Hi Ashley! We really had a great time that day, and I am definitely filming on 12/12. I am currently filming a falconry training video, so I'm hoping to get some great footage of the birds in flight. I think One Day on Earth is a brilliant concept and I'm just happy to be a part of it!
I am planning to do a "day in the life" series of photographs with three other photographers. we plan to cover as much of the island"s 238 sq miles as we can and produce a Blurb Book. I live on the Caribbean island of St Lucia.
Hi Ashley, I have two ideas, both much better with snow, so we'll see what the conditions are like on the 12th. One is to follow some dogwalkers, they have about 10 dogs of different breeds trotting through the snow. The second is to set a camera on a tripod and film a Rumania beggar in the gloss of central Stockholm for a few hours until it becomes dark. The contrast is huge, they kneel on the bare ground, and the warmly dressed Stockholmers politely walk around them. I'm thinking timelapse - I'll film in real time and speed it up in post. Any comments?
I am planning to shoot on 12-12-12 starting with a sunrise somewhere on the east coast of Florida and shoot whatever I see as I make my way across the state ending with a sunset somewhere on the West Coast of Florida.
Hello Ashley, Yes as a matter of fact I am leaving for Egypt this weekend and will be leading a group through the 12/12 - 12/21 time and plan on shooting HD footage all about. Let me know if you are interested in a special place and I will do my best to capture it!
Hey :) I have a question - can we use music in our films? I mean legal music, from CC for example? Or better if there will be only recorded sounds from scene?
Hi Ashley. I'm hoping to perhaps go early and film the fishermen at Qait Bay bringing in their catch. Then film Alexandria 'waking up'....coffee shops preparing for the morning arrivals rather like our 'pubs' in Britain. Men do a lot of networking over their morning tea and sandwiches. Others opening their shops and some preparing their donkeys for the day's walk through the streets together with their loudspeakers shouting their wares. And so on.....
Hi Ashley! I plan on filming in my area on Wednesday, but not sure just what my subject will be. I'm going to let the day unfold and see what opportunities come my way.
Thank you for your comment. I will shoot what I can tomorrow but time is something I have very little of right now unfortunately and have very little planned.
Hello! I am using my phone to record my day. It is an android not an iPhone, do I need a special app for it? So far I've just been using the regular video camera function.
Hi Ashley, I just finished uploading my videos from yesterday on to Vimeo and I had a question to ask about the privacy settings - do we leave the videos set so 'Anyone' can view them or can we restrict viewing until after selections for the final film have been made? Thanks.
Hi Ashley. We got to film a couple scenes. - Muizenberg/Kalk Bay sunrise... it was mainly around the Kalk Bay harbour twilight time. Fishing boats bobbing, a lone fisherman, an engaged couple having their photos taken etc -The Noon gun firing on signal hill Cape Town. the gun fires at exactly 12 noon everyday and has been doing so for 200 years.
We will make sure to get the footage to you guys in time.
Hello Ashley, I succeeded in filming rural life in Cameroon on 12.12.12. I will upload the images soon. I hope you'll like them. Its really good to hear from you.
Stay blessed.

Hi Ashley, thanks for asking but unfortunately I was not able to film anything. I had other commitments to attend to and did not have time. Such is life.
Hello Ashley thank you again for encouraging us to do the 2012 shooting. We were finally able to upload the Video today. Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year from Papua New Guinea
Hello Ashley, I have a problem uploading a video to Vimeo. It says it must be no more than half a GB. My video is a full GB... I am hopeless with computers but is there anyway around this. Thank you- it was a pleasure making the video!
Dear Ashley, It was a very intriguing and exciting experience... The students got very inspired of this event. Hope we will have another One Day on Earth next year!! Thank you for the creative initiative to join all people around on the same day!!! All the best,
Olga Morozan,

Thank you very much for the feedback :) Goes to show that family and the social life is more important than money. And I also noticed 3 videoes are missing... :p
Hi, Ashley: I sent an email to the community address, not sure if it went through because I haven't heard back from anyone. I am having problems uploading from Sierra Leone because of the very slow internet we have here. I am traveling to the US and will arrive on January 15. I was asking if I would be allowed to upload my video then. It's a 133 MB file so it shouldn't take too long there; here it takes forever. Please let me know if this is possible. Thank you.
David Chaytor
Ha, just found how to get you a message...... ;-) Yes, we filmed in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire and it's really helpfull that the upload date is extended to January 28th. We'll make it....... Best from Abidjan
I completed the video upload but now I cannot see the video on my feed on One Day on Earth nor can I see it on my vimeo page. I'm not sure if it uploaded at all. Shall I upload it again?
thanks Ashley, I was thinkink at that https://vimeo.com/57326589 I had some problem in uploading the clips I took the 12.12..so I tried to upload some of them directly on my vimeo
(I love all this! time running and reverting..just now with my girls my first time on skype..) we living!!
If it would be possible I would like to post on vimeo some other clips of my 12.12.12. Only little pieces of time..

Hi Ashley. You must be one of the organizers I suppose.
I have updated my profile and you can see what I'll probably shoot. Will that do?
One question, I know that they have the recommended apps for iphone, but how about ipad?
Thank you for the help
