Britain In A Day is a major new project designed to capture a unique snapshot of Britain on one day, and people from all corners of the United Kingdom are invited to take part.
On Saturday November 12th they are asking people in Britain to film something that captures the intimacy and singularity of their life and to upload it to a dedicated channel on YouTube. With the support of executive producers Ridley Scott and Academy Award winning Kevin Macdonald, director Morgan Matthews will use the material submitted to craft a feature-length documentary film that captures the variety and vibrancy of life in Britain today. The result will be broadcast on BBC2 next year in the run up to the Olympics.
The idea is based on Life In A Day, the global, user-generated feature film produced by Ridley Scottâ?Ts company Scott Free London and directed by Kevin Mcdonald. 80,000 videos were submitted to YouTube by people all over the world, wherever they were and whatever they were doing. The result was a powerful and inspiring portrait of the world on a single day.
We want to encourage people from every corner of the country and every walk of life to submit a film so that we can reflect the true kaleidoscope of the UK today.
We have been contacted because whilst the documentary will be publicized heavily on the BBC, we want to be sure that we get the word out to people with a keen photographic interest who have the technology to flip the record button. Landscapes, sunrises, sunsets, street film making, and the like.
