When I graduated UCLA, I moved to northern California,

Po diplomi na UCLA sem se preselil
v severno Kalifornijo,
v severno Kalifornijo,
00:20
and I lived in a little town called Elk
1

2249
v majhno mestece po imenu Elk
00:22
on the Mendocino coast,
2
6646
1987
na obali Pacifika.
00:24
and I didn't have a phone or TV, but I had U.S. mail,

8633
4558
Nisem imel telefona, ne televizije,
pošiljal pa sem pošto.
pošiljal pa sem pošto.
00:29
and life was good back then, if you could remember it.

Takrat je bilo življenje lepo,
če se spomnite tistih časov.
če se spomnite tistih časov.
00:32
I'd go to the general store for a cup of coffee
5
16926
2722
Šel sem na kavo, kolaček
00:35
and a brownie, and I'd ship my film
6
19648
2686
in poslal moj film v San Francisco.
00:38
to San Francisco, and lo and behold, two days later,
7
22334
4735
In poglej, dva dni kasneje
00:42
it would end up on my front door,
8
27069
1796
se je pojavil pri mojih vhodnih vratih,
00:44
which was way better than having to fight the traffic
9
28865
3030
kar je bilo bistveno bolje od vožnje
00:47
of Hollywood. (Music)
10
31895
1914
po Hollywood-u v prometni konici.
00:49
I didn't have much money,
11
33809
3988
Nisem imel veliko denarja,
00:53
but I had time and a sense of wonder. (Music)
12
37797
2927
a imel sem čas in smisel za navdih.
(Glasba)
(Glasba)
00:56
So I started shooting time-lapse photography.
13
40724
2888
Tako sem začel snemati počasne posnetke.
00:59
It would take me a month to shoot a four-minute
14
43612
2765
V mesecu dni sem uspel posneti
štiri minute filma.
štiri minute filma.
01:02
roll of film, because that's all I could afford.
15
46377
4582
To je bilo vse,
kar sem si lahko privoščil.
kar sem si lahko privoščil.
01:06
I've been shooting time-lapse flowers continuously,
16
50959
2474
Snemal sem počasne posnetke cvetlic,
01:09
non-stop, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,
17
53433
3037
nenehno, 24 ur na dan, sedem dni na teden,
01:12
for over 30 years, and to see them move
18
56470
2783
več kot 30 let. Opazovati jih,
kako se gibajo,
kako se gibajo,
01:15
is a dance I'll never get tired of.
19
59253
4046
kot da plešejo.
Tega se ne morem naveličati.
Tega se ne morem naveličati.
01:19
Their beauty immerses us with color, taste, touch.
20
63299
4899
Lepota cvetlic nas očara
z barvami, okusom, dotikom.
z barvami, okusom, dotikom.
01:24
It also provides a third of the food we eat.
21
68198
3183
Cvetlice nam tudi zagotavljajo 1/3 hrane.
01:27
(Music)
22
71381
2463
(Glasba.)
01:29
Beauty and seduction is nature's tools for survival,
23
73844
4145
Lepota in zapeljevanje
sta orodji preživetja za naravo,
sta orodji preživetja za naravo,
01:33
because we protect what we fall in love with.
24
77989
3111
ker ščitimo, v kar se zaljubimo.
01:37
It opens our hearts, and makes us realize
25
81100
1925
Ljubezen odpre naša srca
in prinaša spoznanje,
in prinaša spoznanje,
01:38
we are a part of nature and we're not separate from it.
26
83025
4985
da smo vsi del narave, ne ločeni od nje.
01:43
When we see ourselves in nature, it also connects us
27
88010
4084
Kadar se zedinimo z naravo,
se tudi povežemo
se tudi povežemo
01:47
to every one of us, because it's clear
28
92094
2224
med seboj. Postane nam jasno,
01:50
that it's all connected in one.
29
94318
3055
da je vse povezano v eno.
01:53
When people see my images, a lot of times they'll say,
30
97373
3384
Kadar ljudje vidijo moje posnetke,
pogosto izgovorijo:
pogosto izgovorijo:
01:56
"Oh my God." Have you ever wondered what that meant?
31
100757
4280
"O, moj bog." Ste se kdaj vprašali,
kako to interpretirati?
kako to interpretirati?
02:00
The "oh" means it caught your attention,
32
105037
2561
"O" izraža preskok pozornosti,
02:03
makes you present, makes you mindful.
33
107598
3167
vas osredotoči, aktivira razmišljanje.
02:06
The "my" means it connects with something deep
34
110765
2584
