About this app

Filmic Legacy is available only to filmmakers who paid for Filmic Pro v6 before the 25th of August, 2022. It will continue to receive bug fixes but will not receive any new features.

Filmic Legacy (previously FiLMiC Pro v6) features cutting-edge capabilities and a responsive manual filming experience.

FiLMiC Pro has been used in more high profile video projects by award winning directors than any other app:

A Good Night - John Legend music video
Unsane & High Flying Bird - Steven Soderbergh
Tangerine - Sean Baker
Lose You to Love Me - Selena Gomez music video
Stupid Love - Lady Gaga

FiLMiC Pro provides filmmakers, newscasters, teachers, vloggers, and artists with the capability to shoot in a true LOG gamma curve. LOG V2/V3 allows for greater tonal range and flexibility in post production by expanding dynamic range and setting compatible Android device capabilities on par with traditional camera systems costing thousands more.

FiLMiC Pro also offers a range of cinematic film looks that can be applied in-camera at time of capture to deliver a truly cinematic aesthetic without the need for timely grading in post.

I don't know if others are experiencing this but the app does not open the UI unless it is connected to the Internet. otherwise if it is not it states to "check your connection". Was an inconvenient discovery on a hike I was trying to record. Hopefully gets fixed soon so that I can resume recording in times I have no access to the Internet. Works fine when it is online.

After a very frustrating process of getting the app running (and trying to follow advice that didn't work), the I've got it going, and it seems to be working well. It feels like Filmic is simply hedging their bets, and hoping that the backlash against the subscription model wears off over time. But it's sad to see their ratings so low - they clearly didn't handle the transition well. It's a good app when it works.

One month or so after I purchased this app for two of my devices, they issued a totally new app with subscription program instead of one time payment. This is not the issue though, the issue is the legacy app started not to work properly on one device and not working at all on the other one!! I'm 100 percent sure its not a coincidence! It's a way to force people to move to subscription program. It's so bad when a good business became this much greedy and through their customers like that.
