Inspired
by the new film Interstellar, Paramount
Pictures
and Google
Play
will develop a time capsule short film documentary capturing our most
precious moments of life on earth.
From
cave paintings and hieroglyphics, to folktales and film, mankind has
always passed along stories to preserve the past, and in that
tradition, the time capsule project asks this generation to take its
turn by submitting the memorable and inspiring moments of today to
give future generations a way to remember where they came from.
Submissions will be selected to then be part of a short film made and
produced by award-winning filmmakers David Brodie (The Witness,
Survivors) and Angus Wall (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The
Social Network) and curated by Christopher Nolan.
Whether
it’s a favorite photo, a music performance, a diary entry or a
dance, this effort calls upon the public to submit videos, photos,
sounds, poetry and artwork that best represent mankind’s time on
Earth. To learn more about the project, check out this video from
Interstellar stars Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway and Jessica
Chastain at interstellar.withgoogle.com/timecapsule.
Memories can also be submitted on this page through December 15,
2014.
The
time capsule effort is part of Google’s collaboration with
Paramount Pictures for the first-ever partnership with a film that
features initiatives delivered across Google platforms, including
Google Play, Google for Education, Google+ and YouTube. Together, the
companies are helping moviegoers connect to the film through
immersive experiences, exclusive content and detailed information on
how to see the film, find showtimes and purchase tickets.
Interstellar
stars Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Bill
Irwin, Ellen Burstyn, John Lithgow and Michael Caine. With time on
Earth coming to an end, a team of explorers undertakes the most
important mission in human history: traveling beyond this galaxy to
discover whether mankind has a future among the stars. Directed by
Christopher Nolan, written by Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan,
and produced by Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and Lynda Obst.
Interstellar opened in theaters nationwide on November 7, 2014.
