- Stefan Pape sits down for an extended interview with director Steven Soderbergh to talk about his new film, Unsane, which was shot on an iPhone.
He gives a great answer about shooting the movie on a phone, and talking about 'the future of movie making'.
He also talks about his new film High Flying Bird, also shot on an iPhone, a film they had a rough cut of 8 hours after the shooting completed.
Unsane stars Claire Foy, Joshua Leonard, Jay Pharoah and Amy Irving.
A young woman is involuntarily committed to a mental institution, where she is confronted by her greatest fear--but is it real or a product of her delusion?
It is released on the 23rd of March in the UK and the US.

He couldn't look any more comfortable in that chair.
I like that he used a iPhone I’m a filmmaker and I use the iPhone for shooting because it’s not about your device it’s about your creativity
So true. It's about creativity and the story. Steven Soderbergh though could make a film with a paper bag and it will still look good.
Amen
Hi K what supports did you use for the I phone like what frames for it to sit on? Thanks Ben
Very true. Another thing that's true though is that the filmmaking community has... well, a lot of ego behind it. It's like if you talk to a PC-exclusive gamer about playing on console; the latter gets dismissed because of the sunk-cost fallacy of the former. Sure, there are benefits if you really go look for them, but at the end of the day, the experience is on par. To bring it back to films, sure, undoubtedly more expensive cameras and rigs give more capabilities, but at the end of the day, the same experience can be given to the audience with just an iPhone. Unfortunately, the trick is being able to take that on set without getting dismissed.
@Josh from Bakersfield lol yea you can make it just like I did
It's not about the camera, it's the lighting and the post processing of the raw footage.
lol. Android fanboi!

What an inspiration Soderbergh!! ❤ As an aspiring filmmaker and also Mobile Filmmaker in the process this is awesome, it's not about the camera, but about the talent behind the camera.
i would love to see what he makes now with the newest phones being even more incredible!
Soderbergh is a genius. He could make an entire animated feature on an Etch-a-Sketch.
David Dutton I truly believe that as well👌🏾
*when i was watchin' theMovie..i feeL Like i was standing next to Sawyer or whoever the camera-len's closed up to...* .... *superAmazing&Creative!*
He is ahead of the curve. iPhones will be the future of indie filmmaking.
He is a genius using 3 iPhones 7 Plus to make a great Thriller movie :)
I wanna know how he did the audio for the film when shooting on a phone. The audio quality was much better than regular iPhone audio
I want to know the editing software and post work he did. Something tells me if i set up the same shots with same phone, it wouldn't look as good.
professional lighting is what makes or breaks it
He used the filmic pro app for shooting
@@lafayette2957 promovie is and great
It reminded me of a Spike Lee joint.
Amazzzzzzzinnnnnggggg!!!!!!
I hope this is the future of filming for alot of people who have something like that to use. I loved this movie and find the fact that it was done on a iPhone charming. I can relate to this movie, cuz I've been contained in a mental facility 5 times. So this movie was a trip. Enjoyed the rollercoaster ride it gave me.
This is my first film I ever watch of Steven Soderbergh and I can say that he made a quality film and am a fan. I think he's brilliant for using an iPhone to shoot this film. Amazing and innovative, and trendsetting.
Unsane is a classic thriller
So should I go out and buy an iPhone 7 Plus to shoot my film? Or are their other, better phones to accomplish this with? I have never owned an iPhone.
LG V30
Lol just buy a camera
I wonder how many iphones they broke during filming 😂😂
Afrizal Anoda LOL
None they used three and it was more than enough
he should use iPhone 11 pro who has insane stabiliser
I'm an Italian guy and i have to say that: I can cleary understand just every single words from Soderbergh but the interview guy language it's like arabic for me..It is just me?!
British accents can sound like every language of the world! Specially when they speak fast. Lol
Spanish here I had to activate the subs because he speaks fucking fast.
Yeah, this guy speaks so fast he can't even keep up with his own words.
This video is pretty old I guess, does anybody know if he still feels that way in regards to shooting with iPhones aka a “small, capture device”?
I think this was a brilliant choice and it showed us that the tools are not as important as the creator.
I mean, DISNEY used state of the art equipment and still cranked out The Last Jedi.
Trailer looks pretty good. Snobs are up in arms about the gritty nature of the footage.
Right. They trippin. I knew something seemed off or different. Then I learned how he shot the movie... (H.F.B.) I'm boutta watch it after this... 🏀☻💯

What brand of phone gimbals did they use?
Hi AUB students
was it all entirely shot on iphone? No. Of course not. False advertising at its best
It was though
Soderbergh is a cinematic genius and a masterful storyteller.
Wich model???
he used a particular app on iphone 7 plus
deathsgreenhorse filmic pro
I short my second film with an iPhone
Did he use 1 iPhone ? Or did he had multiple ready ?
he must have used many iphones
Bill duke said he used about 5 or 6 iphones, and was pushed around in a wheelchair for dolly moves.
He said he used 3 iPhone 7's
We all love Soderbergh as well as making a movie with his technique. Certainly not to his level.
He’s sharp as a knife.
Could you speak a little faster?? Ruined it with such a Great director.
I suppose there "might" be a (solutional) gap between the RED MONSTRO (or whatever similar and big) and the iPhone. Steven, just admit that you are addicted to iPhones - not that it's the cool creative solution.
Well, I respect Steven for showing what a great results you can achieve with a sort of minimal amount of equipment. (But come on, there are better quality solutions - check also Stuckamann's review - he points towards about the same direction)
The film would've looked far better if filmed on an actual movie camera.... This is just apple product placement
Starbucks hipster talking point overload!
I saw the preview, and it looked like a student film, or a low budget Canadian film, and I passed. It's just not fun to look at ugly cinematography.
...There's no sign of 'creativity' in the way he uses this smartphone (with some extra lenses...) in this movie (movie that I am not judging in itself: I humbly like very much Mr. Soderbergh, for the record, no resentment at all). He simply uses it like he had a dslr, or an old camcorder, or any other kind of camera, even pricey. There's a misunderstanding. That's what happens when a brilliant American director sees himself like an European director (I don't want to use the term 'hipster'...), or at least like Mr. Orson Welles. I am European and this sounds obvious, to our sensibility. It's like reaching the Opera House on your bike instead of driving your limo (plus chauffeur). "So what"? Do a movie like it spending only 1000 $, and then we'll see (by the way, neither in this case we had a movie 'experiment', only an 'industrial' one, like a new delivery post service 'on foot', to say...). He is not a Gondry, for an example, or a Belà Tarr, or a Von Trier, or a Klimov. There's a huge misunderstanding (fortunately of a light kind: peace to everybody).
variamusica I'm going to kindly say this, but shut up. It was a good film and I find the fact that he filmed this on an iPhone charming. I've been to a mental facility, so he hit that on the nail on how it feels like to be contained in one. They treat u like ur crazy, when you're not.
