Culinary Producer

 

They are your go-to food expert on-set, the department head that leads the culinary team, and are a great addition to your production team for video projects & talent-hosted content.

  • Script writing (provide talking points for the host, key tips for prep, historical or fun facts about the dish)

  • Annotate recipes to indicate when cooking swaps will occur, culinary notes, etc.

  • Cross test the recipes to ensure the feasibility of dishes for on-camera preparation and make any adjustments as needed

  • Manage all culinary staff

Food Stylist

 

A key member of the culinary team, but in smaller shoots, they may work alone with direction coming from the overall producer. They are the off-screen hands in the preparation of food, or can also be the on-screen hands for cooking shots or product handling.

 

  • Culinary hand model 

  • Off-camera food preparer 

  • If you're shooting a hands-only video and need a hand model that knows how to naturally prepare food, a food stylist is your go-to 

  • Sourcing of all ingredients and necessary cookware

  • Prepare/pre-measure ingredients and swap-outs to ensure your shoot moves at a quick-upbeat pace

  • Style 'hero’ and talent cooked dishes for food beauty shots

 

Please note: Ingredients, props & manicure expenses are not included

Producer Refinery29

"When working with a culinary producer, it’s always a goal to create food that tastes good, but Kiano did so much more. She brought thoughtfulness about the people who’d be making her dishes, a compassion for the cultures she drew from, and a determination to break through the quirky obstacles that pop up with new foods — plus, the food was super delicious."

"Working with Jikoni Studios elevated the quality of our work exponentially. There is truly no better food content studio in Los Angeles, Kiano makes shooting a snap!"
