Set up on ARRI’s website, this pro video app questionnaire aims to understand the pro smartphone filmmaking workflows of working professionals. It also seems to be focusing on higher-end pros that work as DPs, 1st ACs, DITs, Camera Operators, and other miscellaneous filmmakers.

The goal of the survey is to directly inform the potential development of professional-grade applications that bring ARRI's renowned image science, exposure discipline, and metadata workflows to mobile capture. ARRI further shares that the company is looking to get input from its customers that will help directly shape which features, workflows, and tools ARRI prioritizes in development.

This is a pretty significant opportunity to influence a professional mobile capture tool built by a company that understands cinema imaging better than anyone. So, if anything, it should be kind of exciting and fun to fill out.

How to Respond

To let ARRI know how you feel about pro smartphone workflows, all you have to do is fill out the survey on the company’s website here. ARRI further shares that once you fill out the form, it will not automatically collect your details, like name and email address, unless you provide them yourself.

So you can decide how much info you want to share along with your thoughts and opinions.
