Orange, California.
The part where yo ucan see blocks is filmed in Roehamtpon and the rest I presume was filmed in a studio.
To make a long answer short, I don't know the exact date of its first airing on MTV, but it's likely to have been sometime in August or September of 1981.For more detail:The video for "Planet Earth" was filmed in late December 1980, not long after Duran Duran signed with EMI and recorded their first album Duran Duran. It was directed by Russell Mulcahy (later to direct feature films such as Highlander) in a film studio in St. John's Wood in London.The video was aired on various video programmes in the UK, Europe and Australia starting with the single's release in February, 1981; in fact, the "Planet Earth" single reached #8 in Australia on the strength of the video and video-prompted radio play (the band had never toured there).MTV itself was not launched until August 1, 1981. "Planet Earth" and the censored version of "Girls on Film" were among the videos that MTV put into occasional rotation during their first year, but the band and the first album were not initially very successful in America and the videos weren't played heavily.The "Planet Earth" video didn't receive a lot of attention until the band's second album, Rio, began climbing the charts in 1982. When the blockbuster videos from that album (such as "Hungry Like The Wolf", "Rio" and "Save A Prayer") went into heavy rotation, the first album had a resurgence in popularity, and was eventually reissued in the US with the new song, "Is There Something I Should Know", which also had a very popular video. During this year the video for "Planet Earth" reappeared on MTV and was seen for the first time by many music fans who had missed it in 1981.
In London. Was filmed in "Freemasons Hall".
The video was filmed by director Russel Mulcahy (Highlander) at various places around the island of Antigua in May of 1982.The yacht scenes were filmed on the bay at English Harbour, the beach scenes at Miller's Beach and Shirley Heights.

Two of the models on Duran Duran's music video "Girls on Film" were Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell. The other models names are not listed anywhere.
It's a song called "Wrong" and it's by Depeche Mode, not by Duran Duran.
Duran Duran's 1981 "Girls on Film" video was directed by the team of Kevin Godley and Lol Creme. (They also directed the band's 1985 video "A View To A Kill", for the James Bond film of the same name.)
Andy Hamilton played the saxophone in the studio recording (and on tour), but in the video, filmed in Antigua, it is bassist John Taylor miming playing the sax on top of the cliff, and keyboardist Nick Rhodes doing the same (while nearly losing his balance) on a raft in the shallow waters off Shirley Heights.

I believe the model for that shoot was Virginia Anne Douglas, a heartbreakingly beautiful woman who retired from the business at an early age (despite an abundance of offers). The video was shot in Huntington Beach Park, California and it's theme was a wedding (with Ms. Douglas as the tender goddess of a bride).
The models featured in Duran Duran's "Girls On Film" music video were not professional models but rather members of a British wrestling team known as the Birmingham City Rollers. The video was directed by Godley & Creme and featured scenes of the band performing alongside the female wrestlers. The video's controversial content led to it being banned by the BBC and heavily edited for television airplay.
