The Painter of Jalouz, the first 4K film shot on the iPhone 6s

Check out the first example of the iPhone 6s 4K video capabilities, as expressed by RYOT in its short 'The Painter of Jalouzi'.

According to PetaPixel, a media company named RYOT received iPhone 6s Plus phones in advance of a documentary short production on location in Haiti. The short, The Painter of Jalouzi, is about one man's quest to transform the slums into living art by painting his town in vibrant colors.