"moj" pomeni, da tematiko povežete
z nečim globoko
z nečim globoko
02:09
inside your soul.
35
113349
2272
v vaši duši.
02:11
It creates a gateway for your inner voice to rise up
36
115621
2744
Ustvari vrata za vaš notranji glas,
da se povzdigne
da se povzdigne
02:14
and be heard. And "God"?
37
118365
2992
in je slišan. In "bog"?
02:17
God is that personal journey we all want to be on,
38
121357
3608
Bog je tista osebna pot,
po kateri želimo vsi hoditi,
po kateri želimo vsi hoditi,
02:20
to be inspired, to feel like we're connected to a universe
39
124965
4675
biti navdušen,
občutiti povezanost z vesoljem,
občutiti povezanost z vesoljem,
02:25
that celebrates life.
40
129640
3120
ki slavi življenje.
02:28
Did you know that 80 percent
41
132760
2690
Ali ste vedeli, da 80 odstotkov
02:31
of the information we receive comes through our eyes?
42
135450
3811
informacij prejmemo skozi oči?
02:35
And if you compare light energy to musical scales,
43
139261
3102
In če bi primerjali
svetlobno energijo z glasbo,
svetlobno energijo z glasbo,
02:38
it would only be one octave that the naked eye could see,
44
142363
3026
bi golo oko lahko videlo samo eno oktavo,
02:41
which is right in the middle?
45
145389
2560
tisto, ki je ravno na sredini?
02:43
And aren't we grateful for our brains that can, you know,
46
147949
2824
Ali nismo hvaležni za naše možgane,
ki lahko sprejmejo
ki lahko sprejmejo
02:46
take this electrical impulse that comes from light energy
47
150773
3048
električni signal, ki izhaja
iz svetlobne energije,
iz svetlobne energije,
02:49
to create images in order for us to explore our world?
48
153821
5320
da lahko ustvari sliko,
s katero raziskujemo naš svet?
s katero raziskujemo naš svet?
Ali nismo hvaležni, da imamo srca,
02:55
And aren't we grateful that we have hearts
49
159141
1555
02:56
that can feel these vibrations
50
160696
2246
ki lahko čutijo te vibracije,
02:58
in order for us to allow ourselves to feel the pleasure
51
162942
3592
da si lahko dovolimo uživati
03:02
and the beauty of nature?
52
166534
2777
v lepoti narave?
03:05
(Music)
53
169311
4223
(Glasba.)
03:09
Nature's beauty is a gift that cultivates
54
173534
3070
Lepota narave je dar, ki goji
03:12
appreciation and gratitude.
55
176604
2358
občudovanje in hvaležnost.
03:14
(Music)
56
178962
3760
(Glasba.)
03:18
So I have a gift I want to share with you today,
57
182722
2683
Prinesel sem dar,
ki ga želim deliti z vami,
ki ga želim deliti z vami,
projekt, na katerem delam. Imenuje se
"Happiness Revealed" (Razkrita sreča).
"Happiness Revealed" (Razkrita sreča).
03:21
a project I'm working on called Happiness Revealed,
58
185405
3381
03:24
and it'll give us a glimpse into that perspective
59
188786
3048
Naj vam pokažem delček nazora
03:27
from the point of view of a child and an elderly man
60
191834
3597
iz vidika otroka in starca
03:31
of that world.
61
195432
1918
o tem svetu.
03:35
Child: When I watch TV,
62
200088
4960
Deklica: Kadar gledam televizijo
03:40
it's just some shows that you just -- that are pretend,
63
205048
5444
so to samo oddaje, ki jih --
kjer se pretvarjajo.
kjer se pretvarjajo.
03:46
and when you explore, you get
64
210492
2758
Kadar pa raziskuješ,
dobiš več domišljije, kot si je že imel.
dobiš več domišljije, kot si je že imel.
03:49
more imagination than you already had,
65
213250
4608
03:53
and when you get more imagination,
66
217858
3256
Ko dobiš več domišljije,
03:57
it makes you want to go deeper in
67
221114
2367
te to spodbudi iti globlje,
03:59
so you can get more and see beautifuller things,
68
223481
3091
da lahko dobiš še več
in vidiš lepše stvari.
in vidiš lepše stvari.
04:02
like the path, if it's a path, it could lead you to a beach,
69
226572
6578
Kot pot, če je pot, lahko te vodi na obalo
04:09
or something, and it could be beautiful.
70
233150
2499
ali kam drugam in lahko bi bilo čudovito.
04:11
(Music)
71

