Collaborative films
The nine winners from Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore and Vietnam were invited to a workshop in Wellington where they spent three days collaborating on a smartphone short film on ecotourism.
In addition they worked on a nature conservation project with “Ngā Uruora” to offset some of the carbon emissions of their flights. This led to the creation of a further short film.
Mobile Filmmaking + MINA
Sean Baker’s Tangerine could be referred to as the first smartphone film that toured all major international film festivals, including a premiere at Sundance Film Festival (2015) and then was showcased at San Francisco, Seattle and Sydney film festivals among others.
