Parts of The Avengers movie were filmed using an iPhone! (NOT)
UPDATE: Apparently Seamus misspoke and parts were NOT filmed on an iPhone.
“I was talking about how up and coming film makers have access to a whole range of new technologies which expand our options as filmmakers. I mentioned that the iPhone and the Canon 5d Mk2 were devices currently used on many Hollywood productions. I used the Canon on some shots on Marvel’s The Avengers movie… Unfortunately, this was edited to read that I shot some of the film with the iPhone. This is not true.”
Being a fan of comics and mobile tech, this story could not be more cool to have read. Seamus McGarvey, director of photography for Marvel Studios, revealed to press that parts of the upcoming blockbuster The Avengers were filmed using an iPhone! He went on to say that even the trailer contains a shot from Apple’s smartphone and that not all film work has to be expensive.
“The beauty of photography or cinema is that you make every choice based on the content at hand. On ‘The Avengers,’ I did a couple of shots on the iPhone and they are in the movie. In fact, they are in the trailer! I understand that sometimes there is no choice and you have to go for the cheapest option, but if you are limited for choice, you can still make poignant decisions that will effect the look of the film.”
