Marvellous Mobiles 
Shooting web-ready video and images on smartphones & tablets
The Rule of Thirds 
Try to align your subject on one of the points of focus – the eye is 
naturally drawn to these points 
Avoid placing your subject in the centre of the picture 
Have your subject moving towards or looking into the empty 
space in the picture
The “Ant and Dec Rule” 
Always make sure a speaker is on the 
same side of the frame during the film 
Use alternate sides of the frame for each 
interviewee 
When you are shooting cutaways. make 
sure your speaker appears to be talking to 
the interviewer 
Use alternate sides of the frame for each 
interviewee
Rule of Thirds – it’s not the law 
Try to make sure your horizon is straight – but play about with 
this. Rules are made to be broken... The same goes for the rule 
of thirds. If it looks good to you then go for it!
Blur 
It doesn’t matter how interesting your subject is 
if the picture is out of focus! 
Most cameras or smartphones have an 
autofocus function 
Hold the camera or phone with both hands 
Spread your feet apart, one foot a pace in front 
Keep your elbows tucked in towards your torso 
Press the shutter button lightly
Focus and Depth of Field 
Always make sure your subject is in sharp focus 
Focus can be used to draw attention to your 
subject using 
depth of field 
You can also try pull focus shots in your videos if 
you have the right apps
Sound 
If you’re going to make good films 
you need good audio 
For the best audio – get close 
to the sound source 
Use a plug-in microphone 
and headphones 
Even using a hands-free may give you a cleaner-sounding 
interview
Light 
Try to use soft light for people and objects (near a window or 
lamp) 
Avoid having the light source behind the person 
Contrast can be good for buildings 
For sunsets its better to have a dark foreground and a sky that is 
properly exposed 
To avoid shaky pictures at night use a tripod or try sitting your 
phone on something stationary and level (a wall, table etc)
What’s in your bag? 
Microphone, headphones, tripod 
USB cables 
Blu tac/hacky sac 
Batteries (if your mic needs them) 
Always keep your film kit together - Always
Budget Apps & Software 
Smartphone for stills: 
Snapseed 
Photoshop Express 
Instagram 
Smartphone for video/audio: 
Voddio 
iMovie/Pinnacle Studio 
Filmic Pro (iPhone), Cinema FV-5 (Android)
