We were hired by Tokyo based food tech venture company Next Meats to shoot a cooking video of their plant-based meat product.

They needed a cooking demonstration video for an upcoming event, and wanted to capture a Chef from 3 different camera angles preparing their Ginger Sauté Yakiniku dish.

The client found a great loft location with a beautiful kitchen in Oakland, CA. I would highly recommend it for any photo or video shoots: https://www.peerspace.com/pages/listings/5a4ed44432ee301b0053424d?sort_order=1

All cameras were hooked up to an external monitor for clients to view the action. A soft natural light atmosphere was created by combining HMI lights with the loft windows. Cooking sounds were captured with lavalier and shotgun mics.

Here are some behind-the-scene images:
