That is for sure a terrific video. I loved it.

Patrick, yep! Michael mentioned that it's only the two of you who does everything from shooting until editing the SDE and was a bit surprised upon hearing that and that's why we admire your work. ^_^ A lot of experience is the result of your outputs. We're just trying to be different that's why we thought of this workflow. :D

Noa, yep, we're a crew of 5 per wedding. And mostly we just do things on the spot but sometimes we do plan ahead especially if Alvin wants to achieve something he's never done before like this one. :D
And on our part, we package the SDE together with our full day coverage. That way, it really helps on the marketing side.

Travis, you'll never know until you try it! Hahaha! Just plan ahead, i bet your clients will really appreciate it even though it's a simple one since i bet nobody is doing it yet in your place. ^_^

Chris, uber thanks!!! :D

Well, it's not that I haven't done one. I did one 2 years ago because the couple had a 2-hour break between their ceremony and reception. It's just that here where I live the ceremony ends and then you basically go right into the reception like 10-15 minutes later. So there just isn't time really.

If I had 5 people we could maybe make something work, but it's just me and an assistant, and my assistant isn't always the same individual.

What all did he do differently this time?

Michael Y Wong · May 27th, 2008, 11:15 PM

Pretty Crazy stuffs Raf as always. You guys are glidecamming low-mode, on steroids, the same would apply with Alvin's editing. It is always interesting to see how your team is always experimenting with the post side of things, this SDE is definately no exception.

With your curent SDE workflow as well as SDE format pretty much perfectly worked out, the only thing I would suggest would be to change the overall format of the SDE a bit.

Raphael - How do the Mac Book Pros go for battery life throughout the day? I'm guessing you would plug in to power when you can but I'd be interested to know your experiences.

Raphael Jamil Pranga · May 28th, 2008, 07:01 PM

Hi Mat! Yep, we do plug it in in all three parts of the wedding. We usually setup near sockets to leave us battery life during traveling (preps to church and church to reception) since sometimes capturing/editing continues while on the road especially if the places are far apart.

A big problem would be a garden/beach wedding without backup generators and a blackout/brownout would happen and it would last for about 2 hours or so and the ceremony would be at night. When that happens, i guess all we can do is pray. :)
