Last day

 May 23, 2023     It is the final and last day of senior project. Camila and I have put a lot of work into this documentary and we now have the final product. We worked on doing our voice overs today which was exciting and putting it in gave the personal touch of what we thought as the creators. Our product has came out so well and we have learned so much throughout this project. I am really happy I chose to do this project and to learn and create what we created. It took a lot of time and effort but the final product really shows everything we did and learned. The experiences that I had are priceless and I am going to forever carry on everything that I did. It was really important to learn about the sustainable fashion industry and to be in adult like situations and professional settings. I walk away on the last day with a new mindset and adventures behind me. Also with an incredible 20 minute documentary that we made to show the world what we did these past two weeks of senior projec

Second to last day

 May 22, 2023     On the second to last day of senior project it was Camila and I’s time to get everything completely done. Today was the day we finalized our documentary by doing all of the final editing, and creating the scripts for our voice overs. Today and tomorrow are the most crucial days because we want to go over everything to make sure that our product looks ready to go. It is really important that we go over every detail and keep making small little details. This is what we did today, we sat on our computers and rewatched over and over to check for mistakes. Also we made sure to fill out our time sheets and start working on our poster board to present at express fest. Today was a really busy day as we wanted to make sure everything was perfect.  Hours today: 10 Hours in total: 88.5 

Weekly reflection #2

 May 21st, 2023      What a week it has been. To introduce you to this week I will give you a little rundown. We started this week by traveling from across the country from LA all the back to Boston. Camila and I took a red eye which kind of messed up our sleep schedule. The prior week we had learned been really busy so the both of us were ready to relax and focus on putting the documentary together. Besides starting our week with traveling it was time for us to get creative and get ideas for what we wanted to do. We had a lot of great content from the prior week from our interviews and filming different shots of LA.      This week we accomplished a lot. We finished the documentary in total which is amazing and really exciting. I learned this week how to make videos pleasing to the ears and eyes. To make the documentary engaging you have to crop all of the videos to edit out parts of the interview where the person talking maybe paused or said um. Cropping the interviews took a lot of t

Rainy day editing

 May 20, 2023      Yet another day of editing and again it was very strenuous. Besides starting the day off with breakfast we started off with another morning editing session. To make this one as productive as possible we made sure to work together to get it done right. So we had about 13 minutes left of pure editing the Kyle interview. We decided to watch it together, make the cuts and keep making sure it flowed. It took a lot of time to edit this interview since he talks a lot and we want to make sure to keep the good content, but we also want to cut out all the parts where he repeated himself or said um. Cutting these out just makes the interview cleaner and also reduces the time. After this editing session we took a break since we had put a lot of time into it. We decided to go to New London quick and grab some food. Then we came back and started editing again. For the second session of the day we still had to finish the Kyle interview and which we did finish editing it in the seco

Continued editing

 May 19th 2023      It was another prolonged day with a lot of editing. We started the day with yet another breakfast that we made at home and then wanted to get started right away on editing. We still have a lot of work to do and we want to make sure we get it all done on time, while also being a quality project. So we started our morning with a lot of editing, we were cutting clips on our interview with Kyle to make it more concise and flowy. We kept editing Kyles interview while also multitasking and considering what we want for the intro music. Therefore we looked on YouTube for some inspiration and looked for some good intro songs. We haven’t decided yet but we now have the outro song and some final contenders for the intro. The documentary is looking very good and very well put together and both of us are really happy with how it looks so far. After a long edit session we took a break and went and played some tennis. It was nice to be outside and enjoy the nice weather. Then we c

Day 12

 May 18th, 2023     Another great day with a lot of productivity. Today we started the morning by eating a bagel and eggs to get a nice breakfast. Then we decided today our plan was to edit in the morning and at night. For the morning session we kept editing the main interview videos. We both had to go over all of the interview videos to cut them to be a little bit shorter since it was a lot of talking. After this Camila and I took a break and we went to Concord to run some errands, then we wanted to get some exercise so we headed to the tennis courts. We got some energy out and played some tennis. Then we headed back to the house and started editing more. It took us a long time and we also wanted to put a lot of time into it to make it look really good as well. The day ended with some dinner and some more editing and research. We then headed to be to get some rest for the next day! Hours today: 8 Hours in total: 48.5 

Editing

After we did some chores we proceeded to keep editing which was very fun and we made sure to be very tedious with every part as we want it to be excellent. We went through all the videos started putting them in, listening to the audios and seeing what fits together. After this we took a break made some dinner. We had some taco bowls which was really tasty. Then we got right back to editing for the rest of the night. And right before bed we watched a movie!
