This weekend I am filming a wedding. I've been doing a lot of research on it. The first Wedding movie I actually did was a re-dub of my Aunt's wedding from VHS to DVD. Anyways, the rehearsal is Thursday and I still need some tips on what to do to make it great. Especially since its my first job outside of my AMV projects and Church series I do at the same church the wedding is at. Here's what I need to know:
How much do I charge for my services especially where it's my first time most people say no more than $50-$100
What are some good camera angles we have a balcony but the stairs we have that lead up to it is kinda dangerous I run up and down those stairs every Sunday to zoom in and out on Pastor.
Instead of a tripod should I use a roller cart That way as they leave the building I can follow them out or maybe add wheels to the tripod.
We have a sound system at the church should I be ready to record a dual audio.
We have one wireless and one lapel who should get what?
The camera I will be using is a Panasonic Tm90k with a polaroid pan head that can move up and down and left and right and has an auto pan. no zooming.
Also I need to know more about Question 1 by at least Wednesday.
Here are some Additional Details about this:
first off I talked to her last night and yes she knows its my first one. So yes she knows I'm an amateur.
Second of all, I am doing the rehearsals with them on Thursday night at the church so her family will see how I'm doing and see the quality on the TV screen I have in the back room so after that if they still want me okay.
Also, I never like to be paid until I'm done making the DVDs and done with my work that way if somethings wrong then I don't get in trouble.
Third I have been praised on how well of a job I did with the church series. I never have any problems.
and I have been aware of the risks.
Please give me some tips thank you have a good day
