All questions / Filming yourself

How do I film myself without anyone holding the phone?

Short answerProp the phone on a stand or tripod, frame the shot, then use a countdown, a hand signal or a remote to start. Do a short test to check your head and feet are in frame.

Music Wide Selfie is built for this: countdowns up to 30 seconds, Hand Signal, and Solo Director, which waits until you’re framed. Guides: filming yourself.
