One little hint about video orientation. The orientation of the phone when you actually start the video determines the orientation of the video itself. That is, if you start off with your phone held vertically and start the video, no matter if you re-orient the phone to landscape the entire video will be in portrait mode. This may sound very simplistic but it drove me nuts for a long time until an Apple tech explained this to me. So, you can't start the video holding your phone in portrait mode, and then think oh I'll switch to landscape mode. That won't work, and your video will be in portrait mode. Good luck
