So what better way to get students to produce a good cooking video in Spanish than to have one you created yourself! I enlisted my daughter to help with the tasting and tech support just in case anything went wrong with the ingredients. On a more serious note, the fundamentals of video creation and organization are emphasized in the video with titles throughout and the instructions (in Spanish) are voiced over, with the whole package created within iMovie on the Mac. My students are going through my lessons on pre-production, recording, and editing of the video in class, and since this is my 5th year doing this, I can say that these steps really do help students to better organize and execute their videos. Best of luck to all of you doing similar projects in whatever subject you happen to be teaching or supporting!
