THE
FDT
PROJECT
One question. Real people. Real answers.
Let them hear us.
How to Submit
- Read the question above and think about your answer — keep it to one or two sentences
- Film 3–5 seconds on your phone — face the camera and speak your answer, no script needed
- Hold your phone vertically (portrait mode)
- Keep it under 500MB — standard phone video is fine as-is
- Check the consent box, hit upload, then tell your friends to add their answer
Works directly from your phone camera roll
