Groundbreaking mobile journalist Philip Bromwell shot “Pipe Dreams” in 2015 using an iPhone 6+. By today’s standards that phone is ancient technology. Nevertheless, Bromwell filled the 2-minute RTÉ News report about the making of Uilleann Pipes with more than a score of cinematic images. This classic mobile video demonstrates that the filmmaker is more important than the equipment.
