Startup Meme: iPhone app: Pocket Clapper, making motion pictures more fun

  • Predrag · 1 month ago
    People who make movies (for a living, or out of passion) actually find this very useful. There are several clapperboard apps there, and this one is the cheapest. Others may be better (and more expensive), but this one is perfectly adequate.

    When you shoot video on one device and sound on the other, clapperboard (the "clap" sound of it closing, and the image of the stick hitting the board) are the only reference points for proper synchronisation of audio and video.

    Wooden boards have been in use since late 1920's, so this makes a logical application of iPhone technology.
