Cell phone film festwebsite. What next?
The Seattle Times: Business & Technology: Contest: Think big with small tool: "The rules of the contest are simple:
There must be a story, a narrative and sound, and the film must be shot on a cellphone. The movies can be edited digitally on a computer or a cellphone that has editing functions.
The technical quality of the movies will depend on the cellphones, some of which can film with greater resolution than others. To ensure fairness, all submissions will be judged in basic VGA (video graphic array) quality, Lynch said."

Improve your cell phone photos
Here is some practical advice from The Detroit News: "Pictures taken by cell phone cameras are small by definition, and can be difficult to see. But there are ways to make better cell phone pictures possible. Kodak recommends placing subjects against a plain background, so the eye is less distracted. Try to shoot people at eye level -- that means crouching down to take a picture of a child or a pet. Play with different angles; you may get a better shot of friends if it's taken from above."
