Surveilled Feature Film Shot with Android Phone
Surveilled was inspired by popular crime novels. James Smith and Caroline Spence shot in UK. Runner Up Award IMFF 2022.
The IMFF was an absolutely wonderful experience. There was plenty of engaging discussion on mobile phone filmmaking and it was great to finally hear first hand from other smartphone filmmakers about their experiences! Motivating! I thoroughly enjoyed the stunt coordinator’s workshop and the Red Carpet was fun! Would definitely like to be a part of this festival again. Outstanding festival Susy!!!

This festival has been a highlight. What I loved the most was the enthusiasm and support from organisers. It had such a great vibe. Communication and logistics were excellent. I’m just gutted I couldn’t make it live yet, even being on the other side of the world, the team made me feel included. Thank you and congratulations! Can’t wait for the next one.

A smaller yet intimate festival where you get to know everyone and the other film makers feel like family :)
