What
is the format of your video?
All of our videos are delivered in DVD-R
format. Tapes can be ordered upon request. The DVD’s
can run anywhere from one hour to two hours, depending
on how long or short you want your video to be. The DVD's
will include an interactive menu with chapter selections
so that you can quickly navigate to different parts of
the video. All DVD’s will also include a one song
Highlight Video at the end which shows the best footage
captured that day. This is a great way to show your video
to friends or family that don’t want to watch the
entire video. The highlight video is also another great
video clip to put on your online website for out-of-town-friends.
What
is the style of your videos?
Our
videos combine fun and energetic camera work with cutting
edge music and editing to create a fast paced, documentary
style account of your wedding day. We know you want to
see everything in your video, but we also know that you
don’t want to be bored. That’s why we spend
up to 60 hours of editing on each video all the while
keeping an eye on pacing, mood, and tone of the video.
We intricately mix music with interesting and funny sound
bytes to constantly keep the story moving forward. You
can provide us with some of your favorite songs, or we
can choose music based on your musical tastes. It is better,
however, to let us know in advance about the music so
that we can shoot with a particular song in mind. We also
try to match the style of the video with both the personality
of the Bride and Groom and the unique energy of the celebration.
Just take a look at some of the samples and you will see
that our videos are packed with style, creativity, laughter
and tears. There will never be a second of dead time in
one of our videos. With Blink of an Eye Productions, you
truly feel like you are watching a movie of your wedding
day!
What
do we need to do before the wedding?
After the initial email or telephone discussion,
we will meet with you to talk about what type of video
you would like, review the different options we offer,
and begin to get to know you. As the wedding date approaches,
we will keep in touch as to which guests you’ll
absolutely want on film, provide us with photos if you
would like a photo montage, and clue us in on anything
else that will help us best capture your day.
How
long does it take to get our video back after the wedding?
Shooting the wedding is
only one small part of our job. A typical editing job
on one wedding can take up to 60-70 hours. You can expect
to have your wedding video back within 3 – 5 weeks.
How
intrusive will you be during our wedding?
Our
videographers try to blend into the background as much
as possible. We don’t want our videos to look staged
or phony. That’s because we let you do your thing,
and quietly capture it on tape without you noticing. You’ll
hardly remember us being there. And our light sensitive
3 CCD digital video cameras often reduce the need for
annoyingly bright lights. During the reception, however,
which sometimes may be too dark, we may use a low wattage
light on our cameras (1 inch by 1 inch).
Do
you interview guests at the reception?
As unobtrusive videographers, we generally
do not interview guests. But this can be arranged if so
desired.
Can
we have a copy of the raw footage?
Yes, the raw footage is available on either
VHS or Mini DV. It can be purchased once the final video
has been delivered.
When
is payment due for the video?
One half of the payment is due upon signing
of a contract. The second half of the payment is due upon
delivery of the video.
Can
we make changes to the final video?
Yes, we want you to be 100% satisfied with
your wedding video. Changes can be requested for up to
two weeks after the delivery of the finished video. |
