ONE DAY ON EARTH creates a picture of humanity by recording a 24-hour period throughout every country in the world. We explore a greater diversity of perspectives than ever seen before on screen. We follow characters and events that evolve throughout the day, interspersed with expansive global montages that explore the progression of life from birth, to death, to birth again. In the end, despite unprecedented challenges and tragedies throughout the world, we are reminded that every day we are alive there is hope and a choice to see a better future together.

Founded in 2008, ONE DAY ON EARTH set out to explore our planet’s identity and challenges in an attempt to answer the question: Who are we?

Please help us tell this story: 101010donate.org

Many thanks to the contributors of One Day on Earth, Vimeo, Ning, United Nations, and the 60+ non-profits for making this happen.

    This looks truly remarkable. Could anyone point me to the culture and circumstances behind the girl with the painted face?
  • One Day on Earth pro 7 months ago
    We are glad you asked, we love this contribution! ... It is a wedding ceremony in Kosovo and this custom is to prevent bad luck. Check out their original contribution in our geo-tagged archive from the day:

    archive.onedayonearth.org/videos/index/16759941

    From what I understand, it is VERY rare and there is only one person in the village that still practices this custom. As you will see from the hands in the above video, she is a village elder. I believe they are training modern day make-up artists so the cultural heritage does not get lost.
  • Christopher Jobson 7 months ago
    WOW. Thank you.
  • One Day on Earth pro 7 months ago
    BTW, thanks for the blog post!

    Life in a Day copycat? It will still be great, but not as original...
  • One Day on Earth pro 7 months ago
    Our grassroots effort started back in 2008. The films will be very different. We went to great lengths to make sure that we tell a more accurate story of daily life and use this opportunity to inspire change via an ongoing online community.

    Awesome video!!!!!!!! How did you go to every country in a day??? I'm very curious but either way good job! I wish you the best in all you do!
  • One Day on Earth pro 7 months ago
    It was tough to get them all, but thanks to our great partners and a super helpful online community, we did it :) We also donated 120 cameras which the UN used to engage the communities they serve in some of the most under developed countries. It was a real nail biter though, we didn't hear back from a couple people in Congo (Brazzaville) and scrambled last minute to find an available filmmaker the morning of.

    We're planning to go bigger on 11/11/11 !
  • Shiny 7 months ago
    I can't way to see it!! It must be hard to get everything organized especially when there's people in different parts of the world. You guys did great anyway so I commend you for that and it's really inspiring =D

    Cool idea, very similiar to Youtube's life in a day.
  • One Day on Earth pro 7 months ago
    Hello Mitch,
    Thanks! We're happy to have originated the idea via a grassroots effort that started back in 2008.
    As far as Life in a Day, they launched last year at this time and the result will be very different as far as message, form, and content.

    What camera are you using? Looks delicious it's so beautiful. And I just have to tell you, being a part time filmmaker and full time editor, the beauty in that video, made me smile and cry at the same time :)
    Thank you for that, and honestly and sincerely, best of luck to you and your program.
  • One Day on Earth pro 7 months ago
    Hey Benedikt,
    Thanks so much for your kind words. Our community of filmmakers used a variety of cameras, from cell phones to a Phantom Camera (many thanks Steve Romano!). What are you shooting on? Hopefully we can collaborate on 11/11/11!
  • Benedikt Jóhannesson 7 months ago
    My brother started a filmmaking firm here in Iceland in 2003 and we've been working together ever since. We've shot on DV (in the start) up to RED equivalent, once on 2x EX1 cameras and the last one we shot on Canon 5D.
    But I've been an avid film lover my whole life, and would love to contribute to such a project as yours.
  • One Day on Earth pro 6 months ago
    We definitely need the help in Iceland. We were lucky to have help from:

  • Bill Macomber 7 months ago
    Thank you! I'll see if they will let me bring my camera with me to A-School. That'd be cool, it'll be in Connecticut in the Winter, around the time for the next One Day On Earth. Maybe I could get some amazing shots of the ocean! :D
