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

Day 4

  May 11 2023, 6:30pm         Today was the day we met with Santiago Marcos who is our mentor. We got up around 8am and went and walked to grab some coffee to start our day. We had our meeting at 1pm, so we had some time before to relax and draft some questions that we were curious about to ask. Then we headed over to our meeting to a restaurant/cafe called Zinc. At Zinc we sat down and got to talk to Santiago about our project, what it entails and how we can make it the best. Camila and I talked a lot about our ideas and what we have been thinking it should look like. Santiago gave us a lot of really great advice and gave us some documentary recommendations to watch to get some creative ideas from. He also gave us a lot of little tips for the audio, soundtrack and how to draw the audience into the documentary. It provided us a lot of insight and a lot of inspiration for our documentary. Our meeting was very exciting and helpful for our project. Furthermore...

Editing

  May 17th 2023     Today was a sufficient day of editing. Camila and I woke up up made some breakfast and then did some organizing and laundry. 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!

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. Cropp...
