i actually produced the rapper Too Short's first album using a sony tape recorder. I then played the cassette at a recording studio , the engineer followed my instruction to turn on the dat recorder and made a master tape of it . Sent it in and came back with a Cd and an album. Cost me less than o.oo dollars . The album went gold. Good job Tangerine!

I'm watching this thinking, 'Wow, this interviewer sounds so familiar, sort of like Cokie Roberts, but no.. different'. I look at the name, Anne Thompson... wait THE Anne Thompson the journalist? Ah, that's why I knew your voice and style. Haha. Good interview. Fascinating.
they did such a great job with the sound & keying in music to nail the feeling we all have just watching the moments. Masterful. I'm in awe this was done on an iphone! How dare I narrow the use of mine to traveling calls & stuff I can do in a stationary position!
just saw the movie & heard that it was shot on an iphone - the cinematography & the editing were brilliant. But it was the story that was the centerpiece and really drove the movie - not the technical aspects of it. kudos to these guys.
