Apple's latest "Shot on iPhone" video "Poached" showcases Singapore's traditional dish of chicken rice, with Chef's Table' creator David Gelb producing the piece using an iPhone 13 Pro.
Apple's iPhone 13 Pro Creates Amazing "Poached" Video
Released on Apr. 24 to the official Apple YouTube channel, "Shot on iPhone 13 Pro-Poached" explores food served at food halls and food centers in Singapore, with the main focus being on chicken rice.
Referred as the equivalent of pizza to New Yorkers by chef and restaurateur Bjorn Shen, chicken rice is a staple and it forms the basis of the video's story.
Made by the creator of "Chef's Table" and the director of "Jiro Dreams of Sushi," David Gelb, the mini documentary shows the "chicken rice war" of business Tian Tian at the Maxwell Food Center.

After founder MDM Foo's daughter Ms. Loi took over, a difference in opinion for working practices prompted the departure of its head chef, Mr. Wong, according to Apple Insider.
Wong went on to open another business just a couple of stalls away, serving what he considered to be the way Tian Tian's chicken rice was cooked before the transfer of control.
Now, the two businesses are offering the same dish but with some differences, with each garnering their own audience.
A making-of video released the same day showed how Gelb filmed the documentary on the iPhone 13 Pro. This included mounting the phone onto sliders and tripods, the use of different mounts and turntables, and other professional equipment.
With space at a premium in the small kitchens, the iPhone was seen as a way to capture videos in very cramped conditions. Together with macro mode and the variety of tools on offer, Gelb singles out cinematic mode's focus changing options as being an essential tool.
The ability to mount the iPhone 13 Pro in places where it is hard to position bigger systems was also extensively used by the team.
At one point, the iPhone is held in a rig attached to a massive knife, used to prepare food on the stalls. The Apple Watch was also used, as a monitor while lining up the unusual iPhone placements.
"Poached" follows on the from the February film titled "Life is But a Dream," which Apple commissioned from an internationally renowned director Park Chan-Wook, who is known for his films "The Handmaiden" and "Oldboy."
