Find out how they overcame the disadvantages of smartphone (or mobile) filmmaking and made the most of the many advantages. «The best camera is the one you have with you.» (Chase Jarvis) Stepping into the space once occupied by 8mm and 16mm film cameras, mobile (mainly smartphone) cameras can provide the easy-access, first-steps learning opportunity for aspiring filmmakers. They can also provide a liberating, low-cost alternative to elusive big budgets and big crews for more experienced filmmakers wanting to finally get that «unproducable» pet script into production. Sean Baker had completed four feature films before he shot «Tangerine» on an iPhone 5s. Steven Soderbergh had made multi-million dollar features and won an Academy Award (amongst a long list of other awards) before he made his most recent feature («Unsane») with an iPhone 7s. Our panel of filmmakers have all successfully produced films using mobile devices, with small crews and minimal resources. Don’t let funding be the obstacle to begin (or continue) your filmmaking journey. Get insight and inspiration and learn how to unblock your filmmaker imagination.
