Filmmaking Techniques with Lizzie Peirce

Filmmaking Techniques with Lizzie Peirce — Turn Travel Clips Into Cinematic B-Roll

The gist: A gear-and-motion focused course that takes your travel footage from "phone video" to intentional cinematography, without needing a full crew.

• Technique-first curriculum: covers tripod work for establishing shots, gimbal use for smooth handheld movement, and slider work for subtle motion/timelapses.
• Drone segment: shows how to use drone footage to add drama and set the scene — directly useful for landscape and city-arrival shots.
• Solo-creator friendly: instructor Lizzie Peirce works as a one-person producer/director/cinematographer, so techniques are built for shooting alone on the road.
• Composition + motion combined: pairs equipment choices with composition principles rather than teaching them separately.

Per Moment's own course page, Lizzie breaks down when and how to use each piece of gear — tripod, gimbal, drone, and slider — to turn an idea into a finished shot.

Best for: travel creators who already own basic gear and want to shoot more deliberately instead of just pointing and filming. Skip it if: you don't yet own a gimbal, slider, or drone — the techniques assume access to that gear. Runs ~$9 — check the current price before buying.
