ON THE SET: Taping Cutaway Scenes
by Chef Mitch

This image is a "screen capture" from video footage shot yesterday on the Kitchen Queers "dining room" set. We were taping "cutaway" scenes for Episode 5. Cutaway scenes, (sometimes called cut-in scenes or cut-in shots), are video segments that are interspersed with the other footage to help narrate the story as the action unfolds. This is a technique that is popular in reality TV shows and instructional videos.

COCKTAIL HOUR: Sloe Gin Fizz
by Chef Mitch

I love the intense red color of this cocktail, and it's perfect for events this time of year. And the Sapphire Gin gives the drink that hint of juniper. It's easy to make, find the recipe and photo tutorial here: http://www.kitchenqueers.com/beverage/sloeginfizz/
