This film is still evolving. Choose one of the Calls To Action below to participate in the next version of the film!

  • Times Square Remix

    In rip!, we created a sequence in Times Square that presented Times Square as the ultimate example of privately owned consumer culture. We're looking for a response in RIP the extended version. We've got all the source files for you to remix times square.

    Here's the end of the film, with Times Square inserted. This is where we're looking for remix!

  • Call for soundtracks

    Attention remixers: Creative Commons and OpenSourceCinema are co-hosting a Call for Soundtracks for “RIP: A Remixer’s Manifesto”

    Remixers everywhere are invited to create music using Creative Commons licensed samples. The movie producers will select the best of those for use in the final version of the movie.

    For more info, rules and how to take part, visit ccmixter.org, Creative Commons music remix community.

  • Submit a remix

    Much of the remix work that appears in RiP: A remix manifesto was done simply by watching footage uploaded to the site, downloading it, remixing, and uploading back. A simple call and response process that led to amazing results.

    To take part, simply find footage in the uploads section, and download it to your computer. Each piece of footage is a "node" with a link to download the media.

    When you have done editing, submit footage back in the submit content section.
