I haven't decided what I'm going to do my Capstone on, so I'll be listing three ideas. They're all pretty vague at this point. I'm trying to come up with ways to make a link between the skills I picked up in college and baking (culinary baking). My ideas are pretty vague right now, and I feel like I'd really need to expand on all of them before they'd be capstone worthy.
1. Some sort of video, but not a cooking show type of thing. I was thinking of making something similar to a speed painting, but with some sort of really fancy dessert instead. Maybe even venture into making things with fondant.
2. Edible games. It sounds weird. An example of what I mean would be, say... An edible game of chess, where you've got mini cupcakes and chess pieces made out of fondant or icing or something on top. Maybe I could design my own game rather than redesigning one.
3. I could brand myself. With this, I could create a website (& logo) for myself that would include a gallery of desserts that I've made, an area for recipes I've created, a blog, and a place for cooking with Panda videos.
Some things that inspired me... my love of baking, a fondness for watching speed painting videos on youtube, the cooking bloggers that I follow (50+), and a general love of games.

ReplyDeleteEdible games sounds awesome! I'd be down with a chess set made with fondant. This would be quite an original idea. I'm not sure how that fits into New Media studies, but I love it.

ReplyDeleteEdible games sound fun and filling at the same time lol.
the speed painting/fondant dessert sound like a cool idea. i don't think i've seen this done before, so it would be a cool video. the concept of edible games is a good idea too :) -kelsey dunning

ReplyDeleteYou could make cookies and cakes with QR code wrappers ? idk, just a thought. No zombie ARG?

What if you made a large cake type things that's decorated however, and used it as a projection surface? You could make a video that uses the unique shape of the baked surface in creative ways. (also a vague idea, but it would bring media and baking together!)

I like the idea! I'm still not sure what I want to do, so anything that can bridge media with baking is killer. Thanks. :)

ReplyDeletehaha, that's cool with the speed paint. I never heard that done with a food before. Oh... I have a link for you... watch this!

I think this would be really cool... of course, it's already been done really well (and insanely complicated..) here, but maybe you can draw inspiration off it.
That's awesome! Thanks for the video, man.

ReplyDeleteOMNOOOOMS! Also, you reminded me I need to bake bread tonight.
ok, seriously. the edible game was enough to catch my eye. A fun idea for sure. All I can say is, yes, making your own game would be a better idea. Incorporate the gameplay into the baking and eating process. Something along the line of certain flavors equal certain things in the game, or earning a certain treat or doing something good in the game. A bit vague, I know, but a start.
ReplyDeleteJessica Faux - Total agreement with Charles Morgan. Make your own game. Doesn't have to be complicated just make something sweet and simple (lol). Or you could spend a good chunk of time making the mechanics since the cooking part (although time consuming in its own right) is the easiest part of the project. However, the certain flavors meaning certain things can suck; I know I don't like to eat a raspberry cake and some people (believe it or not) don't like chocolate. Just something to watch out for.
