Help Document a Single Day on Earth

If you are a film maker or even a wannabe film maker, you’ll no doubt have realised that social media is an awesome way to get your ideas and experiments spread fast.

Social media has enabled interactions and collaborative projects unlike any platform ever before.

Today, YouTube are taking it to a whole new level with the project they call “Life in a Day”.

Life in a day is a global experiment to create a huge user-generated feature film, shot in a single day, by everyone in the world.

You have 24 hours to shoot footage of your everyday life. All the best submissions will be turned into a film produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald.

Whatever they end up creating will premiere at the Sundance Film Festivalin January 2011.

Also, if your footage makes the film, you will be credited as a co-director. If that wasn’t cool enough, you could also possibly be one of 20 contributors brought to Sundance to celebrate with Kevin Macdonald. A great way to kick off that film making career!!

Here’s the official video all about the project:

Now, go get filming.
