Shoot it on a cellphone (mobile phone) - the rise of Mobile Screenfest in Australia

Mobilicious movie-goers,
Mobile Screenfest is not just an event. It is really latching on to a phenomenon that is getting bigger and bigger, shooting stuff on your mobile phone, and that is why it will be a huge success. I think the only thing stopping people from sending their videos of themselves, shot -on-mobile on a daily basis is 1. cost 2. embarrassment of having no make-up on or looking like shit in the morning. Costs of sending MMS' will come down, and people will become less embarassed about looking like crap as there is so much more wasteful material on the internet these days , so really - who cares??!!!

Although there is little I can advise about getting rid of morning drool apart from - "Go get cleaned up, you stinker ", here's a few pieces of advice from the Araya Pictures team on shooting on a mobile (the cheap and easy way to get famous!). Here's a few tips on shooting a photo on your mobile :

•Make sure you check and understand the resolution and quality of your phone, remember every phone is different.
•Get close to your subject. Make sure your fill up view finder.
•Light the area and subject really well. The more light the better the image will look. If you don't have natural light, make sure you use artificial light.
•Keep still. Made sound easy, but make sure you steady your camera phone.
•Try not and use your zoom. This can potentially reduce the quality of the image being taken. This can effect it even more when you go to edit your image later.
