Rough plan

The structure of the video essay will follow the structure of the thesis. That means it will have three main parts, according to the three chapters.

I am currently making a rough plan with the clips I want to use both with paper on the wall and in Kdenlive.

Introduction

In the introduction, the main concepts will be introduced:

  • Meal replacements
  • Techno-solutionism from Silicon Valley

Chapter 1

The first chapter will deal with gender representations in cooking, as well as past attempts at imagining a future in which cooking and eating will be completely different.

Main topics to be tackled:

  • Separation of kitchen labour according to gender
          - side by side comparison of Martha Rosler and Julia Child with great synchronization between the two
          - man in the kitchen trying to do something fancy but fails because he is a man
  • Post-mom economy
          - since I can't find any videos describing this concept, I will do voice-over/subtitle plus videos from various 
            services that fit into this category
  • Futurist ideas on food (coming from suffragettes, all the way to SF)

Chapter 2

Chapter 3

End
