This sounds so cool ~ this message arrived in an email today from Vimeo

One Day On Earth

If you haven't heard of the One Day on Earth project, it's time you did. On October 10th (10.10.10), people in every nation of the world will be documenting a topic that matters most to them over a 1 day period to contribute to a unique film and archive. Participants that contribute 1 minute or more will receive the film for free and access to the non-commercial downloadable archive. If you're game for a cool, easy and history-making project to participate in, this is the one for you.

Join the United Nations, over 40 non-profits and many award winning cinematographers. Subscribe to the Vimeo channel and sign up to participate.

On the day 10.10.10, October 1, 2010, for an unprecedented event. Every Nation, 24 hours and You...

...Across the planet, documentary filmmakers, students, and inspired citizens will record the human experience over a 24-hour period. By participating in this historic event, you will help capture the diversity of life and culture on this planet. Together we will create a document that is a gift to the world.

One Day on Earth is a documentary and new media project about the amazing diversity, conflict, tragedy, and triumph that occurs in one 24-hour period on Earth. More than a film, One Day on Earth is a multi-platform participatory media project. The flagship of this project is a 120-minute documentary to be released theatrically. Through the One Day on Earth platform we will establish a community that not only watches, but participates.

Comment by One Day on Earth at this video at vimeo is the following

The accessible archive will be downloaded by participants (non commercial, with credit)-- create your own One Day on Earth or explore a topic of interest!

Founded as a grassroots movement in 2008(we started this 20 months before Life in a Day was announced), we have also created an interactive online community to further encourage collaboration across our thousands of international participants (via our partnerships, we are able to collaborate with filmmakers in EVERY country in the world, including regions that are normally inaccessible).

Participants can also create video that directly helps media creation for a cause via our “Cause” section on the website; and we have created an extensive educational program to teach media literacy to students across the globe.
