Food Videos Camera Tricks (VIDEO)

Over the past 5 years, we have created hundreds of food videos with plenty of time to practice our camera tricks. My husband does an awesome job of video editing, making food, objects and even people appear, disappear and transform.

We always try to make you do the double take and sometimes our tricks cause considerable (and unintended) discomfort, like the controversial chicken video. Ha! Enjoy this video which has all of our favorite camera trick moments so far.

Watch our Food Video Camera Tricks:

We film only our very best recipes but we think they should be delicious AND entertaining so we have fun with our video edits.

Zach King has been a major inspiration for us in video tricks and illusion videos. It’s easy to get stuck on his Youtube page for awhile!

Let me know which  of our food videos or camera tricks was your favorite? Also, if you have a (reasonable) suggestion for a camera trick, let me know in a comment below!

    Hey Natasha! I just watched the video showing all the tricks that you use in your cooking videos. I gotta tell you: they are great. Huge compliments to both you and your husband. They‘re so entertaining they almost make you forget that you originally „only“ wanted a recipe! By the way, my favorite recipe is your cinnamon bun recipe which I‘ve made so often. I live here in Germany and all my friends beg me to make them when Fall rolls around. So thank you! (To both of you) You always make me smile 🙂

    I really do love the camera tricks. My favorite is the one with the peppers coming out of the iPad… but the ones with two of you are pretty awesome too.

    Oh my I love these. I just really wish I had those tricks in real life 😅😅 but I love the chicken. Especially bc of the fact we always ate mamas chickens but I know how weird people are about eating chickens they have seen alive before 😂

    i love it, especially the ipad to bowl peppers. I enjoy cooking and Ihave a video background. Do you shoot in a studio on green screen or manage to turn your kitchen into a virtual set? Love it all!

    I like the one with the ipad and bell peppers flying out of it. I have never seen it before. The snapping with fingers is the most common one but the ipad one is pretty cool. Keep up the good work.

    lol, I am not an old school, but when it comes to the cooking, I prefer videos without any tricks when cutting / chopping veggies or removing food from dishes. I like more standard way 🙂 But it is me. A good trick with chicken, but I know it doesn’t come out that magically from alive chicken to the chicken that you can buy in the store. 🙂
