Tip #1 is something I’ve come to realize - stay light weight with equipment, it’s a long day of exhausting work.
@3:15 - he recommends a 7200 lens, when you can’t get close to a couple, for instance during the ceremony.
Which will happen through out the day.
Tip #2 - Lens Choices
- He recommend 18- 35 mm - films 98% of this on this lens
- He uses 35 mm for portrait shots
-7200 lens IS version, buy used
Tip #3 - Be CRAZY fast with settings
- He’s right it is crucial
- If you’re not crazy fast, practice before you shoot a wedding, because things happen so quickly.
- He is so right, you have to be on the ball with camera settings.
Practice going by a window then going to a dark corner.
Tip # 4 Stabilize your footage
I know this already- Monopod, glide cam, gimbal
Tip #5 Tell a story
Some ways to do this are ask the bride and groom why they fell in love with them
His advice- think about progression and showing emotions, laughing or looking nervous
He suggests not showing them not fully dressed at beginning
Tip #6 - Focus on the Emotion
I agree, this is what makes an engaging, dynamic wedding edit.
Tip # 7 - Move Around
His advice was if your standing in the same spot for more that 2 minutes your wasting your time.
It makes your edit more interesting. Can’t really say this is my m.o. during the ceremony.
Maybe I’ll take his advice.
