 Videography as An Art  Choosing the Right Videographer  The Interview  Videography with Style

The Interview

When visiting videographers, you should already have a list of questions written down. Bring a notepad with you to write down each videographer’s answers and compare. Besides the usual price questions, there are many other key questions. Here are a few to consider:

Videographer. Is the videographer you’re interviewing the one who’s actually shooting the wedding? Is the videographer working by himself/herself, or are there others involved?

Style. What is the videographer’s video style and/or technique for weddings? Can he/she add special effects, background music or anecdotes from friends and family?

Samples. Always, always ask to see video samples. Be sure to watch the video the whole way through to see exactly how yours will look. You might want to ask for a list of references as well.

Location. Is the videographer familiar with the location of your ceremony and reception? If not, you might want to visit the places together before the big day to figure out angles, lighting, etc.

Overtime. How long does the videographer plan on staying? Is the videographer available to stay longer? If so, how much will be charged?

Added Costs. Will the videographer travel out of town to do the wedding? If so, will he/she charge for extra mileage? Will there be any additional costs related to editing, production, etc. Also, how much will be charged for additional copies?

Cameras. How many cameras will the videographer have at the site? Will he/she just use one, or will they set up numerous cameras around the vicinity to get different angles?

Technology. What type of technology does the videographer use for shooting and editing? Will he use VHS or digital equipment? Can he or she put your special video on a DVD?

Timing. How long will it take the videographer to do all the editing? How long before you can have a final copy to share with everyone?
