A resident of Honolulu, Hawaii, Jonathan “Jon” Vrban has a passion for cooking. Jonathan Vrban is currently writing a baking cookbook, and he aims to share his recipes online through cooking videos.
When crafting a home cooking video, a novice may find it challenging to create professional final products. One tip beginners are often not aware of is that audio may be more important than video to the quality of the final product. Food52’s professional videographer recommends investing in a directional microphone to achieve the best audio. Costing approximately $30, lavalier microphones pick up external sound clearly, which is valuable during editing. Instead of shooting multiple shots of a single action or portion of a recipe, a person can gather enough detail and video through a single take. This method ensures continuity when recording. Keep in mind that the videographer should move quickly between the cook and the actual process of handling food to obtain the greatest amount of usable content. Later, during the editing process, a person can use software to remove unnecessary scenes or transitions from a recording and recombine footage to create a fluid cooking video. The same applies to eliminating dead air and filler words in the audio.
