When high school film and media teacher David Basulto didn\u2019t have enough cameras for students, he improvised and let them use their iPhones and iPads to film their projects. The work had great potential, but the images were shaky and the audio and lighting were horrible. <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Basulto, a former Hollywood actor, filmmaker and producer, began to craft the idea of a stabilizing case that would hold an iPad or iPhone. With a 3D print design and the help of an engineer, iOgrapher was born.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>The Product<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The iOgrapher Filmmaking Case has handles on both sides for smooth handheld filming. It mounts to any standard tripod and allows room for a microphone, external lights and lenses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amelia Neverman, Director of Sales at iOgrapher, says film crews at news stations <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">among other professionals <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> use the case on the job. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOur filmmaking case is innovative, new and affordable,\u201d she said. \u201cYou can get a bundle for your school and start a TV station for $200 or less. You can get a good quality mic for $50 and do on-the-go shooting and live streaming. You can get people learning how to do filming on the go and edit now on your phone, starting from the beginning and putting it out into the world all in one day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iOgrapher began with one product for the iPad Mini and now has 20 products, including filmmaking cases for a range of iPhones and iPads, travel cases, mounts and other accessories. And, rounding out their offerings, they also re-sell 100 related products from other vendors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having grown to this degree in just three years, there were bound to be some hiccups along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Growing Pains<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe\u2019re a very small team,\u201d Neverman said. \u201cThere has been a lot of trial and error and we have had a lot of growing pains for sure. Learning about logistics, shipping, timelines and all of that was critical. (Before finding DCL Logistics) we were working with an online fulfillment center and had a lot of problems. As we were growing and things were getting a lot busier, the fulfillment center was sending other vendors\u2019 products to our clients. One time they shipped adult items to a school and another time they sent medical devices.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The team at iOgrapher knew it was time to switch to a company that could keep up with the demand and so they started working with DCL Logistics around the holiday season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe previous company wasn\u2019t up to our standards, \u201c Neverman said. \u201cDCL did a great job of getting all of our products into the right hands. It was stressful to make the switch during the holidays but it was a successful holiday season. We really appreciated being able to contact someone directly <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">instead of getting the runaround like we had with the other fulfillment company.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Future Plans<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iOgrapher currently has plans to create a universal filmmaking case for all versions of iPhone, as well as one that accommodates Android phones. Meanwhile Basulto continues to teach. However, these days he teaches customers smartphone filmmaking tricks, and various ways to use iOgrapher products, via social media and the company blog. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more about iOgrapher, and find their products, at <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/Users\/michaelbrumm\/Local Sites\/dclcorp-phase-2-launch\/app\/public.iographer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">http:\/\/Users\/michaelbrumm\/Local Sites\/dclcorp-phase-2-launch\/app\/public.iographer.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Due to high resolution smartphone cameras and DSLR cameras with HD filming capabilities, filmmaking is now more accessible than ever.
