Posting my Dead Can Dance video, I realized that I’d never posted the final, complete One Day On Earth video from this year…

One Day On Earth: 10/10/10 Pre-sale DVDs
Donate. Purchase. Show Your Support. - One Day on Earth:
We know it has been a long wait, but 10.10.10 DVD's are finally here and shipping! From now until October 24th, you can buy the DVD at the pre-sale price of $14.99. We have beautiful posters and photo prints for sale as well.
Your purchase will help keep One Day on Earth alive for a third collaboration. In order to launch 12/12/12, we must reach our funding goal of $50,000 by October 24. This is just a fraction of the production cost, but will ensure that we will have enough producers on staff and technology updates in place.
Please consider purchasing a DVD and making a donation to help keep One Day on Earth alive for another year!
The 11/11/11 movie that I submitted some clips for is still in production. Here is my edited submission for the geotagged archive.
Today is the first time I’ve watched it in awhile. Put a lot of work into it and, unfortunately, I still have a hard time listening to that poor Walkabouts song. It used to be one of my favorites. But I like it. I am happy with what I was able to put together considering the limitations of gear I struggled with at the time, from camera to computer.
This year, for 12/12/12, I’ll have a better camera, more experience working with video, and I hope to focus more on film than on stills. Also, I hope to have more of a topic to focus on, rather than some vague thoughts about transportation, Veterans’ Day, early Christmas decorations, poverty, Occupation, and fall colors. I like the way those themes weave through the video, it feels like a nice little journey to me, but I’d like more of a specific topic this year.
I’ll probably only have a few days to prepare after NaNoWriMo for this, but it is a project I am looking forward to.
For Earth Day, a Film Created by the Whole World - NYTimes.com:
“One Day on Earth” is the culmination of a film and social-networking project started four years ago by Kyle Ruddick and Brandon Litman, two graduates of the University of Southern California. Mr. Ruddick has said he came up with the idea of documenting every corner of the world on a single day after attending a world music festival and watching various sonic styles mingle.
As Mr. Ruddick finished the feature-length movie, compiled from over 3,000 hours of video, in California, Mr. Litman worked from New York to secure financial and logistics support from charities and humanitarian organizations. Over 60 such partners signed on.
The 105-minute film includes rare footage from places where American filmmakers aren't exactly welcome--including North Korea, where a military parade was secretly shot. "We had someone who basically shot covert with a DSLR camera that was rolling video," Ruddick told Yahoo News. "It was harrowing to watch--you never want someone to put themselves in danger, or get hurt."
Footage from South Sudan, North Africa and Tunisia--which in 2010 was on the brink of igniting the Arab spring--was just as difficult to obtain. The pair also partnered with more than 60 NGOs, including Oxfam and Human Rights Watch--"people who know the logistics on the ground," Litman said.
If this all sounds familiar, last year’s Ridley Scott-produced documentary Life in a Day pulled off a similar feat by gathering video shot by YouTube users. But One Day on Earth, the brainchild of first-time filmmakers Kyle Ruddick (director) and Brandon Litman (executive producer), was initially set in motion four years ago. And unlike Life in a Day, which was backed by YouTube and Scott Free Productions and was distributed by National Geographic Films, Ruddick and Litman turned to nonprofit partners including the United Nations and World Wildlife Fund.
I’m a big fan of Life in a Day, but I see no reason why we can’t have two of these crowdsourcing “Earth in a single day” films. And if this Beirut-scored trailer is any indication, One Day on Earth seems to have the goods.

Until then…

As I wrote earlier on Facebook:
Spent some time the last couple weeks re-organizing my picture files. Trying to figure out the best method to keep everything organized while working on different computers in different rooms around the house. Just about done with that, and then I can actually start editing photos again!
This is also why I am trying out Windows 8 on my tower. I would have preferred to use 7 (or even the dreaded Vista), but 8 is free right now and the others are not. Trying to use Windows Live Mesh to synch folders between computers...
That is one reason for the break.
Really, though, it had more to do with just being a bit burned out and needing a break. Every once in a while I notice that I start hating every Photo of the Day I post. I get burned out, I get down on myself, and this starts feeling like too much of an annoying chore so I just start throwing up random pictures, not my favorites. When this has happened in the past, I’ve found that a break helps.
This break was meant to be a short one, a day or two, but life got busy. Some of this had to do with the IT issues mentioned in the Facebook post, but mostly it was life. Things have been busy with the boys.
But I am back. I meant to write a bit more here tonight, but I am still sorting out my photos… Much of this is automated now, synching between computers and letting Picasa rebuild its library, but it slows this laptop down to the point where assembling this post took over an hour.
So that is all for tonight.

The Final Cut: 2007
Again, mostly family photos, so I am not seperating them into different piles. I was working a lot and taking a lot of pictures for ESI, but not too many in my off hours. This was a crazy, busy, busy year with a lot of changes in our lives.
The ex one recovered enough from Wilson’s to get her own place and I went back to work for the first time after a several year hiatus while attending Portland State University full time. Not a lot of running around, long hours at work, recovery obligations, etc.
This was also the last year I was using the old HP Photosmart 318 that I spoke of in an earlier post. The low resolution of that camera did not inspire me to go out and take too many pictures.
Anyway… Some links and what not. Slide shows at the bottom…
