How to Take Perfect Selfies and Videos with a Selfie Stick

A good selfie stick is more than just a tool. It is your travel partner, vlogging helper, and mini filming rig.

Whether you’re filming a trip, daily life, or social media content, the right selfie stick keeps your footage steady.
It helps you shoot smooth, professional videos anywhere.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to get the best results with ROODTUO’s selfie sticks.
The lineup includes S7, S02-PLUS, SDT Series, and SF-PRO.
Each one suits a different creator and style.

1. Set Up Your Selfie Stick Correctly

Before filming, make sure your selfie stick is ready and secure.
Adjust the phone holder so it fits your phone tightly, then lock it in place to prevent movement.

All ROODTUO selfie sticks include a Bluetooth remote.
Pair the remote with your phone before you start shooting.
It keeps your framing steady and prevents accidental shakes.

Each model also includes a built-in tripod.
Spread the legs evenly on flat ground for better balance and stability.

2. Control Your Lighting

Lighting can make or break your shot.
Good lighting enhances skin tones, colors, and details.

Face a light source, like a window or the sun, for natural brightness.
Avoid standing with the light behind you, as that will cause dark silhouettes.

When shooting indoors or at night, use the S02-PLUS.
It comes with a detachable fill light that brightens your face evenly.
This gives soft, natural lighting even in dim environments.

3. Pick the Right Model for Your Needs

Every ROODTUO selfie stick is built for a different purpose:

If you prefer simple and portable, choose S7.
If you film often in dark places, pick S02-PLUS.
For travelers, the SDT Series folds neatly into one piece.
If you’re creating cinematic videos, go for SF-PRO with its rotating handle.

4. Find the Perfect Angle

Angles can completely change how your photo feels. Hold your selfie stick slightly above eye level for a flattering look. Tilt it down a little to make your face appear slimmer.

For group shots, extend your stick fully. The SDT-MAX works best for this. Keep your phone level for balanced scenery. For creative shots, lower the stick slightly and tilt upward.

The SF-PRO’s 360° handle helps you pan smoothly and capture cinematic horizontal motion.

5. Keep It Steady

Shaky footage can ruin even the best scene.
Hold your selfie stick close to your body to reduce movement.
Keep your elbows tucked in for extra balance.

All ROODTUO models include a tripod base.
Use tripod mode when filming time-lapses, product demos, or group videos.
Press the Bluetooth remote instead of touching your screen to avoid vibration.

6. Try Different Shot Styles

Experiment with different shot types to make your footage stand out.

• Overhead shots: Extend your selfie stick upward for a bird’s-eye view of the scene.

• Low-angle shots: Hold the stick near the ground and tilt it upward for a dramatic look.

• Tracking shots: Use SF-PRO or S7 while walking to record steady motion.

• Static tripod shots: Set S02-PLUS or SDT Series on the tripod and film hands-free.

The SF-PRO’s rotating handle allows cinematic pans that feel smooth and natural.

7. Review and Edit Before Sharing

After shooting, take a few minutes to review your clips.
Check focus, framing, and lighting — small details matter.

Use VSCO or Snapseed to edit photos.
For videos, try CapCut or Premiere Rush to trim and stabilize.
Keep your clips short and clean — around 10 to 20 seconds for best engagement.
