This is exactly what I’ve been wanting to see since I lost my second shooter the next several weddings will be just me and I love seeing the real life scenarios play out! Great job guys!
I am a big fan of your BTS cause I learn more than watching tutorial videos. BTS are real world examples of what's going on during the wedding and the thought process of the film maker, the challenges they face from lighting conditions to cluttered rooms, their camera movements, when to switch from gimbal to handheld. I love these guys
Great video!!! I mm retired and have started to film conferences, seminars and meetings using a 4 camera setup as a solo. Learned the craft by doing numerous of sessions and learned from my misstakes and now feel confident in what I am doing. Besides learning some valuable tricks ( splitting the signal from the mixer into my Zoom H6 ) I was deeply taken by the fact that I am doing the things more or less the same as you proving I am on the right track. I also recognize the feeling that after a succsessful shoot you most remember the misstakes, but still is proud of mission accomplished. Many thanks for the video that was very important and valuable for me. /Retired DP manager loving filmmaking
Thanks for taking us through the day and for sharing your approach and explaining your set up and thought process. Very helpful info, please do more bts videos like this, thank you 🙏🏼
Really gives me relaxed feeling seen you taking it relaxed and not stressing out!! Soon my first bigger wedding this summer.. solo working. Photos and video of the day.. gopt to plan it well
solo shooting today at a wedding! don't normally solo, but I have a hurt shoulder so I'm trying to take it easy as much as I can! thanks for helping me
Great video! I filmed my sons wedding using a BMPCC 6K and a DJI RS2. Set it to raw and auto white balance and used a focus wheel. The RS2 does the flip down handle thing as well. Nice about BMPCC is that I use DR for post and can adjust any white balance.
This is going to be in a list of a few of the most valuable videos to me for this year as I'm shooting a friends wedding (lockdown depending) this year. I'm mainly a photog for music events, but have background in video and editing from previous work ten years ago and still keep warm with the technologies, but shooting and directing is something I've not done since college because Event Photography feels very natural for me. So yea, going to binge your videos and if you have any books or other content I should take on board, please do let me know.
Love hearing that! Let us know if there is anything you're specifically wondering about! We've got a TON of content on this channel and also do a weekly live film review on thursdays (tonight!) 9pm eastern. We've also got many more BTS videos in the works with wedding season starting up. Hope to see you around more ! - Bobby
We plan on it now that our wedding season is kicking off again. We have a California wedding planned with Bobby as well as a Livestream BTS planned with Jason. Both in May. -Jared
I feel you... I did a couple of solo video shooting and the tripod with 2 cameras on it was my best friend. It did a wide and a zoom, then i just managed the gimbal.
I think the thing I dislike is that I usually don't have the best angle for these shots. Gimbal is the play but I don't really like it even when I'm doing photo. Some people do it well though! -Jared
Plus, with the how big that fractal ring is, you can make the bride feel inferior about the size of her engagement ring... 🤣 Great video, man - super-informative and fun!

Another great BTS and I was so happy to see you using the Fuji X system (like me) and especially with the 23mm which I love. Thank you for the time and work you guys put in.
I was panicking, going through all the other wedding filmmaking channels. Everyone with Canon 1DX MK3, Sony FX3...and I'm starting out with Fuji XS10. Finally someone with a Fuji filming weddings, makes me feel less like a pleasant.
We just did an interview with a really great Filmmaker name Ryan Brown from forged in the north. He shoots Fuji. We also interviewed Victor Ha on the podcast who works for Fuji. - Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool thank you! This cheered me up! I bought the X-S10 a few months ago, if I knew I would have gone for the XT3. Now it's done, I'll just grab a couple lenses and wait on the xt5
@@WeddingFilmSchool What made you switch to Fuji, if I may ask? Was it the context, you needed to sold gear due to c19, or its about passion and film style?
I might be the minority here but I’ve shot nothing but solo wedding videos and until today, have never watched someone else’s solo wedding shooting process. This is a great representation. I was super relieved to see my years of trial and error landed me somewhere in the ballpark of what to do and what not to do! That being said, QUESTION: A video specifically on wedding video audio; sound boards, working with DJs for audio, quarter inch out, line mics, splitting, etc. Would be super helpful if you guys haven’t done a video on that already! I feel like perfecting audio is the final frontier for wedding videographers and needs major recognition!!
What with this strange "wobble" effect occuring on the background from 23:35 on ? Seems to me it could come from digital stabilization. Or anyone with a more accurate (and exact) idea ?
