Food and beverage video production in Colombia

A Bogotá-based mobile crew for brands, agencies and producers shooting food, drinks and coffee in Colombia. Cinema cameras, RAW/log capture, motion and stills from the same set.

food and beverage video production in Colombia

Sheligo handles food and beverage video production in Colombia for brands, agencies and production companies that need a local partner. We shoot dishes, drinks, coffee and packaged food for commercials, social cutdowns, menus and campaigns, and we can grab stills off the same plate.

We're a mobile crew based in Bogotá and we travel anywhere in Colombia: a restaurant kitchen, a bar, a coffee farm or the location on your board. You bring the brief and the brand guidelines. We bring the camera and lighting package, run the day and coordinate with the chef or the food stylist.

Need a camera operator with RAW delivery for a quick shoot, or a video podcast in Bogotá? We do that too.

FAQ

Food and beverage production FAQ

How much does food photography and video production cost in Colombia?

It depends on the number of setups and dishes or products, motion versus stills, the deliverables list, styling, location and travel, and usage. Send your board or shot list and we'll send back a written quote.

Do you provide a food stylist?

We don't keep a stylist on staff. For restaurant shoots the chef usually plates under our direction on set. For commercial work, a food stylist is hired for your project and quoted as a separate line.

What does a food stylist do on a shoot?

A food stylist preps and arranges food for the camera: building the plate, keeping it fresh and glossy, controlling steam, crumbs and drips, and swapping in fresh hero plates between takes.

Can you shoot beverage and cocktail content?

Yes: pours, ice, condensation, foam and splashes, with slow motion and macro. Tell us the product, glassware and the moments you need, and we'll plan the setups around them.

Can you travel to coffee farms and other cities in Colombia?

Yes. We're based in Bogotá and travel anywhere in Colombia. Travel, lodging and access are planned and quoted in pre-production.

Can our team follow the shoot remotely?

Yes. We agree on the review method in pre-production and share frames and selects during the day, so your team can sign off from wherever it is.

What should we send before the shoot?

Your board or references, shot list, deliverable specs, brand guidelines and product samples or the dish list. The clearer the brief, the tighter the quote and the schedule.

Who owns the footage and photos?

Usage and ownership are agreed in writing in the quote before we shoot, so the rights match how and where you'll run the work.
