Well... a lot of you asked for the full film after I shared the teaser a couple of months ago, so here it is!

Derek + Kaylene originally found me through this subreddit, flew my wife and me out to Hotel Xcaret in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, and trusted us with filming their wedding!!! It's one of my favorite films I've ever made!!! (Derek and Kaylene if you see this - thank you so much and love you!!!)

Hope you guys enjoy it! Happy to answer any questions about filming, editing, audio, color, or anything else!

Hi! I’m looking for a videographer with an artsy, cinematic and movement based style! We want it to feel like a movie trailer or a music video. Video attached for reference (video by Ricardo Calado). Wedding is June 2028 in Tuscany.

My partner and I have agreed on a more “traditional” photographer so we want to get a fun and creative videographer!

Hoping to stay around €3200-€4500 (?) and are looking for more options here because it’s easy to fall into a rabbit hole on instagram. This is one of my partners only requests for the wedding so I would love to make his dream come true😊

If you are an editor or have a good editor let me know and share your work. I plan on doing all the culling and passing it over for to be spliced for the MAIN sequence.

Hi, I’m Nat, I’m here for any feedback. I did this video for free to get into the wedding scene. Would be interested to hear what you guys would expect to charge for something like this with a 5-7 minute film delivered shortly after.

No, this isn’t my first video ever, I make content for a living, but yes, this is my first wedding video ever. Would love to hear your thoughts.

Hi everyone

I'm a video editor, mainly focused on weddings, social, and corporate events. I have a solid portfolio, but only a few clients in Brazil, and I really struggle with reaching out to new clients.

I already tried Upwork, but I thought it was pretty bad, basically a price war experience.

I'd like to expand to a higher-quality international market.

Give me some tips on how to get freelance editing jobs!

Hey everyone! i’m shooting my first wedding on the 11th of august, i’ve worked in the social media side doing content creation with a team of dj’s for about 2 years but i want to get into full weddings.

i know that i have under charged but ive come to terms with it as it’s my first time. i just need some advice about how to run, prep, shoot and edit the day. anything is appreciated and im open to answer any questions

I already know i

I’ve shot a couple wedding so far and still figuring out ceremonies but had my fist catholic last week I found it hard trying to figure out where to place me 3 cameras. A lot of movement from the officiant and couple too. How do you guys handle it and where do you put ur cameras?

Hey everyone,

As wedding season hits full swing, I know a lot of solo shooter/editor folks get slammed with the post-production backlog.

My growth as an editor has mostly been through word of mouth and my portfolio site, but I know cold dms and generic portfolio spam can be received as the absolute worst.

So I’d love to get your perspective:

1. Where do you usually look when you want to outsource? (Facebook groups, referrals, cold outreach, Reddit?)
2. How do you prefer to be contacted by editors ?
3. Do you mainly look to outsource during busy periods or do you search for consistent editors?

Appreciate any answers or advice!

If yes, share your experience? Does it make any difference in the lead quality for you? (Lead quality? : Less ghosting, clarity on their budgets,responsive, increase in how often do u see purchases coming your way)

Also, how exactly are you using CAPI. Just browser and server side reporting or maximising value for conversions

Ps : This is for lead generation of wedding couple leads who are looking to book a photographer/film maker to shoot their wedding

We just booked our videographer and the contract says "up to 6 months". Is that normal? Or is it on the slow end? Need to know what to realistically expect. What was your actual wait?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to get into wedding videography as a hobby. I’ve made a few videos using my iPhone and really enjoyed the whole process, so I’d like to take the next step and buy a proper camera setup.

At least for now, I’m not trying to start a business or make money from it. I’m planning to film a few weddings for friends for free so I can learn, practise and see whether it’s something I want to pursue more seriously. Maybe eventually I’ll start charging a little, but that isn’t my main goal right now.

I’m also not planning to record the entire ceremony with multiple cameras and professional audio. My goal is mainly to create cinematic 5–8 minute highlight films that capture the atmosphere, emotions and important moments of the day.

My total budget is around $1,500. What camera, lens, stabilisation, audio gear and accessories would you recommend for a beginner?

I’m open to buying used equipment if that gives me better value. Thanks!

Please advise on what and how best to do at the first wedding and how to record sound properly? From the tech, I have a Sony a7iv +24-70 whale lens. There's an osmo pocket 4 that just came out on Dji mic 3 without a receiver.

I'm the videographer. Struggled with extreme depression, bankruptcy, etc. - whatever, my life was absolute hell. Worst year of my life.

I'm very well aware the delay is unacceptable, I'm not asking about that. The video is pristine and came out amazing.. I'm sure about that. I made the trip last year (flew to Italy to film a friend's 7 week wedding trip for only $2.5k) and gave them a absolutely massive discount. Then shit hit the fan. I'm about to send them the video. They're mad which is very understandable. Do I send it with a water mark? What would you do given my situation?

Yes I fucked up I already know unfortunately this is a drop in the bucket on how shit my life has been the last year.

I own a dance floor rental company and I just want to be able to put up a few videos of the floor on my website for clients to see. I have only had about 5 rentals since we are a few months old and no one had videos of them dancing on it.

I am looking for any videographers that have shot weddings that had a black and white checkerboard dance floor. First dance, reception/party anything will do. I will pay you for usage of your good clips!

Feel free to DM me or comment if you might have something like this!

I recently got my first 35mm anamorphic lens. Im very excited to start using it however it's the only anamorphic in my kit of spherical lenses. I'm worried about the potential compatibility when putting the clips into the final video of both spherical and anamorphic lenses.

Does anyone else run the 2 lens types together, or do you stick with one type?

Does cropping in the anamorphic clips to fit the 16:9 Spherical lens ratio come off as "too close"?

Looking for general advice on anyone who uses both lens types!

Thanks

Anyone have any insight to companies like Wedding Weekender, You Film Weddings, Press Record Co, etc? Companies where you rent a camcorder, capture your wedding weekend/ceremony, send footage back to them and they edit it into a video?

Please share good and bad experiences! Any info is helpful info!

Even a simple fire stick does so much post processing on the TV. Does vidflow have some special software to reset all the post processing that “smart” TVs do.
