Very impressive!! But serious question - the pancakes were amazing but why not just film that for real? Do you have more context for that one? It actually makes my teeth hurt!

Haha, fair question 😄 I mainly wanted to challenge myself with this kind of shot — soft body simulations, viscous liquids, food rendering, all that stuff.

And honestly, shooting something like this for real is not as simple as it looks. You need good lighting, cameras, lenses, a proper setup, food styling, etc. I don’t really have that kind of equipment, so doing it in CG was actually much more accessible for me.
