Gary Oldman Premieres New Mobile Movie Studio

Gary Oldman Premieres New Mobile Movie Studio

BERLIN, Germany and HONG KONG, April 25/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Award-winning actor and film-maker, Gary Oldman today unveiled a
pioneering new mobile video initiative, the Nokia (NYSE: NOK) Nseries Studio,
and announced plans to shoot a short film with the new Nokia N93 multimedia
computer, also introduced today.

Advanced mobile video devices like the Nokia N93 offer the unique ability
to capture and share spontaneous instants in everyday life. To encourage
people to shoot and share these moving moments, Nokia has created the Nokia
Nseries Studio (www.nokia.com/nseries/studio), a new interactive online
community for mobile movies.

Gary Oldman, the director of BAFTA award-winning Nil By Mouth and star of
Bram Stoker's Dracula, Leon and Harry Potter: The Prisoner of Azkaban leads
an international cast of creative visionaries who are shooting mobile movies
for the Nokia Nseries Studio on a Nokia N93. They are all tasked with
producing short films based on the theme of 'open your eyes' - capturing the
everyday moments that tell a touching, compelling or provoking story about
the world we live in.

Today and regularly over the next few months, a selection of these mobile
movies will be premiered on the Nokia Nseries Studio where they're available
for downloading to mobile devices or PCs. In the summer, Nokia is planning to
open up the site so people can upload and showcase their own mobile short
films.

Commenting on the initiative, Gary Oldman said: "I am fascinated by the
potential of mobile video devices like the Nokia N93. They allow us to catch
the fleeting moments we observe in our daily lives and share them as they
happen. The possibilities for film-making are endless - I'm looking forward
to producing a short film on a Nokia N93 and I hope it inspires people to
record the extraordinary moments in their ordinary days and share them with
the world."

Tapio Hedman, senior vice president, Multimedia Marketing, Nokia, said:
"Connected mobile video devices are the ultimate solution for spontaneous
video recording. With the Nokia Nseries Studio we're hoping to encourage more
people to shoot and share their life experiences. And with the Nokia N93,
people can capture these moments in unparalleled video quality from a mobile
device."
