'How to Make a Rustic Photo Backdrop for Dark Food Photography'

14:14 Aug 29 0 0

'Stop paying hundreds of dollars (and hundreds of hours) hunting down rustic barn doors for your food photography backdrops. With a $16 sheet of galvanized steel (purchased from your local hardware store) and a handful of easy-to-find tools and paints, you can create stunning, perfect-sized sheets for your shots.   When trying this at home, I recommend working in the sun on a warm day. Your paint will dry so much faster. And, as mentioned in the video: this is an art, not a science. Use these basic techniques and start playing. You really can\'t mess these backdrops up.  Wondering about the bleach spray? I spray a light bleach-water rinse between layers to create a variety of textures on my backdrops. Water  or water+salt solutions work, as well. No matter what you use, always work outside, in a well ventilated area. And don\'t forget the mask and plastic gloves. (I didn\'t wear gloves and had stained hands for weeks. Damn! There were no syrup-pouring shots for days!)  Subscribe below! So many more tutorials and photo hacks on the way. You don\'t want to miss any of this fabulous ish!
