Listen to a KPBS Midday Edition interview about One Day in San Diego.
What do you think the future holds for San Diego? A video project hopes to give us a glimpse into the future showing us both the promise and the problems facing our city.
KPBS, Speak City Heights and the producers of the documentary One Day on Earth are teaming up for One Day in San Diego, a 24-hour filming event on April 26 that encourages people all across San Diego to pick up a camera and film a story about the city’s future.
People in 10 other U.S. cities will be doing the same thing on that same day. They’ll all then upload their footage to be archived online and some content will be selected to appear in a documentary that will air later this year on PBS stations across the country, including KPBS.
To get you started, community members have been sharing their thoughts on San Diego’s future. Scroll through our Tumblr and hear why San Diegans love their city and what concerns they have about its future.
Anyone who is interested in participating is encouraged to attend a meeting April 25 at Platt College.
Sign up to participate on April 26.
