Re: Ring shot ideas
I love that the Joe Simon video is of Tom Werner('s daughter).
Yes, just any old video from Joe Simon -- and it happens to be the wedding video of the Boston Red Sox co-owner's daughter.

Re: FCP7 settings for XF300
As an XF300 user, I totally agree with the "Natives" here. I use native import (log and transfer) exclusively for XF300-only timelines. When I combine the XF300 with the C100, then, alas, I do...

Re: Please review my first wedding film!
Thanks for posting, Mitch. You've come to the right place as the lessons here are invaluable. You're well on your way for a first video.
General suggestion about the coloring: I'd edge it a...

Re: Canon C100 Shutter Speed 30?
I am also a 30p 1/60 guy, but I won't hesitate to turn down the speed to 1/30 in really dark settings where there's no fast movement.
I was at a really dark wedding (at night in the rain with...

Re: Images for DVD Covers
Most couples I'm finding are getting their photos in digital hi-res (along with albums) from their photographers. So I just always put it in the hands of the couples. If they are able and inclined...

Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
I hear you, Adrian, agreed.
Most of my wedding clients actually *do* ask for blu-ray -- and I give *every* wedding client a blu-ray regardless (with DVD as backup for those few in our area who...

Not a great sign for continued availability, perhaps?

Re: Changing from C100 to A7s?
It sounds like size is the biggest issue for you. I don't know the A7s, I confess, but experience and good comparison videos have shown how the C100 outperforms the 5D3 in terms of dynamic range and...

Ditto. I put "payment must be received within three (3) days of contract date".
Then, in practice, when it's been more than three days, if someone else calls up, I give the original couple one...

Re: Length of long version
All on one disc -- but the Highlights play first (if you go to "Play Film" on main menu). If you go to the chapters, you can see the running footage chapters, too. So they can choose.
As things...

Re: Length of long version
Cool, Chris.
For my "running footage" (the long part, but the short part to edit), I *basically* do what you do but in a different way. I *do* have it all on one timeline, but set chapter marks...

Re: Wedding Trailers
I started mixing in the term "short form" (which is basically highlights in my lingo) to mean something that is less chronological and linear, perhaps, than just a straight highlights. The two could...

Re: Wedding Trailers
Yes! At least in my case, that's right. About 15 minutes is what my "highlights" comes out to. A preview or trailer is usually a short song or part of a song (2-3 minutes).

Re: Length of long version
3 minute trailer (serves as intro to the film, eventually, too)
15 minute highlights
90 or so minutes of "running footage", chapterized, which they can watch as desired.
