"p. terry's" - it just made me hungry


so i took "intro to documentary" this semester, and, like my screenwriting class, i became known as the girl who would bring baked goods. unfortunately this class was much less forgiving if i ever showed up empty-handed... including the teacher.

one day we screened one of my projects, and i brought cookies. after class, my teacher complimented me on the cookies.... and only the cookies. like many of my other film classes, these kids suggested i take up professional cake decorating if my career in hollywood doesn't work out. who wants to make movies about blue cat people anyway? for a group of kids with huge dreams, we are sometimes incredibly realistic, rational, and unsupportive. i love it.

anyway, one of my classmates did his project on p.terry's burger stand. talking about food is one thing, but watching it in HD, that's just cruel. even though this was not my project, i felt it was easiest to translate to cake. sadly, my teacher required that this collaboration of ideas be documented:


strangely, no one suggested i consider modeling as a back-up career. however, i can honestly say that this photo encapsulates how truly awkward it was in this moment. anyway, if you've got some time, check out the p. terry's doc.

and you can check out the doc my partner and i made as well.

and check out all the other videos, and everything else we did this semester.

TOTAL DECORATING TIME: 45 minutes + 1 threat to be sued in the midst of making our project

never been better,
