In the midst of Epic B-Roll and Stop-Motion culture, I wanted to share some principles and/or tips that can help make your food videos more engaging without having to rely on specific camera movements. In fact, the principles/tips that I share have almost nothing to do with any specific filmmaking technique.

Hope it helps!
