Wedding video: first attempt. DVX100B

Looks good. I think you forgot to deinterlace your quicktime file. you can see the jaggy lines during movement in vimeo. You can probably just open the quicktime file and hit command-j, go to video source and check the deinterlace box on the bottom right corner. Then replace your footage in vimeo..

exactly what i was thinking
 
nice work.
personally i dislike the abrupt affect of a camera flash in the middle of my footage.
[goes back to when a fantastic shot was ruined by an overeager photog]

unless you were looking for that, it's easy to fix.
cut to the last frame of the shot just before the flash.
then adjust the sequence duration to fit the open slot- by whatever factor makes it fit.
So, there's a little slo-mo in place of the flash thing.

looked very nice. liked the wide shot of the church from the back- just like being there!

short though.
most folks like hour long things showing all the festivities and stuff.
[shot one wedding, will never do it again- but the food was good.]

Thanks for the critique!

I was just following the photog around. He's a friend who set this up for me so I could give it a try. So, it's more documentary style I guess. Thanks for the tip, however. I know I'll employ that technique in the future! This was only the montage, so the entire video isn't there. You're right, it's a LONG day. I was starved, at the end.
 
Thank you everyone! I'm excited to get out and do some shooting in 2009. I just called my buddy and he's booked me in May for another wedding. I'll get paid this time!
