    Spraying distilled water can let you get many different condensation patterns. Glycerin is great but what you get from the first spray stays there. The distilled water doesn't leave mineral deposits, dries and you can reapply. Food stylists I've worked with use the glycerin/water combo sometimes on vegetables and food too but most just use water. Just last week I was shooting a shot and the client wanted the vegetables and fruit to look like they had water droplets and the food stylist sprayed a mix of glycerin and water and I would have preferred water only but it was too late. With the glycerin / water mix you also need to be very careful if other items are nearby since it will sit on them. We created a mask of paper towels to keep the cheeses, in this case, free from spray.

    For the soup it seems you could just add another can of soup except without the liquid, so there would be more ingredients to fill up the bowl.

      It's just easier (and far less waste) to use inert materials to make up the extra volume. I shot a bowl of Bagna Cauda yesterday (with a 1-hour deadline) and there was no way I was whipping up a real batch. Let's just say, the bulk of that ramekin was a rock I had in the yard. The total amount of volume of wasted food was minimal.

    Many of these tricks are going to be illegal in some contexts, FYI. Campbells got into trouble specifically for the marbles-in-the-soup trick. Beware of false advertising, and attend to your legal counsel's advice.

    • @TheSlantedLens
      @TheSlantedLens  5 лет назад +2

      You are right in some contexts. If you are shooting for Campbells you have a problem. If you are shooting for your portfolio there are no truth in advertising issues. If you are shooting for a food blog and show a receipt there is no problem. Its a receipt not a direct representation of what is in a product can. If you are shooting for Coke you can't dilute the Coke but if you are shooting a hamburger for a restaurant then its fine to dilute the Coke. It's not an ad for Coke. Its not as big a deal as it may seem.

    I don't agree with a lot of these techniques as being best practices or even a good way of getting it done. Water and kero for condensation? Runs weird and doesn't look great. Plus it's sticky. Water and glycerine is a much better mix. Cutting out a white card the shape of a glass to add reflection? Come on, it's 2020. Composite the white card reflection! Take a baseline photo of the beverage, put a white (or gold for caramel colored drinks) card behind the glass, take the photo. Doesn't matter if it's a 6' reflector; you're compositing. Then in post, mask in the gold reflection in the non-respective side of the drink. Next, for butter, cut it with a cheese knife, and then use a heat gun. 750 degrees or in that range will melt the outside fast enough not to compromise the structure of the butter. For coffee, use a crema roast cappuccino and stand it in for regular coffee. Keeps that oil cap much better. For soup, create an actual platform for the noodles. Prep ahead of time, don't sink marbles like an amateur. I get this is an intro to food photography video, but this doesn't pass the "best in x location" sniff test for me. Best of luck all!
