self.log is our take on the future of mobile video editing. Getting rid of desktop cluttered legacy to favour concise yet functional solutions. Don’t just combine videos, GIFs and text. Instead, capture your clips and commentary right in the app. From the beginning, we’ve focused on fully leveraging the hardware and software capabilities of modern mobile devices. Don’t just zoom with your default camera, harness each and every physical sensor of your phone — even ultra-wide and telephoto ones if you have them. Experience multi-capture with handy predefined layouts like a split-screen or create your own if needed.* Tame background removal in any environment with a raw power of machine learning.* A one-man band, an actor performing a play, an art historian reviewing new exposition, or a traveller commenting on her adventures — with a built-in capture you won’t need to re-shoot a 100 times to sync the track. Leaving you a lot more time for the content creation itself. To enliven your narrative try our intuitive dynamic mode, but that’s not what you are used to: with just a few keyframes and a ton of algorithms behind the curtains you can animate anything from a GIF flying around to a classy transition between the scenes. Whether you are a discerning blogger, a nimble journalist or a layman user, the app has something to surprise you. * — multi-capture requires A12 chip and above (iPhone XS/XR or newer) with iOS 13+. Background removal has the same requirement for now.
