== Mukbang ==


Muk-bang or mukbang (Korean: 먹방, lit. "eating broadcast") is a type of performance in which someone eats large quantities of food, while interacting with their audience, for apparent entertainment value. Usually done through a webcast, muk-bang became popular in South Korea in the late 2000s. - according to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muk-bang Wikipedia].
When you watch a Mukbang video you see a person (mostly little Korean girls) unpacking and eating the food. This can take for hours sometimes. Meanwhile the person explains what she is eating and how she likes it. At the sometime the person is in contact with an audience. Through a lifestream the audience can ask questions and talk to the person who is eating. There are several hypotheses why Mukbang is popular. One could is the rise of one-person households in Korea and by watching people eat it looks like you are eating (or at least socializing) with someone else.

== Mukbang: Nr. 39 ==
I want to extend my project Nr. 39 by integrating Mukbang. I want to shoot videos of me while eating the Nr. 39-dish.
There are 2 options:
#Shoot video in the restaurant
#Shoot video in a created environment (studio).
'''Concerns shooting in restaurant:'''
I'm I allowed to shoot in a restaurant? And if so, in which extend do I have freedom to do what I want? What to do with other people in the restaurants? Do I disturb them? Can I use them in my videos as extras?
I can ask permission to do so, but the actually shooting needs preparation. Second, how do I act myself when there is a camera on me, while eating a dish alone in a restaurant? How do I deal with events that might occur out of my pre-thought script?
'''Concerns shooting in studio:'''
A solution to have more control, more confidence is to do a Mukbang-video in ste studio. By doing that I can create my own environment and prepare myself mentally better for the performance, there is more control. The problem with a studio setting is how to get the food there? Second an important element of my project Nr. 39 is a photo of a dish prepared and composited by the restaurants chef and taken in that restaurant. By for example bringing the food (take away) to the studio I miss the element of composition by the chef and the table-decoration of the restaurant.
To order a Nr. 39 and let it bring to the studio by a courier can be interesting. To courier can put the food on the table and by doing so is part of the video, but the money transaction is something I would like to keep outside the video. Concern: What if there is no option for a courier?
'''Script:'''
Script: for eating Nr. 39 in restaurant:
*Start filming when seated
*Waitress brings menu and ask for drink
*Order drink
*Look into menu and order the Nr. 39-dish
*Wait for dish to come, prepare for shooting (make space for shooting, prepare phone)
*When arrived, make photo
*Eat Nr. 39-dish
*When finished, ask for bill
*Pay and leave the restaurant
Script: for ordering Nr. 39 and ask courier to bring:
Make sure that the setting is clear and well prepared in composition, but also in attributes (for example restaurant paper)
*Start filming(?)
*Order Nr. 39 dish by telephone (record the conversation)
*Wait for courier to deliver, prepare for shoot
*Courier puts food on table, because of that courier is visible and takes part in the video
*Unpack the food, keep table and setting clean (klinisch), leave the boxes of food on table. Get rid of the packaging (paper)
*Open the boxes of food and make a composition on the plate
*Make photo of the composition ---> consider extra camera who records composition from above (close-up).
*Eat Nr. 39-dish
*When finished, video stops.
How to conrol the courier? How to make him part of the video? Can the courier be fake?
Script: for take away Nr. 39:
*Go to a restaurant, preferable take away restaurant
*Order Nr. 39-dish
*Back at the set, ask somebody to bring it to you (like a courier)
*Unpack the food, keep table and setting clean (klinisch), leave the boxes of food on table. Get rid of the packaging (paper)
*Open the boxes of food and make a composition on the plate
*Make photo of the composition ---> consider extra camera who records composition from above (close-up).
*Eat Nr. 39-dish
*When finished, video stops.
