Started watching this in an empty reception room while waiting for first dance. Looked up at like 15 minutes in to realise there was 200 guests seated all around me. Glad I snapped back to reality before the first dance started!
Kraig, you may or may not be a genius, but to my simple mind you're the videography king! I was asked to film my sister in laws wedding 2 weekends ago without any real experience other than owning a semi decent dslr. Your channel helped me immensely before the day, and is helping me so much more now in the editing phase. Thanks a bunch for your hard work in these videos. Oh, and you also have a new subscriber to your blog channel. Peace!
I shoot wedding movies for 2 years and now the thing are getting serious , thanks your channel is helping me a lot! don't stop doing it man, greetings from Brazil.
Thank you so much for doing this Kraig. Watched all the BTS and learned a lot. Don't know how you pulled off that entire wedding by yourself; never saw so many gear changes. Thank you again. Priceless!
Hey brother . you are really doing amzing job by sharing how you work and your gears reviews and all. There are very few people in the world who shares how they work. dude on a serious note all your materials helped me to bud from scratch .Trust me i learned many things. waiting for more behind of scene and how you edit and all.love you brother.The journey should go on.
I found really awesome that you share all the process like you do. I really like how you critic yourself and also I like when you explain why you made that choice.
Kraig, thx for this look inside your awesome work. It is so helpful, to see, that you have the same problems while the shooting and the edit. Your self-criticism about your work makes you likeable. I wish you a lot of top jobs.
I'm very impressed with your shooting and editing techniques. I don't do wedding videos but can absolutely appreciate the amount of work and skill you put into them. Thanks for sharing your tips and techniques. I learned a lot that I can apply to my video productions. BTW - your videos have a great look!
Loved it! Would personally like a little insight into how you got so much coverage during ceremony alone and with only two cameras. Maybe that's in BTS. Thanks Kraig!
The little pan move you talked about cutting at "10:01" was actually one of my favorite parts of your film. To me it looked like you did it intentionally for a dramatic effect or something. Another thing for me to copy from you 😎 Keep the good stuff coming!
Love what you're doing with these BTS. Super informative! Keep pumping out videos! What would make these "Inside the Edit" videos better would be if you dig even deeper and go into song choice and how your decision making on arranging the shots.
I have found that using both the camera audio and the zoom audio really does make a more natural audio....after 30mins. Glad to see you did the same....just wish i saw this before i spent that much time on the audio -_-.
Dude, can we be like friends? I am not sure how I didn't find you earlier??? Anyway, great stuff and inspiring. Also kudos on shooting the wedding by yourself! Really great stuff.
These videos are excellent Kraig! I wonder though, isn't it weird for the couples to see you be very picky and a bit negative about some of the pieces from a product you created for them? I mean, this content is very valuable to us so don't stop making them. :) It's just something I was wondering about. Thanks for this channel!
I feel like this isn't really a how to edit a wedding film, and it's more just you rewatching and critiquing your own. Nothing against it, i just came looking for some specific advice (I don't really know what i'm looking for i'm just stuck on editing a wedding)
@@JuanAntoniovlog Things like this are why i retired from weddings haha not my style. hated editing them. Just need lots of good sound bites from speeches and lots of shots. good luck
Even though this vid is a couple years old still super helpful Kraig! Ive shot 8 weddings now and of course always trying to improve and this vid helps heaps man ❤️🙌 Thanks heaps legend!
Very nice edit. It's clean and has good thought put into it. I like how you worked with the audio and music. I did notice the top and bottom pixel error but its not big deal. Also good choice of text font typeface for this style of wedding.
Just finished watching all of your videos. You worked your ass off the entire day and I liked many of your ideas. Surprised you didn't use a glide cam. Also, watching you struggle with the focus, exposure, color and really a lot of focus problems, I'd suggest you trade up to at least the Canon 5d4. So much of your talent was wasted due to the focus problems especially the follow focus problems that don't occur with Canon. The sound issues are almost always there and working alone is a pain in the but - not being able to monitor the levels - eeech! Thank you for putting yourself out there. It's crazy brave!
They're pretty good so far, but if you could make the videos a bit shorter and maybe like 15-16 mins long for those with short attention span. -Also pls if you can help it, stop swallowing saliva every 2 secs, the sound is not at all pleasing when listening with headphones. Other than that, Keep up the good work 👍🏾
Love this! You talked about mistakes, I am curious about the specifics of the mistakes and what you wish you had done different or will make sure to do different for next time. Thanks for all the work you do for us. ~Paul
I have a 5D mkiii and a 70D for handheld stuff on a flycam 3000. Thinking a bout getting a third camera. 4K? Panasonic G7 or DJI Osmo? Great job on the edit video. Just started offering a videography package and these are super helpful.
Great wrap-up to your BTS series about this wedding. I believe in Part 1 you said you also provided a Family Edit. Do you have an example of one of those?
Did a wedding by myself a few days ago (on my a7s2) and edited in FCPX with Color Finale. Going through this video I recognise much of your pain - especially with audio. I must have spent as much time on the audio as the visuals. One thing that I blew (literally) was the many brilliant whites that people were wearing. It didn't matter too much because I did the video for free, but I don't want to make the same mistake again. So, do you expose for the whitest thing in the room (the bride's dress) or do you find some other way? Presumably you used Cine4 or Cine2 and not S-Log?
Hey Kraig, I love the videos and all the work you have done. As an audio engineer, I'm curious as to the source of your audio songs that you use for your wedding videos. Thanks
Hi, i'm from Mexico (sorry for my bad english) and me and my wife work together on weddings too, thanks a lot for this channel, i just subscribed and i want to ask you where do you get that kind of songs (the song 4 in your timeline), Great work and thanks again
Thanks for the great video as always. I am wondering when do you feel the need to change fps to 120 for slo-mo in edit? I notice in here that you mention the water in the background, is there any other scene that you think work really well with slo-mo?
how do you do those crossfade audio dots to help fade them in?? I've always wondered how to do it but never seen someone use it before. You spoke about it in 13:18 please would help my work flow big time!! Ive watched alot of your videos really love the content!! Keep it up!!
Hello Kraig. Love your wedding videos and tutorials! I have no experience working with 4K before (regarding wedding videography) . Purchased sony a6300, did some research, but would love to hear from you how do you work around having that many video clips(128GB or twice more) in 4K or XAVC S HD (big files)? Do you downscale all your clips in Pavtube Video Converter or other converter to avoid clip lag (other problems) before importing into Adobe Premiere/ Final Cut or you do it in Premiere/FC? What projects settings you think works best? and which settings best to export final piece? To much to ask for tutorial. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
Craig I too have problems sometimes getting audio from less than ideal "providers" cough cough, dj's... That is why I have a g3 reciever (as most audio techs still use it), so as long as I have the frequency I can pick up the mics and be in control. Here I noticed the mic wasn't wireless. Couldn't you have asked the dj just to run a y-splitter from the end of the xlr cable 1/2 to your system and 1/2 to his mixing board? Wouldn't degrade his quality, or lack thereof. also consider getting izotope rx5 or even using audition to process your audio. the fcpx stuff is less than ideal. and izotope can do some pretty crazy things with audio esp dereverb plugin
Kraig do u use ND filters to keep ur shutter speed or no? on a sunny bright day I'm shooting at least at 800 or 1600 with a 1.8f i get some choppiness what would you recommend? +Wedding Film Shool
How do you manage to shoot Bride side and Groom by yourself, I tried that couple times and is just a killer running for one side to another, Love your work.
Hey Kraig! Quick question, you made mentioned of the cinemascopes early on in the video and how after exporting you realized the single pixel being visible at the top and bottom of the screen. I had the same with my my last project that I just upload to RUclips. How do you fix the problem??? I shot in 4k and used a 1080p letterbox greenscreen!
Hey buddy was just wondering, to you what is better to optimise performance on video edits using an external HDD or edit on your internal then back up the whole project ?
I've moved away from the Cine4 profile and I just use no picture profile and Standard with decreased saturation, contrast, and sharpness. I think it's -3, -1, -3 but it might be -3, -2, -3. it gives me enough dynamic range to work with without needing a ton of work in post.
Hey man love your videos. I find that just making a 1920x817 timeline works for me (then I go to spacial conform and choose fill and it fills the whole screen) and then I don't have to deal with the black bars at all. Have you ever tried this method or is there a reason you don't do it? Thanks!
Hi thereI have been shooting with a a7sii all year.I used the cinema 4 profile you and Matt recommended. I have found some sucess with slog 2 and gamma set to pro. makes the reds and the yellows much more pleasant and less work to grade. have you gave this a try? heard you mention you had some trouble with your profile.
Kraig, It appeared as if the reception was pretty dark. How did you get such crisp resolution on your video? I'm assuming that you bumped your ISO way up, but you can't tell.
Hola que tal! me encanta tu trabajo, realmente es muy profesional! en este momento estoy aprendiendo a realizar videos de eventos sociales, me doy cuenta que tus lineas de tiempo son de 7 min mas o menos. En cuanto al cliente real, le entregas solo en este formato? o también una secuencia adicional con mucho mas tiempo de grabación?... pdta: Soy de Colombia. Muchos saludos!
I shot a wedding last week, it was heavy rainy day, very little daylight coming through the big windows, very dim lights inside the hall and they did not allowed me to use my LED light. Footage came out very grainy. How can I make it better.?..Plz help.

