Filming Equipment

 For my documentary, I will be using an iPhone 14 to film. Last year, while filming my portfolio project for AS level (SCROW), I had a lot of trouble  keeping my shots stable alongside getting the right lighting. For this, I plan on buying a smartphone video rig for my phone. This will not only help me stabilize my shots as it has two handles but will also improve the lighting in my shots as it has external lighting on it. On top of all of that, it also has microphone attachments that will enhance/capture sounds my phone cannot get as well. 

What I Will Be Purchasing:

Amazon.com: ULANZI U Rig Pro Smartphone Video Rig, Filmmaking Vlogging Case,  Phone Video Stabilizer Grip Tripod Mount for Videomaker Film-Maker Video- grapher with Cold Shoe Mount for iPhone Samsung and More : Cell

Shot stability and lighting are always a consistent issue within projects I make. I believe making this purchase will help mitigate these problems. I will be using this tool for the majority of my B-Roll Footage. I will be using a tripod for my interviews as they are completely still shots.
