“Life in a Day” is the name of one of the most impressive projects ever carried out by YouTube. In collaboration with National Geographics, producer Ridley Scott and director Kevin MacDonald, Internet users compiled a 90-minute film about the things that happened on Earth on July 24th, 2010.
The goal of this project is (among many others) to show the extreme diversity of activities, people, races, creeds and habits that spans the entire globe. More than 4,500 hours of video were submitted by users to the movie's producers, and all of them showed something different.
Putting the film together was a monumental task, one that required the better part of a year to complete. In the eyes of many, the movies symbolizes people's ability to come together when called upon to do so, as well as their predisposition to work together to accomplish great things.
Life in a Day also represents a cinema first, an innovative approach to movie-making that goes beyond script boundaries, and depicts real life with more realism than reality TV ever could.
