A global experiment to create the first user-generated movie

Everyone has a story. Every day has a story.


"Life in A Day"is a cinematic experiment, by Ridley Scott, that captures life around the world in a single day and brings together contributors from all over the globe in a unique way.

The movie is set to premiere at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival on January 27th and is being billed as "the first user-generated feature-length documentary." The film incorporates about 4,600 hours of footage submitted by YouTube users from 192 countries, 80,000 clips created on 500 cameras distributed to “remote areas of the world” on one single day, July 24th 2010.

For those of you who want to see it before released the film will be live streamed on youtube.com/lifeinaday at 6pm and will be re-broadcast again on January 28th and subtitled in 25 languages.

They are calling the movie a "historic global experiment to create the world’s largest user-generated feature film: a documentary, shot in a single day, by you." It certainly is  something new and interesting; I'm curious to watch it as there's a lot of work in selecting the best footage, but will the whole movie be that interesting?


Should be a good one to watch.

  1. Hola!, que atractivo lo que cuentas... ojalá estas intervenciones comunitarias y masivas que permite la tecnología virtual vayan empoderàndose cada día más... que las personas que hacemos el mundo seamos quienes lo lideren.
