Thing that i have learnt

During this project I have learnt alot in designing especially using photoshop . Which my goals was to improve on this area.

1. Designing using Photoshop how to design vector logo and posters.
2. Engage visual by creating movies
3. I also improved on my php by creating a facebook landing page

Video

The video i made is based on the steps to wash your hands. It plays after every 10 minutes in the kitchen to reminds the cooks to wash their hands. To start with it gives a trick that once you help fight nasty bacteria by washing your hands you win an iPad 2.

What leads to food contemination

Workers can contaminate food by: working while they are sick; touching pimples or sores; touching their hair; not wearing a band-aid and single-use gloves

over sores and wounds; and not washing their hands properly before, during, and after handling

food.

Here are some images

There are do's and don'ts in the kitchen.-

How to store food properly in the freezer and fridge

Handling Food Safely

Raw meat, poultry and fish should be kept away from other foods so they don't contaminate them.

(This is why many fridges have a meat compartment in the bottom of the fridge ; Also always wash your hands before and after handling food, whether cooking or putting it away.

The freezer should be below 18 degree and the fish below 2.

Hardrock Cafe Kitchen

After visiting the kitchen at Hardrock cafe in Copenhagen, I had a great talk with Debra the kitchen manager.

I got some answers to my kitchen, the kitchen has 22 cooks and they work in different shifts.

The kitchen is divided into two section one where the food is been prepared and the other is the cooking area.

The staff has a different rest room from the customer.

The cooks are required to wash their hands before and after handling the food, after touching raw meat and eggs as well.

CHOPPING BOARDS

Story behind the campaign

Everybody dreams of having an iPad, so i decided to make a campaign with an idea of wining an iPad.

I have two participant the teddy and duck , they are to wash their hands by finding dettol non-touch wash system, but swarms of bacteria block their way. To help them escape from this nasty bacteria you have join them and fight the bacteriaand win iPad 2.

Today we had the midway meeting and showcase, I got some ideas after talking with the teachers on how I can make my video..

Ideas

Since not many remembers to wash their hands am thinking on how I can promote hand washing towards the cooks. Making a video showing steps to wash the hands wold be great.. But well I have to get my movie maker ready..

The other idea was to make a website but this dint fit since not many would have time to visit a website to look for hand washing. Am left with an idea of making a campaign on face book page.

visiting the kitchen

Today I visited one of the kitchen in Copenhagen Astor Restaurant. I talked with the manager and he was very positive and inspired by the project we are doing. He allowed me to crush in the kitchen and talk with the cooks and i was inspired by the clean environment they have.

Well they gave me answers on my question i had for them. The problem they have is that most of them tend to forget washing their hands of which is a vital problem. They gave some reasons that they forgot or they are busy. I asked them what they can do to remember to wash their hands and one of the employee said they can have a screen in the rest room and also in their canteen. Which was super great idea since that what i have in mind, making a video....

Message: "CLEAN YOUR HANDS. SAVE A LIFE"

Target group: "COOKS IN A RESTAURANT"

The Problem

The task is to convey the message of better hygiene,. to get people to remember to wash their hands and not use same cutting board for both vegetables and meat.

As it is people who are conscious about the hygiene rules is the problem in the task of providing it in a better way to get people to wash their hands with a good message , and to remember the good work procedures must be in kitchen, so hygiene comes first.

The main rules of kitchen hygiene

For the employees they should know that hygiene in the kitchen is understandably very important. Without excellent kitchen hygiene, disease and food contamination can spread quickly and to devastating effect.

Here are the main rules of kitchen hygiene:

• Clean all the kitchen surface with disinfectant soap before preparing any food
• Wash hands thoroughly before starting any food preparation
• Use separate cutting board for raw meat and vegetables
• Always wash the hands immediately after handling raw meat

It crucial that anyone who enters the kitchen is aware of the rules and this is not only for the cooks but also waiters and waitress at the restaurant. A clean kitchen can be a very safe kitchen and this is what any customer would expect when they visit a restaurant for a meal.

planning research

What is Kitchen Hygiene about?

In order to get the answer to this I have found a restaurant with a small kitchen where i will carry my research about the hygiene in the kitchen.

I have prepared some question which will ask the employees during my research and hopefully to get answers.

Question for field research

1. When is one required to wash their hands before they get to the kitchen?

2. Why is washing hands for food handlers so important?

3. What kind of food are considered ready-to-eat and may not be touched with bare hands?

4. How can you prepare the serve ready-to-eat food while avoiding contact with bare hands?

5. Why is personal hygiene essential in the kitchen?
