Olive Aims To Be The First Feature-Length Smartphone-Shot Film In Theaters
What's former Facebook CTO Chris Kelly doing post-Democratic Attorney General run? Why backing a feature length film shot on a smartphone of course! The film, called Olive, went up on Kickstarter today and was shot entirely using a Nokia N8 phone and a specially crafted 35mm lense.Director Hooman Khalili tells me that what differentiates Olive from other films that have tried the whole "movie shot on a smartphone" gimmick -- like The Wrong Ferrari -- is that he actually intends to show the film in theatres. Khalili even wants to submit it for Oscar consideration -- which would be a first for a smartphone-shot film .
