Things to consider to create your perfect Asian wedding videography

Asian weddings are unique and special events. Not only is it a big day for the bride and groom, it also is an extremely special day for both families and close friends. There are so many elements to an Asian wedding that it is important to choose a videographer, who specialises in and has thorough understanding of Asian wedding videography. 

When organising your D-day, here are some of the things to consider, so that your Indian wedding videography produces the results that you envisaged. 

Weather

Most Asian brides will not even consider weather. However, rainfall, snow, sleet and mist can play havoc with your special day. Since you can’t control the weather, it is important to get an experienced wedding videographer, who has experience in filming weddings in different weather conditions. In fact, a good videographer should and would know exactly what to do when weather plays spoilsport. 

Lighting

Asian weddings are held at different hours of the day and night depending on the auspicious time. The natural light outside can impact the quality of your wedding video. And, at the venue, the lighting inside can have a profound effect, as well. Natural and artificial light should be taken into consideration for Asian weddings. Remember, Asian weddings, specially Indian weddings, have a lot of lighting at the wedding venue. So, your videographer should be able to capture every moment with clarity and precision.

The Guests

You invite family and friends to share and witness your special day, and be part of the joy and celebrations. However, sometimes guests can mar your wedding videography without even realising it. These well-intentioned guests can end up coming in the way of the shots, try and get the best angles using their digital cameras and smartphones or use flash photography to ruin a perfect wedding video. While it is natural for guests to get excited about your wedding and want to do their bit to immortalise your special day, it is best to request them at the time of sending the invites to not obstruct the videographer, who has been hired for the wedding. 

The Venue Décor

Indian weddings start from the outside and head indoors. So, a big part of Indian wedding cinematography is to take into consideration both locations. The ambient lighting indoor and outdoor can affect the quality and clarity of the wedding video, but so can the venue’s décor and colours. In a perfect world, a neutral coloured wedding venue would be the answer. However, that is not the case. It is best to get the videographer to tag along with you to check the venue before your big day and decide on how the background décor and colours can be managed and tackled to create the perfect wedding video. 

The Music

During the video editing process, wedding videographers and cinematographers often include background scores to certain parts of the wedding video. If the music is not in in-sync with the images, it can ruin a perfectly good shot. Hence, it is crucial the videographer has in-depth knowledge and understanding of music that can make each shot special. 

Asian weddings are grand and glitzy. There are so many different elements that each one can have an impact on the quality and clarity of the wedding video. Hiring a videographer that specialises in Asian weddings is the best way to create the perfect wedding video.
