Hi, I’m Paul Rogers from thatcreativeceo. Love this question.
From the content you’ve seen, here are some of the core tools used to get that cinematic look:
- Cameras: Sony FX3, Sony FX6, Sony A7RV, iPhone (yes, with good lighting and composition it can look great)
- Lenses: 35mm GM, Tamron 17–28mm f/2.8
- Audio: Shure SM7B, Sennheiser ME64 boom mic
- Workflow: Dedicated editing workstation for 4K projects (strong computer, color-accurate monitor, fast external SSDs)
Want me to break down a budget-friendly starter kit based on what you already own?
