Gimbal Film-making Complete Guide MasterClass

Balance your Ronin by connecting via the app, running tests on a surface to align pitch and roll, and using auto tune with presets (low to high) to calibrate pan.

Master the orbit shot, a parallax move circling a central subject or signage with a gimbal, using steady, natural motion at 24 fps plus 60–120 fps slow motion options.

Master the flashlight technique for the Ronan S gimbal, using low-angle shots, trigger control, and peeking on the flip-out screen to maintain focus while walking through crowds.

Learn field filming techniques for busy night markets. Use an articulating screen to monitor focus from above the crowd, and try backwards selfie mode to stay out of the shot.

Set up a motion lapse with a ronin and camera by planning a two-point path in the ronin app, then set interval and content duration before starting.

Add a third point to a motion lapse using the blue icon and joystick, preview with the play button, delete points as needed, and try night shoots in a cafe.

Master hyperlapse by walking with a camera to capture a fast moving time lapse, using a one second interval and stabilizing on a gimbal for about ten minutes.

Explore a hyperlapse example in gimbal film-making within this MasterClass designed for aspiring filmmakers seeking guidance.
