People have videos of their wedding made for several reasons. Once excellent reason is simply to cause those that weren’t lucky to be there a bit of jealousy. And if the wedding ceremony was held in the Bahamas or a foreign country, so much the better. The videographer can include outside location shots of the wedding location, fun recreational events that are taking place, and some of the areas unique points of interest.
Commissioning a videographer to produce a heartfelt wedding videos prices is a priceless and perfect gift to give to yourselves as a newly married couple.
The advantages of a video over a photograph are many. Video can present events in a way that a photo simply can’t. A video can capture ambience. It can capture feelings. It can capture sound. It can make you feel almost like you’re at the ceremony. By contrast, a photo, is a point in time. It captures that moment, but doesn’t capture what went before or after that moment. It’s good to have both, and a lot of weddings do. But a wedding video really lets you truly relive the moment again.
The state and capabilities of video equipment has not stood still over the past ten year. Today, professional videographers using state of the art video equipment and editing tools can churn out amazing videos that rival those produced by the major studios. In addition, the new digital formats allow editing equipment to place all kinds of special effects into the video which would have been unheard of a few years ago.
One technical question that you may want to ask the videographer is what type of format the video will be filmed in – digital high def or film. THe reason is the digital technology will let an editor include really incredible transitions and special effects and navigation techniques that won’t be possible on film.
Sometimes your wedding photographer will be the same person as your videographer, and sometimes they’ll be different. If they are different, you want to get them both together so they can co-ordinate their schedules, shot setups, and so on. They both will need schedules of what’s going on that day, at what time, and exactly which parts of the day and ceremony they each will be filming. You’ll especially need to let them know of any of the out of the ordinary special events that are happening at the wedding that you want to to be sure to capture on film.
Whenever you interview a videographer, one of the most important questions you want to ask him after viewing his portfolio, is if he does all of the work himself. If he doesn’t, you’ll want to know which parts he does and which parts he farms out. Some videographers and video companies contract out a fair percentage of their work. You’re paying for his services, you want to make sure that you get them.
A lot of video companies will have more than one camera at the wedding event. This is an advantage as they’ll be able to record multiple events that are happening at the same time. For instance, during the actual ceremony, one camera will of course be trained on the bride. But you also want to capture the reactions of the guests. So the videographer should have one or more cameras aimed at the wedding guests.
