Idea: Exploring the Shanghai restaurant scene
For our video project, we will pick three different restaurants in Shanghai and film our experiences there. For cuisine, we are thinking of covering one Shanghainese restaurant, one international restaurant, and one local street food market. For each place, we will provide some cultural context, information about the restaurant and menu, and try to interview someone who works there. The purpose of this video is to give the audience some insight into the Shanghai restaurant scene, hoping that after watching the video, they will want to explore a wider variety of foods.
For each experience, we will film the surrounding area / how we get there, the restaurant itself, and the food. For the interactivity part, the user gets to choose which place to start with, and we will give the user the option to pick between a few different dishes on the menu. For each place, we will record contextual sounds and take note of any background music to layer in during production.
