Yesterday we brought you the fantastic collaboratively-made short film from Joseph Gordon Levitt’s company HitRECord. The film is truly beautiful and stars the brilliant Elle Fanning.
In an industry full of closed doors to those that don’t have the right connections, Levitt has created an amazing venture that anyone can get involved with. After several years the site has now branched out into public access television, with show HitRECord On TV. Today sees the release of the first full-length episode of the show, and thankfully the actor has taken pity on all us none-Americans and has chosen to share it online. Here’s what he had to say about the episode:
Ladies and gentlemen, I am beside myself with joy and anticipation :oD It is my sincere pleasure to present the very first episode of HITRECORD ON TV! Watch the entire first episode here before it premieres on television.
Everything you’re gonna see on this show was made collaboratively on our site — hitRECord.org — and the work of 426 Contributing Artists is featured in this particular episode. There’s gonna be 8 episodes this season, each revolving around a different theme, like RE: Space, RE: The Other Side, and RE: Money. And since this is our first ever episode, I figured the theme of this one would be RE: The Number One.
HITRECORD ON TV will be coming out on January 18th on a new cable channel called Pivot.
I’m deeply proud of this show, and I think you’re realllllly gonna like it. Honestly, making this thing together with all the artists from around the world in our hitRECord community has been one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences of my life so far. So, without any further ado, enjoy the show!
Thanks again

Give it a watch, and who know’s, if it gets enough hits maybe he’ll be kind enough to share the rest of the series.
