Set construction and special props for five experimental builds.
Client: BlazHoffski
Work by Daniel Dekker.
A different machine for each episode
For De Proefkeuken we built a machine or experimental setup for each episode. Season 10 involved five builds: an absorption refrigerator, an aeroplane, a stamppot machine, a burger machine and a poo machine. The technology must work and be understandable and entertaining to watch. The main photograph shows the presenters filming in the small workshop.
From idea to visible operation
For the Poep episode, Daniel designed and built a setup with a wooden rotating mechanism, transparent hoses and moving model hands. Construction photographs show how these parts come together; the broadcast episode shows the machine in use. The stamppot machine combined several movements for mashing, gravy and sausage, requiring a different technical solution.
