One Day on Earth
2012 · Film · documentary · 104 min
Directed by Kyle Ruddick
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, it set out to explore our planet's identity and challenges in an attempt to answer the question: Who are we?

I have two friends doing content in new ways:
* The New Kind - CG Television show, created by a global group of artists with the development posted to Facebook day-by-day: https://www.facebook.com/pages/THE-NEW-KIND-series/246243672095519 https://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=127971893907947
* "'One Day On Earth' is the documentary new media project about the amazing diversity, conflict, tragedy, and triumph that occurs in one 24-hour period on this planet. More than a film, 'One Day on Earth' is a multi-platform participatory media project. The flagship of this project is a documentary to be released theatrically. Through a creative commons we will establish a community that not only watches but participates.' https://www.facebook.com/onedayonearth http://www.onedayonearth.org
Both community created on a global scale, they could only exist in the internet age.
