Apple just showed what 20 iPhones can do on a movie set
Smartphones and cinema? Now we are talking. If you are a movie buff and a mobile tech nerd at the same time, Apple just handed you a treat. The company dropped a short behind-the-scenes video showing how the iPhone 15 Pro Max was used to shoot Danny Boyle's 28 Years Later. It was already known that the film used iPhones – up to 20 of them at once – but actually seeing that in action? Very cool. Boyle pushed the iPhone's cinematic potential in some pretty wild ways, taking full advantage of how compact yet powerful it is. The team actually built a custom 20-camera rig to shoot certain scenes – something that would've been a lot harder, bulkier and way more expensive to pull off with traditional film gear. Video credit – Apple Danny Boyle – yeah, the same guy whose movies like Trainspotting and The Beach basically rewired my brain growing up and the same director behind that Steve Jobs movie in 2015 – had plenty of praise for the iPhone. He specifically called out its ability to shoot 4K at up to 60fps, which he said made it ideal for a theatrical release. But why shoot with an iPhone in the first place? For Boyle, it came down to flexibility. The iPhone's size and weight allowed the crew to act quickly in remote areas with a minimal footprint. That was key for this film, where they wanted the scenery to look untouched, like no one had been there for 28 about that crazy 20-camera setup: Boyle doesn't go into specifics in the video, but I can guess it opens the door to all sorts of creative tricks. Capturing a moment from 20 different angles at once opens the door to Matrix-style 'bullet time' effects or even volumetric video – where you can move around a frozen scene in 3D space. It could also be useful for VR, 360-degree footage, or capturing super detailed depth info for post-production. Now, this is all with the iPhone 15 Pro Max . Imagine what would be possible once the iPhone 17 Pro Max lands. Rumor has it we are getting triple 48 MP cameras, including a new 48 MP telephoto with up to 8x optical zoom and finally – finally – native 8K video. So yeah, I'd bet we'll see even more full-on movies shot on iPhones in the near future.

Yara Sameh Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodi Comer and Ralph Fiennes' hit horror thriller "28 Years Later" is coming to digital streaming this week. The third film in the horror film franchise that began with "28 Days Later" in 2002, "28 Years Later" reunites the original film's director, Danny Boyle, and its screenwriter, Alex Garland. The film was released in theaters on June 20. The official logline for "28 Years Later" reads, 'It's been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.' According to a listing on Prime Video, "28 Years Later" will be released on digital streaming via premium video on demand on Tuesday, July 29. When it is released, "28 Years Later" will also be available on several digital platforms, including Apple TV, Fandango at Home and YouTube. The film is still playing in theaters. So far, "28 Years Later" has earned $70 million domestically and $80 million internationally for a worldwide box office tally of $150 million. The film had a $60 million production before prints and advertising costs, per The Numbers. While those who have the Rage Virus in "28 Years Later" have zombie-like qualities, Danny Boyle insisted in an interview with TIME Magazine before the film's release in theaters that the antagonists are not zombies. 'We had this thing about, 'No, they're not zombies. They're infected,'' Boyle told TIME. 'We wanted them to behave in a different way physically, but they also weren't undead. They could die and they will die, but so will you if they catch you.' In "28 Years Later", Aaron Taylor-Johnson's character, Jamie, takes his 12-year-old son, Spike (Alfie Williams), to the mainland where the infected roam over the objections of his wife and the boy's mother, Isla (Jodie Comer). The trip to the mainland is a rite of passage where the younger people sheltered by their island community learn to hunt the infected. Bold told TIME that part of the storyline was influenced by the coronavirus pandemic. 'When COVID first happened, we wore gloves, we disinfected groceries,' Boyle told TIME. 'But gradually over time, you start taking more risks. You don't stay in that super alert stage. You evolve. And so it is in 28 Years. They begin to take risks. Jamie takes his 12-year-old son to the mainland even though, as the mom says, that's f---ing crazy.'
