Wildwave intends that this showcase will offer a taster of the upcoming Darklight Mobile Film channel it is launching in association with Darklight Entertainment, its joint-venture with the Darklight Film Festival. Wildwave expect to launch the channel on 3G networks in early 2005.
Nokia’s vision is life goes mobile. In the future, people will create, distribute and consumer digital information and entertainment almost anytime and anywhere, each according to their needs, Already today, features such as news, music and games can be enjoyed in a mobile environment. It is only natural that the film industry will go mobile too.
The Nokia 7610 is the company’s first mega-pixel camera phone and is a great tool for creating digital content as well as viewing it. Users can create short films or music videos of up to 10 minutes by shooting and editing the footage captured with their imaging device. By using Movie Director application, users can now for the first time turn the video clips captured with their Nokia 7610 into personal movies by adding special effects such as music, text, new colors or moving objects. The application automatically combines multiple video clips into a single video vignette or optimizes the edited videos for MMS sending.
