Rest and research

 May 12th 2023 Day 5 8:30pm


    The day consisted of much less activities and more rest. We have had two very very busy days and today was a day were we got some much needed rest. Camila and I slept in a little bit and were sorta lazy, but then we got up and got our day going. We headed over to the Pacific Palisades which is an area that has some coffee shops and was a quick drive. Once we got there we grabbed some food, checked out some stores and filmed some more content. Then we went to the beach and got some much needed vitamin D, this provided us a lot of time to keep thinking about the documentary. The documentary and what it entails is most definitely extremely vital to the both of us, but we also don’t want to miss out on experiencing LA and what the city offers. We have been making sure to enjoy every moment and cherish every experience. We are so lucky to be here and grateful to experience an amazing city. It has only been three days and we have already had so much fun. I can’t wait to put all of our videos together and reminisce on our time spent here and also appreciate everything we learned from the different people we met with. Tomorrow we are meeting with Kyle Svendsen who is a designer and director for Drew House which is a clothing brand. He is going to give us his insight on sustainable fashion and how his company plays a role in it. So today we made sure to grab some more videos and write a little question sheet for tomorrow!

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...
