"The Butterfly Effect" Wedding Trailer

"The Butterfly Effect" Wedding Trailer · June 21st, 2010, 11:46 AM

Hi guys. This video is one of our most ambitious and daring experiments to date (thank God the bride is still in -positive- shock after watching it). This time we tried to create a trailer using different storytelling techniques than we're used to. Allow me to say a couple of things about it in case you give some of your precious time to watch it.

This wedding took place in an amazing summer resort during 4-6 June. First day it was the barbeque and bachelor party, and the weather was amazing. The next day though (the wedding day), one hour before the wedding, a huge cloud covered half the country (for real) and created a cataclysmic event, changing every plan that had been carefully crafted by the couple. Giorgos & Erato, one of the most amazing B&G we ever had, were deeply disappointed about things going wrong and started thinking things like "why this happened today to us". While at the reception, and during shooting we came up with the idea "what if we take advantage of all these things in order to tell a different kind of story"? So, the next day (also amazing sunny weather), we went for some extra shooting to complete a script we created the previous night.

And so, we created the "Butterfly Effect"...