(Glasba.)
04:40
Elderly Man: You think this is just another day in your life?
72
264585
6982
Starec: Misliš, da je to samo še en dan
v tvojem življenju?
v tvojem življenju?
04:47
It's not just another day. It's the one day that is given to you
73
271567
6530
Ni samo še en dan.
To je dan, ki ti je podarjen
To je dan, ki ti je podarjen
04:53
today.
74
278097
3746
danes.
04:57
It's given to you. It's a gift.
75
281843
5904
Podarjen ti je. Je darilo.
05:03
It's the only gift that you have right now,
76
287747
4350
Je edino darilo, ki ga imaš prav danes
05:07
and the only appropriate response
77
292097
2904
in edini primeren odziv
05:10
is gratefulness.
78
295001
7006
je hvaležnost.
05:21
If you do nothing else but to cultivate that response
79
305356
6732
Če ne narediš nič drugega,
kot da gojiš takšen odziv
kot da gojiš takšen odziv
05:27
to the great gift that this unique day is,
80
312088
4616
do tega darila, kar je ta edinstven dan,
05:32
if you learn to respond
81
316704
2817
če se naučiš odzvati,
05:35
as if it were the first day in your life
82
319521
3992
kot da je prvi dan tvojega življenja
05:39
and the very last day,
83
323513
2684
in čisto zadnji dan,
05:42
then you will have spent this day very well.
84
326197
8444
potem si ta dan porabil zelo dobro.
05:50
Begin by opening your eyes and be surprised
85
334641
3829
Začni z odpiranjem oči in bodi presenečen,
05:54
that you have eyes you can open,
86
338470
3827
da imaš oči, ki jih lahko odpreš,
05:58
that incredible array of colors that is constantly offered to us
87
342297
5279
da obstajajo neverjetne barve,
ki so nam nenehno ponujene
ki so nam nenehno ponujene
06:03
for pure enjoyment.
88
347576
3682
za čisti užitek.
06:07
Look at the sky.
89
351258
3448
Poglej v nebo.
06:10
We so rarely look at the sky.
90
354706
3460
Tako redko pogledamo v nebo.
06:14
We so rarely note how different it is
91
358166
5171
Tako redko opazimo, kako raznoliko je
06:19
from moment to moment, with clouds coming and going.
92
363337
5096
od trenutka do trenutka.
Oblaki prihajajo in odhajajo.
Oblaki prihajajo in odhajajo.
06:24
We just think of the weather,
93
368433
2726
Razmišljamo samo o vremenu
06:27
and even with the weather, we don't think of
94
371159
2140
in celo pri vremenu ne razmišljamo
06:29
all the many nuances of weather.
95
373299
3223
o vseh podrobnostih.
06:32
We just think of good weather and bad weather.
96
376522
4125
Vreme ocenjujemo samo kot lepo vreme
in slabo vreme.
in slabo vreme.
06:36
This day, right now, has unique weather,
97
380647
4712
Ta dan, pravkar, ima edinstveno vreme,
06:41
maybe a kind that will never exactly
98
385359
3068
morda takšno vreme, ki se natančno takšno
06:44
in that form come again.
99
388427
2788
ne bo nikoli več ponovilo.
Postavitev oblakov na nebu ne bo nikdar
06:47
That formation of clouds in the sky will never be the same
100
391215
3976
enaka, kot je sedaj.
06:51
as it is right now.
101
395191
3214
Odpri oči. Poglej tole.
06:54
Open your eyes. Look at that.
102
398405
5265
06:59
Look at the faces of people whom you meet.
103
403670
4645
Poglej obraze ljudi, ki jih srečaš.
07:04
Each one has an incredible story behind their face,
104
408315
7423
Vsak obraz ima neverjetno zgodbo,
07:11
a story that you could never fully fathom,
105
415738
6376
zgodbo, ki je ne moreš
nikoli popolnoma dojeti,
nikoli popolnoma dojeti,
07:18
not only their own story, but the story of their ancestors.
106
422114
7337
ne samo njihovo lastno zgodbo,
temveč tudi zgodbo njihovih prednikov.
temveč tudi zgodbo njihovih prednikov.
07:25
We all go back so far,
107
429451
3144
Vsi imamo preteklost
07:28
and in this present moment, on this day,
108
432595
4230
in v tem trenutku, na ta dan,
07:32
all the people you meet, all that life from generations
109
436825
5164
vsi ljudje, ki jih srečaš,
vsa življenja prednikov
vsa življenja prednikov
07:37
and from so many places all over the world
110
441989
4166
in iz vseh koncev sveta
07:42
flows together and meets you here
111
446155
3352
se stekajo in te srečajo
07:45
like a life-giving water, if you only open your heart and drink.
112
449507
6233
kot voda, ki daje življenje,
če le odpreš srce in piješ.
če le odpreš srce in piješ.
07:51
(Music)
113
455740
6847
(Glasba)
07:58
Open your heart to the incredible gifts that civilization
114
462587
5367
Odpri srce za neverjetne darove,
ki nam jih daje civilizacija.
08:03
gives to us.
115
467954
1919
08:05
You flip a switch and there is electric light.
116
469873
4078
Obrneš stikalo in tu je
električna svetloba.
električna svetloba.
08:09
You turn a faucet and there is warm water and cold water,
117
473951
5808
Odpreš pipo in tu je topla voda
in hladna voda
in hladna voda
08:15
and drinkable water.
118
479759
2151
in pitna voda.
08:17
It's a gift that millions and millions in the world
119
481910
4511
To je dar, ki ga milijoni ljudi
08:22
will never experience.
120
486421
3416
ne bodo nikoli doživeli.
08:25
So these are just a few of an enormous number of gifts
121
489837
4723
Tukaj je samo nekaj
od ogromne količine darov,
od ogromne količine darov,