Even though this vid is a couple years old still super helpful Kraig! Ive shot 8 weddings now and of course always trying to improve and this vid helps heaps man ❤️🙌 Thanks heaps legend!
I reached the end, I thumbed it up. Thanks for the insights you gave in this video, really great stuff 👌🏼
Just want to thank you for all the videos yo post they help out so much!
Also what is the name of the background music and where do you usually find your background music?
Very nice edit. It's clean and has good thought put into it. I like how you worked with the audio and music. I did notice the top and bottom pixel error but its not big deal. Also good choice of text font typeface for this style of wedding.
I really love these videos, it gives a great insight into how you do it, especially on your own.
love the channel
Greetings from Polish , I am your subscriber :) Good Job !
best channel eveeerrr
Very nice explanation! Thanks for doing that
Really Amazing Thank you so much for this and all of the videos you made as tutorial so that we can learn more and more
Thank you once again
Very cool video Kraig, I was asked to make a video for my friends wedding and Iam new with a dslr and your videos help me out. thanks.
You do an amazing job considering you do all this on your own dude!
lovelovelove it! super helpful stuff
Your Films has been a great help - continue to share that wealth of knowledge!! Question - do you ever edit in Adobe Premiere?
this was amazing to watch all the behind the scenes and then the edits....and I'm just a photographer...but I think the video was amazing
Just finished watching all of your videos. You worked your ass off the entire day and I liked many of your ideas. Surprised you didn't use a glide cam. Also, watching you struggle with the focus, exposure, color and really a lot of focus problems, I'd suggest you trade up to at least the Canon 5d4.

