I still question why so many people find it so difficult to just turn the phone 90 degrees to the side when you film with it. Is it because you think you look like a dork when you film a selfie with two hands? Because that's not why you look like a dork.
Admittedly you would look like a dork if you filmed at a 45 degree angle.
Dutch angle!
Oh wow I didn't know there was a word for this, i love making dutch angle photos
I usually hold my phone horizontally to shoot video, but it definitely is easier to hold it vertically. After all, it was designed to be held vertically.
A lot of the time it's not that people can't or are scared to, they just don't feel the need to because most the video they watch is in vertical format. It's not being filmed for cinema release, it's for phones and tablets.
