Fortunately for beginners, we live in a time where high-quality digital cameras are made to be affordable for personal and recreational use. You can practice videography with gadgets that you may already have. Consider your iPhone or Android smartphone, as long as you keep these simple things in mind:
Use the back camera for better quality footage
Shoot in landscape mode (horizontally instead of vertically)
Turn on the overlay grid on your screen, if you have it, when shooting video. This gives you a handy guide for keeping your phone level
If you have the budget for it, we recommend purchasing a gimbal stabilizer for your camera for steadier handheld shots, an external microphone for better audio, and a reliable video tripod.
