How to affix video overlay to 3D model?

Question

I'm looking to make a video demoing an iPhone app. I have an .mp4 file with a video of the interactions on the device. Now, I want to import it into Blender as a 3D plane and affix it to a model of an iPhone so it can be animated.

Here is an example of the effect I am looking for: https://player.vimeo.com/video/162753618

Any pointers would be much appreciated!

There is an addon you must activate under File > User Preferences > Addons called Import Image as Planes that should do exactly what you want — Duarte Farrajota Ramos, Nov 22 '16 at 06:40

Use the Image Texture Node for the material applied to the screen portion of the phone. The Image Texture Node accepts videos as well.

Remember to UV unwrap your object.

New to Blender: what does UV unwrap mean? – Matt Nov 22 '16 at 07:06
