    @MargoRoseFerderer The crew and actors were all fantastic people which made the shoot even better.

    That’s what I’m talking about! :)

    Think about it. You can now make a movie with a phone. And it won’t look like some small, under-saturated, over-compressed, poor frame rate crap anymore. The world has come pretty far from the days of VHS camcorders.

    @RichardCamellion From what I have seen so far, The Commuter will look amazing.

    @Pjiggy shut up you ignorant fucker. i like nokia.

    do better on my phone? better than what?

    the acting and story has nothing to do with any phone at all.

    i suggest you find a brain before you speak again

    @mkr10001
    Found one! you’re a moron! The idea for the short film seems very cool. Nice little story. You hate but what have you written? Where’s your reel? Show something instead of running your mouth! You know what they say about critics, bashing stuff you can’t yourself do. What a loser you are!

    @Pjiggy wtf?? It isn’t a competition. And how do you know what I have written? DO you know who I am?
    NO. so how do you know I haven’t written anything. How do you know I didn’t write your favourite Tv show?

    So you’re pretty much talking out your arsehole.

    Have a nice day

    @mkr10001
    Because I don’t watch reality tv and that’s only crap someone like you could write! If it isn’t a competition then don’t go bad mouthing other people’s work! Do your own work.

    @mkr10001
    If you really think reality TV doesn’t have scripted events then you are a bigger moron than i thought! And you’re the dick head! That’s why I even got involved in the beginning because you were being a dick head to someone else!

    You need all that equipment to make it decent? And it isn’t even the stock microphone. Pfft, don’t see why anyone would want to make a movie using a phone, get a proper camera.

    What was used to colour correct and upscale it?

    I wanted to see the N8 and the steadicam in more detail…

    Was the video transmitted in real time to that screen the director (or whoever) is watching?

    Great work! The picture quality was decent. Directing, writing, lighting, actors, stunts all were well done. Of course that’s the true tallent, more important than just the camera . I hope that others are inspired by this!

    Hey Nokia – interesting stuff – what was the reason for using the heavy steadicam setup, instead of e.g. the steadicam Smoothie, which is designed for mobile phones?
