If you want to see a more behind the scenes look at my work head over to my Instagram instagram.com/scottchoucino/

I use the paper sheets a lot! Easy to store and to transport. I use an art case to protect and transport them around. Very nice when you're starting out and need something easy to bring on location. I have a small clamp, magic arm and a stand that's used primarily to prop those sheets up😂

That was really helpful! Especially the table corner thing, thank you!

I'm in love with your photos. I've just shot my first food commercial and I found a huge love for food video. Thanks for explaining different backgrounds.

love love love the studio techniques. test shooting is so important, keep it up. well done mate.

This was so well done. I really want another video like this that goes into a lot more props and little things you use for food/products

Simple procedures for professional results. No a lot of expense involved. Much appreciated.

Many thanks. Yes, would like an advanced propping vid in due course. All the Best

Smart and straightforward! Like It!

Awesome! I’m going shopping today!

Ooooo the paper hanging and then the corner piece of paper ! Genius! I do like the idea of that and the final look is really nice too. Ha ha I went to Rymans and bought all the A1 card colours the have !

Appreciate you sharing these things with us and taking the time to spark creativity.

All your tips are most welcome. Thanks for all your videos. Lots of good bits of info to absorb.

You have to know, your content is one of the reasons keep me loving food and products photography.. Many thanks champ

Very cool video. I love how simple the card is and in return how good it looks!!!

Thanks for your great content. Love it!

Hi Scott. Love your videos, and your workshops have helped me massively! How do you remove the texture from the paper/card backdrops in post?

best food/product photography channel on KZfaq cheers for all the info mate

Great input, great work! 👌🏻

This is great! Can you do a video on editing and smoothing the seamless backdrop paper? I've seen it done with portrait photography and I would imagine the process is the same, but think it would be helpful to see nonetheless.

I literally have been in craft stores all week trying to make this work trying to avoid buying $50 vinyl backdrops. This is Divine Timing God is good, thank you so much great video!!!

Thank you Sir for this bit of information and knowledge. Also would be helpful for a more depth regarding this backgrounds . Thanks

I use the colored paper (called “railroad board” here in the US) for onsite food photography. I buy the multi-colored pack and a pack of white. When they get dirty, I just throw them away and get a fresh one. The pack is now (inflation) $38 US for pack of 25 (sized 55.88 CM by 71.22 CM - 22” x 28” US)

Great tutorial!

You just made me want to be a commercial food photographer, i want to try it myself and push my way to the best version of me

Thanks for the information bro!

excellent video thanks!

Great video, very useful tips, thanks! 😁

Prop and set design would be awesome to learn!

Cool, i'm waiting for next video about set design and more 👍

Love your video mate, real raw info as it should be. Probably my number one creator at the minute Do you make the square boxes for props or just buy them and repaint for each use?

Funny! I literally just spayed some backgrounds for the shoot that I mentioned on Patreon!! I used an HVLP gun to spray them, but basically the same idea. I was really impressed with the quality of the finish, compared to using a roller or spray can.

thanks this help alot !

Awesome! Nextup, how to hold things in the air? Products, food, tubes etc :)! All those techniques are no where to be fund but im sure youve mastered them!

Bravo!!!!!

Hi Really enjoy your studio set up videos. What do you use to stand your ice cream cone please.

Maybe a series on still life backgrounds, bases, styling, etc. That's still life as in the Old Masters, not product photography style.

The corner technique at 5:15 was worth the price of admission.

I'd love to see a video on how you achieve your sharp shadow edges Scott. I've been trying to replicate that sunny day look here but my shadows suck. Have tried bare bulb, Spill Kill, with skrim, without skrim, close light source, far light source but still all my shadows have soft edges. I'm currently chewing through Karl Taylors paid courses but I can't find the answer there either.

It's been a year since you said you will do another video on set building... Would love to see it... Hope you make one soon!

Hi What do you do make sure that the 'blueness' or "yellowness" of the foreground still remains. Flash tends to wash the boards out.

is there a link for the coloured paper/sheets of the same size? could not find anywhere

I know that the wooden prop blocks are pretty expensive so, if you're on a budget, have you used the foam prop blocks and if so, how would you rate them?

"a good pegging" firmly locked into my vocabulary.

Yeah you shoulda did that advance set design 1st, this was a cool vid especially when you talked about corner piece, but I would have preferred to see some more details with setups.

Where do you get the boxes?

nice

what's your camera setting?

More vedios like this

Thanks for this kind of footage, I feel like your apprentice day one

"give it a good pegging" ALL THE BRITS: AYYYYYYYY!!!

Title typo?

Somewhere out there is an American screaming at his/her phone..... "Don't put your finger on that trigger!" @2:39
