New Iphone short Films



There are so many iPhone films being produced each week that it is hard to keep up with them and to decide which ones that I would like to spotlight here at this iPhone film making site. Lets get right to it and have a look at a few films. This film is foreign and the truth about the iPhone film making movement is that it has become an extremely popular tool used by film makers in developing countries. Dslr cameras are are to come by in many of these countries, but the iphone, particularly the older models such as the 4s are available and can be used to record amazing footage.

Iphone 6 Short Films and Filmmaking

Iphone 6 Short Films, 2015

 Today I would like to share with you a few short films that were shot using an iPhone 6. Like the previous versions of this product the iphone 6 is an amazing digital film making tool. Many film makers are now using the iphone in one model or another to record at least some footage for their films. The first film that I would like to share with you is a comedy. I suggest that you stick around for the punchline.



 Next is a trailer for an iphone 6 short film. I believe that it was edited with the iphone as well.

 

 You may notice that some films look different from others. The quality of the film is in large part due to the skill of the film maker and how much time has been spent preparing for the shoot. Iphone film making is like any other kind of film making. The more work that you put in before you start shooting the better your film will look in the end. There is no secret to great film making. Write a good screenplay, find good actors and light it well. Here are two great tutorials on iphone 6 film making.

Iphone Film Making, A Feature Film

Iphone Film Making, A Feature Film

 The iphone feature film, once believed to be a dream of those who used these smart phone to record short little films, has been a reality for over two years. Not only are micro budget film makers using the iphone as the main recording device of their feature film, but mainstream film makers are taking a serious second look at the device. The trailer that I would like to show you today is for a feature length iphone film. The title of the film is And Uneasy Lies the Mind. It was shot using an iphone 5.

Iphone 6 Short Film and More

The first footage from the iphone 6 has come out and I thought I should touch on this device and the possibilities. The iphone 6 plus maybe the best mobile film making device in the history of the world. 

 What?

 Does that sound a bit far fetched? 

I know it does, but the combination of video quality and ability to edit puts this device in a class all by itself. Sure there are a few Dslr cameras and prosumer camcorders that can deliver slightly better footage none of them can offer the in device editing and uploading ability that this smart phone does. 

Today I would like to show you a few pieces of video. 

The first is a short film that was shot using the iphone 6. 


 

The next thing that I wish to share is some great footage recorded with the iphone 6.

 

Now I would like to share with you the trailer for a feature film that was shoot using the Iphone 5.

Iphone Film Making, Departure

        Iphone film making is now a growing sub culture in the indie film making world. This sub culture has reached around the world. There are film makers in Europe, Asia and South America using these smart phones to make movies. In many third world countries the iphone is being looked upon as the best option for young film makers to chase their cinematic dreams.

    Every few weeks a whole batch of new films are being released to the public. I spend a few hours each week going over footage from iPhone film makers. Like with all types of film making there are different levels of quality. The quality of the film usually equates to the skill and experience of the film maker.

    The film that I would like to highlight today is the ambition iphone project named Departure. This film was shot in three countries USA, France & Belarus.  Also this iphone film was directed by three different directors. The long term plans with this project it to expand it into something like a series that follows events in each country.

Okay here is a look at the film.

Here is a look at the Q & A with the film makers.

Thank you for visiting my blog. If you would like to become a better film maker it begins with the screenplay. Read as many quality scripts and you can online. Study the craft and if you would like a book recommendation then you can check out my book on writing a low budget film script by clicking the image on the right side of the page. Good luck with your future projects and have a nice day.

Iphone Short Films and New Equipment

 Today I would like to show you guys a few award nominated short films that were shot using the iphone 4s and/or iphone 5. During the past year this style of film making is steadily growing in popularity. As always keep in mind that to become a good iphone or smartphone film maker you must first learn the basics of film making. You must spend time learning about lighting and how to capture quality sound. Okay lets look at some footage shot with an iphone 5. This is test footage that has been nominated for awards.

 Next up is a short film that was shot using the iphone 4s. This short is from Japan, I would love to get more footage from Japan since some of the best feature length films are made there each year. The title is A Class Re-union.

   

 The next short is titled A Little More Drama, and it was shot using an Iphone 5.

 Next is a little short film that I like a lot. Maybe because I like sci fi that is idea rather than effect oriented, The Dark Side of The Earth.




 

 The last thing I want you to look at is a new piece of equipment that can be used while film making with the iphone.

Iphone 5 Short and The Iphone as Film making Support

Today I have an iphone 5 short film for you that comes along with a BTS video as well. I wish more film makers who shoot with the iphone would do behind the scene videos because this style of film making is still new and there is not much other there about the subject.


Iphone film makers should look at themselves in the same way that other low budget film makers do. This is a real industry. This is a growing industry and over the next few years will become part of the mainstream film industry. Of course this can only happen if those who are out there in the trenches shooting films are willing to record their experiences. To also write and talk about the tricks and short cuts that they have learned along the way.

I believe that this short film was shot in South Africa. It was shot on the iPhone 5. Following the film will be the behind the scene’s footage.



Next I would like to talk to you about using the iPhone as a way of supporting your overall film. You may shoot your film using a Dslr or a camcorder, but there are scenes where these devices are not the best ones for the job. Your iphone can capture the footage that you need. The film that I am going to show you is a found footage film that was shot using a web cam, iphone and a Gopro. I did a full length interview with the film maker, and you can read that interview by clicking here.. There are problems with shooting a film with the use of multiple devices, but if you do your research before hand, you will be able to overcome the editing and footage problems.

The title of the film is Encounter.



Thank you for visiting my blog. If you would like to learn more about what it takes to be a full time filmmaker then I would suggest checking out my book of interviews with film makers. The book contains a ton of hands on information about low budget film making. You can find it on Amazon by clicking here.
