This state of the art Workshop will be presented by Thomas Bongani Hart and Jonathan Dockney of the The University of Natal South Africa. Cell phone filmmaking (cellphilmmaking) is a fast emerging global phenomenon.
Owing to the convergence of technologies, the cellphone has entered the film industry and become a viable production and consumption medium. Convergence has made possible for people to produce and consume content – presumption.
As a result, in Africa, where almost 50% of people have access to a cell phone, cellphilmmaking offers serious potential for filmmakers. The cell phone poses its own aesthetics. The small screen and camera quality have placed specific restraints on production. Come and learn from the best in the field. Bring your mobile phone and make a movie!
