Interview with Drew House

 May 13th 7:30pm 


    Another day another interview for Camila and I. Today we woke up and had our interview at 11am, so we decided to again go get some coffee to start our morning. After that we got ready to go to the meeting, and in the car prepared some questions. Once we got to the cafe S.O.L which means strings of light, we met with Kyle Svendsen who is the director of product  of Drew House. Kyle has been in the fashion industry for many years and has worked previously with Jermey Scott, and American Apparel. He has had a lot of experience and was the perfect person for our documentary. Drew House is Justin Biebers company there clothing consists of shirts, sweatshirts, sweatpants, and anything else they feel like making.  Kyle gave us his insight on sustainability in the industry overall, and also within Drew House. Kyle provided us with so much new information and really changed our perspectives on our documentary. His experience really shows throughout the videos that we took and it was really fun to listen to him talk about everything that we have been interested in. After this meeting, we went to the Silverlake Flea Market to see where all the sustainability takes place. Pretty much everything at the Silverlake Flea Market is used and a its all small vendors. It’s a really cool unique place where you can find unique pieces of clothing for reasonable prices. Camila and I had a lot of fun walking around and checking it out, we both found some new pieces to add to our wardrobe. Furthermore to end the day we went to dinner and finished off the day with some much needed rest. Another great day on the west coast!

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...

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...

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 edi...
