speaking of, i am live streaming right now from ABC / E! and the amount of commercial breaks u guys have in america is INSANE. i dont know how u guys do it. theres one like every 3 minutes! and here i am in Germany complaining about ad breaks every half hour
I really really REALLY hope this is done in a genuine way, without thousands of dollars of extra hardware to improve what a typical user can obtain.
Whilst when they do that, it's technically still being shot on an iPad or an iPhone or whatever, I don't really feel it's in the True Spirit of the thing.
If you want to say "Shot only with an iPad or an iPhone" Then that's all the hardware that should be used.
No pro lighting rigs, no steady cams, no stick on lens's. Nothing, just the device. At the VERY most perhaps a tripod, and just edit the footage to look nice.
That would be in the spirit of the thing as I say, and I hop this is what they have done this time.
