A new short film, by award-winning actor and film-maker Gary Oldman, shot on the new Nokia N93 multimedia computer has made its premier recently. The movie named Donut, is being screened on the Nokia Nseries Studio, a groundbreaking online mobile movie community where future directors can upload and showcase their own mobile videos.

Gary, the director of BAFTA award-winning Nil By Mouth and star of Bram Stoker's Dracula and Harry Potter: The Prisoner of Azkaban, has produced a two minute short featuring a round reflection in rippling water set to a haunting soundtrack. The film demonstrates not only the DVD-like video capture quality of the Nokia N93, but also how advanced mobile video devices offer the unique ability to shoot.

Commenting on his film, Gary Oldman said: "Mobile video devices like the Nokia N93 allow us to capture the extraordinary moments in our ordinary days and share them with the world. The image in Donut is one such fleeting moment I happened upon that inspired me to grab my mobile video device out of my pocket and record it to share with others. I hope my film encourages people to do the same and I look forward to seeing the results on the Nokia Nseries Studio."

Featuring a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, DVD-like video capture and 3x optical zoom, the Nokia N93 offers advanced imaging facilities. Users can store up to 90 minutes of DVD-like quality video or almost 2,500 high-quality photos on the Nokia N93's 50MB internal memory or share them by connecting the device directly to the TV for a widescreen movie experience. The images and videos can also be uploaded to online albums and blogs. Users can even create high-quality home movies and burn them to DVD with the included Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0 software.
