Don't always trade your phones in. I think one of the more underrated things that people don't consider when they're making content is having two phones. One phone really just for content and one phone to use as a phone. But on top of that, I use the Blackmagic app, and as you can see, I can watch myself, I can set my shots up, I can see what looks good, I can tell where my volume is, and I'm not missing anything. And I could just put this guy down to the side and be like, what happening? What up though? It's your homie CL Palmer, AKA CZ Pye Gang, and I am back again once again. See how easy that is? I highly recommend a 13 Pro or up. If you got one, I would keep it. I would keep one. Having two iPhone Pros is by far one of the biggest advantages you could have as a content creator. This is how you work by yourself and make yourself look good.
