Good video editors that need to take 6 hours of footage and edit down to an hour must first eliminate bad footage, redundant footage etc. until they have only about 2 hours of footage to work with. From there they will edit to what’s important and special. The final editing technique will be the transitions from scene to scene and special effects and music choices. Ask to see samples of the videographers work to determine if their concepts are what you like. All of our editing is finalized by Joan. So all of our samples you see are the final editing and producing work of her. Beware that some videography companies show you demos that are not going to be the work of the person that is going to do your video!

Your video can be either documentary style or cinematic style. Documentary style is more like the footage as the event unfolds in real time whereas cinematic style is more like a movie. Generally if you want cinematic style we need to use 2 cameras and probably the jib crane for overhead video. The editing takes twice as long so naturally the cost is more but the results are worth it. We can also offer both styles. Most people like the cinematic style because it looks more like a movie and more entertaining to watch.

Book your videographer soon in advance but do your homework. Make sure what your restrictions and policies are at your church, the hall etc. Some places won’t even allow your photographer or videography because they want you to buy their package… so be sure to find out! Some videographers keep their prices a secret. We like to give you some of our prices and of course we can vary and create a package that works for you. Keep in mind that once we all agree on the price you can still add or make changes but please understand that time is money and we have to charge for changes.
