Gloria's Tailoring

Team:
Adam Liss - Cinematographer, Director, and Editor
Jessika Lopez - Translator and Interviewer


This was one of three short films I produced for AnewAmerica Community Corporation for their annual entrepreneurship gala. The goal was to tell the stories of some of the entrepreneurs they've worked with, and how AnewAmerica helped them start their business.

This video highlights Gloria's Tailoring, a tailoring shop in San Leandro, CA. I was responsible for both shooting the interview and editing together the final film, while reporting back to AnewAmerica for suggestions and corrections. Gloria had a fantastic, inspiring story, and while the shoot was a cinematographic challenge (small, dark hut in a bright parking lot) I really enjoyed producing this one.
