Crowdsourced "Life in a Day" Captures Thrills, Emotions

Imagine this scene: "The award for Best Documentary goes to: Life in a Day." And 333 directors file onto the stage.

The most elaborate crowdsourced arts project in history, YouTube’s surprisingly satisfying, sometimes thrilling Life in a Day http://www.youtube.com/user/lifeinaday draws from a huge pot of source material: 80,000 slice-of-life videos, comprising more than 4,500 hours of video, all shot on July 24, 2010. A team led by producer Ridley Scott (Blade Runner) and Oscar-winning director Kevin Macdonald (Last King of Scotland, Touching the Void) edited the choice bits into a 90-minute feature film.
