The Film Editor's how-to guide for Life in a Day

Joe Walker is a master Film Editor charged with the mammoth task of putting together Life in a Day. Here he gives some last minute tips on how to shoot your footage.

Life In A Day is a historic global experiment to create the world's largest user-generated feature film: a documentary, shot in a single day, by you. On July 24, you have 24 hours to capture a glimpse of your life on camera. The most compelling and distinctive footage will be edited into an experimental documentary film, produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald.

PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MI MATERIAL

Submitted to you in 8, 3 minutes film samples of raw, unedited material, with original soundtrack, as Mr Walker asked. But because I am a channel with 26000 subscribers I didn't want to show that unedited material to my audience , so I kept the films as "Unlisted", and that's why I know that noone has yet seen them. I have made those videos public now and tittled them "Day in a life" for you to watch them, so please do so. An African wedding in HD
