Entry Description

The music video originally meant to entice Chef Mario Batali to come help fundraise money ended up spreading awareness for the earthquakes that occurred in Italy in 2016 and raising over five thousand dollars on GoFundMe. The video follows students as they struggle and ultimately fail to make Pasta All'Amatriciana without the Chef's help.

  • 3/3 2:28 pm - A very cute video- very creative coming up with your own words to the song. The audio was not recorded that well- more time spent on that recording would help. Might have been better not having so many people sing- was hard to understand at times with so many voices. Technically, the use of a tripod would have helped a lot. The variety of shots was good but the quality of those shots could have been better. Take more time in setting up each shot and framing exactly what you want in the frame. Grammatically- one of the lyrics was YOUR and it was spelled YOU in the title. Hopefully, the video did its purpose in getting the chef to your school!
