Amber ReelWedding films

Service

Two filmmakers, both preparations, and a film with room to breathe

With two of us there is someone with each of you in the morning, three or four angles on the ceremony, and a feature film that can hold the small moments a highlights cut has to leave out.

The second filmmaker changes what is possible. One of us can be with the bride or one partner getting ready while the other is with the other side across town. During the ceremony there are cameras at the front, the back and the side, so a reaction shot is never missed because we were covering the wide. In the evening one camera stays on the dancing while the other finds the people talking on the terrace.

The feature runs 15 to 25 minutes and is built like a short documentary: it has chapters, it lets the speeches run where they are good, and it slows down. It comes with the highlights film, the full ceremony and speeches, and a 45 to 60 second teaser delivered within seven days of the wedding so you have something to share while the main films are edited.

Twelve hours covers almost any single-day wedding. For Asian weddings and other celebrations spread over several days, we add days from £895 each and keep the same crew throughout.

FAQ

Questions about two-filmmaker feature film

Who is the second filmmaker?

Someone we have shot with before, briefed on your day in advance and working to our shot plan. Imran edits every film, so the look is consistent whoever held the second camera.

How long does the feature take to deliver?

The teaser is with you within seven days. The highlights follow within 6 to 8 weeks and the feature and documentary edits within 10 to 12 weeks, with the dates written into your confirmation.

Can we have two filmmakers on a shorter day?

Yes. A second filmmaker is a £450 add-on to either of the other packages and covers the same hours as the first.
