iPhone TV Ad
An ad for Massey University was filmed entirely on an iPhone — the first entire television commercial to be filmed on an iPhone in New Zealand.
This video recording of the making of the ad was made by Massey staff member, Dr Max Schleser, the digital media subject director from the College of Creative Arts’ Institute of Communication Design. Dr Schleser is a pioneer and leading practitioner of mobile phone filmmaking.
