FINAL- Food Truck Life




Food Trucks in Provo have sprouted like crazy the passed year. There are about 40 food trucks in Provo. There are many different food truck roundups during the week. Most people know where the trucks are serving food by following their Instagrams. It is pretty tricky to get a food truck started. The truck itself is expensive and then you have to get certain things built in the truck to make the food and to pass the inspection with the city. You also have to get a lot of permits. There are really classy food trucks these days!
          

  The Mouse Trap truck serves gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. They are DELICIOUS. They also have dessert sandwiches like bananas and chocolate which is called #BFF. Some of the savory sandwiches have names like The Nicholas Cage. These are the owners that started the truck, Dan and Skylar


 The Grill Sergeant was in the Army and started this food truck with his wife and two daughters. He said "Making a burger is like making art." He is very dedicated to this truck and really good at it. His burgers and fries are delish.

This truck doesn't have a name but he sells the typical street tacos. He runs the food truck with his family of 5. He always wears this cute hat. 

Charlie Boy's sells pulled pork sandwiches and other pork recipes. This little pig that he is leaning on is his smoker. He runs this truck with his granddaughter whom he loves so much. Charlie is a really jolly, cute old man. 
This truck is called Pound It Kebabs and they sell yummy authentic kebabs. The owner is going to BYU and is from France. Him and his wife started it up and now his sister works in the truck. His wife is pregnant and he is busy with school so they are selling the truck in a couple months. 

                                   
The Corndog Commander is my favorite truck. One, because of the huge corndog on the top of the truck and two, because they dip their dogs in a corn bread batter and they are SO GOOD. The two men that started it are brothers and way funny.



                                                   
Pico Norte sells street tacos and they are yummier than a typical street taco. They get there meats and spices from Monterrey, Mexico. A couple of young guys started the food truck and they got inspired by the food in Mexico where they went on their mission.

Assignment #2




 























This assignment has taught me that when you are shooting all dark objects that your shutter speed has to be longer to bring more light to the dark objects. If light wasn't brought in by the slower shutter speed, it would be a black image. The white on white image was extremely bright with slow shutter speed. Light reflects off the white color so much more than the dark. With the dark and the white objects being in the same light and the same exact place, the shutter speed still needed to be adjusted so you can get the proper exposure and show the value and texture of the objects.
