Re: Teaser and photo booth videos (wedding)
Noted, Adrian. That was me being unprepared - too far away from my bag with the mic to grab it when the bride walked by to sneak off and write the letter. Here its an on-camera Rode.

Teaser and photo booth videos (wedding)
On Saturday we worked a wedding, our team, as videography (all day), photo booth, up lighting, and DJ. No, not just the two of us.
When we do a photo booth, along with photo prints on the spot,...

Re: Things that can go wrong with sound
Michael,
I know I just set the pocket recorder on the lectern. We use 3, and usually its one on the groom, one on the lectern, and the 3rd might be by the singer, or stashed somewhere else, if I...

Re: Things that can go wrong with sound
I came here to post a similar thing, Adrian.
During the ceremony, the priest reached under his robes to mute his own wireless mic, and accidentally yanked the cord/mic for me off his collar. It...

Re: How I hate DVDs....
Based on info available, the worst area for the U.K. is northeast England, with "only" 77% of households have a high speed connection. Most areas were closer to 90%.
I'd presume its similar to...

Re: REQ: Minimum Setup Advice
Michael, those Tascams are decent, so no worries. I like the slimmer Olympus DM600 series for the groom's pocket, with a matchstick mic, but use two Tascams for other spots.
I finally got my...

Re: Do you Always shoot the wedding dress?
I recently picked up a few things to try and help me when shooting details, dress or not.

Re: Do you Always shoot the wedding dress?
It *can* be one of those things you ask her about, there will be brides who don't actually care about it. Its just another thing.
However, I always shoot the dress. If you don't have anywhere to...

2 tripods, or 1 tripod and 1 monopod
Rode Mic for your walking around is good. Either 2-3...

Re: 1st dances
Like the vows, the 1st dance is one of those times I really like the intimacy of a tight shot.
Our current setup is 3 cameras. The two 70Ds get their 40mm f/2.8 STM and the new 24mm f/2.8 STM if...

Re: Photo + Video - One Man
Oh, I didn't mean 4K stills, I meant 4K would allow reframing in post, so then I could focus more on stills with a separate camera. My bad.
For instance, I like cameras up front, in the side...

Re: Photo + Video - One Man
Ha, LOLz.

Re: Music licensing expense and time

Similar to knowing I'll have to pay out $50 in USB/DVD case costs, I build the licensing into my price, and assume 2-4 songs, and will ask the client if they want an...

Re: Two body 7D or one body 6D

If you're going to get a crop factor Canon, might as well get the 70D. The STM lenses to take full advantage of the facial-tracking auto focus are...

Just watched Michael Keaton's new movie, Birdman, and it was shot in a style to look like one long take. Of course it wasn't, but its still incredibly impressive. This includes both the subtle cut...

Re: Spending money where it matters to brides
I'll assume those videos are short, 5 minutes or so. Have you ever asked those brides about the longer videos? Is that really all they want, a music video?
I'd be curious to know.
