Movie shot entirely with an iPhone gets US theatre release

The movie Tangerine, which was a hit at Sundance Film Festival, will be making its way to theatres in the US this July. What's unique about the film is how it was shot. It was made entirely with an iPhone 5s and Filmic Pro app. It received rave reviews after its debut in Sundance. A lot of other movies have already been shot using the Apple device but this was the first one to premiere at the festival. If things go well with its release, this could open the door for more iPhone-shot films.

iPhone 5s and Galaxy S5 case designed to protect you from hackers?

Vysk: Putting Privacy Back in Your Hands from Mustache Production on Vimeo.

If you thought you could use an extra layer of security for your iPhone 5s or Samsung Galaxy S5, Vysk has made a case that doubles physical and digital security for your device. Let us list down the features of the Vysk QS1. It has mechanical camera shutters for the front and rear cameras so it won’t pry into the world and yourself. It has a microphone jamming system and an internal processor that encrypts your calls to make them secure. It also features encrypted voicemail, private messaging, and image gallery.

The QS1 is also designed to protect you against malware with the company’s patented Privacy Network. We’re not quite sure how they protect you against malware but that is an interesting proposition. And before we forget, it also has a built-in battery to give you that extra juice you need.  This comes at a pretty price of US$229.99 though. You can pre-order it from their site or through Best Buy later this winter.