I learn a loot with you, Thanks for your videos.
Thanks for sharing dude! I’m learning a lot
What would make these "inside the edit" videos better?
edit with premiere pro ;) jk, they are great !
I think a great insight would be to see how you decide to choose your music and more of an audio inside the edit rather than a visual one :)
They're pretty good so far, but if you could make the videos a bit shorter and maybe like 15-16 mins long for those with short attention span. -Also pls if you can help it, stop swallowing saliva every 2 secs, the sound is not at all pleasing when listening with headphones.

Love this! You talked about mistakes, I am curious about the specifics of the mistakes and what you wish you had done different or will make sure to do different for next time. Thanks for all the work you do for us. ~Paul
Talk about how you choose the music.
Your BTS tutorial was really great! So for the extended version, how long was that? And what does that cover? And when were you shooting at 4k?
Very informative keep up the great work
Very nice and professional
Kraig, thank U so much man, I've learn so much with U!!!!
I have a 5D mkiii and a 70D for handheld stuff on a flycam 3000. Thinking a bout getting a third camera. 4K? Panasonic G7 or DJI Osmo? Great job on the edit video. Just started offering a videography package and these are super helpful.
Kraig i love you man you just made my dreams come true
killin it brochacho
Congratulations! The video is very good.
Please, what was the song you used in the wedding trailer?
This is amazing! Thank you!
Kraig, awesome work as always. Do you follow a standard storyboard when shooting and editing?
Hi Kraig, thanks for all the great videos. Do you also produce a longer edit? If so is there a break down of how you edit those?
found it!
Great wrap-up to your BTS series about this wedding. I believe in Part 1 you said you also provided a Family Edit. Do you have an example of one of those?
Kraig first, love the video! Really awesome! Where do you take your music? Thanks!
Totally I am a fan yours!!!!!!!
Great work as usual. Q: Is this Part 3?

Nice work, and thanks for the RUclips Channel. Where did you get the music? Can you comment on rights clearance?
i love your tutorials, which camera you use to record the videos ?
hi ! i was wondering, did you grade the color on your footages ? it's beautiful ! the skin tone etc. thanks ! :)
Sensacional!!!! Awesome!
Hey Kraig,
I love the videos and all the work you have done. As an audio engineer, I'm curious as to the source of your audio songs that you use for your wedding videos.
Thanks
I think you worry too much, you did a great job!
Nice work, how large is your Final Cut library when all is done when shooting and editing in 4K? Would it fit on a 500GB SSD external drive?
Hi, i'm from Mexico (sorry for my bad english) and me and my wife work together on weddings too, thanks a lot for this channel, i just subscribed and i want to ask you where do you get that kind of songs (the song 4 in your timeline), Great work and thanks again

Or is it only used with a short 6 minute type video.
Hi Kraig, do you also upload a sample of your family film? just wondering how long is it.

That's Awesome Man!! What is the name of music used here.
I checked your gear page and did not find the kind of light you use during the reception shoots...

Hi Craig, how many cameras have you set up for this weeding?

At 23:38 you mention that you used the kodak lut again, but active Lut says: Fuji3513, I'm not into FCPX so which Lut was applied :)?
thanks guy and i hope more tutorial ^^!
Amazing you inspired me

Good job!
Hi, thanks for your tutorials. I would like to know, what is the final length of the movie that you give to the couple, thank you
what are the names of the other songs used?
Mention which of the shots are staged and which just randomly happened. Especially during dressing up.

what is your camera setting for this video? white balance and so on
hi kraig
how many film in one wedding do you edit
Is it only this one or do you have full length edit too?
