YouTube is joining world famous filmmakers Ridley Scott and Kevin Macdonald in asking people around to world to create the first user-generated feature-length documentary film shot on a single day - 24 July 2010. Life in a Day is an historic global film experiment that enlists the global community to capture a moment of their lives on Saturday 24 July.
Academy Award-winning director Kevin Macdonald (State of Play, The Last King of Scotland, Touching the Void) will direct, bringing together the most compelling footage into a feature-length documentary film. The project will be executive produced by Ridley Scott (Robin Hood, Gladiator, Black Hawk Down) and produced by his company Scott Free Productions. Individuals whose footage makes it into the finished film will be credited as co-directors and 20 of these contributors will be flown to the 2011 Sundance Film Festival for the film's world premiere.
