Finishing Touches

Here at Beautiful Life we think a Wedding Film should be exciting and visually engaging for all who view it. Thats why we put so much time and effort into making sure that the colours are vivid and look as stunning as they do when you watch a movie or visit the Cinema. One of the ways we do this is by adjusting the colour balance and contrast through colour grading and correction. This adds depth to the video and ensures that colours look similar throughout the whole video. It also makes viewing a more enjoyable experience as the colours are more striking and intense. I could bore you with all the gory technical jargon and detail but instead I thought I would post some “Before and After” shots taken from a current Sikh wedding video I am editing. All our Cinematic Wedding Films are colour enhanced throughout to give you a cinematic look and feel.

Bhupinder and Sukhjit Preparations

Back in January I posted Bhupinder’s Pre-wedding Sikh Ceremonies on my blog. The first was his Jaggo Ceremony and a few days later I posted his Vatna/Maiya Ceremony. Since then Bhupinder has spent a lot of time choosing the right songs for his main wedding day and has recently updated me with his choices. I have just completed the first part of his wedding day covering the Bride and Groom Preparations which takes you to just before the families met outside the Guru Nanak Gurdwara in Bedford. This section of the day is cut to music and will lead into the Ardaas and Milni Ceremonies which will be produced with the original audio.

Claire and Paul’s Wedding took place at Clearwell Castle in Gloucestershire which was a stunning venue. This 17th Century Gothic Castle set the scene for a beautiful wedding Video. I have already posted the Bridal Preparations Video and just wanted to also share the Mini-highlights version which is for sharing with their friends and family. This gives a sneak peak of the whole day squeezed into just 3 mins 14 secs. Enjoy and please leave comments, click the tabs at the bottom of the post to add to Facebook and Twitter.

Bridal Preparations

This is the first section of Claire and Paul’s wedding Video covering the Preparations which were filmed at Clearwell Castle in Gloucestershire. This was a stunning venue and perfect for Claire and Paul’s big day. It was great spending the day with a great couple and their lovely families. The scenery was fantastic and I got some truly beautiful shots. The rest of their Claire and Paul’s Wedding DVD Highlights from Clearwell Castle will be posted here soon.
