Food Documentary Critique

Objective

This assignment encourages you to bring what we’ve learned in class in critiquing and analyzing a food documentary of your choice. There are roughly a zillion; it’s easy to find plenty via standard streaming outlets like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, PBS, etc. It can be more focused on diet, food production, food history, food industry, or whatever, but FOOD must be the main concern of the documentary.

Basics

Use the course!

You have to show that you’re using course material to analyze your documentary. If you just ask an AI tool to do this for you, it will be way too vague and you won’t really get any extra credit. You CAN use AI to help you, but YOU need to make sure it’s showing you can use the course to analyze the documentary.

Questions to address

Analyze! Don’t summarize
