Getting Gmail from A-B. Collaborative video concept

2007 August 3
by Paul O'Flaherty

Gmail I just got home from walking Ditte (Ex’s sisters dog). She’s been staying with us for the past week which her owners are on holiday…

Anyway, that’s irrelevant. I just got home, opened my Gmail and spotted a link in the top corner inviting  me to “Join our Gmail Video“.

The idea behind it is kind of cool. It’s a collaborative video showing how an email travels around the world created from 10 second long video submissions.

There’s even a print out Gmail “M-velope” to use in your production.

Help us imagine how an email message travels around the world. Take a look at the collaborative video we started, and then film what happens next. We’ll rotate a selection of the clips we receive on this page, and add the best ones to the video. The final video will be featured on the Gmail homepage and seen by users worldwide.

All it takes is a video camera, the Gmail M-velope ( ), and some creativity.

Submit your clip by August 13th, 2007 to be considered for the final collaborative video.

Here’s the video so far…
