What App do You Shoot Video with on Your Smartphone and/or Tablet?

First off, I use an Android device...have been for a couple of years. My 9 inch tablet running KitKat doesn't allow for the filming of video directly to the MicroSD card. Plus, the video features and the camera on the tablet are really, really bad. Just recently, in the last couple of weeks, I bough...

If you want the best app for shooting video I would recommend getting an iPhone and then using Hyperlapse from Instagram. It's the best app ever.

Rick Shorrock

Steve, I thought Hyperlapse was made by Microsoft. Anyway, I was talking about what you like about Hyperlapse, not a phone recommendation. Do you shoot video with Hyperlapse, just because it takes sha...

Fusion is the world's most advanced compositing software for visual effects artists, broadcast and motion graphic designers, and 3D animators.
Michele Hjorleifsson

Nate Wubu

DVD & Bluray Manufacture/Fulfillment

Can anyone recommend a good DVD & Bluray manufacturing & fulfillment company? Thanks

Tui Ruwhiu

Tui Ruwhiu

Thanks for that, Rick.

Distinguising Between Different Types of Lenses

Hi, Mitchell. Nice to meet up with you here at Stage32.

Thank you for the connection, Rick!

Let's get the industry active in Florida.

Christian Rap Song at Concert

This is a Christian rap song being performed at ST8UP Youth Ministries. I shot this on a Canon 60D, edited with Sony Vegas Pro 12 and color graded with a tweaked version of Neumann Films' Cinematic Presets.
