Wedding Videographer Wanted August 2012

**mrsdegreat** · 10-05-2011, 08:37 PM

We're getting married in Chingford in August 2012 and are looking for someone to do our wedding video. We're on a tight budget so were thinking of a student or someone who's just starting out & wants to build up their portfolio. We want a disc of the day so we can view & copy as many copies of the disc as we want, and would be happy for you to use the shots from the day aswell. Can anyone please help?

August is probably a bit too far away for someone to commit to a cut down rate (it normally takes around that time to build up a portfolio or decide it's not working out). It might be worth asking friends and family to consider starting up a new hobby

. Companies also offer edit only services, which may be a route to explore.

However, if you do decide to go with a videographer "proper", you'll need to make that decision now - the good get booked up far in advance! Out of interest, how low is your budget for video?

I have no doubt you'll get interest, and particularly from students. However, just under a year is the typical period for new entrants to gauge whether they'll commit long term. You face the risk of a no-show or late pull out by booking a freebie or cut down with such a long lead time. Obviously counter to this risk is the benefit that they would have had experience.

You could get lucky, but I've seen many people try their hand at this game. It's a very competitive industry! No hints on your budget then?

I offer a shoot and play, were I shoot and very basic editing and put on DVD
I also offer to edit footage shoot by yourselves.

Don't forget a video is nothing without a good audio.

Shoot & Play

Flights from San Fransisco to Chingford might work out expensive.

Sorry Adam! I think the original poster has found work elsewhere.
