Our group (Troy and I) has chosen the online video example “Food Porn” from “The Katering Show”. If we contextualise this work/project in relation to the studio activities so far (the mindmapping and personal case studies) it would be placed in the genre of satirical online video practice. We will produce a number of sketches which analyse the narrative/non-narrative form of this online video practice. Each of these sketches will focus on different aspects of the work/project as a way to understand how it has been made and how relations have been formed between shots to create a narrative/non-narrative structure.
Ideas:
1. Running Water + Kettle Boiling – The show itself is made so that it laughs and ridicules other cooking programs, adding in long shots of cooking or running water to the point where it’s comical.
2.The Final Food Shot – Similar to idea no.1 during the final scenes after a plate is produced there is often many shots showing off the food and the way it looks, this is done with many close up scenes and pans.
3. Cupcake Construction – in this particular episode we see the two girls decorating the cupcake with numerous objects that are not actually suppose to be in the cupcake. I attempted to create a similar video of that scene.
5. “Booze Revooze” – Reviewing alcohol like in the episode (similar to idea 3)
6. Wine Drinking
7. Random Conversation – mimcking the types of conversations they have in “The Katering Show”
8. Makeup Tutorial – Similar to the cooking, however instead of food I was thinking of doing a makeup tutorial that is going to be completely hilarious and over the top.
