50 People One Question | Summer In The City

[polopowers1]

Like a snake crawling through the universe whose tail is held by many individuals. But the head comes up according the desire of the tail holder.Sometimes poisonous designed in bizzare beauty but never really controlled.

[UKtitch]

Michael you have a such a good talent well done its outstanding like all your vids :D

[FilmmakerMichael]

@UKtitch Thank you for your kind words! :)

[welaughindoors91]

"the best toy store but full of evil clowns" accurate.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@welaughindoors91 haha That's one of my favorite responses!

[OhaiTurtle]

the internet is a place where you can surf but you have to watch out for the sharks and stuff. cuz when you´re downloading a film the sharks might send you a trojan horse. which is inconvenient, cuz you don´t need a horse.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@OhaiTurtle ahaha Brilliant!

[OhaiTurtle]

[Chrisindapurplehouse]

It's microcosm of our world in the form of a vastly connected networks of mutual and nonmutual minds

[MultiJulieL]

"It's a place to find yourself and loose yourself" Brilliant!!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@MultiJulieL It was an amazing answer!

[CATSAREGREAT5]

The internet is connection. The internet is connection between people and places and memories and stories and ideas and the future.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@CATSAREGREAT5 That's a great answer! But you forgot to mention the billions of cats on the web! ;)

[saymoo]

[TruthJunkieMikael]

Fantastic video Michael!!!! One of your very very best. I am so totally jealous. That looks like it had to have been a great experience. You met Charlie and Calum and Crabsticks and lots of others. I'm so jealous. I love Calum. He's so nice and....ya, really cute ;) I may have to use this concept at school and do a randome question for 50 random students. Great, great vid Michael. Liked and Favourited!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@TruthJunkieMikael Thanks Man :) I know, i love gatherings so many awesome people show up :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@joelin66 I think that's great :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@MisterrAwkward True true..

[FilmmakerMichael]

@MisterrAwkward Thanks

Just wondering, why does this go from italian to french?

[AlexTheMagix]

This is my Summer in the City 2010 video, but it's so much more aswell. Shot and edited so beautifully, with a powerful message behind it. I am privilaged to have been a part of this, so thank you. Also, i think it's hilarious that i am the screencap for the video. =D Nice work Michael!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@AlexTheMagix Means alot man! No, thanks to you for being part of it! haha yup you're they eye candy that draws people into watching this ;) Cheers! :D

[strangebob2007]

[FilmmakerMichael]

@strangebob2007 Cheers, Everyone did a phenominal job answering the question, much better that what i could have come up with :D

[HillierSmithStudios]

Oh sh- forgot to fav this!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@HillierSmithStudios ahaha :D

[Shashiskaa]

Love this.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@Shashiskaa Awesome! Glad to Hear :D

[ntcssj]

This made me smile the whole way! This NEEDS to go viral!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@ntcssj Fantastic :) haha I wish!

[SuperKawaii75]

@FilmmakerMichael it was my first i was a bit nervous but then i made some new friends :D lol . what about you ?

[FilmmakerMichael]

@SuperKawaii75 Awesome! I Think pretty much everyone who goes to gatherings, especially their first are nervous, I defenately was. I've been to quite a few now, all of which have been amazing! You should keep an eye if your interested, there tends to be a gathering somewhere in the uk nearly every month/2 months now :)

[bubblybeauty23]

this is amazing :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@bubblybeauty23 Glad you liked it! I was so pleased with how it turned out :)

[jesseroggaa]

Great video, Michael!

Glad to see an upload from you, finally. Are you starting an interest in the documentary genre?

