[@zisanahmed8347]

Wow

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks for watching!

[@mxisaaa]

i found this video of yours and i was instantly amazed. i looked at some others as well & there’s something about the way you edit your footage that actually translates into a feeling i can’t describe.
my favourite part of this whole video has to be the ending, the airport and airplane scene. i think that part is absolutely perfect. watching your videos has made me realise that this kind of videography and editing can be achieved with even just an iphone if taken seriously. i’m extremely inspired by you and if you ever release videos showing your editing process & how you do your color grading, i would be overjoyed.
appreciate the content, thank you.

Amazing video, saved to the favorites for sure! Which LUTs did you use? color grading looks great!

[@LeoOuyang]

Thank you very much-glad you liked it! I was using LUTs from VisionColor.

[@BCE-111]

Nicely done! 👍Nice music too! Just got an iPhone 15 Pro Max too. Put a new screen protector and case on it this morning. 🙂

Excellent, hard to tell its been done on a phone.

[@LeoOuyang]

Thank you very much! 😊

[@fadersatl4062]

Thanks for the help and reply do u turn down exposure in camera or when u edit

[@LeoOuyang]

No problem! I turned it down while filming.

[@fadersatl4062]

Looks amazing how did u get great low light performance mine is so grainy do u sell LUTs for your color grade or do u teach or have courses?

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks very much, I'm glad you liked it! Just a hobby for now so don't have any plans yet😄For low light shots, I kinda like to manually turn down the exposure a little to avoid the heavy noise.

[@zarinabtabdullahmoe9575]

Edit video using what? Smooth!

[@LeoOuyang]

Thank you! 😄 I used Final Cut Pro X.

[@user-qk7kt9ts2x]

Awesome! make some luts and tutorial please I wanna achieve them :((

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks for watching! Need to start preparing😄

[@SerxioK]

Hi. Very beautiful work. Please tell me, what resolution and aspect ratio do you use in the final video to upload to TH-cam?

[@LeoOuyang]

Thank you very much! For the final export I used a 2.39:1 aspect ratio and the resolution is 3840x1608.

[@riowinaryo18_86]

I'm an Android user, and iPhone has the best video camera. But they must watch out from others.

[@JMLEE2701]

What is the size in landscape mode?
I want to know the full aspect ratio!
A full ratio that hasn't been enlarged!!

[@LeoOuyang]

Hi! The highest resolution this phone can get for video recording is 3840x2160.

[@carvincain4336]

Great color . Do you have a LUT?

[@LeoOuyang]

Thank you! Yes I did use color LUTs for this one😄

[@d33pmind]

Hei man, congrats! Amazing shot and composite! If may I ask, how big are in terms of size (average) the video file? I'm considering to switch to iPhone 15 Pro Max, and I'm trying to understand the right memory size. Thanks in advance!

[@RD168__]

if you had an extra budget and love photography, consider to buy the largest memory. as in my experience, 1 RAW photos it can takes up to 100MB & 2 minutes videos shooting on 4K 60fps, takes up 1GB!!!! honestly I kinda regret buying Iphone 14 Pro in 128GB. hope that helps

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! For the file size, a 10 seconds 4K 24fps ProRes HQ clip from the native camera app takes about 1GB of space. But we do also have the options to record to external SSD or record other codecs/resolutions that produce smaller files.

[@d33pmind]

@@RD168__ thanks man appreciate!

[@d33pmind]

@@LeoOuyang thanks Leo, I was considering adding an extra SSD as well but probably as RD168 said, starting with 256GB would be better

[@LeoOuyang]

@@d33pmind That would be awesome. Hope you enjoy your new phone! 😄

[@FFxO]

no gimbal at all? super steady!

[@LeoOuyang]

No Gimbal😄 I was also super impressed by how stable the footage was!

[@sanjaegarcia5585]

Tutorial please.

[@luistx16]

This is not using the Cinematic mode in the built-in Camera app, but rather using Video mode and enabling the ProRes Log option, right?

[@LeoOuyang]

That is correct-I was using the regular video mode but with the ProRes Log option on.

[@emmanuelhammond5862]

all is handheld?

[@LeoOuyang]

That is correct!

[@EHBOFICIAL]

Do you use filters vnd in iphone?

[@LeoOuyang]

No I did not😊

[@douglasrand117]

External lenses used? Shot on 422 HQ?

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks for watching! I didn't use external lenses. And yes, the footage was 422 HQ😄

[@riowinaryo18_86]

Do you only do iphone?

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks for watching! I made a Samsung Galaxy video a couple of years ago, which can be found on the channel. I do plan to make more videos with Android phones in the future.

[@ayush.-vu8rm]

Is this really shooted by iPhone?

[@LeoOuyang]

It sure was! 😄

[@pragmatikomusic]

Tutorial! Please!

[@LeoOuyang]

Thanks for watching! It's in the works😄

[@charantej1077]

Lense ?

[@LeoOuyang]

Didn’t use any external lenses for this one! 😄
