Recording the Expressions and Comments of Guests

Create an awesome wedding video for the bride and groom!

 

o Setting the shot from eye level to chest level

.

Discussing and Planning Before the Event

Before the day of the wedding reception, it is important to discuss with the bride and groom about various details such as the order of the ceremony and whether there are any entertainment programs or change of clothes.

By understanding the preferences of the bride and groom, you will be able to shoot more appropriately.

oFinding out the route of entrance

.

The highlight of a wedding reception is the entrance of the bride and groom. Find out which door they will enter from and the route they will take from the person-in-charge of the wedding hall in advance. Set up the tripod at a place where you can follow the couple using zoom without having to move around.

oNumber of times and timing of clothes-changing

Find out the timing of any changing of clothes so as to capture the scene well when the bride and groom enter again.

You can also make use the time while the bride and groom are changing to record comments of well wishes from the guests.

Finding the Right Angle to Capture Both Bride and Groom

oComposing the picture with the groom in front and the guests at the back

.

You can record comments from the guest by going around asking, "Please say a few words for the bride and groom".

This can be done at the guests' waiting room, when the bride and groom are changing, or during the entertainment programs.

.

The main characters of a wedding are of course the bride and groom. Record their expressions clearly during the toast, speech, entertainment programs, and other scenes.

Another recommendation is to capture the face shots of the guests, then pan towards the groom. Picture composition containing the crowd of guests only lacks fun, so be sure to pay attention to the shooting angle and size.
