An SDE in Boracay Island
First, if ever any of you guys find yourself in the Philippines, you really HAVE to take the time to go to Boracay Island - one of the finest beaches in the world.
This is one of the most laid back weddings we've ever shot, but the editing of the SDE wasn't though - pressure filled as always. The couple spared no expense - Carolina Herrera Gown, Armani Suit, flying us in etc. The song is Starlight by Muse http://www.jmagbanua.com/vids/janice_alvin.wmv Thanks for watching. |

As always, totally impressed at what you can do for an SDE. Top notch work even if it took you 3 days. The fact that it was an SDE still blows my mind. One of these days I'll get to that level . . one of these days . . .

Jason,
You are one of the true masters, I've often thought your work was some of the best out there... and you edit that stuff in a fraction of the time the rest of us do. It's simply amazing. Couple questions: - Everything seems so well lit all the time. Is this due to lots of windows on location or are you bringing in supplemental lighting? If so, what are you lighting interiors with? - The color correction work was clean and consistent, are you going into these weddings with a pre-determined look and dialing it in on the cameras or are you adding it in post? If in post, what plugins are you using that render fast enough for an SDE? - On average, how long do you have to edit these SDE's? - I'm assuming you pull your SDE footage from firestores or something like that. How do you deal with multiple camera's footage, or is there a dedicated SDE shooter and you only have to worry about footage from one person? ***EDIT*** I just noticed the photos in the book she gave him. How cool is that?? When my wife finally decides to leave me, I'm moving to your country to find a wife. Oh, and I've corrected my spelling mistakes in the original post... maybe I need to wake up fully before posting next time.

Good you mentioned the gift, I totally forgot about it. Alvin gave Janice a Cartier Ladies Tank Watch. Very expensive. But her gift to him was priceless ... an album of her consisting of pictures from a secretly arranged boudoir session with their photographer.
Awesome! |

Jason,
That was ridiculous. Killer shooting skill, colour work, composition, editing and innovative story telling. I really liked that opening sequence of detail shots too. With the colour work however I do notice that the whites get a tad overblown but I can't see many people other then ourselves noticing that. Love your trademark sweeping glidecam shots that you always sprinkle in as well as the bride entering from the white light. ps. I hate you =) |

Hi Jason,
Great work, as usual. I love the colors. I wish you were coming to Orlando. Once they announce the dates for next year, start that visa process. |

Hey Jason great work. My mom's management company designed and runs Discovery Shores, I'll pass the video clip on to her, I think she'll like it.
Including Boy Bawang was genius!

Did they get married in the church just about 1/4 mile down the back road (by the school area)? If it is, I think you made it much nicer looking, than it really is.

I HAD to include BOY BAWANG (cheap Filipino corn snack for the masses), It proved a nice counterpoint to all the designer labels. Thanks Michael! |
