Wedding Videography: The Reception

Wedding Videography the Reception

synopsis by: Jerome J.

The second part of a wedding occasion is the fun part or the reception. This is where everybody enjoys. Here you have toasts, guest interviews, cutting of the cake, the throwing of the flowers and the dance. It is important that the videographer should be able to cover every part of the reception because these are vital events that he will compile later on for his video production.

Before anything else he needs to be early at the reception so as to be able to get coverage on the setup of the reception prior to the guests arriving to avoid any distractions and to be able to plan out his coverage. Get some close up and detailed wedding video on the flowers, tables, presents and the cake.  As the party starts, he has to make sure that he captures everybody who is having a great time.

Lighting is likewise important in this significant moment.  He has to be prepared on the correct equipment that he will be using. He has to have a dimmer abled LED light so he could be able to adjust the correct lighting and LED do not emit heat to distract the guests.

On some occasions the videographer has to take the initiative of starting an activity such as interviewing the guests. His creativity is needed here in interviewing some guests, Pose leading questions on them to answer and even asking children as well. Posing some questions such as what will they do to make each other happy?  What will they be after 10 years?

Then there is the Dancing part. It would be best if there would be two people capturing video, one video would be taking the close ups and the other for the wide footage.  This aims to be able to capture everything since there would be a lot of movement within and outside the dancing area.
