Going for today's small chip low-fi digital look, just as they did with the original 28 Days Later in the 90s.

But then... what's with the huge cine lenses on the front?

"However, Danny Boyle’s forthcoming zombie flick, 28 Years Later, was shot over the summer with a bunch of adapted iPhone 15s, WIRED has learned, making the Hollywood thriller, with its budget of $75 million, the biggest movie to date filmed with smartphones."

 

This is apart from the Insane Lenses Attached to the Camera, big budget additional gear, God knows what else etc.

 

Tangerine was a film actually shot on an iPhone woth attached lenses. But genuinely shot on it, with minimum extras. 

 

This Danny Boyle film saying it's shot on an iPhone is just so ... dishonest

Does seem a bit pointless sticking such a large lens on a phone. Wonder if they used the Blackmagic camera app or the stock app on this. I've noticed no one is discussing that the iPhone 15 Pro can now shoot raw video like Android phones already do. It's only up to 1080p (2.5k and 4k are expected soon - probably on the iPhone 16), but unlike on Android phones, no transcoding is needed as the app records CDNG directly. 

Here's a video I did shooting in 1080p 14-bit CDNG - the crop is heavy and the app needs work but was interesting to try this out. Reminds me of the original BMPCC in a way. Once they sort out the 4k recording let's see if anyone will use this to make a film

Sure Travis Pastrana can do amazing job with 1983 Subaru GL Wagon. Sure its anything but a 1983 Subaru GL Wagon.
