I shoot video almost every day with my iPhone, cut it up with iMove mobile, and it winds up here if I'm happy with it. Enjoy.

iMovie mobile will change the face of the Earth



(just a note about this first piece: shot this in less than 3 minutes, slapped it together in imovie and uploaded it from the iPhone4 to see what kind of quality it would yield. Obviously, there is a huge amount of compression taking place when the phone sends it to Youtube. That's a bummer. Also, I have concluded that the '720' characteristic of this video is not actual. I believe that the video is captured as 480p (720x405) and then just blown up to 720p. When I opened the video in QT player, it looks great in 480 (720x405) but is pretty compressed and lossy in 720p. Either way, the video I can extract from the phone via iPhoto is much better than what the phone sends to Youtube, so I will be working on a slicker way to get a better quality video hosted to the blog ASAP.)

But I digress:
The ability to actually shoot edit and upload all from a 2x4 inch computer that fits in my pocket, running Apple's system and software - this is just about the coolest thing ever. Who's taking bets on when the first feature film entirely produced on an iPhone will be announced? I say before the end of the year...
