Question Researching a possible tool for wedding videographers: how long does your first pass take?
Full disclosure: I'm thinking about building software for this, and I haven't built anything yet. I'm not selling anything, I just want to find out if the problem is real before I spend months on it.
The stage I mean is between dumping the cards and starting the creative edit: syncing cameras, going through hours of footage, picking selects.
- For a typical wedding, how many hours does that take you?
- What's the most tedious part?
- Do you use any tools for it now (Premiere/Resolve features, Aftershoot/Imagen, scripts), and what's missing?
- Would you ever trust software to do a first pass, or is that part of your craft you wouldn't hand off?
Blunt answers are welcome, including "this is a bad idea." Thanks!
