Production Log- 1

This week me and my peers filmed our pitches for the presentation proposals that we are considering. For my pitch I spoke about my first idea which was of a Lifestyle show, for which I have decided to make a cooking show. I went through explaining the reasons behind my decision including my target audience. Then I spoke about what my alternatives would be if my cooking show was to not go to plan, these were a chat show and continuity announcer. I thoroughly thought about the other options of TV presenting and these two stood out to me because of there styles and effectiveness. 

Similarly, I went through them each explaining why I would do them, but also what things may go wrong logistically that I would have to consider.

Rehearsal Cooking Show 1




Evaluation:
This is my rehearsal for my Lifestyle cooking show, I made this rehearsal in one of the classrooms in school and before I pressed the record button I made sure to practice what I'll say multiple times so that I didn't hesitate in front of the camera when it was recording. I began with ''Hello and welcome to another episode in Nada's kitchen''.

Middle Eastern Deserts --- Kanafeh

Origins

For most people, there is nothing they'd like best than a nice concluding dish to end their meal, something sweet, soft and simple. I have chosen to make this dessert for my lifestyle show because of it being a notable dish that is widely sold and eaten in many Arab countries one of them being my own. 
This is a classic Palestinian desert originating from the city of Nablas, and is made as a cheesy pastry soaked in sweet syrup.

It is a dessert widely enjoyed by most Arabs in Africa, particularly in Egypt and in the Middle East where it is most popular in countries like Turkey, Lebanon and Israel.
