When filming a wedding or civil partnership the actual day of filming is only one part of the process. The editing process can mean the difference between a good film and an exceptional film. We are always really careful when editing our weddings and civil partnerships to make sure that we put in the same level of service on all films - we want to highlight the fine details and showcase the little things that really make a day what it is - something special.
During what we call "The Summer Run" we can sometimes film up to four weddings over a single weekend period (Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday), this obviously results in a lot of projects which require editing together. We are always mindful of the fact our clients want to see their movies (and trust us, we're pleased when folks are itching to see it) however we are also very careful we don't rush through projects in order to have things complete just a touch quicker.
Usually, editing a movie takes up to one week to construct. This includes all the fancy little details such as colour correction, audio balancing and then the editing itself. Once the movie has been edited together we then post our a preview DVD of the film, so our clients can watch the cut of the movie and let us know their thoughts. Then when we have heard their feedback, if necessary we make any changes and then we produce the final movie with all the bells and whistles.
So in summary, we want to extend a big "thank you" to our clients for being patient while we work our way through our projects. You can join us over on facebook where we update the status of our projects so you can keep up to date with what's going on, or if you want to really get the inside scoop you can e-mail us directly at any time to check the status of your movie!
If you have any questions at all about weddings, civil partnerships or anything to do with videography / cinematography then please get in touch, we'd love to hear from you!
