We’re told by people who work in sausage factories, “You don’t want to see how it’s done.” The process is—how shall we see—not pretty. On the other hand, going behind the scenes of movie making is usually entertaining. That’s definitely the case with Sy Horrocks’ “How an iPhone Film Shocked the Movie World.” But this 21-minute BTS provides more than just fun. It’s a compact lesson in practical filmmaking. Anyone thinking about making a mobile-shot feature will find plenty of tips and inspiration in this remarkable documentary.
