Singer Niall Horan steps behind camera for band's 3D film

The boy band, who are behind hits like 'What Makes You Beautiful' and 'Live While We're Young', is making a 3D film showcasing their life on the road as the band goes about performing across the world, Contactmusic reported.

"Niall's got a camera, so he is going to film some of the film," said fellow band member Louis Tomlinson.

And the Irish singer insists some of the clips he has would fit the bill rather well.

Meanwhile, Morgan Spurlock - who received an Academy Award nomination for his documentary on fast food 'Super Size Me' - has been roped in to direct the entire project.

 

"Morgan works well because... He did a lot of documentary movies. That's more like what we want our movie to be. It's going to be a concert movie, but with a documentary side... So we wanted to get our personalities across because the fans know us, but we want them to know us deeper," Horan added.

The shooting for the film has already started with cameras regularly accompanying the band for various events and performances. Its expected release date is August 2013.
