Your First Short Video: From Idea to Finished Edit on Your Phone
Make one finished 60-second video with your phone: plan the shots, get clean audio, light with a window, and edit for free.
S Your phone is already a great camera. Let's make your first short film with it.
My first videos were shot on a phone and edited on a laptop that could barely handle it. I didn’t go to film school. I learned by making a lot of short, imperfect videos and asking more experienced people what they would change.
I help beginners get from idea to finished edit: planning shots before you hit record, getting clean audio, simple lighting with what you have at home, and editing in free software. Send me a draft by text, and on our next call we’ll go through it together, cut by cut.
15 minutes. Tell me where you are, I'll tell you what I'd do.
