What does an Australian summer really look like?
Wednesday, 26 January 2011
We’re a huge and diverse country - the sun shines in Broome, the rain pours in Toowoomba, the surf’s up in Bryon and the mist settles in the Dandenongs - and our summer is legend. Let’s share our collective experiences of this Aussie summer with the world. With your help, we want to create a map of the Australian summer on YouTube. Starting today, you can upload summer videos to YouTube, creating an archive of events, experiences and people from all around the country.
To take part, upload and follow the instructions to geotag your videos at
youtube.com/mapmysummer
. They don’t need to be fancy; we want to see any footage you’ve captured this summer on your video camera, mobile, or anything else you’ve got.
Roaming through the Australian bush?
Cricket at twilight?
Your stories will generate an Australian map of summer.
To give you some inspiration, we’re also bringing you summer highlights from several of our top partners, including
Tourism Australia
,
Universal Music
, and
Tennis Australia
among others, and each week we’ll be featuring the best of our Australian summer from around the country. This week, check out
a few of our favourites from Sydney Festival
. Be sure to keep coming back to see how we’re mapping Australia through video.
So as you head out this Australia Day, remember: the world is watching! Let’s show them what our summer’s like, and why it’s so special. Start uploading today.
