I know there are budding movie makers out there but how many would use a phone to make the movie?

first we had the thread "First ever movie to premiere on Mobilephone and then this morning a thread was started stating "World's first full-length feature film shot on a W900i"

now this BBC article gives details of three "Film-makers in mobile challenge"

Three directors have been set the challenge of shooting and editing a short film in under a week, using mobile phone footage.
The trio - Richard Jobson, Carol Morley and Martin Percy - have a budget of £3,000 to make the three-minute film


This makes me wonder what Esato members could come up with, presumably on virtually no budget, just using our phones and pc's?

I've been thinking about doing something like that for a while now. For much less than £3,000 though

Never mind. Technically sound people capture the best and bring life into whatever they shoot. A well knotted short story with a bit of dialogues and visual expressions will give nice effect.
