It's Actually Not That Complicated; Tuesday, Second Period [12/06].
"One of the key components of a classic Nancy Meyers film, besides women with agency who are real people," Rosa gave a nod of acknowledgement to the students for their discussion last week, which was actually a significant expression of being impressed by their answers, so good job there, kids, "is the set design, especially interior designs, and especially the kitchens. A Nancy Meyers kitchen is iconic, and will often be a reflection of the protagonists and their personalities, as well as being absolutely fabulous. All my kitchens have been inspired by Nancy Meyers kitchens."
And considering how often she had to move apartments when coworkers or family members found out where she lived before moving to this island, that was a lot of kitchens!
"And today," Rosa informed them, "you're going to design your own. I have a lot of magazines here for you to flip through and find pictures or whatever, or you can use the Internet, but your goal is to put together a kitchen worthy of a Nancy Meyers protagonist. Don't just put things together because you think they're cool, either. Everything should have purpose and be reflective of the protagonist of your own proposal for a Nancy Meyers-esque movie, which is going to be your final for this class next week. Use this kitchen today as a jumping-off point for a movie proposal that you will give us next week. We've spent the whole class breaking down these movies; put them to use in making your own now.
"Today, though, we focus on the kitchens, the heart of any Nancy Meyers film, so we'll take a few moment to break down the elements I expect to see in your kitchens, and then we'll get to work."
