Here are eleven\u00a0of the best iPhone apps for filmmakers<\/strong>. These awesome iPhone apps\u00a0can help you with all aspects of filmmaking, from pre-production to production to post<\/strong>. Just be sure to keep your phone on silent once the director calls action<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

\u00a01.\u00a0theGripApp<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

TheGripApp<\/strong>\u00a0is basically your pocket guide to being an on-set grip. It includes a complete database of every dolly, knot and clamp with pictures, diagrams and specifics on how they\u2019re used<\/strong>. The filmmaking app is perfect for beginners looking to learn or seasoned pros to use as reference.<\/p>\n

2. ShotList<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

ShotList<\/strong> is exactly what it sounds like. It\u2019s a digital way to manage, view and edit<\/strong> your shot list on your iPhone. The filmmaking app\u00a0also allows you to add photos and manage a storyboard<\/strong> as well.<\/p>\n

3. Green Screener<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

This handy app works similar to a light meter<\/strong> for lighting an even key. While not a complete replacement for a light meter and good eye, the app\u00a0helps by breaking down color variables to show you different color levels.<\/strong><\/p>\n

4. MatchLens<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

MatchLens<\/strong> is a nifty little filmmaking app for iPhone that allows you to match the same field of view between cameras and lenses<\/strong>. It\u2019s most useful when planning to match location scout photos or footage<\/strong> to your production camera for focal lengths and fields of view.<\/strong><\/p>\n

5. 3D ST<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Shooting 3D footage<\/strong> is no easy task. Luckily apps like 3D ST<\/strong> exist to help with depth of field<\/strong>, parallax<\/strong> and convergence<\/strong> calculations for stereoscopic 3D. The app\u00a0also includes a detailed glossary<\/strong> of terms and information when trying to navigate in the third dimension<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

6. Artemis Directors Viewfinder<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Have trouble visualizing what your shot would look like through different lenses? Of course you do.\u00a0Everyone does<\/strong>. This filmmaking app for iPhone lets you take a photo with your iPhone<\/strong> and view overlays that show the difference between different fields of view<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

7. DSLR Filmmaker Toolkit<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The DSLR Filmmaker Toolkit<\/strong> is several useful apps rolled into one. The app\u00a0has a leveler<\/strong>, slate<\/strong>, shot log<\/strong>, viewfinder<\/strong>, depth-of-field calculator<\/strong> and sunrise\/sunset table<\/strong>. Pretty neat. Very helpful.<\/p>\n

8. AJA DataCalc<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The DataCalc<\/strong> computes storage requirements for your video files<\/strong>. The filmmaking app\u00a0works with pretty much all of the industry formats and compression methods<\/strong>. You can also use the app to calculate time results in a variety of formats as well.<\/p>\n

9. Cinema Forms<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Cinema Forms<\/strong> is a producer’s dream. The iPhone app is\u00a0a paperless (obviously) compilation of any and every form you\u2019ll ever need<\/strong> from pre-production through post. You can work on the forms interactively through the app or share as a PDF through Dropbox or email.<\/strong><\/p>\n

10. Kodak Cinema Tools<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Kodak\u2019s<\/strong> grab bag of filmmaking tools is sweet haul of practical gadgets. The pack has your standard depth of field and sunrise\/sunset calculators<\/strong> along with some nifty Kodak-specific info tools<\/strong> for their products and film stocks.<\/p>\n

11. Celtx Shots<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Celtx Shots<\/strong>, which syncs up with your online Celtx Studio<\/a><\/strong>, gives your iPhone access to their full array of script and storyboard setups \u2014<\/strong>\u00a0including camera blocking schematics<\/strong>, lighting\/set setups<\/strong> and an animatic built-in storyboard player<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
