In the four years since the Dublin Smartphone Film Festival started, mobile phone cameras have improved immeasurably and so has the quality of films made on them.
What was once a scrappy and cheap upstart is now a mainstream means of filmmaking with high-end commercials, music videos and even astarted the festival seven years ago when he heard traditional filmmakers complain about the use of mobile phones instead of dedicated cameras to make films. “Film is the only art form where you are judged on the cost of the equipment you have. You wouldn’t judge a painter by the price of his paint brushes.”
Last year’s festival was screened in the Teeling Distillery in Dublin. This year’s festival has migrated online because of the Covid-19 pandemic.“We didn’t want to not do it. Last year we thought the whole Covid thing would have blown over,” he explained.
