We are Paul Alzate, Grace Prestamo, and Motahara Whab and are all from Queens. For this project, we chose to learn about the clothing store Zara: the style of clothing that is sold, the type of people that patronize the store , the prices as compared to other retailers, and the satisfaction of the clientele and the employees. Through this small project, we also learned the various facets of iMovie, like the tools it provides to the modern filmmaker, and cool things like flipping clips over in editing mode.
Why did we choose this project? Well, obviously to learn about Zara and advance our skills with the technology Macaulay gives us. Our motivation wasn’t affected at all by the fact that we originally wanted to do our project on ABC, and had to come up with an alternative plan. No! We love Zara! 🙂
We learned about not only iMovies, and the process of recording a video, but we also learned about ourselves and our limitations. Grace learned that she can interview like no else, Motahara learned she can narrate introductions eloquently, and Paul learned that he can be a cameraman if his hands didn’t shake so much.
