Despite the odious nature of the film's subject, the fact that is demonstrates that any of us can make a feature length film with an Apple iPhone with a minimal expenditure of extra equipment. The Moondog 1.33X Anamorphic adaptor for the iPhone 5/5s, which were developed with crowd sourced funding,

have brought some special abilities to the iPhone 5S for the ridiculously low price of $160 and later to be available for the iPhone 6/6plus for $175 (Sorry Android users), and the Filmic Pro App software they used to make their film is available in the Apple App store for a mere $8, means that pro feature filmmaking is within the reach of everyone. That takes care of the equipment. . . you need to provide a REALY CONSERVATIVE SCRIPT and the talent. — Swordmaker

And at least the movie title isn’t something like “Angels in America”. No spam, no foul. I guess.

Sundance feature film "Tangerine", one of the most talked about films at Sundance, was made entirely on an iPhone 5S using a $160 crowd sourced 1.33X anamorphic lens system from Moondog and the $8 Filmic Pro App! Although I despise the film's subject matter, I applaud the fact that the method opens up the ability of all of us (if we have the talent) to be able to make full length feature films with our Apple equipment! — PING!

I’m in the business. Anyone could draw stick figures on a flip book as long as it’s about “transgendered” people - it will be a huge hit.

Yes, that’s amazing. Of course the sound is always the problem, so I’d be interested to see if they really were able to get good sound. If they could that’s pretty much a technological miracle.

My daughter takes great photos with her iphone, they are just amazing.

You would probably know, how do you record a video in the wind but not hear the wind on your mic? I go out in all weather but only go to the beach on stormy days or in the winter. I wanted to piece together some stuff for my daughter-in-law and will just use music at the rough parts but for future reference?

it's a story about two (black) transgender women

I'm always confused about this.
Is a "transgender woman" a man who had a chopadickoffame done, or a woman who had an addadicktome done?

Regardless, with a subject like this, the "artist" could have used animation of still shots made by a 50-year-old Brownie camera using 60-year-old black and white (heh, heh) film, and still got accolades.

The overall cost of this setup — a setup that shot a feature film that is just killing it at Sundance? Well, Moondog’s adapter costs $160, FiLMiC Pro is $8 in the App Store, and iPhones range from — what? $200 to $600 depending on service and features? So, you’re looking at $168 to $768 to get high quality images for a feature film.

...

That accounts for the images. How about the sound equipment?

I have a great script.

A Right wing President is elected and rounds up all of the homosexuals, laywers, and communists and sends them to the North Pole.

The he deports all illegal aliens and moslems, and everyone lives happily ever after.
