Photojournalism
A chef day of life
This is project 3, about a Day in the Life on Earth. We were required to find a person that is interesting to me in some aspect and illustrate an excerpt from their life. So, I had chosen the photography style to record the person that I choose. I had chosen a chef to photo shot in this project.
The name of the chef is Bong Chong Wee, 24 years old. He lives in 10th miles. His parent had opened an economy fast food booth in the shop at 10th miles. Since he was studying from the age of three, his parent changed jobs to open economy fast food booth at 10th miles. Then, he started to learn cooking skills from his father and mother. Now, he has 9 years cooking experience. In the year 2009, he was invited to become a chef in pumpkin café. I selected him because he is a hardworking young man, who wants to save money to have wedding and feed his family. In any case hard, hard work is what he had to overcome to achieve.
That was the point that I think his life was very interesting and meaningful for me.

In my photojournalism, I had divided all the time in different screens. The first photojournalism was from 6:00 am until 7:00 am. The sky was still dark and the shop hadn’t open yet. I showed the movement when he started to bring out the entire kitchen utensil before his parent came. Some of the photo I was edited it in black and white style. This is because his booth was inside an old shop. Furthermore, I wanted to let people have the old and unique feeling.

The second photojournalism was from 7:00 am until 8:00 am. I showed how he prepared the food ingredients for his parent to cook in the small thumbnail photo. In that screen I also have shown the environment of his working place. I used some close up shots in this photojournalism to make the whole layout look more interesting. The left hand side got the clock to show the time in that moment. That was the proof of my word. We can see the sky color was still in blue color, this can prove that moment was in the early morning 7:00 pm.

The third photojournalism was from 8:00 am until 9:00 am. The photo was showing how he placed the food into the shelf and the delicious food view. From the photo, we can feel that he was enjoying his life. He liked to smile and his smile can cheer up people moods. I used the line in this photo to make the layout more attractive. The small food photo in the right side was used to highlight the whole layout.

I got to get a photo of when he helped to clean the kitchen in a small thumbnail. The time of the photo was in 11:30 pm.

I was happy with this project. I had created the photojournalism on a Day in the Chef’s Life. The chef was very friendly, studious, sincere, honest, loyal, genial, and helpful. That why he was willing to let me have a photo shooting on his life to help me in this project.
