Wedding Videography: How to Capture a Cinematic Wedding Film
Filming a wedding for the first time can be stressful. If you don’t know what is happening, where you need to be at what time, and exactly what type of video you need to deliver to the couple, you may find yourself getting stressed at the whole situation. Especially knowing that you cannot recreate it! If you miss an important shot, you will not get another chance at filming it. But, filming a wedding does not need to be like that! It doesn’t need to be a stressful experience. As long as you’re prepared, you know what to look for, and you know exactly what is happening on the day, you will be fine!
In this course, I talk through everything you need to think about before the big day and what to look out for, what equipment you need, and how to film certain shots on the day itself. Every wedding is different. With each wedding you film, you will find yourself in new environments with different lighting, different people, and different challenges. But, I will talk about how you can make people feel comfortable, how to capture the important shots as discreetly as possible, and what to look for to piece the edit together.
But, why listen to me? I’m a freelance filmmaker and I’ve filmed many weddings in my time. Through first-hand experience, I’ve learned what to do and what not to do to make a great wedding film without making people feel uncomfortable.
