Production 2- ”focus of your work”

Blogpost 3 (1-5-2021) 

During the break I have taken the pictures for my magazines as well as information I needed from the interviews with Gianni and Peppe. I must say I had lots of fun taking the pictures especially as the cooks and waiters would often play around with me to make me feel more in my comfort zone. I will be uploading these pictures in InDesign tomorrow so that I can start getting ready for putting together the portfolio project. I am also working on picking quotes to use in the feature article, that match my theme and tone, but not so much the style as I hope to “spice it up” with them. I will be looking specifically at what both Peppe and Gianni said about introducing and maintaining the main values of our traditional Italian culture in not only the dishes, but also the work ethics transmitted to the workers and the place itself. I am only conflicted as to whether I should include their backstory or not as it does not really matter in my article.

As for Peppe, owner of “ Napoule ’”,  I will specifically  be focused  on tradition. He has been in the restaurant business for the past 15 years, ...

Storyboard

  Creating a storyboard has been the most fun  part of the project so far; I had not gotten the chance to be creative and draw for an assignment in a very long time, and I was very pleased to do it. It gave insight on what my final project should look like when I go to turn it in, and I feel good about the ideas that I came up with, because they allowed me to really visualize the final project.  Reading the article “ Filmmaking across the curriculum: a beginner's guide” I learned that  “ This is where you plan the composition and framing of the shots for your production. Storyboards are used for both animation and live action productions.” A storyboard is essentially your outli ne, which guides you to your end product. The article   “ Storyboard your way to success also recognizes that it is “a fle xible and comprehensive tool that can be used by a group to devise creative concepts” and I could not agree with it mo re.
