Mobile ﬁlms…Pocket Cinema… Very Small Screens

Shoot the Summer (Hugh Garry)

Fear Thy Not – Sophie Sherman

“The Keitai Aesthetic emphasises the importance of location…mobile devices make the mundane interesting, the everydayconfronted… the sense of intimate connectedness to themessage, it’s subject and the author” (Max Schlesser, 2008)

Personal Jesus - Yaroslav Dimont

“I first discovered the mobile phone camera as a creative tool quite byaccident when I was taking a video of my nephews playing on swings in a parkand the sun happened to be slowly setting in the background. When I laterviewed the videos on a computer I noticed that there were many appealing"quirks" in the way that the camera dealt with things like sudden changes inlight and sudden movement. I guess in a sense I just found the way it dealtwith "errors" aesthetically appealing. Also it seemed to pixelate things in a waywhich was reminiscent of old Super 8 film; somehow the digital noise wasdistorted in a way that was unpredictable and inspiring.” (Tim Bruniges, visual artist and filmmaker)
