For people who love food or love to cook, they will enjoy the opportunity to temporarily get into the mind of someone who cooks for many, very often in exclusive places, or for dignitaries, or in their own restaurant that has been built on blood, sweat and tears. Each scenario offers a different set of circumstances, but the unifying factor is the food—always the food. This is real-life drama, set to food.

One of my clients, Chef Franco Lania has become good at making videos for his cooking demonstrations. For me, this has really been great to watch. When I first began working with him in February of 2010, he didn’t have too much experience with video. But now he has a whole catalog of his videos on his You Tube and Vimeo channels. And…he edits them!