da blagosloviš vsakogar,
08:47
will be blessed by you,

Schwartzberg tells stories that celebrate life and reveal the mysteries and wisdom of nature, people and places.
Schwartzberg's recent theatrical releases include the 3D IMAX film, Mysteries of the Unseen World with National Geographic, narrated by Forest Whitaker, and the documentary Wings of Life for Disneynature, narrated by Meryl Streep. Mysteries of the Unseen World is a journey into invisible worlds that are too slow, too fast, too small and too vast for the human eye to see, while Wings of Life focuses on pollination and the web of life. Schwartzberg also directed Soarin' Around the World, an international update to the original Soarin' ride now showing at Disney Parks in Anaheim, Orlando and Shanghai.
Designed to inspire, educate and evolve our perspective on the world, Schwartzberg creates and curates Moving Art videos, which can be found on your smart phone and Netflix. The Moving Art series will be expanded from six to thirteen videos in early 2017.
Schwartzberg's Gratitude Revealed series of shorts were launched on Oprah.com. Supported by the Templeton Foundation, with science and analytics by the Greater Good Center at UC Berkeley, the series explores the multifaceted virtues of gratitude. Schwartzberg is the first filmmaker to be inducted into the Association for the Advancement of Science and the Lemelson Foundation’s Invention Ambassadors Program.
For Schwartzberg, the greatest satisfaction is creating works that can have a positive effect on the future of the planet. "I hope my films inspire and open people's hearts," he says. "Beauty is nature's tool for survival -- we protect what we love. Nature's beauty can open hearts, and the shift in consciousness we need to sustain and celebrate life."
