Hendrik documentation of April filming Al for W stories

In this video, Hendrik Beune documents with a Nokia N77 mobile cameraphone April Smith filming Al Tkatch with a Nokia N77 mobile cameraphone

April and Hendrik are adjusting Al to get the best angle of light so that the Nokia N77 cameraphone can capture his interview as well as possible.

The Nokia N77 is NOT a traditional camera with adjustable focus, multiple lenses and zoom features. It is a New Media Tool that can capture and livestream images to the web, or another mobile screen or device. SMS and MMS text messages can be used on the Nokia N77 cameraphone in a similar manner to convey information quickly and can be used for community communication purposes and capacity building for DTES artists.

Through filming this project, we learned about the Nokia N77 cameraphone quite thoroughly, inside and out and we were able to peer train each other while going through the learning process.

Al's interview was a part of W Stories Phase 1 - Building a Legacy. This team was mentored by Mo Simpson, NFB Filmmaker in Residence to Fearless City Mobile Project
