Regular Joe here. The old media tends to call me Joseph Gordon-Levitt, that being my name and all. Here in the new media, I hit that round red REC button on a regular basis.

HITRECORD.ORG is a project I started almost five years ago now. It began as a single page website just to host a few videos I'd made. It evolved into a small but vibrant community of art-sharing. And in 2010, we've become a full-fledged professional collaborative production company.

Later this month, we're sort of unveiling this new production model in the New Frontier section of the Sundance Film Festival. We'll be setting up a fully functional REC Room, with computers, cameras, mics, everything we need. We'll be collaborating both with Sundance attendees, as well as our global online community to create a variety of short-form media projects, and towards the end of the ten day festival, I'll be curating a screening of our results.

Want to work with us? I want to work with you.
Are you RECording?

This is the first movie shot on my new (beautifulamazingsuperfantasticGORGEOUS) Flip Camera! The first of many movies. RECording just got a whole lot sweeter... Here is Marke adding the vinyls to the outside wall of the REC Room.

Last year when 500 Days of Summer came out, James from Gordon And The Whale interviewed Joe and, at the same time, Joe filmed James interviewing him. A collaboration was born to see how the two videos could be synched up & remixed.

The full story can be found here: http://gordonandthewhale.com/fan-made-edit-of-james-and-joseph-gordon-levitts-red-carpet-video-interview/

Sadly, many of the iterations haven't been re-released on V4. But who needs last year's RECords, when we could just take today's interview and remix that instead from all the different camera angles. Joe/James/Tarin - can you upload your versions and let's get remixing?

SUNDANCE STARTS TOMORROW! We hitRECord team of four have been joined by a merry troop of many more. But of course, that's not where it ends. You're here too!

This is a roll call. Who is present? Release a RECord to tell us who you are and what you do, so we can put you to good use.

We'll remix all those RECords into a final Result, probably screen it at Sundance, and show show-business who and what a production company can be these days.

Torihitrecordsundanceposter

this should be the right size, some of the text isn't great because i don't have helvetica on my computer, so i had to improvise by stealing text of other smaller posters. i can always release a version without the smaller text on if that would be helpful for anyone wanting to make a tidier bigger version.

Poster_video

I really like the records of this collaboration. And I tried to create a poster for the "video theme" after the one about music (by Marke) and the other one about photography (by alexblackwelder). I tried as much as possible to keep the same style than the first records, even if I think I didn't really succeed... I was in a quandary (that's a strange feeling to find some words in a dictionary which not seem to be true, or simply weird...but we can't do anything else than to trust the dictionary...) about the camera. I thought first to take a picture of my digital camera but I didn't have enough light to do it, so I've chosen a Super8 and I prefer actually this model because it seems more stylish in a way... What do you think? it's to be remix anyway :-) There is maybe a problem of size of the picture... I wasn't sure but I can adjust it easily if it's too small.

Renowned street artist Banksy has put up two pieces here at Sundance.
We've created an animation of them and need your help. VOICEOVER artists: make voices for the cameraman and the rat. SOUND FX artists make it sound good.
Here's the collaboration: http://www.hitrecord.org/records/33793

This one is happening! We really need BACKGROUNDS and ANIMATORS. Show your stuff. The Kid, Narrarator and Judge are already up. The phone dude and the litigants are on their way. Sallydanger made them easy to animate. Reverend Alex did the singing and voices, and TheLif recorded a rough of the music so we can get started on the animation. Think School House Rock South Park Anime. I dig this concept and it's looking like a Sundancer to me - Get on it and let's make this awesome!

G-tech, by Hitachi, is a company that makes external hard drives, especially catering to creative people, like us. And thanks to them, our final Sundance Screening on January 29th has become hitRECord's first ever money-making production. As you know, when our production company makes money, we share what we make with the contributing artists. So there is now $10,000 up for grabs. If you contribute to one of our collaborations, and we Resource your RECord at the final Sundance Screening on January 29th, you get a share.

So... I'm late. Sorry. But still present! This is my Sundance rollcall. :D (AKA: I can't believe I released a record of my ugly mug on the internet. BKA: please ignore my new haircut. I look like a 12 year old boy. And sound like a girly chipmunk.)

Anyway. I am ready, willing and able (also extremely excited) to hitrecord for Sundance! I wish I were there. But sadly, I can't be there/ I explain why in the video. :P

I will end this by saying... Hello! You! Yes you! Very eager to work with you. I heard you're awesome. :D

I attempted to include most of the roll calls this time around. If you have any ideas on how to improve it be sure to comment. Recommend it if you like it!

If I forgot you, I'm sorry! I had so many videos to cut together and some may have slipped through.

Great music by Metaphorest.

Completed Resources. ( I hope.)

I had the incredible opportunity to meet Regular Joe in the REC room on Main St. in Park City this year.

And even more incredible than that is this...I had hit record just seconds earlier.

Unforgettable. Cheers.