@Wedding Film School clever move ! And a good warning about the use of those post-production tools. I noticed "cloning" of some image edges when using a similar function for sequences filmed aboard cars... taking me to, ultimately, not using this function at all and purposely converting the sequence into a bumpy style of ride. How goofy ! I can't wait to test the gyroscopic solution Sony is now proposing for their last cameras. A DP friend of mine had a go at it and said it to be just amazing. Which is just pure logic. When digital post-prod functions are only applied mathematics, with all the glitches we can imagine ! Thank you for this long tutorial, packed with many good things and reminders to consider and keep in mind. PS : this is probably the ugliest light set and interior architecture I've seen in/for a church... and you've made the best possible use of it !
Such a useful video, thanks! Just wondering, I’ve had some real issues with knowing which port on the soundboard to plug my pcm recorder into. Is there a standard port that you try to plug into?
Depends on what you want to make! We do it both ways depending on the edit. I can tell the difference between 24 and 60 and I don’t think it’s that hard to switch so I often switch for speeches and anything I KNOW I want normal speed. That’s being said, many many wedding filmmakers shoot 60 ALL DAY, and that’s ok too. 60 takes more storage and battery, so that’s one thing to keep in mind. Def personal preference here for the most part though. - Jay
Funny you should ask! We tested that theory in another video with the tamron 35-150 and are currently doing a similar video with the 28-75. I still think I'm mainly on a 50mm though
I like a low wide shot personally. it means the photographer is not going to get tripods in their close-ups. It also means I’m going to get a lot of ceiling which in this case looked incredible. I don’t like to show a lot of floor because it’s pretty boring in most cases
I have some doubts about stabilization. On thumbnail it was very bad and I don't think that you will fix it in post. IBIS will help but rock stability is a key. Ps. Thanks for video.
We'll need to shoot a video with the rig. The gimbal goes on a tripod to double as the wide shot. It's essentially a zyhiun crane quick adapter attached to a Manfrotto quick plate. This means I can pull off my wide shot to get gimbal work in a single second.
If A gimbal camera isn’t being used I'd usually just have it set up on the ground until I’m ready to move to a new position. I wouldn’t want to put it back in a bag. Back means slower access and potentially thrown off balance on the gimbal. Not sure if that answers your question
Is there a reason you didn't light the ceremony? I know it's not common, but it was a dimly lit room and you had the lights to do so. Just curious because I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this for hotel night shoots.
Jared may pop in here and share his thoughts as he was the one shooting this but in my opinion, this wasn't a dimly lit ceremony. I mean sure it was darker than most but it wasn't too low of light on the parts that mattered. Everything on the stage had ample lighting, I mean definitely a bit different of a look but certainly still good looking. Maybe the aisle could have used a bit of fill light but that's hard to do depending on the setup of the ceremony and not blasting guests with a light. Plus, most of the important stuff is happening on stage. I've lit a ceremony probably 3 or less times in 16 years because they were essentially candlelit and I would not be able to use any of the footage without some lights. - Bobby
@@WeddingFilmSchool Thanks for the reply! Maybe it just looked dark on the BTS camera - though Jared says it is at 24:40. But the finished film did come out great. I'm filming a wedding in a hotel at night in a few days, and concerned about the house lighting for the ceremony. Hypothetically, if you had unflattering warm/yellowish overhead house lighting, would you want to add your own key lights? Or would you just roll with the venue's lighting?
If it's just a matter of light temperature then that can be accounted for in your white balance by utilizing kelvin temps and if your camera has it, color shift. If it's too dark or the lights are super direct and introduce terrible shadows then I would cross two lights on the front outside of the crowd hitting only the center of the stage and just enough to reduce the shadows or bring the skin exposure to the right level just on the bride and groom and officiant. But you'll need some decent lights, something like the aputure 60x, practilite 602, things like that that can throw really far so that you remain out of the way of the guests, and you'll want to match the color temperature of your lights to the venue lights.
Yeah i do the same man! I end up beat after a wed. I usually have the zyen crane with the video transmitter so i can change angles and camera settings from my phone and have another camera in a tripod and shooting stills. I am about to give that up and get some help though.
@@ronflores7 nice for you to have some help, as of me I have no choice, Id rather shoot it my self than to have someone who does not know what they are doing and will only do it for the money, that would end up me having not to use any of the shots.. I have three cameras, one as my main video camera which is FE the a6500 is mounted on the gimbal, and another FE camera as my stills only.. I just select my shots, I only offer wedding highlights so I do not need to film the whole event.. The only time I use two video cameras at the same time is If I want to angles.. but mostly I have my main on a monopod so that I can shoot stills.. as for gimbal I only select shots with it..
Sorry, i do not have help but i am looking. Agree with you 100%. Its not worth getting help if they are not willing to learn doing it because they like it
It depends on the shot. If I need it to have a little bit of tilt then I keep it on. The batteries are great on the Weebil S. Usually I turn it off for the ceremony because I can just lock it off and have it be a straightforward shot. -Jared
What going lightweight means in different cultures varies vastly! I fit 2 cameras, 3 lenses, sound gear, lights and stands(if needed), small tripod in a Lowepro 400 backpack...and I think it's almost too much gear!
