They serve as a visual guide to creating scrumptious dishes that every foodie would want to try at home. Take Buzzfeed&#8217;s Tasty, which originated the&nbsp;mobile-first, bird\u2019s-eye view food videos. And it instantly turned into an internet sensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the right gear and the proper techniques, you can also create your own viral-ready food videos. But unlike <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/6-tricks-to-bring-your-food-photography-to-the-next-level\">food photography<\/a> (which you might be more familiar with), food videos require a different approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Makes Food Videos Different from Food Photos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we delve into the <i><\/i>of creating an awesome recipe video, you\u2019ll need to know what makes food videography different from its static counterpart.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-59173 size-full\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_654263527.jpg\" alt=\"blogger takes a photo of strawberries on a breakfast table\" class=\"wp-image-59173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_654263527.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_654263527-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption>Image via Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Movement\/Action<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Picture steam rising from a dish or bubbles boiling in a pot of soup. These actions make videos different, and you can use them to tell a compelling story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether time is sped up to show the finished product or slowed down to emphasize preparation, time plays an integral part in the cooking process. Likewise, real-time food preparation methods can be interesting to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cooking sounds, like sizzling steak, chopping vegetables, or even voice-overs, can make or break your story. Sometimes, even background sounds can paint a broader picture than the visuals \u2014 think kitchen timers going off and whistling teapots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating Recipe Videos<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-image-59174 size-full\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_704294305.jpg\" alt=\"two photographers taking photos of breakfast items\" class=\"wp-image-59174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_704294305.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_704294305-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption>Image via Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Follow a Doable Recipe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the goal of your video is to entice viewers to click through to your site after watching your video on Facebook or Instagram, you\u2019ll need a short yet catchy video. So err on the simpler side of the culinary spectrum and follow an easy-to-cook recipe for better engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take Advantage of Natural Light<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of shining your subject directly with a spotlight and casting darker, film-noir shadows, use natural lighting for your food clip. Your goal is to make your food and ingredients visible without looking shadowed or washed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shoot in Different Angles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s already too common among food videographers to take close-up shots. Liven things up and experiment with different shot sizes and angles (or with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/8-essential-tips-for-food-photography-props-and-lighting\">props and lighting<\/a>). This way, you\u2019ll have more shots to choose from when editing to make your video look more exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Colors to Create a Mood<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Distinct color palettes leave a strong impression \u2014 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/how-to-use-complementary-colors-in-photography\/\">complementary colors<\/a> are key. So arrange your ingredients in a way that creates contrast or makes them complement one another. Paying attention to color can also set the mood and help viewers interpret tastes and smells better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Film in a Clean Workspace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An uncluttered area will complement the visual appeal of your video. Enhance the instructional value for your video by filming in a clean space with minimal distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Must-have Camera Gear for Impressive Food Videos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Start impressing viewers with a well-shot food video using the right camera equipment.
