Japanese culture is so interesting. They even have a phrase that means “putting your knees together and drinking.” We were grateful to work with @gekkeikansake and @gekkeikansake_usa on this project for @californiarice. Visit their page for the full story about their special relationship to #rice and #water
And thank you to @earthkitchen.ama for collaborating with us and helping with the translation!

Chef @giosarmi was such a joy to work with. He and his team at @thekitchenrestaurant are using #California #Rice so uniquely, and we’re grateful for their enthusiasm and participation in this project.
Here’s a companion piece to the main video we made with @californiarice, that shows Gio’s motivation and how he approaches each dinner service.

Chef @billykruface916 grew up not expecting to be a chef. Now he’s a #JamesBeard award winner with one of the most iconic #Japanese restaurants in #Sacramento, @krusacramento. Get in there and order the Sunshine Roll.

Here’s a companion piece we produced with @binchoyaki for @californiarice.
Chef Craig Takehara admits that he’s a kitchen guy who likes making #Japanese soul food more than sushi. These rice balls are one of many traditional non-sushi Japanese dishes featured on his menu, and because of where our rice comes from, they might be the best rice balls in the world!

@juancbarajas is a popular guy in the #sacramento food scene. As chef and owner at @savorywoodland and president of @slowfoodyolo, Juan values the relationship he has with farmers and growers throughout the region.
While we were shooting this video, a local farmer randomly dropped by with a case of fresh peaches, just to share. They were a nice compliment to the #Heirloom #Tomato #Risotto that Juan and his brother @tobybarajas prepared for is.

@aioli_bodega opened when @abellarbisalah was just 9 years old. It’s his family’s restaurant; He and his father Chef Reda are proud to bring authentic Spanish flavors to our region, especially with their diverse selections of paella.
#Paella is rice in a frying pan mixed with whatever you have on hand, which varies region to region. Our favorite quote about #rice comes from Aziz in this video, when he calls each grain a “little ball of flavor,” and he’s not wrong. This paella packs a serious punch.

Chef @mulvaneyinsac pioneered the @sacfarm2fork movement in #Sacramento over a decade ago. Celebrating every year on the #TowerBridge is significant, because it is the gateway that connects Sacramento and Yolo counties - the urban with the rural, the chefs with the farmers. And #rice, just like every other ingredient, tastes better when it’s fresher. Local and fresh rice retains it’s earthiness, and a little bit more moisture which gives it more fluffiness. That really came through in this pork fried rice that chef quickly whipped together for us.

Chef @chefchrisbarnum admitted that he wouldn’t make a very good employee because he likes doing things his own way, so he opened @eatatlocalis, where he can craft the dishes he wants to make based on his personal experiences around the world. It earned him a #michelinstar, so he must be doing something right.

After 3 years in corporate production, marketing and advertising, it’s time we learned more about unscripted reality TV. The #RealscreenSummit did not disappoint. Our first show, Landscape 101, has three episodes up on Amazon Prime, and we hope that’s the first of many new series we get to create and develop for television. Especially if doing so keeps us connected with all the great people we met at this conference. Thanks for having us @realscreen, we’ll see you on the next one!#reality #television #unscripted #conference #production #network #series #pitch #global
Four different #welding sequences from four different projects. Technically one of them is a circular saw, but the #sparks are still cool. We realized we’ve done enough #construction storytelling to have this nice compilation, and we’re grateful for the S&Q function on the @sonycine #fx6 that lets us quickly swap between frame rates to get these cool slow-motion shots.
Projects:
1. Ag programs at Davis High School @djusdffa
2. Recruitment for Matheson Trucking @mathesoncompanies
3. Rocktane Gas and Hard Rock Live development @hardrocklivesac

Twelve interviews in 2 days in an underground bank vault. This was a unique one for sure. Thanks to LeanData and Metro Audio Visual for having us out!
