Filming
VLVideo Studio Productions consists of an experienced team dedicated to the work they produce. Our camera operators focus their style on reportage to cover all the important elements of the event. Throughout the day we pride ourselves on staying discreet to allow your guests to enjoy their time during your special day. The detail in planning an event is crucial in order to make it a special day. We believe that detail is everything and is an important aspect to consider when filming, as you only get each moment once before it becomes a memory.
Our filming packages are competitively priced all providing a unique cinematic style. We also provide and can supply you with a HD Blu-ray Disc of your wedding day.
We recommend all couples wishing to book our filming service to arrange a free consultation with us at an early stage to allow you to share your views and ideas with us.
A second consultation is advised about 1 month before the event so the finer details can be discussed and an itinerary of the day can be provided.
Our team of videographers will be hands on and will try to help ensure the day runs smoothly for you. We use high-end Digital Broadcast quality camcorders to film giving you the option of both High Definition (HD Blu-Ray) or Standard Definition DVD in a true widescreen format. Depending on the selected package, three cameras will be utilized to give a fuller picture of the day from different perspectives. We often use a wireless radio microphone to capture the best audio during the ceremony.
We also offer pre wedding documentary style video shoots, perfect to play at your event such as the wedding reception. Guests can watch on the venue plasma screen before you make your grand entrance. We also use parts of the pre-shoot within the trailer and give the option of recording messages to one another.
With all our packages clients are offered an unedited version of their special day. This must be requested at the time of the booking as the master footage is only retained for a limited period of 1 month.
A deposit is required at the time of booking to reserve the date of your wedding and is non refundable.
Editing
Your wedding film will be edited and color graded using our top of the range-editing suites giving the DVD a unique film look and making it much exciting to watch. Audio levels are corrected and various special effects can be applied along with your personal choice of music dubbed in parts of the film as light background music. We have an extensive song catalogue to assist with the music selection if you require. We advice all couples to provide us with your music selection before the wedding day as this can delay the editing process.
Your final wedding DVD is carefully edited and chapter to reflect the individuality of your wedding day. The event is sequenced in a logical manner as it happened on the day using scenes. Each DVD will have a menu screen with scene selection and a trailer video highlighting the best moments of the day. The DVD is photo personalized with artwork and we can provide DVD’s in an alternative format for family members abroad. The completed product can take up to 12 weeks or more depending on the time of year. Rest assured that we are fully insured and have Public and Product Liability Insurance to cover every eventuality.
Every client is provided a proof disc within 3 to 4 months, giving you the opportunity to note down any amendments you wish to be made to the final film.
