Here's you chance to be a co-director of a Hollywood movie.

The world has 6.7 billion people and each one has his or her own unique way of viewing the world. I remember Richard Bach in one of his books saying in live in 6.7 billion different universes. He didn't use 6.7 but I put in there for emphasis. Well if YouTube and Kevin Macdonald had their way you could capture events during the day of July 24 in your life and if you footage makes it to the final cut you will be named as co-producer as well as attend the Sundance film festival.


The movie will be directed by Kevin Macdonald (Oscar-winning director of films such as The Last King of Scotland, Touching the Void and One Day in September) and produced by Ridley Scott.( the director behind films like Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, Thelma & Louise, Blade Runner and Robin Hood).




Want to take part? Here’s what to do.

1. Visit the “Life in a Day” channel and learn more about the project. Be sure to read through the steps you need to take to participate and the guidelines for creating your video(s). Also check out some of the sample videos for inspirational ideas.

2. On July 24, capture your day on camera.

3. Upload your footage to the “Life in a Day” channel any time before July 31.

Regardless of whether your footage makes it into the final film, your video(s) will live on on the “Life in a Day” channel as a time capsule that will tell future generations what it was like to be alive on July 24, 2010.

Be a part of history.
