With the release of Apple’s iPhone 4, the barrier to shooting and editing was broken down and the playing field leveled. No need to beg, borrow or steal. No need to rent an expensive camera and gear, assemble a crew or hire an editor to get your film made. Suddenly, for anybody with a story to tell, there was a powerful and accessible tool with you at all times. The iPhone filmmaker represents the democritization of filmmaking. It’s truly a “film studio in your pocket!”
FSM EXCLUSIVE DEAL The Original iPhone Film online festival event was born to bring this Apple IOS filmmaking community together, to nurture it and to provide a showcase for all the great creativity unleashed with the arrival of these tools.
Winners were selected in several category including: Music Video, Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Brand Film. The OIFF Grand Prize went to Nancy Lee directed by Alen Petkovic.
