In this episode 129 I share the story of why indie filmmakers are embracing smartphone filmmaking and why mobile filmmakers should acknowledge where we are today.
Some things I talk about:
Distribution potential for your feature film shot with a smartphone
Independent filmmaking versus mobile filmmaking
Why the accessibility to the camera is what distinguishes traditional from mobile
The media attention famous directors receive make mobile films
Standing out with a mobile film may get you media attention
Smartphone filmmakers underestimate the value of mobile filmmaking
