From the last update, our project has slowly come together much more.
updated storyboard.
video test of fruit rolling in, cutting+stop motion, and transition between steps.
(vimeo didn't want to upload properly at this point)
example of what text may look like in the video to introduce materials.
some audio/narration options.
script. HOW TO MAKE SANGRIA.
By the end of this video, you
will have learned how to make a bold and authentic sangria, that will taste
better than any store bought version!
history of sangria.
Sangria was first introduced
in the United States during the 1964 World’s Fair, in New York at the Spanish Pavilion.
The recipe is based off of a red wine punch that was served across Europe for
hundreds of years. Since red grapes grow well in Spain a red wine base is the
most authentic wine type to be used in the recipe. Sangria comes from the Spanish word Sangre,
which means blood.
introduce materials.
What kind of materials will
you need to make this mouth-watering red wine mixture?
spoon
cutting board
knife
glass
pitcher
introduce fruits(+how to pick).
ORANGE. How to choose the best? Do not choose one that has green; look for a warm,
yellow-orange color. You should be able to lightly squeeze the orange in your
hand and it stretch back to its original shape.
LIME. How to choose a lime? Limes should be plump and heavy; firm but not hard to
the touch. The skin should be shiny, smooth, and green.
LEMON. How to choose a lemon? The lemon, just like the lime should be firm and
heavy. And the skin should be shiny, smooth and yellow without cuts or
blemishes.
STRAWBERRY. How to choose a strawberry? Choose strawberries that are plump, firm and bright
red. Dark red and brown indicate that the fruit has over ripened. Strawberries
that are more light red or green are not yet ripened.
PEACH. How to choose a peach? Squeeze the peach, it should give slightly, not
completely mush or be too firm. There should also be a sweet smell to the peach
itself.
PINEAPPLE. How to choose a pineapple? A pineapple ready to eat should feel heavy for its
size as well as have a sweet, fruit fragrance. If the pineapple that you choose
is not ready to be eaten, you can replace with canned pineapple.
introduce other materials.
WINE. To
stay authentic you should buy a red wine, but if you prefer your mixture to be
sweeter, feel free to replace with white. The exact brand doesn’t particularly
matter, the cheaper the better in this instant. But we are using
_______________.
For the Brandy, Lemonade and Ginger Ale, the specific brand does not really matter. Just
choose one that you know you like or will go well.
For this video we are using
____________for the Brandy, __________for the lemonade and __________for the
Ginger Ale.
Cutting+Knife Introduction.
cut citrus.
We
are going to use a santoku knife. You can use whatever slicing knife you have
what matter is how you use it. How you hold the knife is essential when using
any knife.
Never
hold a knife like you are in a back ally shank fight. Place your pointer and
thumb at the heel of the blade this gives the most control. Place your hand one
the orange with your knuckles back. Use your knuckle to guide the knife [never
let the blade go over your knuckles!].
do
not push down this is wrong instead pull back and let the blades weight go down
and you have made a slice. Now continue for the rest of the citrus. Keep a few
lemon slices for garnishing later.
cut strawberry.
The
strawberry requires a different beast. This is a paring knife. Looks like you
remember how to use the other knife but this is a different knife so that’s
wrong. Although it sounds counter intuitive you’re going to face the blade
towards you and feed the fruit towards it this will give you a lot of control.
cut peach.
Peaches
have pits so it also requires a different method. Cut to the pit and circle the
fruit. Repeat this step to the perpendicular to the cut you just made. Then you
simply twist then pull out the pit.
cut pineapple.
Finally
the pineapple is not as hard as you think first let’s remove top and bottom.
Stand it upright then cut along the edges removing as little of the fresh as
possible. With your paring knife you remove any excess skin. Then finally to
remove the core you will use the paring knife to cut around the core and it
will just pop out
pour the wine into pitcher. mix in fruit. add
lemonade. add sugar.
Now
to start mixing together the ingredients. First we add the wine. As mentioned
before you can use what ever wine you’d like this there are dozens of different
sangria recipes.
then
we add in the fruits. Slowly add them in without splashing and with your spoon
start stirring it
Next
add in the 1/2 cup of lemonade. The frozen stuff works fine also. KEEP
STIRRING!
After
that comes the sugar. Granulated sugar, brown sugar, liquid sugar it all works
fine. You can even use artificial sweeteners if you prefers. DON’T STOP
STIRRING!
add brandy.
Add in two shots of flavored
Brandy.
add ice.
Add in 1 or 2 cups of ice to help further chill the drink OR feel free to chill the beverage overnight.
introduce glass. pour into glass.
add in ginger ale.
Add as much ginger ale as
wanted to achieve your ginger ale to alcohol ratio.
add lemon slice/garnish. enjoy the drink.
Kidwell+class feedback.
*make the fruit roll
*likes the transition with music
*likes voice narration option 1
*try putting the table against a window and shooting with natural light
*closer to where we need to be at this point, not quite at it
