The presentation featured a review of the training course of digitalization of ritual recipes. Each one of the modules were presented well with a focus on the potential benefits from the knowledge for all students – current and future ones. It was pointed out that the skills and procedures of the EuRiCa training course can be used as a basis for different types of digitalization in other spheres of life and are currently used by other types of craftsman.
The presentation of Mr. Zhelev continued with the templates which are used for the digitalization, as well as the ways to do it. The templates demonstrated how easy can be for all people with different level of digital skills to start their own digitalization process, just by following the given steps.
After that, according to the agenda, the event continued with Mr. Simeon Kanev, who presented a special Guide for Social media publishing, developed by RHM-Burgas, which gives highlights on how to properly use different digital channels like Facebook, YouTube and Instagram for the purposes of digitalizing ritual and traditional cuisine. The Guide is a natural continuation of the creation of digital content, which shows how to disseminate it to the public in a way that will help the creators to reach a wide audience.
The audience was familiarized with the digitalized recipes by students of the training course – people from Bulgaria, Latvia, Italy and Portugal. Ms. Radovesta Stewart presented different recipes from various authors, which demonstrated how the templates can be used both by people with basic digital knowledge and equipment and by professionals with high-level skills in video creation and editing, in order to create digital content from a recipe. All videos were shown from the EuRiCa YouTube channel.
