Life in a Day
Life in a Day is the largest 'user-generated' film made. It was produced by Ridley Scott, Kevin Macdonald and the YouTube Community who responded to their invitation to record thier life on 24th July 2010 and to upload it to YouTube. The film is:
Participatory
Crowd-Sourced
User-generated film by an active audience
The YouTube community were asked to reflect on:
What do you fear most?
What do you love?
What makes you laugh?
The film is a collection of many different autoethnographies of each active audience who has contributed to the film.
Unfortunately you can't watch the whole film on YouTube, but there is more information here: http://www.youtube.com/lifeinaday
