Amongst the storm of commercials for the Apple iPhone created by its growing fan-base, comes this gem from director Ryan Landels.  A spec ad done as a collaboration with producer Christina Ferguson and visual effects artist Phil Broste, "the Future is Calling" borrows from the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, cutting together a shortened version of an existing sequence.  The Monolith, from the film, was the perfect stand-in for what would be images of the iPhone rendered in 3D and composited into the scenes.
