The City Is Their Catwalk!

Project By: Amira Hassan, Kimberly Charnovesky, Andrea Cella, Nuwan Panditaratne-CSI.

1. What did you do?
For our project, we walked around the streets of NYC and areas surrounding 67th street paying close attention to how Fashion and style can be found everywhere. We entered different stores, attempted to interview people who work there to try and get their take on how fashion impacts the people of New York.

2. Why did you choose it?
There is no question that Fashion sense is an important characteristic of many New Yorkers. It is a form of self expression and gives a sense of belonging and identity.

3. What did you learn?
What we learned is that New Yorkers might just be the most fashionable people on the planet 😀 !

Rediscovering the Mac Store

What did you do?

Our group went on an enlivened and thrilling exploration at the Apple store on Broadway at West 67th Street near Macaulay. We tried using different Apple products such as AppleTV, iPod Touch, iPhone, etc. and browsed through the various softwares and hardwares.

Why did you choose it?

Apple is awesome! Seriously. We love our MacBook Pros.

What did you learn?

We learned that we could clean our laptop screens in the Apple store with their spray. There were many graphic programs on display also. We also found out that the AppleTV plays Youtube HD videos. The iPad is coming out in late March and the Apple store will have it on the first day! We used iMovie to put this video together and learned some techniques.

MAC-aulay vs PC

We created a video skit highlighting the benefits of Macintosh operating system compared to the Windows operating system. The video was shot on location at the Apple Store at Broadway and W67th Street.

We chose to highlight the Apple store because the Macs are an integral part of the lives of Macaulay students. The Apple Store is one of the newest and most dominant additions to the West 67th Street Business District.

We learnt that people are not willing to be recorded on camera and that you cannot film any Apple Store employee. And if we work as group, we can come up with many interesting ideas. We learned that it is important to carefully plan out the project before we jump into it. We helped each other to know the applications better such as iMovie and Garageband.
