For many years, I have used (and loved) my Arri 150 spotlight for lighting wedding receptions, but it does have some limitations. This year, I found the Kinotehnik Practilite 602 LED fresnel spotlight, and it has overcome all of the Arri’s shortcomings, while also adding features that make filming weddings easier. The Practilite 602 isn’t cheap, but I believe that its capabilities make it perfect for wedding filmmakers.

Today I'll be showing you how to mic a bride on a wedding day! Don't worry, it's not as intimidating as you may think. You're also about to see footage from us mic-ing the bride's dress at a real wedding, as well as examples of how much better her audio sounds.

📷 Filmed with this: https://kit.co/whoismatt/sony-a7sii-wedding-filmmaking Years ago, when I was getting started as a wedding videographer, I filmed a wedding that Kaley happened to be photographing. It was one of those friendships that involves adding one another on Facebook and then never speaking again, or so I thought. Last year I liked one of Kaley’s posts, and later that day her then-boyfriend Doug messaged me and expressed excitement that someone he watches on YouTube also happens to be friends with his girlfriend. 🙂
Soon I saw that Kaley’s status on Facebook had switched to engaged, and then Rachel and I received an email about possibly filming their wedding. Film the wedding of two fellow Aggies that happen to have the coolest jobs (wedding photographer and NASA flight controller!) and friendliest personalities? Sign us up!
Getting married yourself? We would love to film it, even if you don’t work for NASA. Please get in touch at http://www.filmstrong.com.

🎵 Check out Musicbed Membership: http://geni.us/musicbed
Back in April one of my favorite music licensing sites, Musicbed, announced that they would be offering a new membership option for filmmakers. As someone that uses them often for music licensing in my wedding films and YouTube videos, the possibility of having access to their highly curated catalogue of artists, WHILE saving money was very intriguing to me. 😁
I’m pleased to announce that Musicbed Membership is available now, and with it comes some very impressive pricing! They have also created a new service called syncID, which makes dealing with YouTube’s ContentID easy (never thought I would say that).

The Tascam DR-10L audio recorder feels like it was made specifically for wedding filmmakers, and in my opinion, it is the best audio recorder a wedding videographer can buy. I own four of them. 🙂
I’ve been meaning to make this review for over a year, sorry it took so long!
