Very professional tutorial video. I'm surprised this isn't a 100k subscribers channel.

Only a matter of time until the algorithm picks up these vids, keep them coming, subbed 🤝

[DylanMicheletti]

This videos was clean man, very well done. Thank you

[soniateach]

Super helpful video! I’m not on TikTok but I’m gonna try this out for YouTube shorts!

I am mind blown 🤯 😂 it never occurred to me to just turn the cameras orientation. Thank you 😊

DUDE INTRO WAS FIRE! Love the little preview explanation of what to expect this video. Low key hoping it was a dance video now...

[latexalina]

one of the most underrated channels for real

Is there a way to use a mirrorless camera and still do green screen and tiktok effects inside the app? Like to use an external cam while recording inside tiktok?

[stephaniesparkle]

this video was my lifesaver, I was very confused. thank you!

[Ktmiinch]

You definitely deserve to pop off on YouTube! Your videos are so professionally done, yet still fun and exciting. Thanks for the help!

[annumsajid]

Hey! So after you edited the video in the final cut pro- like we have to get that program ? But after that do you send this back to your phone somehow? How do you send it to your phone without losing quality ?

[Kratz]

This was incredibly helpful and nicely done! I especially loved the intro because not only did you preview what we can expect in the video, but you also made us laugh. I definitely hit that 'subscribe' button lol.

I’m a wedding and portrait photographer, and I noticed I get great engagement when I film behind the scenes of my photographic process. The only problem is, I wanted the videos to be the same quality of my images. That’s basically impossible when I hand my phone to an assistant to film. This very much comes in handy, and I look forward to upping my TikTok game. Thanks so much!!

thank you ! new subbed! Can you make a video about how to upload it and all the finalized things required to actually post the video as you would with music, etc.

Hi! Great video! I think the only issues that wasn't touched on was if you do a dance video, or lip-sync. How do we make sure that our timing is on par. Other than that I think everything in this video was super helpful! Thank you.

[Auntydaren]

Thank you so much for the wonderful video as a new dslr user I found this very useful

[megwd]

Excellent tutorial! Tiktok algorithm has issues with grainy/dark videos and my phone really struggles getting a clear image.

[TechOutAdam]

My man, you deserve more subscribers this was insanely helpful. I’ve been on TikTok only a week and am growing quick. I have a Sony A7C so can you imagine how I feel only using my iPhone? lol! Thank you!
