The Nokia N8′s 5 finest moments!


Released in October last year, the Nokia N8 has had its fair share of adventures over the past 10 months or so. So, join us on our trip down memory lane where we recall, in no particular order, our top 5 finest moments with the Nokia N8!

1. N8 Producers
N8 producers was about capturing amazing footage on the Nokia N8 and, hopefully, winning a zero gravity experience in the process. There were some top class entries – seriously, all you have to do is just take a look at the winning videos. Out of this world stuff! ;)

2. Nokia Shorts
Pitch. Shoot. Win. Nokia Shorts wasn’t rocket science, but it was a celebration of film-making genius. It all culminated in the 8 finalists showing off their hard work at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, with JW Griffiths taking top prize for his acclaimed Splitscreen: A Love Story.

3.  Gulp/Dot Animation
The world’s smallest stop motion animation, followed by the world’s largest stop motion animation. Both filmed on the Nokia N8. The latter of which is almost done and ready to share!

4. Direct & Project
Taking place at the Vancouver Art Gallery, some rather talented film-makers were given the chance to express their creativity by directing and projecting their very own 60 second Nokia N8 films.
See the winning entry ‘Normal Design’ below.

5. Cannes Lions
Held only last month, the Cannes Young Lions were challenged to write, shoot and edit a 60 second commercial on the Nokia N8. The catch? They had 48 hours to do it. Check out the winner’s video!

Those are our highlights, what are yours?

Don't count on Russia to force out Assad: US senator

"This administration has a feckless foreign policy which abandons American leadership," McCain said. The U.S. can t count on Russia a major arms supplier to Syria to force President Bashar Assad from power, a U.S. senator said Sunday, blaming President Barack Obama for embracing a "feckless" foreign policy and punting tough decisions until after the November election. It was a particularly sharp rebuke for Sen. John McCain, who as a longtime critic of Obama s foreign policy hasn t pulled many punches.

"This administration has a feckless foreign policy which abandons American leadership," McCain told "Fox News Sunday."
