Sep 10 2024 Share

The Weeknd has announced the release of his new single, “Dancing in the Flames,” the lead track from his upcoming album Hurry Up Tomorrow. Accompanying the single is a music video shot entirely on Apple’s latest iPhone 16 Pro.

The video, directed by Anton Tammi with Erik Henrikkson as the director of photography, showcases the iPhone 16 Pro’s advanced capabilities. Demonstrated at Apple’s It’s Glowtime event, the video was filmed in 4K at 120fps with Dolby Vision. Henrikkson highlighted the device’s performance in managing strong highlights and deep blacks, despite concerns about capturing high-contrast elements such as bright HDMI backlights and rain. “The iPhone 16 Pro effectively bridges the gap between professional and consumer cameras, which is a significant advantage for emerging filmmakers,” Henrikkson stated.
