Our Work
Throughout Fall 2024, the five of us have dedicated time to crafting a five-part multimedia project that focuses on uplifting local food businesses in Miami. From a podcast series, to a photo gallery, to a website, to a text piece, and ultimately a 10-minute documentary, we have surveyed the local food business scene in Miami, sharing the stories of business owners, content creators,
and local business supporters as we explore the "magic" behind the Magic City.
