Breaking News: The Film Was Included in Staff Picks by Vimeo
Are mobile phones made for patenting companies or for user's needs? This film produced for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and directed by Matthew Charoff seeks to answer that question.
After Hyatt, this was another successful collaboration with NYC's Co.Mission Content Group working with multi award agency m ss ng p eces. The brief was to chase phones in highly controlled special malls in Shenzen, China.
