PRODUCTION VALUE

Professional video camera, expert operator, multiple points-of-view (POVs), redundant audio backup and resources, consistent audio levels, color correction, white balancing, solid shooting techniques and great framing are all important ingredients of high production value.

A second tier to this is the creative content: unique angles, exceptionally intimate and poignant shots, high emotional quotient, special moves using any of a number of available camera stabilization systems at a broad range of functionality.

A third tier is treatments, special effects, etc. and knowing when to use them, and when to let the visuals and audio stand on their own merits. This tier is most successful when used minimally and when the artist has practiced and studied the applications and learned how to use them to the best effect, or not.

 

  • Engagement/ Bridal "Video Interview Love Story"

    The Love Story is an interview with the bride and her fiancé during which they tell the story of how they met, and how their relationship developed to bring them to this point. Apart from the wedding vows, the Love Story is probably the most emotion-packed segment of your wedding. The engagement shoot is scheduled at your location of choice months before the wedding.

    The Love Story should be set in an attractive location, either indoors or out. Gardens & parks are good outdoor choices. Museums & upscale homes are possible indoor spots. Ideally, you should find a location that has some special significance, perhaps the spot where he proposed, or the site of the first date. It can simply be shot at the bride's home, which is usually convenient for the bride and groom.

    We can interview the couple together, but our experience has been that you'll get better responses if we interview the bride and groom individually. We ask each of them the same questions, and avoid any question that can be answered as a simple response. We avoid simple "yes" or "no" answers. We want them to relate a story, so we phrase the question, not as a question, but as a directive, such as:

    • Tell me about yourself…just a little capsule biography (We can use this as voiceover later in the Baby through Adult photo montage)
    • Tell me how you met
    • Tell me about your first date
    • What did your parents/ friends think of him/ her
    • Tell me how the relationship deepened and grew
    • When did you first know he/she was the "one"?
    • Who was the first one to tell the other "I love you," and when was that?
    • Tell me about how you/ he proposed
    • What do you like best about him/ her? Favorite (and least favorite) attributes
    • Tell me about your most embarrassing moment with him/ her
    • Someday your kids will watch this video. What can you tell them about how to find the "right someone?"
    • What are your plans for the future?

    When cut together, the two viewpoints can be funny, touching, poignant, or all three.

    Romantic cutaway shots are an important feature of the Love Story. We get footage of the couple walking together, sharing a glass of wine, playing, embracing, and kissing.

    Because the bride will likely have her hair and makeup done as a test run in advance of her wedding day, this is something that we can schedule with the photographer's own Engagement shoot. By doing so, we help consolidate the bride & Groom’s schedule.

    It also gives us the opportunity to study you photographically - to learn the angles to show your best. Sometimes we will step back and allow the two of you to forget we're in the background. We watch the two of you spending time together in love. Our aim is to capture your genuine smiles and spontaneous moments together. Then when your wedding day arrives, we know better than anyone else how to capture the two of you in your wedding photographs.

    The Love Story is recorded onto your wedding movie. What better way to start off the wedding movie then with romantic cutaway shots and an Interview. The Love Story is an interview with the bride and her fiancé during which they tell the story of how they met, and how their relationship developed to bring them to this point. Apart from the wedding vows, the Love Story is probably the most emotion-packed segment of your wedding.
