1. Experience

A lot of college students get started in video by filming wedding videos. Think about that for a second, do you want to trust your once in a lifetime wedding to someone who is just learning? There's no margin of error for a wedding video, key moments happen fast and you need a professional and creative videographer to capture those quick candid moments. Always go with experience.

2. Equipment

The best equipment brings the best quality. One thing though, it does not guarantee that your video will have creative quality. Make sure your videographer has the latest 3 Chip (3CCD) or CMOS professional broadcast quality digital cameras. These cameras offer amazing quality, especially since lots of weddings take place in low light conditions. Always remember, the equipment alone doesn't make a great wedding video. Make sure your videographer has talent and creativity. Choose a videographer who loves their job, and confirms with you what you require. Sydney Wedding Videos, videographers pays close attention to the details that matter most to you.

3. Editing

This is a must for a wedding video. Some embarrassing moments are bound to happen and could be captured. These embarrassing moments should be edited out in the editing stage. At the same time, funny and humorous footage captured should be included in the final finished DVD as long as it is tasteful and suitable.
Everything starts with great footage. A wedding videographer won't have much to edit if there aren't any good quality shots of the bride and groom, family and friends all having a great time. In all respects this means, I would have to say that editing is extremely important to Sydney Wedding Videos because it allows us to create the wedding video story and set the tone and feeling of that special wedding day. Graphics, tittles and special effects all happen during editing. It is true that not all Videographers are good editors, so a creative videographer has an advantage when producing the final wedding DVD. Ask any Director or Producer of a major motion picture you have seen, and they all say the same. Great (not just good) editing is crucial to the success of the story.

Generally, 3 - 4 hours of editing is required per each attended hour. A 12 hour wedding will take approximately 42 hours of editing, or a good 2 to 3 weeks to finalize.

4. Always Use Two Cameras

What makes this feature great is the fact that multiple angles can be taken at your ceremony. Close ups of both the groom and bride can be transitioned from a view of the altar during the ceremony. It also allows for more creativity during editing. Imagine sitting thru the entire ceremony with only one angle all the time. Make it a little more fun with two cameras and maybe a third static camera at your ceremony so there are multiple views all the time.

5. Highlight Montage

This is one of the many favourite features about a wedding video. The Highlight montage is always set to a beautiful song. Smooth transitions take the viewer thru the entire wedding day. Key moments and precious memories. It moves the heart as it focuses on the beauty of the bride and handsomeness of the groom via close ups and zoom outs all set to one of your favourite songs
This is a must have in every wedding video, not for its emotional impact, but also because it's great to show family and friends if they don't want to watch the entire wedding video. The Highlight montage is a really excels when coupled up to the guest having a great time at the wedding reception.
The highlights are a big pleaser to watch among new married couple, family and friends.
