o Will the camera be 'in our face'?
- Many people comment that they hardly even noticed us filming. o Will you edit anything out of our wedding video? -
No, not unless you ask us to in advance. Otherwise we leave all clips in unless there is a technical reason to take it out, but we edit
each to include just the interesting/important moments, and allow a natural transition to the next.o
Why can the cost vary so much between videographers?
- The saying that "you get what you pay for" is a good guide. With the increasing specifications in video equipment and computer editing software, it is easy for people to call themselves a 'professional videographer' – but, consider these questions as a starter: is it their full time job?; are they qualified?; do they use recognised professional equipment?; are they fully insured for equipment, public liability, and professional indemnity?; what exactly is included in the service offered?; do they have and always carry back-up equipment?; is their knowledge kept current by professional association membership?
o Can my wedding be videoed at any venue? - It can depend on where you are getting married. The majority of religious venues welcome videographers who follow the rules. These are that you dress and behave appropriately
and film the entire ceremony on tripod from an agreed fixed spot using existing light, only moving to cover the signing of the register and to await the couple coming down the aisle at the end. Many churches do
not allow more than one camera and most quite naturally prefer established videographers like us whom they know and trust. There are a few officiators who consider that recording distracts from the religious
ceremony. In our experience videography is always permitted at civil ceremonies. |
