iPhone Developers converge at SuperMeet

Don’t forget, the San Francisco SuperMeet is this Friday.  The main event begins at 7pm, but the Digital Showcase starts up at 3:30pm.  The Showcase is a mini-expo, where product developers show off their latest gizmos. You can try stuff out, ask questions, and meet the developers.

Need another reason to make the trip?  HHH will have its very own table at the Showcase, and we’ve got some awesome iPhone developers joining us, including:

Cinemek, the makers of Cimemek Storyboard Composer

Chemical Wedding, makers of Artemis Director’s Viewfinder and Helios

Pureblend Softare, makers of Movie*Slate

OWLE, the makers of the OWLE Bubo iPhone camera grip

If you’re in the bay area, come meet these awesome developers, and then stick around for the SuperMeet! We’re pretty sure tickets are still available. You can read more about the event on HHH, or by checking out the SuperMeet website.

Dear iPhone fanatics and filmmaking friends, This will be the final post for Hand Held Hollywood. To loyal HHH readers, I’m sure this feels somewhat overdue. Probably because it is.

Shang-Chi Director Directed From His iPhone

Taz Goldstein September 9, 2021

I enjoyed reading this brief ScreenRant story, so I thought I’d share it here. It describes how Destin Daniel Cretton, the director of Marvel’s Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings, was forced to direct an important scene via his iPhone while in the hospital for the birth of his child! Sadly, it doesn’t divulge the details of that unusual workflow, but it’s an excellent reminder that we’re all toting the world’s most versatile piece of filmmaking gear in our pockets and purses!
