Pici all’Aglione (Pasta with Garlic Sauce) From Tuscany, Italian
Ingredients:
- 400g zero zero flour
- Semolina flour
- 1 egg
- Water
- 1 garlic
- Olive oil
- Peperoncino(hot chilli peppers)
- Tomato concentrate
- 1 tin puree tomato
Dough:
Use 400g zero zero flour, add 1 egg & enough water and mix until smooth and silky
Slice the dough and cut each one into battens
Roll using straight fingers, in Tuscany pici can be thicker. Drop the pici into semolina flour to stop them from sticking
Cook the pici in boiling salted water for around 2 minutes
Sauce:
Fries several cloves of garlic with plenty of olive oil and cook until it can be crushed with a spoon. Add peperoncino to taste, follow by tomato concentrate, a tin puree tomato and a little of water
Stire the pici into garlicky tomato sauce
This is my fonts, sketches ideas, progression:
Buree chalk font: https://www.fontspace.com/buree-chalk-font-f51967
Chalkboard font: https://www.fontspace.com/chalk-board-font-f48095
This is my sketches ideas:
My first idea(left sketch) is there will be 2 parts which are
pasta dough recipe and another part is sauce recipe, both will mix
together to become a Pici all’Aglione. For the second idea(right
sketch) is there will be a blackboard behind it and a sketch with
chalk like a coffee shop chalkboard manu.
Sketches (Week 5, 5 Feb 2022)
For the first progression, I was having a problem drawing the
noodles(progression 1, right corner). Therefore, I found this
video as my reference. I create different sizes of ellipse shape
tools and combine them accordingly from large to small size to
make the pasta noodles.
Noodle reference video(Week 5, 5 Feb 2022)
Besides, I also found a splashing sauce image as a reference to
make like a sauce and noodle mixing together.
Progression 1 (Week 5, 5 Feb 2022)
Progression 2 (Week 5, 5 Feb 2022)
Week 6
Here's my final outcome of Peppa Granny's recipe Instructable Infographic Poster:
I decided to combine both ideas because I think the
second sketches infographic will be a bit messy and
confusing which will cause hard to read. Hence, I use
the first idea sequence and second idea chalkboard idea
to create the Instructable Poster final outcome.
Week 7
Illustrator drawing outline (Week 7, 16 Feb 2022)
Progress of creating animation frame in Illustrator (Week 7, 16 Feb 2022)
One of the problems I faced is the Illustrator outline has made a lot of line grouping when I move to After Effect. When I was thinking about redoing everything, I found this video to fix my problem. :)
Chalkboard Writing Effect Tutorial (Week 7, 17 Feb 2022)
This is a minute of recording my working process for fun, it took 2 days to complete the video. Even though it was tiring but it was quite fun at the same time, and I'm satisfied with the outcome!:D

REFLECTIONS
In these projects, I have experienced creating kinetic typography, instructable infographics posters and animation. It was quite challenging for the first time because it was quite rushed to complete everything including exercises in the short semester. But gratefully, I managed to complete everything on the time. During completing both project 1 and project 2, I found out I have improved a lot. I'm able to be more familiar with Illustrator, especially making animation in After Effect. Besides, I also found out that a lot of animations from Instagram and TikTok is made by After Effect which made me more interested in After Effect. In these projects, I believed that the effort and amount of time have shown great results. I believed it was worth it.