Thank u for some Fuji System wedding BTS always wanted to find out how they fare in this kind of set-up...Would have loved to hear just a brief take on the experience though if u experienced any hick-ups overheating or anything like that?
They are great cameras! We have def found they CAN overheat when you shoot 4K60 with IBIS and AF on but we have found if you just monitor it (it has a warning icon) and turn off the IBIS and AF when your not using it it’s very manageable. I personally have never had one overheat btw. - Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool Thanks for the feedback man ....I love Fuji cams and I guess It would be nice upgrade to the Xt4 as am still using my XT2 for stills but enjoying it in the meantime as I grow too in the industry...Thank u
The new firmware essentially prevents them from overheating to the point of stopping the recording. You may get the indicator around 15 to 20 minutes of non-stop recording but it hasn’t been a problem for me. -Jared
Do you use IBIS when on the Weebill-S? I always find it is always a comprise between getting rid of micro-jitters but a downside of having the occasional flick of the X-T4's IBIS trying to catch up with camera movement.
Just a quick question. In the beginning when shooting the detail shots of the dress, jewellery are you using the ibis? I have the 18-55 ois and that combo it's just making everything really weird and jerky but I guess it would be less of a problem if i zoom in. Love you wedding videos... Best TV ever!
I'll let Jared reply here hopefully but for me I do have ibis on with my handheld setup. I shoot sony however and Jared is on the fuji film XT series but yah. Really comes down to personal preference I'd say though, there's no wrong or right just see which accomplishes the look you prefer! -Bobby
OK Newbie question here, but... where is the PHOTOGRAPHER from the beginning ? (i'm only at the 11;20 in but wondering where/when photographer shows up!)
I need to know what your holdfast setup is, because I can't understand how you can use a hold fast with a tripod plate. I have a shoulder strap I use but holdfast would be better.
Jared will have to chime in to confirm but I think it's this thing that you need to be able to keep a plate on and still use the holdfast system! bhpho.to/3h5LpSQ - Bobby

This was awesome! One quick question. You're using 3 cameras but where does your gimbal go when you're shooting hand held?
We'll need to shoot a video with the rig. The gimbal goes on a tripod to double as the wide shot. It's essentially a zyhiun crane quick adapter attached to a Manfrotto quick plate. This means I can pull off my wide shot to get gimbal work in a single second.

I've lit a ceremony probably 3 or less times in 16 years because they were essentially candlelit and I would not be able to use any of the footage without some lights. - Bobby
@@WeddingFilmSchool Thanks for the reply! Maybe it just looked dark on the BTS camera - though Jared says it is at 24:40. But the finished film did come out great.
I'm filming a wedding in a hotel at night in a few days, and concerned about the house lighting for the ceremony. Hypothetically, if you had unflattering warm/yellowish overhead house lighting, would you want to add your own key lights? Or would you just roll with the venue's lighting?
If it's just a matter of light temperature then that can be accounted for in your white balance by utilizing kelvin temps and if your camera has it, color shift. If it's too dark or the lights are super direct and introduce terrible shadows then I would cross two lights on the front outside of the crowd hitting only the center of the stage and just enough to reduce the shadows or bring the skin exposure to the right level just on the bride and groom and officiant. But you'll need some decent lights, something like the aputure 60x, practilite 602, things like that that can throw really far so that you remain out of the way of the guests, and you'll want to match the color temperature of your lights to the venue lights.
@@WeddingFilmSchool Got it, thank you so much for your insight!
Wow it's awesome I appreciate it please I need a good teacher to be like you guys please help me out please
Love from India (Assam )❤
Welcome to my game.. ^_^ solo shooter here both stills and video at the same time..
That's crazy
Yeah i do the same man! I end up beat after a wed. I usually have the zyen crane with the video transmitter so i can change angles and camera settings from my phone and have another camera in a tripod and shooting stills. I am about to give that up and get some help though.
@@ronflores7 nice for you to have some help, as of me I have no choice, Id rather shoot it my self than to have someone who does not know what they are doing and will only do it for the money, that would end up me having not to use any of the shots.. I have three cameras, one as my main video camera which is FE the a6500 is mounted on the gimbal, and another FE camera as my stills only.. I just select my shots, I only offer wedding highlights so I do not need to film the whole event.. The only time I use two video cameras at the same time is If I want to angles.. but mostly I have my main on a monopod so that I can shoot stills.. as for gimbal I only select shots with it..
@@WeddingFilmSchool But I am not crazy enough to do SDE solo..
