About Hand Held Hollywood
Film and video makers love gadgets. We flock to any new technology that demonstrates the slightest potential to help us conceptualize, visualize and digitize our creative visions. So why have we neglected that touch-screen powerhouse already in our pocket? Hand Held Hollywood is here to change that.
HHH explores how your iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch can aid in nearly every aspect of film and video production. This is a destination for those wishing to discus and discover the latest techniques and technology. It's a place where every gadget obsessed writer, producer, director, cinematographer, composer, editor, actor, and otherwise can call home.
As manufacturers continue to create more powerful hand held devices, HHH will broaden its scope to include them. But until there are viable alternatives, Apple's products have our full attention.
