So I live in the midwest but am going to go out to colorado next week to shoot my photog. teachers friends wedding. My teacher was hired to shoot pictures and he invited me to come and take care of video. I am really excited to do this because the setting is going to be really beautiful, but Im a little nervous as to how I am going to make it.
I have been watching alot of wedding videos and am starting to pick up on some dos and donts (dos: depth of field, moving shots, glidecam shots, close-ups, soft lighting, Donts: bad audio, shaky footage, dark footy, over/underexposed)
But I am still looking for some help
My equipment that i will take will be:
7d
t2i
rode videomic
softbox lighting (for interviews)
Glidecam
redrock shoulder rig w/ counterweights
701 head w/ 055xprob legs
Headphones for monitoring
tokina 11-16
tamron 17-50
canon 70-200 f/2.8
and misc. batteries and cards
(and im sure there are things that im forgetting)
but with what I've got, does anyone have any suggestions for me?
I am really looking for help on what I should fill up on footage wise before the wedding and also what I should do with the bride and groom before the wedding. and how I should shoot the main wedding (run one cam. on tripod stationary while using glidecam or shoulder rig with the other?)
I'm sorry this is so long but I just need to gain some confidence in what i want to shoot before I try and do it. Thanks for the help +k
