The Eye-catching Nature of Food GIFs
This homemade brisket ramen was a fun way to put some smoked brisket to use, especially during the cloudy and cold days of January.
Also, the many components in this single dish allowed me to create a gif that showcased the construction of the entire bowl.
Utilizing a gif vs. a static image amplifies the message that this meal is the sum of many parts. In addition, it allows the viewer to go along for a visual ride as the pieces are placed one by one.
Below you can see an individual image from this session, which also looks delicious, but the gifs animation tells the story about the dish and pulls attention.
