January 06, 2006
Sarasota, FL - Be a part of world history! The Wedding & Event Videographers Association International (WEVA) and the Sacramento Professional Videographers Association (SPVA) will set a new world record next month for the number of cameras to professionally videotape an actual wedding ceremony.
This special, record-setting event will be videotaped at the beautiful Library Galleria in Sacramento, CA on Wednesday, February 15, 2006.
Professional development workshops, including a focus on this incredible production from behind-the-scenes, and the inaugural screening of the event’s “Same Day Edit,” produced by WEVA International members, will be presented in conjunction with the record-setting camera coverage.
“The World Record Wedding Video Event will offer a unique combination of cutting-edge education for videographers and worldwide promotion of professional wedding videography,” said WEVA International’s Director of Educational Development John Zale.
“Limited to 100 professional videographers, this world record-setter will feature over 200 cameras. It will be a landmark event for both the professional bridal industry and the professional wedding video industry,” said SPVA President Mike Jensen.
“The local and national media coverage, including international streaming of this special event promises to bring wedding videography tremendous publicity. And, videographers will be able to promote their own experience in this history-making event," he said.
Professional videographers who participate in this two-day event (February 15-16), featuring the record-setting coverage and post-event analysis of production techniques, will not only experience a true, once-in-a-lifetime event but will also:
* Be part of an historical video production of a real wedding ceremony joining with 200+ cameras from 100 videographers.
* Receive a complete DVD of the final edited wedding day, including a special bonus section featuring behind-the-scenes footage.
* Receive a World Record Wedding Video Event production shirt to be worn the day of the event.
* Attend optional video seminars before, during, and after the Wedding Ceremony, including going behind-the-scenes on the live Bridal Prep. See how the Glidecam is used to create a unique Photo Shoot segment.
* Compare HD and SD footage of the wedding ceremony. Attend an interactive panel discussion to evaluate the record-setting coverage -- and discuss with the event Editor the challenges anticipated in tackling the incredible task of editing a 200+ camera ceremony.
* Watch a “Same Day Edit” of the event in progress and see the finished video at the same time that it is screened for the wedding guests.
* Attend, on the following day, an optional workshop that will take you through the steps needed to produce a "Same Day Edit" and learn how this exciting turnaround concept can boost your own business.
* Network with dedicated and talented wedding videographers from around the country.
* Receive a WEVA/SPVA Certificate of Participation with the official World Record Wedding Video Event seal.
Additional world records will also be set, including the record for the smallest video camera (hidden in a bouquet), and the most professional videographers to videotape an actual wedding ceremony. Other special elements planned for the world record event will be announced shortly.
This promises to be a truly breathtaking wedding that will be talked about for a lifetime. If you are a serious wedding videographer you won’t want to miss being a part of this team effort.
