Tastemade App Tutorial

Man: "Thanks for taking the time to look at the Taste Made mobile app.

First and foremost, the app allows you to discover videos of the most loved food destinations from around the world.

This is the feature tab.

Here we are curating the best videos from around the community.

The app allows you to watch videos from Taste Makers around the world or your friends,

and you can even find videos of places nearby.

And, of course, this is a community, so everyone has their own profiles.

The thing we are most excited about is that these videos are shot and uploaded all from within the app.

Let me show you how it works.

When you enter the studio mode, you'll notice it actually locks in landscape mode for you.

The view gives you a lot more room to work with.

The app uses geo-location to find the restaurant you're in.

You also have the option of tapping the title, which will bring up a list of locations in your area.

So, we have entered Huckleberry Cafe & Bakery, as we have picked up some delicious breakfast items to show you.

Now, the first thing we want to do is shoot our 10-sec. introduction.

So, I simply go to that tile and click tap to open up the camera.

I've got our producer here, Courtney, who is going to show us these amazing baked goods."

Courtney: "I'm here in our Brooklyn kitchen and I have a stockpile of baked goods from my favorite

breakfast place in Santa Monica, Huckleberry.

I can't wait to dig in."

Man: "Now that we are done shooting our introduction, we are going to move on to take our ambiance shots.

So, simply tap to open up the camera.

And you will notice there is a progress bar at the bottom that is divided into 5 segments.

You can take up to five 3-sec. shots.

So, let's take a few shots.

What you want to do is make sure you are giving people of feel of the place you are at,

almost like they are there.

So, I took one shot there.

And another shot.

In order to do this, you simply tap and hold on the record button.

Once you are done taking your ambiance shots, you can actually tap to review them.

In this view you can review, edit, or change the order of them.

What I'm going to do, is move this particular shot, over to the front of the video.

So I'm going to do that.

Then just click done.

So, now we are on to the meal section.

Here you have 15 sec. to really talk about the dish.

Take it away, Courtney!"

Courtney: "Here we have some of Huckleberry's most talked about items:

We have the special doughnut of the day with coconut frosting,

a blueberry crustada, some of their little cupcakes, and my favorite, the chocolate croissant."

Man: "So now we are going to take a few more shots of the food.

We tap, and it opens up the camera.

We take a few photos.

So, the last thing we want to do is shoot a 10-sec. wrap-up.

Here you want to emphasize a few of the tips and reasons why you love the place."

Courtney: "Those baked goods were so delicious.

I do have a tip for you -

Make sure you get to Huckleberry before 10 a.m.,

because this is a limited supply and they will run out."

Man: "In just a few minutes we shot all of our clips.

Now we are going to play with some of the unique features in the app.

Tapping on the opening credits allows you to choose between various themes.

Jazz music in background

Latin music in background

Drum beats in background

We found one that we like and now we are going to click done.

Next, we are going to spice up our video by picking from a library of filters.

I'm going to select the sugar filter because it adds a nice contrast and venuette.

Then, click done.

It's going to apply the filter in real time and show you the before & after.

Any good editor has to preview their work before they send it out.

Hitting preview will assemble the entire episode together.

This is really where the magic happens."

Man: "Everything looks awesome, so lastly we are going to pick a thumbnail and a caption.

So, I love this shot of the doughnut, so we're going to select that one.

So, everything looks great.

The last thing we are going to do is simply hit send

and share it with the world.

You can see the video preview while the app is preparing to send the episode.

As you just saw, we make it possible for anyone to make amazing videos all on their I-phone.

Thanks for watching."
