Jody Lichtor: Beyond the Table: A Stylist's Tale in Food, Film, & Jewelry
Manage episode 416057058 series 2793436
She boasts extensive experience as a food and prop stylist, with a vast array of clients. Her journey began as a young ballet dancer and was a creative child who eventually landed a career as a dental hygienist—a role she continues to fulfill today. Jody delves into her interpretation of beautification, which Tommy links to her involvement with
visual, performing arts, and design. As longtime member of Aging but Dangerous Women, “a movement focused on healthy aging and living dangerously through fun, spirit and style”, she was a part of a select group ranging in age from 50-80, who modeled for large charity events.
Her career in the film industry included various positions on feature films, cable television shows, commercials, high end corporate videos, catalogue and print media advertising. After being hired as a food stylist for an informercial for Ron Popiel’s Rotisserie 2000, Jody narrowed her scope of work to food and prop styling. For several months in 2006, she worked as an in-house producer for Andrew Zimmern, coordinating with his radio show and television segment producers, and doing research in support of his columns and written publications.
She shares insights into the techniques and props employed in food photography, such as those seen in the "Got Milk"; campaign where yogurt was used. Questions arise about the financial prospects, competitiveness, and outlook of this profession.
Jody's contributions extend beyond her career, as she served for many years on the
board of Minnesota Women in Film & Television and being involved with Women Who
Really Cook, an organization of professional women in the food industry. Additionally, she indulges in a side venture of repurposing and designing vintage jewelry, offering opportunities for connection. Our conversation concludes with a glimpse into her future aspirations.
