Travel day and editing

May 16th 2023

It was a very prolonged travel day as we had taken the red eye back from LA yesterday at 9:45pm. Camila and I got back to her house around 9am after the extended travel from the airport to bus to car. We arrived relieved and happy to try to catch some sleep after a restless night. Once I got some much needed rest, we made some lunch and then grabbed our computers to go over all of the footage. We wanted to go over everything that we filmed to see what we can use and what will be good to put into the documentary. I was really excited to see all of the videos and see everything that we got videos of. We are going to continue keep editing for the rest of the week and keep culminating this project. Today was a really long tiring day but we made sure to edit for a while after we rested to get some progress. After the editing we made dinner and then proceeded to watch 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. 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
