CLIP: Wedding Trailer
Hello everyone! I visit these forums mostly for camera research and members of the other 2 big wedding forums out there.
Thought I would see what you all think of one of my trailers. Feel free to post any kind of feedback! They are huge movie buffs and wanted something a little different for wedding videos and wanted to incorporate a familiar aspect to trailers if it were possible, so I hired a "Mr. Voice" to do the VO. www.jcdv.com/WMV/jerrod_crissy_ct.wmv |
I liked the pacing, but what really stood out to me (besides the trailer styling, of course) was how brilliantly the oranges came through, especially with the flower shots. What did you use to bring it out so well? Magic Bullet?
Nice job, Jerome--thanks for posting it.. |

I liked the idea and the pacing. The VO did a good job and had a nice feel. I thought several shots could use some more post on them, som elooked really flat and unbalanced, which stands ot even more when you have some other gorgeous shots. The audio at the beginning also sounded very busy, and therefore distracting, but thats just what I caught.

Thanks again! |
Music
If you don't mind me asking where did you get that music? I have a non-wedding releated video that will fit perfectly with that style, by the way very nice video!
I had two friends next to the computer watching (no video background) and they were amazed! |

Its funny to watch people's reactions who do not have a video background compared to those that do... |
I thought the video and concept was very well done. May have to make use of it myself. However I had a very hard time picking out the VO from the background music.

Jerome--On the subject of how people with no video editing experience view footage differently than we do--when I delivered my very first (non-family) wedding package to the b&g, I sat down and watched with them for a bit. They were enjoying it immensely but I made the mistake of pointing out to them every little mistake I had made with the camera work, none of it which was noticed by them. I now keep my critical eye for my post work (and viewing stuff put up on this forum for critique) and don't share it with my clients...they're much happier that way...

Vince, do you still watch the final vids with your client's??? To me, I find this very odd/strange, something I would never do.
I could understand this if you're allowing them to aid with the edits. Quote:

Yeah, I made that mistake during my first year. After doing about 6 weddings I met with a potential client and pointed out somethings and lost the booking due to that fact. From that point on, I never point out things to past, current, or potential clients.

No Joe, I don't do this with any of my clients as a regular thing. It's just that I had wrapped up my first full package so I called the b&g and told them I was going to be out their way and could drop it off (it was a beautiful day for a ride on the bike). They invited me to sit down and chat and, of course, they wanted to take a look at the finished product, so I stayed and watched for about 15 min with them. If it ever happens again I'll keep my mouth closed.

This is great video. I'm sure the b&g loved it.
VO person is great. Pace and tempo are on point with the music selection. You should think about doing this more for your clients as something as a preview or the first part of the DVD... I enjoyed it and think most of here have (from our pov) |