Sorry, i do not have help but i am looking. Agree with you 100%. Its not worth getting help if they are not willing to learn doing it because they like it
Do you keep the gimbal on when it's on the tripod? Great content by the way!
It depends on the shot. If I need it to have a little bit of tilt then I keep it on. The batteries are great on the Weebil S. Usually I turn it off for the ceremony because I can just lock it off and have it be a straightforward shot. -Jared
@@WeddingFilmSchool awesome thanks!
What going lightweight means in different cultures varies vastly! I fit 2 cameras, 3 lenses, sound gear, lights and stands(if needed), small tripod in a Lowepro 400 backpack...and I think it's almost too much gear!
It’s relative to our normal rig, which is twice as big.- Jay
Nice video! What bag is it you use on the holdfast plus how to do you attach it. Love the set up. Thanks
Jared mentions the bag when he talks about the holdfast and his setup, can't remember exact timing - Bobby
@@WeddingFilmSchool thanks I can’t get the name sounds like owner?
It’s the ONA Bowery Bag -Jared
Thank you so much
Would you mind share your Fujifilm XT4 setting for video shoots? Including file output, shutter, iso, focus, etc. Thank youuuu!
Shutter, iso, and focus will change per shot but we were shooting 4K 60p for a majority of the day h264 .mov files. PROvia Film simulation. -Jared
19:10 i am glad that the gimbal was not on concrete ;D
Totally agree. Gimbal land mines aren’t ideal on hard surfaces
Thank u for some Fuji System wedding BTS always wanted to find out how they fare in this kind of set-up...Would have loved to hear just a brief take on the experience though if u experienced any hick-ups overheating or anything like that?
They are great cameras! We have def found they CAN overheat when you shoot 4K60 with IBIS and AF on but we have found if you just monitor it (it has a warning icon) and turn off the IBIS and AF when your not using it it’s very manageable. I personally have never had one overheat btw. - Jay
@@WeddingFilmSchool Thanks for the feedback man ....I love Fuji cams and I guess It would be nice upgrade to the Xt4 as am still using my XT2 for stills but enjoying it in the meantime as I grow too in the industry...Thank u
The new firmware essentially prevents them from overheating to the point of stopping the recording. You may get the indicator around 15 to 20 minutes of non-stop recording but it hasn’t been a problem for me. -Jared
20:03
Were u using continous af for these gimbal clips? :)
Continuous with face detection! -jared
Do you use IBIS when on the Weebill-S? I always find it is always a comprise between getting rid of micro-jitters but a downside of having the occasional flick of the X-T4's IBIS trying to catch up with camera movement.
I do, haven’t had that much issues with it yet. -Jared
Hi! Are you using a 23mm f/2, 23mm f/1.4 ?
Hi! We use the f1.4. Great lens. -Jared
Can u tell me you settings? shoot in 4k 60fps oder 1080 120fps? Or is there a Video of u tzalking about that?
I believe this was all 4K60. I don’t really see a lot of need for 120fps personally. -Jared
Bravo !!!!
THanks a lot :)
S/o to hand held shooting !
What camera picture profile do you use? STD, NAT, log, Cine D, etc.?
bravo
Just a quick question. In the beginning when shooting the detail shots of the dress, jewellery are you using the ibis? I have the 18-55 ois and that combo it's just making everything really weird and jerky but I guess it would be less of a problem if i zoom in. Love you wedding videos... Best TV ever!
I'll let Jared reply here hopefully but for me I do have ibis on with my handheld setup. I shoot sony however and Jared is on the fuji film XT series but yah. Really comes down to personal preference I'd say though, there's no wrong or right just see which accomplishes the look you prefer! -Bobby
@@WeddingFilmSchool Hey Bobby! Thx for the feedback bro! Yeah let Jared know 🤗 I’m curious which way I should go - ibis or no ibis…
OK Newbie question here, but... where is the PHOTOGRAPHER from the beginning ? (i'm only at the 11;20 in but wondering where/when photographer shows up!)
She’s on our staff… so she stayed kinda low key all day.
I cringed at the Chinese food haha I usually just wait til dinner at the reception and eat there. Great BTS!
Caleb, our BTS shooter got some and I was sucked into ordering when I saw his lol -Jared
Did the photographer run into the gimbal?! XD
Yes smh
Thanks 🏆
No prob!
I need to know what your holdfast setup is, because I can't understand how you can use a hold fast with a tripod plate. I have a shoulder strap I use but holdfast would be better.
Jared will have to chime in to confirm but I think it's this thing that you need to be able to keep a plate on and still use the holdfast system! bhpho.to/3h5LpSQ - Bobby
That’s the one. I actually just ordered a bunch online that are much cheaper. Going to do a whole video on my set up -Jared
