A: This Ridley Scott -produced, crowd-sourced documentary titled ” Life In A Day .” The film, that is set to premiere at Sundance, gathered 80,000 movies of folks’s lives, all filmed this past July 24. Sounds epic.
According to Underwire, 4,500 hours of footage was submitted to director Kevin McDonald (who also directed The Last King of Scotland), which was filtered through by he and his team, until it was whittled right down to a single film. 26 folks that submitted footage are being labeled as co-directors, because their footage played a key part within the arc of the film. McDonald had this to assert concerning the movie:
” Each day we felt like we were seeing 20 different possible films as we got insights into so many of us’s lives,” Macdonald said in a press release. The outcome ” really grants a flavor of what it was wish to be alive on 24th July 2010.”
The coolest thing in regards to the movie is that once it premieres at Sundance, it’ll be webcast simultaneously on YouTube, where all of these clips were originally submitted.
