Director George Miller wants to uncover a collective Australian summer experience that doesn't just involve boardshorts and barbecues.

The man behind Mad Max, Babe and Happy Feet is urging the public to record and upload their own experiences on YouTube.

"Over the next few months we invite you to take your camera, even if it's on your mobile phone, and show us what you see and hear and feel about the Australian summer," Miller said in an online video message.

Submissions to the Map My Summer online project close on March 31.

Miller will then choose five of the best videos and work with a young filmmaker to create a short to be showcased at the 2011 Sydney Film Festival.
