In the Fine Dining sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Speed Ramping delivers measurable results that transform how fine dining professionals communicate with their audience.
Fine dining video demands a cinematic approach that matches the restaurant's own attention to detail — every frame must feel as composed as every plate. Shooting requires close collaboration with the chef to capture plating at the precise moment of completion, before garnishes wilt or sauces set. Slow-motion pours, steam rising from consommés, and the choreography of a multi-course tasting menu create content that transcends food marketing and enters the territory of short film. Audio design is critical: the clink of crystal, the pop of a Champagne cork, the murmur of a well-dressed dining room. Distribution targets food critics, Michelin guide visibility, and high-net-worth diners who discover restaurants through luxury lifestyle publications and sommelier recommendations. Budgets range from 3,000 to 15,000 euros per production, reflecting the precision and access required to film in an environment where the average cover exceeds 150 euros.
Restaurants with video on Google My Business receive 35% more reservations. Food content is inherently visual, yet capturing dishes at their most appetizing requires specialized food styling, lighting, and timing — most dishes have a "beauty window" of just 5-10 minutes.
Modern diners check video reviews and social content before choosing where to eat. 87% of consumers say video influences their restaurant choice. The challenge is creating content that conveys taste, texture, and atmosphere through a screen.
A Michelin-starred restaurant produced a 6-episode chef's table series showing the preparation of signature dishes. The series generated 800K views, led to a 3-month waiting list, and earned press coverage in national food magazines.
Professional food video drives measurable business results: menu videos increase average ticket by 15-22%, chef portrait videos build trust and personal connection, and social media food content generates organic reach 3x higher than any other content type in hospitality.
1. Plate Preparation: Shot analysis, camera tracking, rotoscoping, and clean plate generation for smooth integration.
2. Asset Creation: 3D modeling, texturing, and lighting of CG elements to match the live-action plate perfectly.
3. Compositing: Multi-layer compositing in Nuke/After Effects with color matching, grain matching, lens distortion, and atmospheric effects.
4. QC & Delivery: Frame-by-frame quality control, final render at full resolution, and delivery with VFX breakdown documentation.
Speed ramping creates smooth acceleration and deceleration within a single shot — transitioning from real-time to slow motion and back with fluid, organic timing. We use optical flow interpolation (Twixtor or DaVinci Resolve's speed warp) to generate intermediate frames, avoiding the stutter that simple time-stretching produces. This technique is popular for sports highlights, product reveals, dance sequences, and cinematic transitions. Source footage shot at 60fps or higher gives the best results, but we can work with 24fps material for moderate slowdowns. Turnaround is 1-2 days per clip. We deliver with and without the ramp so you can compare.
You receive: final composited shots in ProRes 4444/EXR, VFX breakdown reel, individual element passes (beauty, diffuse, specular, alpha), and project files.
