Imagine waking up every day, following your passion, and fulfilling your dreams. This should be the only process to live our life but by the time we get trapped. Society makes us feel that despite really living the life we have to pretend that we are alive.

Jayson Taglieri’ “ Bake It Till You Make It” is a story about Dayna Altman, the founder of “Bake It Till You Make It”. The beautiful story talks about Dayna’s life’s struggle and how she bounced back.

Synopsis:  Dayna Altman comes from the very small town of Masschusset. Being from a small town it was quite tough for her to follow her dream due to lack of resources.

I think my story begins where most people do -  As the story starts to revolve Dayna starts to unfold the struggles with a bright smile. Dayna is someone who has a sparkling persona, and with her charm, she can win the world.

In the interaction scene with her parents, her Father shared how she was in her childhood days, and how she used to be very close to her teachers. Her interpersonal skill is something that makes her unique. Her sister shared how they used to be curious about the dance functions, and how Dayna used to be creative about her ideas.

I am homesick for a place that doesn’t exist – Dayna had everything, loving parents and a caring sister, but there was always a void that haunted her, that made her believe that she needed a place where her soul was not just living but alive also. Sometimes we have everything but our mind makes us believe that we don’t deserve anything good, our souls get caged by our own minds, and that place is worse than a a prison. Dayna elaborated on this feeling wonderfully. and this scene where most of us can feel connected.

That was my reality – Society always puts pressure on us to look in a certain way, and the definition of being beautiful creates a lot of anxiety in our minds.  Dayna was also a part of this so-called beauty standardization, however, she completely focused on her academics to cope with this harsh reality of life. Doing many things singing dancing performing acting nothing makes her feel alive.

Growing up with several anxieties, Dayna also found out that she had an eating disorder, but she never acknowledged it as something very important. Going to college for the first time she got to know so many things about her mental health issues.

The Beayoutiful Project – As getting know more about her mental health issues and OCD condition Dayna tried to get out of it, and there she got people who can help her. Meanwhile, she had started “the Beayoutiful Project” where she and her sister started to sell beauty products.

The words that leave your lips cut deeper than you imagine – as the depression and the eating disorder start to develop, Dayna took help for the betterment. She visited help centers and a therapist, and like most people, she also thought just showing up and sharing her problem could help her reduce mental issues, and that degraded her issues even more.

Coping mechanism – as she was going through all of she got to know about her biggest aspiration cooking, Dayna always knew she had the entrepreneurship skill, and she made it possible by choosing cooking. Her “Bake It Till You Make It” is not just a cooking platform, but a platform where people can get over their anxieties and depression.

Analysis: “Bake It Till You Make It” is a wonderful portrayal of where failure insecurities relationships and ways of becoming successful beautifully talked about. How beautifully Dayna shows success and failure are just aspects of life, the moment you accept your insecurities you just win the fight.

Strong impressive Dialogues - I must say that Dayna’s recitation skill is one of the best parts of this movie. The moment the audience starts to watch the movie they will be completely lost in the flow of her words. The deep-rooted dialogues will gonna left a strong impression on people’s minds.

The subject - The subject of the movie is itself a very serious topic. As of now most of us going through some mental issues, Jayson’s “Bake It Till You Make It” is like a movie that people can easily reassemble. No mellow drama, no hyper-abusive dialogues, yet so connecting and refreshing. The movie does not only talk about the problems, it discusses the solution, the reality, and the process.

Soothing Cinematography – the proper mix-up where Dayna is talking about her present and the visuals of her childhood, is something soothing to watch. The color gradation plays a strong role here. It creates a mollifying ambiance. Before every transition, a written scene appears, that helps the audience to discover the very next moment. The cinematography uplifted the standard of  “Bake It Till You Make It”.
