                                                  Emirate Culture Video

When I start making this video about Emirati Culture I have got more information about our history and culture that before making this video I didn't know about it or even comes to my mind. In the beginning I though that making this movie is going to be hard. Since we start to work in a team with 5 Students, we started to share our ideas and help each other it does make the work easier and better for us. We learn about how emirate people used some old tool like the water well and how they made. Also, we learn about the equipment of the falcon that people were using when hunting with falcons and also the equipment that people put on the camels and the tools people used when go to fishing or dive for oyster. We also learn new things from the tourists about what's famous in their culture and how they think about the Emirate culture. Also we learn a lot about the tough live of our grandparents, and how they used animals, tools and creativity to survive. Moreover, we learn about the changes that happened due to the hard work of our rulers and how did the UAE evolve in a spectacular way. In addition, we found out how that tourism encourage and promote the identity of the Emirate culture and that the Emirate culture is more of a garden salad than a melting pot and that it is because the people who came to the UAE from different countries can keep the aspects of their culture. In the end I would say that the UAE culture is unique in it's own way.
