Interesting facts

Jordon Saffron: Taste This! is a 2009 American mockumentary directed by Sergio Myers, creator of MTV's Sorority Life. Rather than being a scripted film, all the scenes were improvised using a story concept created by Myers. The film stars Steve Schirripa, Rachel Hunter, and Sergio Myers in a story about an egotistical chef who had made it big in Hollywood, only to lose his restaurant, his restaurant partner, his girlfriend, and his ability to taste.

Background

The film was shot over a period of seven days, and made using a concept director Myers refers to as "Free Flow Filmmaking", with which a filmmaker would "write with the camera", allowing them freedom in not being tied to a specific script or location and in being able to shoot economically. For actress Rachel Hunter, Myers gave story line, background, and motivation. Through improvisation, all of her scenes were done in one take.
