"Carnival Eats" Season 4 Shoot at The Delaware State Fair!

 
     On Wednesday, July 27, 2016, J.Pac Productions owner, Joe Paciotti, made his way out to the Delaware State Fair in Harrington, DE to assist production on Season 4 (EP's 4, 11, & 21) of "Carnival Eats" a US & Canadian television series about various eating establishments at carnivals in the United States & Canada. The series features host Noah Cappe as he travels to the many carnivals, state fairs and festivals to sample a variety of unique culinary creations available only at these aptly named "gastronomic freak shows". There's lots to do at a carnival: playing the games, riding the rides, delighting in the noise and the neon. But for some, the best part of a carnival is the food, some of it unique to that milieu. "Carnival Eats" targets the culinary creations linked to American fairgrounds. Calorie-loaded offerings include rattlesnake, frog legs, or okra -- all deep-fried -- and a decadent sundae of eight doughnuts topped with whipped cream, chocolate or caramel, and don't forget the cherry! Host Noah Cappe, a novice cook, tries his hand at making some of the items.

   The on location production crew consisted of Host Noah Cappe, Director Spencer Ramsay, Field Producer Arthur Lee, DP Matt Braun, 2nd Camera Justin Williams, Camera Asst./DIT Brendan Moffit, Sound Scott Tremblay, Set PA's Joe Paciotti & Brian Bentz!

 Look out for Season 4 of "Carnival Eats" airing on the Cooking Channel & Food Network Spring 2017!

Movie Summery: 

   In their early 20's and at the crossroads of their lives, Danny and Mikey, two musicians from The Bronx New York City (Circa 1986) decide their future on a Saturday Night in The Bronx Park they grew up in. 

About ‘Saturday in the Park’    
   Larry Romano has been thinking about bringing Saturday in the Park from stage to screen for over 15 years. It has been silently nagging at him in the back of his mind, like something he forgot to do, but instead of a chore, it was a pursuit to bring Saturday in the Park alive once more. Like a doting father, he wanted to bring his baby up as best he could, then set it free to go where it may. He adapted the original three man play to screenplay including several new characters and added plot.

   The concept is the same however: do you grow up and take responsibility as the world changes around you or do you just let it ride and go along to get along?
The first “character” you will meet in Saturday In The Park is the Bronx. The toughest of New York’s five boroughs. The crime ridden streets of the Bronx circa 1986 is perhaps more of an antagonist than protagonist in this story, however, it is the catalyst for many of the characters personalities, thoughts, morals and actions.
The principal characters are Mikey and Danny, lifelong friends who have grown up in the hard streets in a neighborhood just outside of Yankee Stadium. Danny is a drummer and is planning a trip to California. Danny has even sold his drums to raise money for the trip. Mikey, who plays guitar and is fronting a new band wants his lifelong friend to stay in the Bronx so that he might join the band.
In their interaction you can see the mean streets ebb and flow. They often discuss their bedroom triumphs and even “finesse” a friend out of his money and his watch. But the core of the conversation is about the future. Danny ponders if he can ever “make it” in New York City, and that is why he wants to try California. Mikey is staying, he is a “New York Guy.” We learn how close these two have become and how difficult the decisions they are making are.

    Some notable cast members include, Victor Williams (From "King of Queens") who plays Henry in the film, along with Aaron Sauter as Mikey, and Illya Konstantin as Danny. The film is set to hit theaters September 2016.
