Collaborative video project showcases Galaxy S23 Ultra’s outstanding camera experience in any conditions
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today unveiled the complete final cut of “Epic Worlds,” a unique cinematic project filmed entirely with a Galaxy S23 Ultra, capturing the essence of several distinct film genres and illuminating the possibilities of mobile content creation. Almost entirely crowdsourced before being edited together for today’s compilation release, “Epic Worlds” is a testament to the power of open collaboration.
At the heart of this storytelling approach is a short centerpiece film, starring Emma Myers (known for her role in Netflix’s “Wednesday”) on a journey that transitions through noir, science fiction, western, fantasy and action thriller film genres. Although Myers plays the protagonist, the hero of the piece is the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s Nightography. With an incredible ability to capture low-light scenes, Nightography enables Cinamatic-like clarity and detail.
What’s more, the central narrative in “Epic Worlds” inspired complementary content. All around the globe, influencers from Team Galaxy shot their own scenes in reaction to the film. This content, all filmed with the Galaxy S23 Ultra, has been woven together to create the cohesive spectacle that is the complete “Epic Worlds.”
“I am so excited that Samsung invited me to be a part of Team Galaxy. Using a smartphone to bring such an incredible short film to life was really amazing, and I totally loved the results and the entire process,” said Myers. “I am drawn to unique projects, so working with Samsung provided me the opportunity to use that creativity more and to encourage others to do the same by creating their own short films. I cannot wait for everyone to see the compilation cut of ‘Epic Worlds’ — it’s a next-level collaboration.”
“It’s honestly blown me away,” said Zee Ntuli, director of the “Epic Worlds” centerpiece. “I’ve been incredibly impressed with what this Galaxy device is capable of. What’s really amazed me is how the phone performs in low light. Nightography is just a remarkable feature.”
The project follows the success of previous Filmed #withGalaxy campaigns, in which Samsung joined hands with filmmakers to demonstrate the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s power to create cinema-worthy content. “Epic Worlds” builds on that legacy by demonstrating that great content can be createdfrom creativity, community and a collaborative spirit, all of which Galaxy fosters.
“Epic Worlds” is an invitation for content creators to harness the power of the Galaxy S23 Ultra and bring their most imaginative ideas to life. The Galaxy S23 Ultra makes cinematic-like content creation is available to its users.
