The creators of the patented iOgrapher mobile filmmaking case for the iPad have announced that the new iOgrapher for Apple iPad 3 and 4 is available for immediate delivery.
The company says that the iOgrapher for the Apple iPad is the first all purpose mobile filmmaking case for the iPad and iPad Mini, designed and manufactured in the United States. The iOgrapher is constructed from high quality, extremely tough polycarbonate/ABS, and its patented design is for everyone from families with kids, to students, to Indies and professional filmmakers, videographers and mobile journalists.
The iOgrapher’s unique design features two handles on each side of the case, making the iPad mini a hand-held Steadicam-like rig, greatly reducing shaky footage common when shooting video with mobile devices. The iOgrapher is also designed to enable consumers and filmmakers alike to easily add 37mm lenses to its lens mount area for wide angles, fisheye looks, or to capture macro or close up shots. Users can attach lighting and audio gear to its three accessory shoes on the top of the case. The bottom of the case is designed to allow mounting the iPad Mini to any standard tripod, monopod, or portable dolly.
Created by high-school media arts teacher and filmmaker, Dave Basulto, the iOgrapher was inspired by young filmmakers, who he wanted to empower with the ability to shoot and edit video, take stills and stream video live, all from an inexpensive, accessible device.
The iOgrapher team is also creating an online film community filled with tutorials on using the iOgrapher and iOS devices.
iOgrapher also provides recommendations for third party accessories, such as lighting kits, sound kits, lenses and mounting options with links to where to best find and purchase them. Users will also find helpful tips on the best apps available for shooting, editing, adding effects and sharing their videos online. All recommendations are based on Basulto’s personal, hands on experience as a professional filmmaker and teacher.
The iOgrapher for the iPad for the iPad 3 and 4 is available immediately and is priced at $70. The iOgrapher for the iPad Mini is also available immediately and is priced at $65.
