Yesterday, Today

April 6th, 2009

There’s this fantastic group on flickr called My Day, Yesterday, where people upload a video summary of their day in 90s or less.

A friend brought this my attention, the fact that no matter where you are in the world, our lives really aren’t that different. Above is my first attempt of yesterday today, not exactly taken yesterday, was in fact taken in last October but I just hadn’t got round to posting it. And below was my second attempt taken last month.

I’d highly recommend you try this little project. And when you do, PLEASE link me up, I would love to watch it!

    You could have closed your eyes and still spot her with her infectious laugh! And the stop motion breakfast is to-date my fav part of all the videos.

    @Janice
    That’s just one, there’s another one in my old room. Not that we have alot of shoes, but my mum likes it neat.

    @Angela

    I went to the Flickr group and watched a few and I must say, I feel like doing one now. Although I reckon my day is going to look very boring comparatively!!!

    @michie
    you just have to consciously remember to record things. That’s the hardest part. Second hardest is trying to shorten everything down to 90s.

    @Janice
    You’d be surprise how interesting and jam packed it is when it’s time to edit. DO IT!!

    @yongfook
    Taste just as good too. Ghim Moh Hawker Centre. But i’m sure the food is better in Japan, everything is always so immaculately cooked/uncooked and presented.

    @gizmoe
    i love the lapse thing :) fav part of the videos

    @j

    Done the My Day Yesterday project. I think it’s fun. Only published in FB though. Your video is good inspiration.
