SP715.jpgIn this age of accessible technology, just about anybody can make a movie, even if you don’t have a camera — just use your cell phone. Spain will be the first country to honor movies made on cell phones with the first ever festival for films made with this medium this June, the Movil Film Fest:

The event, introduced in Barcelona as a part of the Internet Global Congress 2007, welcomes any type of short film made with a cell phone with a maximum duration of one minute, according to the festival’s director, Alberto Tognazzi.

Four awards will be given to the outstanding mobile shorts, in the categories of Best Short, Best Sequence Shot and Best Photography. The four awards will be voted on by the public via text message, and judging will be helped along by several prominent Spanish filmmakers.
