Re: Critique my work (new to this)
Hi Ethan, just wanted to comment that one thing that's interesting about your camera movement is the use of multiple axes. I found that a little inspiring. What I mean is: the steadicam move up to...

Re: Setting up stage shots
Hey Jeff, for my own part I keep rethinking how I cover this part of the day and what I'm trying to get out of it. Currently, the main thing I do is I don't pretend it's not a photoshoot. But I'm...

Re: My first bigger wedding highlight reel
Some awesome lens flares, and that jib work was an eye-opener; I'm very jealous.

I'm curious -- what do you feel you took from Ray Roman...

Re: 2nd Wedding: Feedback Would Really Help!

Couple more comments:
1:26: dropped frame (one frame of black)

Hey Noa, some random comments:

Re: Sending samples and getting turned down
Clive, the priests here (of all faiths) are usually quite willing. Been turned down a few times by grumpy old ones, but generally they're used to it. If not, just say you want to make sure the couple...

Re: Sending samples and getting turned down
Clive, I'd always mic the priest as well as the podium. Then you've got everyone who says anything except the father of the bride. Won't take you 20 min, especially if you have everything connected...

Re: Lens Hoods
No lens hoods for me. If there's lens flare, either: (a) I'll live with it, and probably like it; or (b) a cupped hand should be good enough for a while.
The number of lenses I'm taking to...

Re: 2nd Wedding: Feedback Would Really Help!
