Film Review: Apple of My Eye (2010)

I reported last week about a commercial being shot on the iPhone 4, but a team of film-makers at Majek Pictures have shot and edited a film, entirely on the iPhone 4, and get this, they did it in 48 hours.

Watch, The Apple of My Eye: An iPhone 4 Film, by clicking here (Also check out the behind the scenes.)

Now, my thoughts on the film:

It has some beautiful shots, thumbs up to director and lead cinematographer, Michael Koerbel. I can see Koerbel, with his team at Majek, really pushing the boundaries of what this camera can do, and I think that’s the key here.

The score, composed by Corey Wallace, is a great piece of music, but was not produced on the iPhone, and I think that’s what’s coming next.

Blue Microphones, a leader in microphone innovation, and my brand of choice, already has a wonderful selection of iPod/iPhone microphones, and I know there are already a few audio production apps (I’m not aware of the amount of power iMovie for iPhone has with audio.)

The important thing to consider, when setting out to make an iPhone film, is that iMovie for iPhone is not for special effects, and is rather limited in such things, it is not the most powerful software (Duh, it’s on a cell phone.)

Thumbs up for the film, check it out!
