My personal favorite projects were “iPods form generation to generation next”, “Transportation around Macaulay”, “Adventures at Barnes and Noble”, “Fresh Experience”, and “I found God on the corner of 65th and Columbus”. The reason that each one of these appealed to me is because of the big influence that each topic has in many peoples lives. For me, I work at the Apple store on 5th avenue- so it was really interesting to see the new 68th street and how others got influenced by it. On top of that, technology has a huge affect in many of our lives- for instance, the fact that this blog exists and I am using my computer to communicate shows how massive of an impact it has. While they did not film very much in the store (you’re actually not allowed to film in Apple stores =) ), it shows how the tools were used. By either uploading the video to youtube or the blog- tools are being used. I’m not sure if I would have done this particular topic, but I did enjoy it. I also liked Transportation around Macaulay because as a New Yorker, all transportation has a huge affect on us! By capturing how the trains are in NYC, anyone can be able to get an idea of how busy, efficient, and dirty \ud83d\ude42 they are. I think that the best way to capture how NYC transit is is only through video. After that, I enjoyed adventures at barnes and noble. The filming was a little shaky, but it was cool to see just how big the store is. I get nervous because I am worried that book stores are slowly going out of business, but thankfully barnes and noble is one of the stores that will be around for a while- due to their ever growing book collection, their appeal to everyone (whether it be through caffeine, book readings to children, or simply browsing) will keep them in business for a while. I REALLY liked the fresh experience video. I thought that it was well edited and informative. The group did a good job on showing the products that Fresh had to offer and by the starting music, it gave a feel for the experience that Fresh provides- relaxing, nice, etc. I wouldn’t have thought to have filmed it and edit it like that, but I really liked it. Lastly, I found god on the Corner of 65th and Columbus appealed to me because I would never have thought to film a church. Not religious myself, I am still extremely interested in places of sanctuary. even though the group was not allowed to film past a certain point, they still captures how calm and peaceful the church was. Overall, great job, Macaulay!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
