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 Apple's ubiquitous iPhone (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, the iPhone has our full attention.

 


 

HHH's Founder, Taz Goldstein

Taz Goldstein (www.tazgoldstein.com) is a Los Angeles based Director who launched Hand Held Hollywood to satisfy his own filmmaking and gadget addictions. 

With 20 years experience, Goldstein’s work has spanned nearly every medium. His award winning films have been showcased at festivals from Savannah to Singapore. His commercial directing garnered the Radius Award at the Cannes International Advertising Festival. And his television work has been seen by more than 30 million viewers (HBO Networks, Fox Television Studios, Food Network, MTV, FX and the Prime Time Emmy Awards).

Goldstein enjoys nothing more than sharing what he's learned.  He has lectured at numerous industry events including NAB, Macworld, and the DV Expo.  He has served as a Digital Media Net (DMN) forum leader, hosted the After Effects Boot Camp training series, and was a former faculty member at the American Film Institute. And if you’re still reading, Goldstein will buy you a beer... maybe.
