Exciting times ahead for UK Video Skills Training. We've just signed up to twitter (ukvideoskills) and started our new blog all on the same day - think we'll need a G&T at the end of the day to recover. Thought we'd start this new blog with a couple of old favorites and some speculative rumors. According to various media outlets this week the all new iPhone 5 is due very, very soon and UKVS cannot wait to get our hands on it. It will mean some hard work reviewing our popular 'QuickShoot' iPhone filming and editing course but if the leap of video capabilities from the iPhone 3 to the iPhone 4 is anything to go by it should be very exciting. Remember our 5 top filming with an iPhone tips: 1/ Use airport mode 2/ Film landscape 3/ Use an app like Filmic Pro so you have control over white balance, exposure and you can see the audio levels 4/ Use an external microphone like the iRig or check out www.lifeisaprayer.com for some really detailed audio information and choices 5/ Use a tripod - please!!!! So to some old favorites. Each week we'll try to bring you a round up of the very best new videos and podcasts out there but to kick us off I've included a couple of my all time great videos. For it's amazing sound track, dolly filming and great opening sequence this mountain biking (I know!!!) video is the business. Even if it does make me feel old for not knowing what 'shreading' means.....Nearly one and a half million views on YouTube can't be wrong. And now for something completely different from the Mast Brothers - it's an advertisement for chocolate but like nothing you've every seen before. Grab a cuppa sit back and enjoy it. The Mast Brothers from The Scout on Vimeo. Now don't tell me that you don't want to pick up a camera right now and try shooting something similar - well either that or have a very large bar of chocolate.
