i'm gonna rise this a little bit more
yay for the riser thing all right tighten tighten some more let's put this on video mode and then
then push it to the side a little bit
because it's not it's lining up now but you see there's some vignetting it as well now the
all right so there we go oh press record you see i press the record button a little on that
so that's probably something that you might have to like look out for as well
so you can see here that um these are like just a regular video settings so i'll be doing a review
on the app and everything like that but you can see already with the unboxing and everything and
i kind of snapped this off for a mistake but these are all plastic um on just under 15 so
you can check it out on amazon in the links in the description below so i'll see you here
next week when we talk about blu-ray releases and everything like that here on this channel
as well so if you like filmmaking stuff let me know in the comments down below if you
love anything that i've shown you here let me know what your interests are any questions that
you may have and stuff like that this is on a little riser let's uh bring this up a little bit
make everything look even a little bit it looks kind of cool
so let me know what you think in the comments down below and i'll see you here next time later
