Joseph Gordon-Levitt - HitRECord

HitRECord

Gordon-Levitt has owned hitRECord, an online collaborative production company that shares its profits with contributing artists, since 2004. At its onset, it hosted six videos and short films.

Beginning in 2009, he opened the website to host films by others. In a 2007 interview in Salon, he described the website as " alternative outlet of where get to be a little less professional and just freak out a little bit." The site has since expanded with more than 10,000 participants collaborating to make songs, images, stories, and short films. According to a 2010 article in Details magazine, Gordon-Levitt oversees the site from a bank of computers in his home studio.

RECollection, the first anthology of work from hitRECord, was released in 2011 as a book/CD/DVD package. The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories Volume 1 was published and released December 6, 2011 by IT books and Volume 2 was released November 13, 2012.
