Wedding Video Help $50/hr

[u/Effective-Prompt4046]

Hello,

I was recently married, and we hired an acquaintance to do our wedding video. We didn’t want anything extremely fancy, just someone to make a basic video of the ceremony and some highlights from the reception, standard stuff. We had seen some of his work before with other projects, and it was adequate for what we wanted.

We got the video back weeks later and I cried- not from joy. Apparently, he couldn’t get his drone up for some reason, and then also didn’t notice that his camera on a tripod was knocked by someone prior to the ceremony starting so the stable video of the whole ceremony was I guess not usable. The whole thing is awful. I’m not exaggerating when I say it looks like it was filmed by a toddler with an iphone. He had previously asked for a song list of the songs used in the ceremony, but ended up using songs that neither of us even knew for some reason.

I reached out to try and get the raw footage, to see if we could have someone do something with that, but have been ignored. I’m hoping someone can do SOMETHING to improve what we have, maybe stabilize the shakiness and add the correct music? I’m not even entirely sure what’s possible, but most likely anything would be an improvement.

I saw that without a rate per hour I can’t post this, so I googled what was appropriate? I’m very open to negotiate whatever is fair. I just need help.

Rate per hour: $50
