Love this video Anna! So many really helpful hints, tricks and techniques and all explained in a clear and professional way. Very inspiring too! Also the Snapseed app looks wicked, I haven't come across it before. I will look into getting that so that I can ditch my silly Adobe subscription potentially!

Thanks Shannon! I would love to get together to get more advanced tips for building sets for phone photography. You're so good at it! Also, look into Affinity Photo if you prefer desktop editing. Not free, but cheap and one off.

@@FourBricksTall I don't know how advanced my tips are but it would be cool to take a look at it. I will check out that Affinity program too, thanks for all the great tips!

thanks so much for sharing!

Great video. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing video as always. bravo!

The first photo is very effective. Thanks for all the handy hints.

"I just like shooting." I love this! Thanks so much for all of your informative, clear instruction. Your videos are helping me a lot and inspiring me to try things out.

Ha, yes, I just like to shoot! I have a newsletter topic about that coming up because I think social media has made photographers forget where the joy is in our work. If it's in the likes, you're doing it wrong 😂

Oh I love these videos! So I personally have a camera but I like to hear new tips and tricks. What do you use for the mist (sorry I am a german and didn‘t understand the word.😅)

A phone camera *IS* a camera too 😉 I think you mean you have a dedicated camera as do I-- three of them. My mister is also shown in a few videos but you'll see it more prominently in the Creating Atmosphere video I made.

Thanks for telling me that! That motivates me!

A great video as always! While we all enjoy the depth and control of a dedicated camera, doing a whole elaborate setup with situating pieces in nature or in a complex diorama, there really is a lot to be said for the raw simplicity of just grabbing a phone and a bit of LEGO. The bit of water on that first shot, especially, *completely* sold it as a shot with far more complexity than just being at your desk with a couple kinds of spray bottles!

The real point as always is: know your gear. If you understand the strengths of your gear and play to them, you can turn out great work regardless. I know photographers with dedicated cameras and $$$ macro lenses who hike an hour or so to a beautiful location only to f1.8 it into oblivion.

This is my favourite video from you! Many thanks! :)

Loved the video, so many useful tips!! Where can I get tiny LEDs like the ones you used?

@FourBricksTall

Жыл бұрын

Oh I have so many of these kinds of LEDs and I'm not really loving any in particular, so you can just search for "LEGO LED". My previous video talks a bit about the fragility of these.

Hi,where did you buy those lights?

This was great! I didn't know that Photoshop Express and Snapseed were a thing (I downloaded them onto my Moto G, as I was watching this). I was wondering if you have any tutorials on how to use two small lights, with a blue and a red plastic filter, to enhance a night scene?

Super helpful. Do you have a camera app you recommend for iPhone?

I don't use iPhone but I think Halide or Camera+ 2 have manual controls.

where can I buy that mist?

This looks amazing! What camera app are you using? I'm struggling to find one that lets me change camera settings manually on Google Pixel (Android) :/

This is the stock camera app on the Samsung Galaxy S20. Check yours for a "pro" setting. Lightroom Mobile (also with a great editor!) is free. But just search for manual camera and you should find something.

Great video! How could I find one of those mist projectors? (Just a cheap one off of amazon or something) Thanks!

Me too with the unsteady hands but I wanted to shoot like how most phone photographers shoot. Any time you introduce some gear to using a phone, the phone loses some of its appeal.
