I know it can be tough to shop for the filmmaker in your life. But there are some really great resources to finding the perfect gift. You can always go with something like an Amazon Gift Card but I’m sure, now that you’re here, you’ll find something PERFECT for your loved one. I’ve put together a gift guide that will help people with all types of budgets shop for a truly thoughtful present.
Gift ideas for Filmmakers
Sun Surveyor ($9.99)
This is the best app for knowing where the sun will be which for filmmakers is extremely important! If you go into the App Store, hit the share icon, then click “gift app”, you can email this app fully loaded to your loved one.
Batteries ($35.99)
Find out what camera they have because there are a bunch of different kinds. You can always take a guess and give them a gift receipt too. The battery linked is just a general battery that fits a lot of cameras but again, try to find out which camera they have specifically.
C-Stand ($120) / Sand Bags ($22)
Although it may seem boring, your filmmaker friend will appreciate this gift very much! I put these two items together because they do typically go hand in hand. You can definitely go for one over the other though!
Beastgrip Pro ($139.99)
If your loved one appreciates their iPhone’s camera, this accessory is sure to please! I’ve worked with the Beastgrip Pro and Beast Cage personally and have loved my experience. It’s a high-end product for a very reasonable price and you’ll also want to look into some more accessories like lenses and ND filters that they offer.
Pelican Case ($245)
They come in various shapes and sizes but they are the most durable way to carry around all sorts of camera gear, mainly cameras and lenses.
Really any of these gifts would show just how much thought you put into your loved one. No matter the budget, they will see how much you care for them by going to these lengths to find something they will love. Happy holidays and let us know how they love their gift!
