“After nourishment, shelter and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world.” -Philip Pullman

It’s been amazing to see the rise in short-form food filmmakers over the years. I remember when I launched my series at the end of 2009, I was only one of a small handful of food filmmakers in the scene, grinding out stories, trying to make an impact through video storytelling. Now, there’s a lot more faces out there. A lot more series producing beautiful videos about the craft of making food. In many ways, it makes food more accessible, less mysterious. We all benefit.

It’s a great honor to be recognized by Saveur Magazine as a finalist for Best Use of Video in this year’s Best Food Blog Awards 2014. I’m a huge fan of the magazine, especially their food travel essays. I hope you come out to vote (here). It would really be great to have your support.

Happy Viewing! And best of luck to all the awesome finalists.
