9th International Festival of Cellphone Cinema |
New Delhi: The first ever international festival of Mobile
Cinema in the World designed and planned by Sandeep Marwah of Asian Academy of
Film And Television has announced its 9th edition to be held in the
month of January, 2016.
The festival was created 10 years back when a short film was
shot half in Noida and half in New York as an experiment of cost effective
cinema for new format. Prof. Karl Bardosh, master professor at Tisch School of
Arts, New York University was partner in this film.
The festival has been successfully contributing to the
promotion of cinema and has been the source of inspiration for all mobile
companies of the world to start mobile broadcasting.
I am happy that I could contribute to the World Cinema
through mobile. I am also thankful to Kanbar Institute of Film & TV for
honoring me last year for my initiatives for cellphone cinema.
