In a scene from the Galaxy Book4 campaign video, Seong-hun Kim, director of Netflix’s first original Korean series “Kingdom,” adjusts details of the set’s composition with the help of the Samsung Galaxy Book4. Using the laptop’s AI technology, he settles on an ideal shape as his crew looks on in fascination before taking to their stations to resume filming.
Samsung Electronics recently released two videos that showcase the outstanding performance and connectivity of the Galaxy Book4 series. The videos feature Seong-hun Kim, who has directed TV series and films such as “Kingdom” and “Ransomed,” and Konsta Punkka, a Finnish wildlife photographer. Both artists show how the Galaxy Book4 series frees them to focus on art.
Samsung Newsroom sat down with Seong-hun Kim to learn how he utilizes the Galaxy Book4 in his productions and workflow.
Q. In the video, you demonstrate multitasking with the Galaxy Book4 series’ AI features — summarizing a meeting in one moment and responding to requests from the art team in the next. How did you feel about using all these new features during filming?
In the past, I would work on my laptop at home or from a hotel to improve the script and prepare for the day’s production — before switching to a more portable device on set. When I connected the Galaxy Book4 Pro to my tablet and smartphone, I was blown away since it felt like I now had a single device. I could hardly believe the seamless integration, allowing me to control everything from one device, and the user-friendly interface, fitting my needs for every situation.
Q. What advantages does the connected experience of the Galaxy Book4 series offer on a movie set?
While filming the movie “Ransomed,” the location scouting team had been using smartphones to take photos around Morocco. Due to the poor internet connection, it wasn’t easy for the crew to upload and share their photos. In addition, we had trouble connecting the smartphones to monitors due to equipment compatibility issues. We ended up wasting so much time and had to endure long periods of waiting.
