Here’s an interesting little thing that has cropped up- The Original iPhone Film Festival. It has all of the trappings of a film festival, but there is a catch- the videos submitted for judgment must be filmed with an iPhone, iPod touch, or an iPad 2. Editing can take place on a computer.
As of now until January 26th, you can view and vote on your favorite video. The winner will be announced on January 26th at the MacWorld Expo. There were a whole range of prizes to be won, from items such as iPad 2s to Apple TVs to subscriptions to MacWorld.
This really is one of those fun original contests, held within the Apple community. As of this late date in the contest, internal judges have narrowed the video entries to the top three in each category (re: fiction, non-fiction, music video, etc). From there it is up to the public to vote on the winner.
Personally, I liked the music video called Vessel, wherein the video continues to go in and out of iPhone screens creating a picture-in-picture effect. Clipped wings is a cute entry involving a plush Angry Bird, while Jim Beam is a saltier, moodier entry in “Brand Film” category. All of them are worthy runners up, but it will be up to us to decide a winner.