[FilmmakerMichael]

@jesseroggaa Haha yeah, it's been a while! But doing this has inspired me to start making more things :) and The Documentary Drama Is deffinately growing on me :D

[joe22twentytoo]

awesome

[FilmmakerMichael]

@joe22twentytoo Glad you liked it! :D

[jttg648]

Glad to have helped with this, glad to see the video went well :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@jttg648 Thanks I loved your part, I think it really suited as a piece to sum up the video :D

[Aishaaax]

This is a really good video,

I love the idea too.. great initiative :0)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@Aishaaax Really appreciate it! Everyone was fantastic in coming up with answers and it really made the video excell in my opinion :)

[Aishaaax]

@FilmmakerMichael I've seen quite a few videos about the gathering now, but yours is definitely my favourite

I think I will definitely try and go next year, it looked really fun :3

[FilmmakerMichael]

@Aishaaax Wow thanks :D

You should! They are Fantastic!

[s2MeJustYou]

i can't even begin to explain how AMAZING this video is!! i love how different... yet also similar everyone's answers are [if that even makes sense xD]

[FilmmakerMichael]

@s2MeJustYou It does make sense, it's hard to explain but its like everyone shares the same love for the internet and what it's done (like meeting everyone at the gathering) but they expressed it in a way in which what they said was different from everyone else

[s2MeJustYou]

@FilmmakerMichael yeh, that's exactly it!! and it's been put together so well ^__^ really, congrats on it, you've done a great job ^^

[FerreThoughts]

The Internet is the wild wild west.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@FerreThoughts This comment reminds me of Pokémon for some unknown reason haha

[ThoseLatinoKids]

I'm not a big fan of 9 minute videos, but there's an exception for awesomeness. that was just great michael, it had been a long time someone hadn't brought a simple but interesting topic like the concept of internet, it seems like everyone just cares to talk about fussy mainstream subjects, like the very notorious justin bieber, so it's a relief to see things so well-produced in my subscription box.

like @mxfng said, you really deserve all the views from the discussion you've set in!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@ThoseLatinoKids Thanks means a lot! I'm really thanksful for everyone who took part and answered the questions! The did so in a really articulate way, even the jokey ones, everyone was just brilliant!

[mxfng]

Congrats on the views and discussion! The video deserves it!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@mxfng Cheers man :D

[Graszood]

THIS IS SO GOOD. Was I nearly in this, by the way? I'm forgetting everything already :D

[FilmmakerMichael]

@Graszood Yeah this was the one i asked you about :) Hope you had a great time! :D

[journeysoflifevlogs]

How would I describe the internet?

Two words:

Information Overload

#LOL

But I like the rooftops metaphor also.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@journeysoflifevlogs Rooftop metaphore was ace!

[TFPFP]

Good video, Thank You for it.

@FiremanRich

: )

[FilmmakerMichael]

@TFPFP Thanks for taking the time to watch it! :D

[FilmmakerMichael]

@allisrecklessinme Is Brilliant :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@allisrecklessinme His username does not lie, he is increadibly cool :)

[CheekTV]

It annoys me this only has 806 views. Such a great piece, I've watched it twice x

[FilmmakerMichael]

@CheekTV I'm actually suprised it's reached that many, i didn't think people would bother watching because of its length, But i'm glad that everyone that did, did! :)

[blacther]

I would describe it as a big party that everyone was invited to :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@blacther Brilliant! Its suprising how many people just stay in the corners of this massive party though! They are missing out on so much!

[smilinglimpet]

I'm sure I read somewhere that the internet was a type of cheese...

[FilmmakerMichael]

@smilinglimpet Mozzarella firefox? ;)

[TheVampirePirate]

Me at 4:31... love it Michael. Favourited

[FilmmakerMichael]

@TheVampirePirate You are also at the end as well :D

[itsfreddieboston]

Great video from a great gathering!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@itsfreddieboston Hope you had an amazing time! I know i did

[evando2006]

omg thats me :D:D second person interviewed with the ale day t-shirt on

[FilmmakerMichael]

@evando2006 Thanks for being part! Loved the t-shirt! sonic was my personal favourite out of the three :P

[dunneshane]

This is great but poor quality :( the Internet needs no description! It is what it is!!

