Remember the kid shooting on his iPad?
Theres something about every time it cuts to his iPad footage I got more interested.
I thought, Why isnt anyone doing a whole film like this yet?
He was sure that he could pull off shooting the movie with the phone.
In total, he used three iPhones but never used it simultaneously.
While the FiLMiC Pro app costs $7.99, the Moondog lens adapters range from $160-$175.
However, the crane shots in the film are possibly the most impressive part of the cinematography.
Giant crane rigs used on traditional movie sets that costs thousands of dollars were used to pull this off.
Baker was reluctant about promoting how Tangerine was shot, even though shooting with the phone was a success.
We didnt want people to have any preconceived notions about how it would look, he said.
However, following the premiere screening, Baker was aware that he had to disclose how they shot it.
He became the poster child of the future of low budget filmmaking overnight.
Its starting to get crazy, Baker admits.
Im getting way too many Facebook messages and Twitter DMs from people asking how I made the movie.
I just dont have the time to answer all of them.
Even Apple has welcomed the film.
Others, not so much.
I was like no, youre not.
I went to Sundance thinking we would be one of many films shot on a phone, he said.
But a lot of people are starting to use it for features and shots.
And a lot have been used for commercials already.
Tangerine opens in theaters on Friday.
