Documentary Films begin and end with the logo and use the same music choices as the highlight video.
DOCUMENTARY FILM
The Documentary Film is a longer video. It includes the following elements:
- Getting ready moments (music mixed in — low volume)
- All first looks (bride and groom, bride and father, etc.)
- Private vows with original audio
- Full ceremony with original audio
- Grand entrance to reception with original audio
- All special dances with original audio (bride and groom, bride and father, groom and mother, etc.)
- All toasts with original audio
- Reception moments with original audio
It is a longer version of a highlight video (footage from the entire day with music mixed in). You do not need to cut/edit the above elements too much. Clients want to see as much original footage/audio as possible!
Please watch the examples below to get a better sense of how the Documentary Films are typically edited.
