our first SDE at DVinfo.net

our first SDE · May 31st, 2009, 06:13 AM

wow, i can't believe we pulled it off! Our team traveled a long way to shoot this destination wedding, and given the time schedule for the day, I told the bride we might be able to pull of a SDE. at 10pm, last night, we did. the crowd loved it, and I have never gotten
the type of hug from a groom I got last night. We faced a lot of issues: multiple formats, spinning beach balls, editing environment, etc. I have to give a special thanks to Glenn Elliott, who I flew down to shoot and do this with me. Without his patience, this would never have happened. Shot with EX1, A1 and HMC150. 1080, 24p Enjoy!

Very nice piece...
Beautiful establishment shots and great use of audio.
Congratulations on your first SDE.

Very nice indeed. Great mood set by the music and the interviews. Having just done an SDE myself yesterday, I can appreciate the amount of hard work (and sometimes sheer terror), of getting everything put together in a super-short period of time. To add travel to the mix is just asking for punishment. Whatever your charging for this, double it!

Really good job man! The interview audio was a great way to tie the whole thing together. It was like a mix between a love story and an SDE. well done.

Congrats Scott.

I just got home after 15hrs on the road, and wanted to reply to the posts and say thank you, and to make sure i clarify Glen did the edit in some horrid conditions. he sat in a steam tunnel/passage way/food prep area at a museum to get this done. sweat box conditions. I just want to make sure he knows when he has a bout of ADD and reads this, he knows how much his talent was appreciated for making this happen. It was his first time editing under the gun.
