Last day in LA/ travel day

May 15th 2023 Day 8

It is officially the last day of our LA excursion and here is how we spent it. We first went our day by grabbing some breakfast at Alfreds which is this coffee shop that is close to my house. We chilled and ate and discussed what we wanted to accomplish for the day. In which we decided to get some exercise so we went to play tennis for almost an hour and a half. It was so much fun to be outside and get a sweat in, Camila and I have a lot of fun playing against each other. After this we decided to go to Venice and walk around on Abbot Kinney which is this road with a lot of shops. We wanted to find some more vintage shops to take some more videos for our documentary. It was a success and we got some more footage. We have around 110 videos worth of footage and we are planning to the documentary to be around 30-40 minutes, so we feel like we succeeded. It was an amazing week and I am really sad to leave especially since we learned so much and got to explore. Our flight is at 9:45pm and we have a red eye back to Boston so it is a long travel day ahead of us. I am sad to leave but excited for the next week to put this all together.

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

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

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
