FiLMiC has released its Remote for compatible Android devices, allowing them to control remote cameras wirelessly, plus monitor the action.                                                          

The company promises a "complete studio experience" when paired up with FiLMiC Pro, its cinema camera app for mobile devices.

FiLMiC Remote has been available for iOS for a little while now, and with the release for supported Android devices, mobile filmmakers have a full package of apps capable of pro-level film and video production.

Here are a few of the key features found in FiLMiC Remote for Android:

• Control Mode: Wirelessly control cameras on jibs, sliders, etc., with ease.
• Monitor Mode: Watch the action unfold on your Android device during filming, including waveform monitors, histograms, video preview, and vectorscopes.
• Director Mode: A clean preview for the director and crew to monitor remotely.

In addition, if you have multiple devices set up running FiLMiC Pro, Remote can be set to preview only, while the cinematographer and camera ops handle the filming.
