How does this method work?
The phone may be enough to start some production and communication work; It may not be enough to complete every professional job comfortably. Shooting a short vertical video for a local business, preparing product photography or supporting appointment tracking are concrete examples. Question the economic sources of applications that constantly promise high income by pressing the screen, watching ads or recruiting others.
Evaluation with a concrete example
Calculating shooting time only for creating three short product videos for a cafe. Transportation, lighting preparation, editing, subtitling, file transfer and editing are also part of the job. Consider in advance how delivery will take if phone storage is full or internet slows down. Demonstrate image, sound and text legibility by taking a sample shot with an object you can access.
Your first application: what should you have?
Choose one delivery that you can complete over the phone and rehearse it thoroughly. Export the file to the size the customer will use; Don't mix work files with your personal photos. Switch to a paid app only when you see a real limit to your free work flow. Let the first output be three sample videos and a table of time spent from shooting to delivery.
