Seriously? You are grown-up adults and you don't know how to make pancakes? How pathetic. I am not even going to watch the rest of the video.

[Plexiate]

I'm following the video and all of these have tasted horrible so far. Horrible life hacks.

I've been producing commercials for many years and this was fun to watch. When shooting beer, they actually use flat beer, we have buckets and buckets set out for 24 hours before the shoot. You only want to see the head on the hero end shot. :) When doing coffee, you also want to hit it with a little steam and here is a fun fact, when shooting melted cheese, they use small paint brushes to swipe over the cheese with listerine to make it glisten.

There are motor oils of different viscosity. Try one way more thicker.

I’ve worked in food advertising for a few years now, and you guys nailed it. The number one thing is not just making it look good, but making it look good for 2-4 hours without using too much of the product.

Imagine accidentally leaving the “commercial pancakes” out in a photo studio without labeling & some hungry person was mad hungry 🥞 💀

Apparently, like the salt method, adding a small mentos mint to a bottle of coke can help add a tiny bit of fizz. Maybe you should try that too. :-)

"I'm not a scientist" *proceeds to conduct several experiments with control groups* you're a scientist in your own right

Freaking brilliant idea mate. I remember back when I was first learning about production being blown away by all the hacks that get used to make food look appetizing. A+++ effort for actually making it academic vs just running commentary over it.

I have heard about dyed mashed potatoes being used in ice cream shoots. Please try that!

[FellaFilms]

Man these are definitely good to know! For part two, you should the one with corn syrup and food coloring to make ice cream that doesn't melt

[KelliMarissa]

When I used to do beer photography I would do the salt trick and it worked like a charm (also, for some reason stirring with a wooden stirrer causes bubbles too!) but when I was on set with an actual professional food photographer, he had some sort of air pump for carbonating the beer.

Just found your channel and I’m glad I did! This was awesome. As someone who shoots for a local coffee shop, the dish soap hack is good to know! 👌🏻

[Sum_Guy]

I like that you had to explain how you pour in your cereal normally because if you didn't clarify, people would think you're a serial killer

[braaap]

When your working at a restaurant and someone you hate comes in and orders pancakes ...

Motor Oil it is 😏

[Roro_]

bro, when he said "taking pictures of soup", I thought he was just going to take pictures of the cans LOL

[EsraelNate]

yeah make a part 2, love these type of shows

Wait up, hold on. You can’t call Aunt Jemina “maple syrup.” That crap is straight up processed high fructose corn syrup. You have to use real Maple syrup next time.

"So you heard it here first, folks, Aunt Jemima is probably... better than motor oil for pancakes- aTLeAST this motor oil-"
