SBP Podcast Mobile Filmmaking

In episode 152 we bring back Brionne Olsen in South Africa. Brionne is a sound engineer, filmmaker and storyteller. He’s been inspired to create smartphone videos and films since 2020.
Brionne made a short film this year with the Elements Of Moment Dance Studio. The film is a beautiful dance performance choreographed by Ashley-Jade Miranda. Brionne asked for a performance that expressed women empowered through movement. 
He used his iPhone 11, an anamorphic lens, a gimbal and two lights. The film used mostly natural light in the studio and ambient sound captured on the phone, which he later mixed  the audio and video in DaVinci Resolve. If you're in South Africa reach out to collaborate on his upcoming film.

Filmmaking is storytelling, and music can bring your story to the next level. Jason Rivera has been writing and making music since he was four years old. In episode 149, Jason is going to share valuable insights into his world of music from the perspective of a storyteller. 
We have a fascinating discussion about the importance of film directors to work think about the film score and bring a good music composer into the process before the film is in production.
