The one thing I look forward to every Sunday morning has to be Sunday brunch. I’m not sure what makes it so appealing to me: the food? the mimosas? or the fact that it’s socially acceptable to wake up around 11AM and have my first meal be around noon? Maybe it’s all of the above, who knows!

Anyways, for this assignment, I chose to teach ya’ll how to make a component of my favourite brunch dish (eggs benedict), the poached egg. I wanted to teach you how to make eggs benedict, but to be honest, it would have been closer to a 10 minute documentary rather than a 30 second one. Here’s the video I made today:

As with all of my other video projects, I edited this on iMovie. After doing yesterday’s assignment with the “A Day in My Life” video, I feel really comfortable using iMovie now. Editing is really a breeze! Lookie:

Anyways, for this video, I chose to challenge myself a little by adding in different shots/angles of me cooking (I didn’t really mind because that meant making two poached eggs!) as well as layering the audio (which I didn’t really do in my last two video projects). Also, I wanted the opening sequence and credits to show the video in the background rather than a black screen (like my other videos). I thought it was going to be hard to figure out, but I didn’t even have to end up doing anything at all. It’s like iMovie read my mind!

But yeah, that’s really it! If you want to learn how to make eggs benedict, I would recommend watching this video by Byron Talbott. He does an amazing job of making amazing dishes while making it seem easy and effortless!

Let me know if you try making a poached egg! I would love to exchange tips and tricks (:
