The Videographer When choosing a videographer, it is important to make
sure it is a company/person who you feel comfortable with since they will be
there with you and your guests throughout the day. Our professional
videographers are friendly and approachable so that you and your guests feel
comfortable being on camera. But, they are also unobtrusive so that they
blend in with the crowd and do not distract from any of your special moments. The Equipment
Our videographers will use Sony HDR FX-1 cameras to film your wedding.
This High-Definition, 3-chip, state of the art camera is a great asset
to providing an excellent quality picture for your final video - whether you
choose a Standard Package or upgrade to a Blu-Ray Package. If you choose
to upgrade to our Blu-Ray Packages, your wedding will be filmed in
High-Definition and the final copy will be a Blu-Ray of your wedding!
The vows are the most important part of your
wedding. Many times, the bride and groom speak their vows so quietly that
the audience, and in-turn our
cameras, cannot hear them. Our videographers will provide the groom with a
wireless lapel microphone that feeds directly to our camera. This
microphone is used during the ceremony to assure you that your vows will be
heard on your video for you to watch and hear in the years to come. The "Couple Cam" The "Couple Cam" is a new addition to
Encore Video Productions.
We will provide you with a small, pocket size video camera that you can use
throughout the day. This camera can film up to one hour's worth of footage
and is a great way to see some candid moments such as the limo ride and the
moments in the waiting rooms right before walking down the aisle. We will
then edit this footage into your video and it will add a whole new perspective
to your wedding day!
Your Video
At Encore Video Productions, we pride ourselves on preserving your memories just
the way that they happened. Your wedding video will unfold with clips of
the preparations at the church put to instrumental music that was used during
your Ceremony. Then it will seamlessly fade into your Ceremony, tastefully
edited between the cameras. After the Ceremony, it will proceed into the
picture taking and excitement that takes place at the church, all carefully edited to another song that was an important part of your Ceremony or
Reception.
Then we proceed to the second disc of your Customized Wedding
Video - The Reception Disc. Music brings together exterior and interior
shots of your Reception site to set the mood, such as the outside marquee, cake,
head table, and guest book. Then you will get a glimpse of your guests
during the cocktail hour. Guests arriving. Friends talking. You
and your new husband
arriving and seeing Aunt Susie for the first time in 10 years. The
Introductions then lead into the rest of this memorable night. You will
see the toasts, cake cutting, traditional dancing, and the bouquet and garter
tosses. Mixed in will be some of the ever popular open dancing, candid
moments, and even your guests giving you some special wishes for only you to
hear. Finally, to end the night you will see you and your new spouse
leaving your Reception to the tune of your first dance.
A La Carte Options If you choose one of our extensive packages, you also will be receiving a photo
montage and/or personalized recap video. With a photo montage, you will
choose 3 songs that represent you and your
fiancé growing up and meeting each
other. We will carefully edit 100 pictures of your choice to these three
songs to create the story.
The recap video is
many couples' favorite part of the final product. What better way to show your
friends your wedding day than with a 15-20 minute music video! You will
choose 4 songs with which we will use to create a music video documenting your
day. The first song will contain footage from your Ceremony. Once
the first song is complete, we will seamlessly fade to your vows so you can hear
them as they happened. Once the vows and rings are complete, the second
song will commence to complete your Ceremony and highlight some of the picture
taking and Reception atmosphere. The second song ends with the start of
your introductions. You will see and hear your entire bridal party being
introduced ending with you being introduced for the first time as Mr. and Mrs.
As you
make your way to the head table, the third song fades in and we see the highlights of the main events at your Reception. As the main events come
to an end and the open dancing becomes the main event, your last song will begin
showing you your guests dancing the night away. At the end of the last
song, you will see each other waving goodbye as you leave your Reception.
If you choose our highest package, you will also
be receiving either coverage at the bride's home for an hour before the Ceremony
or an additional location between the Ceremony and Reception. These
highlights will be put to an instrumental track of music to help things easily
flow together but to enable you to hear everything that is going on during these
memorable moments.
Packaging All of our Packages (except for the Economy)
include at least 2 DVD sets. Within each DVD set, you will receive a
Ceremony Disc and a Reception Disc. Each video
also includes custom titles, menus, and packaging - all with pictures from
your wedding - to commemorate your day.
