Re: Why do brides value photos more than video?
Some more random thoughts I wanted to add:
-- Ironically, the fact that photo is a more democratic art form -- everyone's got a camera, everyone takes photos all the time, everyone circulates...

Re: Bangladeshi reception
Hey James, cheers for the comment.
I produced a "sort of" long form for this one. I mean, it had all the formal parts in full (entrance, speeches, dances), but none of the stuff in between.

Re: Issue with Zoom H2N peaking out :(
Hi Diana, it's definitely possible. But in terms of what you'd need... Well, the main things would be all the various connections. So, some cable to connect your transmitter to the mixer and then the...

Re: Why do brides value photos more than video?
I think ease of access and sharing is definitely one reason brides value photos over video; functionality of displaying on mantelpiece, bedside table, work desk, computer screensaver etc is another....

Why do brides value photos more than video?
I think we often bemoan the fact that they do, but I don't know if we've ever squarely discussed why they do.
From a videographer perspective, it almost feels absurd. There seem to be lots of...

Re: Issue with Zoom H2N peaking out :(
Hey Diana, Matt's tip is good -- those things are cheap, and it's worth carrying one in your sound bag just in case.
Some other ideas:
-- Ask the DJ beforehand to do a sound check at speeches...

Photo vs video thoughts
I'm practising some photography now, so wanted to post a few musings on how I'm finding it compared to video. If anyone would like to offer any guidance on anything I'm doing wrong, or could be doing...

Re: Most recent wedding
Hey Michael, I'm jealous. That place had a lot of character. I wouldn't know where to point my camera -- too many interesting things everywhere.
I think what I liked most about the video was the...

Just wanted to add the thought that if a bride sees the same cookie cutter framework in video after video, maybe some brides would see that as a good thing -- she knows how it's going to turn out and...

Re: Wedding moves
Thanks Craig. Some time I've got to do a part 2, because there's some longer moves requiring different techniques.
By the way, I've just seen two brilliant uses of slider, and the first one blows...

Re: Hybrid shooting -- good/bad idea?
Hey Warren, I wish! But, nope, these were just plain stills.
Promise I'll post some 1DC frames when I can, but it will be a while. Probably: mid-June. Not only trying to improve first in terms of...

Hey Art, I've checked with my second shooter. There isn't much more to the move than what I've described. He rehearsed it a few times. Was watching the screen as he rotated so he'd end on a nice...