[FilmmakerMichael]

@dunneshane It's the compression, It was shot in HD, try watching it in higher quality if you like, it goes up to 720p on youtube :)

[compnerd2797]

The Internet is Humans expressed. It is what we we make, and we'll decide what direction it goes.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@compnerd2797 Brilliant answer! I can't wait to see what the internet will be like in a few years time and what sorts of things will be accomplished because of it!

[SuperKawaii75]

@FilmmakerMichael Yes it was brilliant :) defiantly going again next year (Y) Nice Video :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@SuperKawaii75 Was this your first gathering or have you been to any before?

[iownagreyhound]

interesting video i rarely watch through something as long as this

and at 5.11 o dear LORD stop touching your hair

[FilmmakerMichael]

@iownagreyhound I Thought many people wouldn't watch through it because of the length, but thanks for doing so :)

[AllStarFashionTV]

anybody notice how there all pale :L

[smooshie1592]

This video is fantastic!

The only thing is I sound like I'm shouting constantly :P

[FilmmakerMichael]

@smooshie1592 You did brilliantly! Thanks for being part of it :)

[MusicFromBlueSkies]

I knew there was a reason I spent so many days of my life organising that weekend! Great video.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@MusicFromBlueSkies It was an amazing day! And had I have been able to attend the whole weekend I would have! Thankyou so much for organising it, This wouldn't have been possible without you! :)

[skintc]

The Internet is the world at your fingertips. It is the answer to any question.

Wish I could have been at SITC, looks you like all had an awesome time. Big up to @RogueBlueJay !

[FilmmakerMichael]

@skintc SitC was brilliant! The internet is so weird, i mean we would never have had this conversation without it!

[xSoupyTwist]

Liam directed me here. Great video, wish I could've been a part of it. :)

[FilmmakerMichael]

@xSoupyTwist Everyone did tremendously well! :)

[PockyLoveXD]

I think it's like the capital city of the world XD

[FilmmakerMichael]

@PockyLoveXD Thats so true :D a great answer <3

[billtvmacon]

Fantastic video. Some epic YouTubers doing what they do best. Everyone needs to watch this.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@billtvmacon Everyone did an Epic job Tbh :)

[mxfng]

Great video.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@mxfng Everyone who was involved did an amazing job!

[NyehProductions]

just like you Micheal, t give people the most diffcult question

[FilmmakerMichael]

@NyehProductions Yeah but Everyone did a great job answering it :D

[sweetypie1988a]

what was the question

[FilmmakerMichael]

@sweetypie1988a How would you describe the internet? :)

[karmadee888]

The internet is a series of tubes! This is really well done Michael. Probably your best work to date. Very smart idea, wonderful editing, set to some really good music.

[FilmmakerMichael]

@karmadee888 This is my favorite piece i've done, but to be honest i did very little, everyone else made the video what it is!

[RIKIEatHOME]

Oh michael you always out do yourself ;) were definatly making a movie in college

[FilmmakerMichael]

@RIKIEatHOME I really didn't do much to be honest! It was everyone in the video that made it what it is! and yes we have to!

[mrtinoforever]

Tbh, this is absolutely brilliant,

Amazingly simplistic yet beautiful shot and a real eye opener.

On another note, I'm surprised I was capable of keeping what I said so short.

[CheekTV]

@mrtinoforever I'm just as shocked x

[FilmmakerMichael]

@mrtinoforever Thanks for being part of it! I've always wanted to do a video like this and i think if i had gone out on the street and asked this question the responses would be terrible,. I was amazed at what people said when I was filming this! Everyone really cares and its just added real heart to the video in my opionion :)

Again, thanks for being involved!

[Tinkynette]

That's an amazing video. And that's actually very moving to see how we all feel the same about the internet. And all the great things it brings in our lives.

Thank you so much for this video, that's full of great people that I loved meeting this week-end. And they're all saying beautiful things. <3

[FilmmakerMichael]

@Tinkynette The responses to that question was extrodinary! shows how much they care, i mean i asked one of my mates IRL this same question and all they said was "Porn" :/
