Post Day 8 Assignment Here

[Brendan Williams]

Brendan Willliams’s Talent

In this assignment, I learned to figure out what makes a good character for people to tune into. Also, started looking into who I would want to host or be a panel judge on the show. I like the idea of a comedian hosting the show and moving things along with humor and then popular cooks from youtube being the judges. That would appeal to a younger fan base.
