THE WEDDING STORY
Coverage of your wedding
day includes pre-ceremony activities, ceremony, cocktail hour/photo
shoot & reception (all traditional events plus a variety of
dancing) filmed by two video artists (us) using multiple digital
cameras with amazing low-light capacity and broadcast quality wireless
microphone to assure audio clarity. In post-production the footage
captured is distilled it to its essence in an artistic film-style
edit creating a wedding movie presented on four
interactive DVD copies with titles, credits, personalized menu,
chapter markers & custom storage cases. A consultation for creative
