wedding preview
 
here's a preview for my last wedding. Dont worry, filming weddings isn't my real job :-)

the movie takes about 20-30 seconds to load. I dont fully understand everything that goes into uploading videos.

let me know what you think.

Wow, it was very nice. Have you seen the eleite video Wedding companion instructional DVD?
I'm editing my first wedding video and I hope it is as good as yours was!

I haven't seen it yet... to tell you the truth i'm a little interested in the training DVD that Patrick Moreau and crew might come out with... Whats the other one like?? any ideas?
Thanks for your response, it was a very small wedding... I just bought a brand new manfrotto tripod that i was looking forward to using. Unfortunately, there were no chairs for people to sit down. So everyone gathered around the B&G and started creeping closer and closer to get the best pictures. I had to shoot mostly everything handheld to keep people out of my way. not only that, in most of the frames during the ceremony I have some guy who was like 2 feet from the B&G taking pictures. It looks ridiculous. :-(

Hmm, filming weddings IS my job and I never get helicopter shots!! Nice work.

well thats what i do for a living... I work and fly on helo's for the CG... The groom is a friend of mine from work... All the guys at work knew where and at what time he was getting married so they wanted to do a fly over...

Sad part was that the guy who filmed it used the zoom button a little to much... so the image is really shaky for most of it... I'm still happy to be able to take out the 2 or 3 seconds of usable footage though...

don't have the QuickTime update at work :( I will see when I get home

I like the change of focus when the bride looks back at the groom, even though I predicted it, probably because I'm a videographer :) Why did you choose to do it in B&W?

thanks for sharing!

I dont have a good reason for B&W. Actually I have a a bunch of B&W pictures scrolling through as my desktop wallpaper. They look so much better then in color. so i decided to try it out see what it looks like...
Should i think twice about doing something like that in the future???
