    Thank you. I enjoyed the whole video (and many of your other ones)... You're a great teacher, but I must be a terrible student. I can't even seem to be able to hold it right. I would like to keep the smartphone steady while i move forward or just use my torso from left to right, but the damn thing moves anyway (using a DJI OM 5)... It doesn't keep my desired framing, it turns slightly horizontally...

    One thing I would add...Play back each clip before moving on to the next shot. You don't want to discover later in the edit that some of your clips don't look as good as you originally thought. Also, you might consider using a Monitor Hood Sun Shade for your phone during playback so you can better see your finished shot.

    Hi, I came across your video as I was admiring the design of my DJI osmo3 and I am not much of a filmmaker, but I didn't realize that just filming an old building using a gimbal could be just as exciting as watching a movie done by pros. I have always had ideas of dynamic filmmaking such as in F1, the cars driving away into the sunset but now that i have a DJI Osmo 3 I can't wait to maybe one day when covid 19 is over and I get to go the motorsport races again, I will be able to do those shots that I have always envisioned. All thanks to you and your videos. I hope that all made sense. Bye4now....SqueezyHugs.
