POWER TO THE PIXEL video: Timo Vuorensola

By Lance Weiler, November 5th, 2008

Power the Pixel videos are now live. Timo Vuorensola explains how he and his team fully embraced the concept of crowd-sourcing. Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning was a huge collaborative effort made by a core group of 5 people in Finland, and a community of about 3,000 volunteers from around the world. The film was a major online hit and has been downloaded over 8 million times.
