YouTube is requesting that people upload footage of their daily lives to create an innovative feature film. Kevin Macdonald (“The Last King of Scotland,” “State of Play”) will direct and edit together a feature-length documentary from the submitted material. I’m sure he will have help! Ridley Scott (“Gladiator,” “Robin Hood”) will produce.
YouTube plans to document July 24th with videos submitted by users around the world. The project will be streamed for free on YouTube as well as debut at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2011.

Authors bio is coming up shortly.
This YouTube movie thing sounds totally great! Thanks for posting. Do you know if it’s possible to submit more than one video?
Yes it is possible. They’ve also included a number of other requests to help with their soundtrack (for example hands clap once, favorite sound, sing one note as long as you can…)
