      I have emailed you 2 times and no reply. I have not received any emails and no word on the DVD. You are starting to give kickstarter a bad name. What is the DEAL?

      Hi All,

      We are sorry that some of you have not received the email blasts. Given the growing nature of our One Day on Earth online community (approaching 30,000), and the small size of our team, we try to be as efficient as possible by aggregating our email lists into a single blast. Aside from email blasts, you'll also notice that we post blog entries and updates via social media - feel free to check out the latest posting from last week: http://www.onedayonearth.org/profiles/blogs/our-weekly-update-1

      That said, I hope everyone is aware of the global screening on Earth Day (April 22nd). We are literally working around the clock to try and secure venues in every country of the world. We have just finished the film and we are currently coordinating distribution for the screening.

      As per standard distribution schedules, DVDs are produced and shipped after the film is released - we are working toward an official release date, and we can't wait to share this film with you.

      If you are interested in the global screening, please check out this link: http://www.onedayonearth.org/screening

      Another update is coming. I'll post a comment here to inform you that the email has been sent, so you will know to check your inbox.

      Thank you for your patience and support. This has been a labor of love for our team and we have not wavered for a single day in making sure that this film exceeds all expectations. It is truly a one of a kind community effort. Thank you for being an important part of this movement.

      Brandon

      Hi Jennifer,

      Our film is far more caused based and, especially with the support of some of the worlds leading NGOs & UN, gives a fair representation of daily life on our planet: both the joys and struggles. With Vimeo as our partner, we worked with some of the best content creators in the world :) Here are a couple articles that address the differences from the New York Times and Telegraph.

      http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/30/movies/one-day-on-earth-seeks-to-capture-the-world.html

      http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/film-news/8683239/One-day-on-Earth-captured-on-film.html

      As an ongoing community and collaboration, we recently filmed again on 11/11/11. We hope to do it every year going forward. Thanks for the support and reaching out to clarify.

      Best,

      Brandon

      Hi Brandon and Kyle

      I've been really excited to be a small part of this project.
      But recently, when I was telling a friend about it, they told ME about "Life in A Day".
      A film from Scott Free Productions that is already out.
      Sounds like almost exactly the same thing!
      How frustrating!

      Can you guys share your thoughts about this?
      Is it the same concept?
      How is "One Day on Earth" different?

      -jennifer.

      Hi Rob and Craig,

      Sorry for the communication lull - the last update was sent through a service called "constant contact" and it seems kickstarter updates have proven more reliable. We just posted an update a moment ago and we are excited to report that we have begun conforming the film. Now that we have gotten past a few major hurdles, we'll plan on posting more updates on progress. Thanks so much for the patience and so sorry for the unintended radio silence.

      -Brandon and Kyle

      This seems to be the case with several projects I've backed. They get the money and then decide to just vanish and not update much at all.

      Agreed, Rob. We pledged our money to make this project a reality. I believe we are entitled to at least an update if not our promised DVD's. What's the word, ODOE team?

      Last update was September. From that update: "We are working diligently on finishing the first global film and will be reaching out later in the year for shipping info to send the Kickstarter rewards when the final steps are complete."

      The year is almost over, so it's safe to say they forgot and/or were busy working on the 11/11/11 thing. Hopefully a new update is sooner than later.

      LOVE the trailer, if just a few more people donate the $25K goal will be reached! Amazing that 16,000 people are a part of this. If each person donated $2 dollars there would be a total of $32,000! Since only 469 have donated thus far you will exceed your goal! It should be easy to get the balance needed to go forward. I am proud to be a part of this project ! Much love to all of you for ALL of your efforts!
