MUCHO RUIDO

Annais Yucra is a Fashion Designer based in Peru.

She study in Nottingham Trent University and then came back to Peru to develope her entire life. She talks about gender violence in her designes. He got her inspiration fron her grandmother, she was a native Peruvian. She did not know how to speak Spanish and learnt it when she was older. In every collection you can hear her own voice; diversity, gender violence and matriarchy.

She has a very powerful voice. She is constantly putting into society the diferente gender violence cases with her garments.

Peruvian Brand based in Paris

The story of D.N.I. , the Peruvian brand based in Paris is very unique. The brand started in 2019 with their first collection “A ti Perú” that means “For you Peru”. Pablo and his brother (both twins) moved to Paris when they were 12 years old because the partner of their mom lived there.

They both study trends of fashion but in different areas. The both worked in big fashion companies in Paris and started a collective brand. They sold the designes in Asia in different pop-up stores. At the end, they realized they were the only ones doing all the work and they wanted to tell their own narrative, so they stopped doing the collective brand and started their own, DNI.

“A ti Perú” is a collection inspired in all the memories they have of their 12 years living in Peru. DNI talks about identity and how it can tell a story.

All the interview is recorded, I might use it as a voice over for the docu.

Notes

• Changing the start point to get new results and even better results.
• Connection between naturalism and technology
• Technology is just a tool
• Humans have to be intelligent enough to use this tool in a good way
• You can talk about naturalism with this tool
• Have fun
• Have fun when you are creating
• Dont care about anything else
• Kill the ego
• Go back to the roots and create something contemporary with that. Dont create exactly the same traditional thing.

I wont put the whole interview, but I recorded it.

I am gonna make this happen. I need the docu for the pitch and the experimental film for the test. So I need to create a way of self-documentation with the persons I want to interview as an example for the pitch. For the experimental test I think I am gonna try to create something with animation. Not sure yet, but I am taking drawing classes in my Ipad and I am trying to get something good for me and my project. I re-write the first 3 scenes of the script, so I dont loose my objective.

I am trying to get a routine, and some times it works some time it doesnt. Every day I try to dance a little bit and then do some abs and core exercises in the mat. I watch one short film from the list (I saw today the fourth one) while I am having breakfast. Then I try to do a little bit of drawing in mi Ipad or sketch book. If I am with a really good mood I will try adobe premiere and edit something, and well yesterday I was in a very good mood.

So I edited one mood fashion film of 40 seconds and I actually liked it. I used some tracks from epidemic sound. Also I created a IGTV account, so know my IG has IGTV! haha so cool!

I am gonna do this for 2 more videos that I have. Then I will re edit my film and change it to something with more coronavirus context. Like the feeling of home I think it might fit.

“Hey there!” was what I had to say for 4 days the last week while I was working in the vintage store. I was so afraid someone will get coronavirus, but at the same time I needed to show everything was good for the costumers. Last weekend was a very special one.

On Thursday I talked with my boyfriend and we decided it was crazy for him to travel from Peru to England. In that moment there was no restriction to travel between those countries, but everything was changing so fast we needed to make our own decisions. Two days later the Peruvian government decided to close the borders and cancel every single flight. No one could get out nor get in, no matter if you were Peruvian or not you were stuck in the country you were. The bad thing about that decision was that Peruvians out of the country in vacation or business trips were left to their luck with no answers of the government. The good things about it were that no more people would come inside Peru to spread the virus.

We have to understand that Peru is a poor country; having only 400 UCI beds for the whole country and mainly those beds are in the capital city. Another fact is that more than 3 millions of persons dont have access to water making it more difficult to vulnerable areas. Things are difficult back home and at the same time people with so many privileges instead of helping they are posting the good things about quarantine. I get that some of us are privileged; having the access to water and having money to buy food and mostly because we have worked for that, but a lot of them does not have access to education neither to basic things. Sometimes you just need to keep it to yourself.

Our government is trying to help everyone. They have inject 30 millions to different areas; health, vulnerable zones, policemen and more. They are giving 100 pounds to the poorest families, so they wont go out to work. This sounds little but we do not have the same economy as other countries and I am sure there are worst countries than mine.

Is really sad to watch the news now a days. I feel i know everything about coronavirus and yet I cannot do anything. On Thursday 19th the worst happened in Peru. The first death from coronavirus happened and then 2 more. One old person of 62 died in his house by himself because the health system didnt approach in the time he expected too. I woke up today and I am trying 100% to move, dance do some exercise and try to focus in my own projects but it is difficult to stop caring about others.

It is difficult not to be home with the ones you love. It sucks that I could be helping older people with their grocery shopping or with their meds. Thats why my friend Brisa (Peruvian as well living in London) send me a link about volunteer for doing those things in your area. I already sign in. I know a lot of persons die every single day and it sucks, but I guess it is different when you know you can be spreading that fucking virus to a lot of people.

Today is my 6th day of self-isolation.
