In 2009, film director David Lynch sent his son Austin and collaborator Jason S. on a 20,000 mile, seventy day long road trip, across the United States, during which they filmed ordinary people, talking about their lives and experiences. This website presents the 121 short films which resulted from that trip. Each film is introduced by Lynch Senior and features the interviewee speaking to the camera about his or her life. Although one woman talks about her recurrent nightmare of a faceless man with a goatee beard, the general tone is in the gentler vein of The Straight Story, rather than Lynch’s more surreal outings. What unites the interviewees, despite the wide range of age, background and race, is how compellingly the stories of their lives are told. The end result is a powerful and moving portrait of smalltown America as well as a demonstration of how the medium of the internet can be used creatively and imaginatively without sacrificing any of the traditional virtues of documentary filmmaking.
The filmmakers followed up this project with Interview Project Germany: a similar venture, featuring fifty interviews with German people.

This site presents the photographs, personal recollections and private films of German people, documenting the period between the last May Day rally in the GDR on 1st May 1989 and 2nd December 1990, when the first Bundestag elections of the newly united Germany took place. The result of a project developed by the Deutsche Kinemathek and the Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung, the aim of the project is to capture the personal responses of ordinary people to the historic events unfolding day by day. Searching can be narrowed according to theme, place, event as well as public figures, parties and organisations. A number of exhibitions provide structure to the resource, identifying significant events and themes - such as The Border Opens and grouping the relevant material together with contextual information, maps, dates, and place names. Some of the material is available under Creative Commons licences and the site is available in both German and English.

Academics from the University of Nottingham’s School of Cultures, Languages and Area Studies present a series of short videos based on a single word which is significant to their research. The site’s homepage presents the words as a kind of crossword puzzle grid, presumably to represent the interdisciplinary nature of the School. The user clicks on a word - Huguenot, Biscuit, Interstitial or Antisemistism - to name but four - and is taken to the video in question. Like other sites designed by Brady Haran, this one features a simple, stylish, slightly quirky approach which allows the enthusiasm of the academics to come across, without obscuring or trivialising the seriousness of their research.
