A New Movie by.... YOU

That's right. Ridley Scott wants YOU to co-direct with Kevin Macdonald (State of Play, The Last King of Scotland) and tons of other people in the upcoming documentary, Life in a Day:





Here's the deal: Life in a day will incorporate videos sent by YOU that you have captured on July 24th, 2010 into a documentary. Macdonald will take the "most compelling and distinctive footage". They are calling it a “historic global experiment to create the world’s largest user-generated feature film: a documentary, shot in a single day, by you.” And Macdonald says the project is "a time capsule that will tell future generations what it was like to be alive on the 24th of July, 2010. It is a unique experiment in social filmmaking, and what better way to gather a limitless array of footage than to engage the world’s online community." Life in a Day sounds very interesting, but I am curious to see how it will have a narrative.


So if you happen to have a camera on you July 24th, upload the video at www.youtube.com/lifeinaday and follow these tips, you could go to Park City for the grand premiere at Sundance!
