This December, One Day On Earth are once again calling on us all to help in documenting a day in the life of our planet on 12.12.12
One Day on Earth started in September of 2008 with the goal of creating a unique worldwide media event where thousands of participants would simultaneously film over a 24-hour period.
The idea for the project was conceived while watching musicians from very different regions of the world collaborate on stage at the opening night of the 2008 World festival of Sacred Music. Their initial attempts to create music together were awkward, and it was clear that they had never collaborated prior to this moment. Eventually though, over the period of a couple minutes, what was disharmony became harmony, and a beautiful fusion of music came together for the first time. The moment inspired a similar vision for another universal form of communication—cinema.
One Day on Earth has grown steadily as a grassroots effort of international filmmakers dedicated to documenting 24-hour periods, 10th October, 2010 (10.10.10), 11th November, 2011 (11.11.11) and now 12th December 2012.
So what will you be doing on 12.12.12?
