Summary of the video:
The video discusses deceptive food photography tricks used to make food appear more appealing than it is in reality. It covers various foods, such as ice cream, pancakes, beer, and more, showcasing how photographers use creative methods like shaving cream for foam, hydrogenated fat for ice cream, and cardboard for pancake stacks to achieve the desired look. The goal is to emphasize the difference between how food is presented in photos and its true appearance.
1. The photo suggests that ice cream is often enhanced with hydrogenated fat, corn syrup, and coloring.
2. Pancake photos are achieved with the help of cardboard and car engine oil for the dripping effect.
3. Beer commercials often use soap foam instead of real beer foam to create a more visually appealing image.
4. Whipped cream in photos is often not real whipped cream but shaving cream, maintaining its shape for a longer time.
5. Food photography often employs various tricks, such as using Photoshop, makeup, and resources, to enhance the appearance of dishes.
6. Photos of soda with overflowing bubbles are achieved with scenographic ice and antacid tablets, not the natural effervescence of the drink.
7. The reality of food, especially in photos, may differ significantly from what is presented, and various tricks are used to create appealing visuals.
