WHAT IS YOUR FILMING STYLE?
We break away from the traditional documentary "wedding video" style as film and edit in a cinematic story telling style to create a "Wedding Film" of your day. What that means is we're using mirrorless cameras and pairing the best lens choice for specific shots, just like your photographer would use, only we shoot video. Along with our tripod and monopods we are also using the newest cinematic tools available such as Gimbals and Drones to capture the most elegant and unique shots as possible.
HOW DO YOU CAPTURE AUDIO?
They say no one notices good audio but EVERYONE notices bad audio! That's very true and bad audio really hurts your film watching experience. We use a variety of tools and state of the art audio gear to get the best quality sound possible . Here is our set up :
CEREMONY:
*2 Lavalier mics (1) Groom and (1) Officiant
* DAR (Digital Audio Recorder) for readings Zoom F6
* DAR (Digital Audio Recorder) For other singers or musicians as needed Zoom F3
RECEPTION:
*Wireless Mic for Recording Speeches
*DAR (Digital Audio Recorder) for speeches
* Direct Feed from DJ if available
WHAT CAMERAS DO YOU USE?
We use all Canon Cameras and Lenses;
Canon R5
Canon R6
Canon R6 Mark ll
Sony
DO YOU USE LIGHTS?
For the ceremony we never use lighting. For the reception we only use lighting as needed to keep the ambience of the event. We do use light for the the speeches, and 1st Dance and Parent Dances to add a really nice look to the event. We use a Practilite 602 which is used as a spot light to focus on event.
HOW LONG WILL THE FINAL FILM BE?
We specialize in “Full Length Films ” that run approximately. 45 - 60 minutes in length. We also create 1:00 Social Media Teasers and 3-4 Highlight Films. Here is what we like to include during your wedding day:
*Getting Ready
*Pre-Ceremony
*Details at Ceremony
*Formals
*Cocktail Hour
*Reception Details
*Grand Entrances
*1st Dance
*Speeches/Blessings
*Parent Dances
*Cake Cutting
*Dancing (lots of it for the highlights)
*Bouquet & Garter Toss
*Special Dances
*Anything Else that's needed.
HOW LONG AFTER THE WEDDING WILL I RECEIVE MY FILM?
Depending on the time of year and how many weddings we have filmed right before your wedding the turn around time is 8 to 12 weeks. The editing is a very important step in creating an amazing wedding film and it includes multi camera angles, color grading and audio editing and music editing.
DO WE HAVE TO MEET TO BOOK WITH YOU?
No you do not need to meet with us to book with us. It's always nice to meet in person to go over the initial details and timeline but due to busy schedules and location issues we know it's not always possible. We do a number of destination weddings each year where it's impossible to meet before the wedding so we know what questions to ask to make the day go smoothly.
HOW DO YOU WORK WITH OUR PHOTOGRAPHER?
We know you have a list of formal photography shots you need to get done and time is always a challenge , we work with the photographers so we can all manage the time so everyone can get their shots.
WHAT DO WE GET AS A FINAL COPY?
We now “stream” your wedding film whether it’s 20 minutes or 120 minutes! It has a Menu and Chapters just like a DVD if you want to see a sample contact us and we’ll send you a link .
