New Music Video Shot Entirely on iPhone

by Warren Riddle on July 8, 2009 at 07:31 AM


Apple's iPhone, with its seemingly infinite apps and functions, has inspired a multitude of innovative ideas and uses. Pre-teen iPhone wunderkinds in Singapore (Doodle Kids) and the United States (Math Time) have developed impressive and popular apps.

Now that the iPhone 3GS possesses video capabilities, it shouldn't be a surprise that an enterprising company recently decided to film a music video completely with an iPhone. Using only the iPhone and a homemade steadying device (to eliminate jerky movements and shaky closeups), Showdown Productions, LLC created a 2:30 minute video for the band BJSR, according to PSFK.

The surprisingly professional quality, the easy on-the-go Macbook editing (according to Showdown spokesman Kyle Brock), and the iPhone's size and weight should lead to more music videos, especially for indie and unsigned bands. Once Apple upgrades the iPhone's audio capabilities and battery life, digital shorts and full-length films should be just around the corner. [From: Wired via PSFK]
