In the early years of wedding video, the quality simply was not up to standards. Just to get any decent footage the Los Angeles wedding video had to
have very bright lighting but even that still resulted in poor contrast and color saturation of the image. The
audio of the wedding video would also be in mono which meant poor sound quality in addition to the poor quality footage. Not to mention,
non-linear editors were too expensive or hadn’t even existed. As a result, the most advanced type of editing would just to remove the unusable footage
in which the wedding videographers were moving from one location to another and also maybe adding a few special transitional effects such as fading in
and out. Because of such low quality many have had a poor impression of modern day wedding videographers. |

Wedding Video Los Angeles Arrives to the Digital Age
What many have not come to realize is that the videographers' technology has jumped leaps and bounds since the early inception of providing
Los Angeles wedding video services. One would think since Hollywood is in the Los Angeles area and not too far from
Orange County, that it would be common knowledge in
Southern California that the technology of videographers can provide sometimes breathtaking footage.
The days of recording Los Angeles wedding video footage to an analog tape are coming to the end in which the digital age has now revolutionized.
The vast improvements allow being able to take good footage in even the lowest of lit situations.
Most prosumer videographer cameras also record audio in stereo. Not to mention, the super and hyper cardiod shotgun microphones as well as wireless
lapel microphones allow wedding videographers to have amazing audio quality.
Technological Improvements in Wedding Video
Because of this technological explosion in video, wedding video in Los Angeles,
Orange County, and throughout Southern California have multiplied in the number of providers.
Before the costs of creating a quality Los Angeles wedding video was not even justified which also limited the number of
providers. But since the cost of a professional digital videographer camera of come down as well as the cost of non linear editors, it has actually
resulted in many entering this industry who really are not qualified to do so.
Capturing Great Wedding Video Footage in Orange County or Los Angeles
Many of those now involved in the wedding video business entered in thinking all they have to do is buy a couple of prosumer videographer cameras,
a tripod, a computer workstation, editing software, and a DVD authoring software and now they are qualified to charge thousands of dollars to provide
wedding video services in Los Angeles, Orange County, or other areas in Southern California.
But just because so called wedding videographers have the equipment, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are equipped in creating a cinematic and journalistic
wedding video. A Wedding video professional, like any film or professional production requires the videographers to have the ability in capturing great
footage. The wedding videographers have to have shots with great composition, lighting, and camera angles. The sound and audio has to be audible and
clear just like any movie or television show.
