CLIP: Wedding Trailer

Jerome-
I enjoyed your trailer so much I had to do one of my own for the wedding I'm currently editing. I know the ending title is a standard trailer fare, as well as the 'available soon on dvd' V/O, but do you feel I borrowed too much from your trailer's style? If I'm crossing the line and taking too much from you and your work, just let me know...(imitation IS the sincerest form of flattery, you know ;) )
And thanks for the inspiration. I like the whole concept, as it's a relatively quick and painless way to throw a teaser up right after the wedding. Can you guess where I grabbed the music from?

I won't be a tellen, not that I use it of course. I'll use royalty free instead. Besides they charge to much over here as it is £56 just for three dvd's. Fair enough you do get 30 min of music but considering the top package here is £600. That does not leave much for the poor video guy after his expenses. I put that cost to the b&g if they want it and explain that it is the cost of copyright music on there video.

Hey Vincent. I don't mind you adopting that style. I liked your edit.... Email sent you as well.

Thanks Jerome. Appreciate the comments.

Hi Jerome!

Finally got to download and watch the trailer. My internet connection has been finicky and it would only partially download the trailer.

I really liked the VO! It really made the trailer cool.

My only comment is that in the beginning with the little girls singing over the music, it sounded kinda creepy... no offense.

I loved the videos. And the kids singing is sort of scary. The best way to make something scary is to mix kids singing with any kind of background music. It's one of the oldest movie tricks. But I still loved the videos you both made.

Thanks Mike. It was my first one, and I know I need to improve on the V/O, but it was fun and relatively quick, and the B&G loved it, so I'm happy with it.
