Find trusted wedding videographers in North West Melbourne

Creating a beautiful and unforgettable wedding video starts with picking a good wedding videographer. Airtasker makes it easy for you to find the top-rated videographers and wedding cinematographers who will work with you to capture, edit, and create a breathtaking time capsule of your big day.

In general, you can expect a Tasker to provide the following as part of their wedding videography services:

Providing the video equipment 

The Tasker will provide the cameras, tripods, cables, microphones, and other equipment necessary to capture your big day. They may own the equipment themselves or rent them - and this may affect their rates. 

Creating the video treatment

The video treatment is a guide for the production of your wedding video. This can include whether you want a cinematic-style wedding video or a documentary-like treatment. The video treatment also covers the storyline, colours, music choice, and live audio (if live audio will be used). 

For example, you and the Tasker may decide to open the video with a narration of your love story, followed by shots of you getting ready on the day itself. Some videographers may recommend against using live audio, while you may prefer to hear your vows again whenever you watch your wedding video. Weddings with several rituals, such as Asian weddings, may require you to orient your videographer, so they know what moments to focus on. (Or, you could tailor your task post and limit it to videographers who have covered weddings like yours.)

If you’re having a destination wedding, let the Tasker know, so they can bring a second shooter to shoot footage of the area or allow extra time to capture your wedding venue during its most beautiful moments. 

Shooting the raw footage

On the day itself, the videographer shoots the raw footage. Depending on the package you get, this may start with you and your wedding party getting your hair and makeup done, guests arriving at the venue, the actual ceremony, the reception or the afterparty. 

More affordable packages may limit coverage to just the ceremony and reception. In contrast, whole-day or unlimited time packages assure you that the Tasker will capture just about every moment of your big day.

Editing the wedding video 

This starts with the Tasker backing up the footage and assembling the clips. If live audio is used, they’ll sync this with the video. Otherwise, they’ll lay out the music tracks, making sure that the song’s climax matches with the most dramatic moments of your wedding day. Then, they’ll create a rough cut. They may present this rough cut to you for approval before coming up with the final cut. Once your wedding videographer is happy with the final cut of your wedding film, they’ll colour-grade and export the video for you to enjoy and share with your loved ones.

Booking wedding photography and videography together or separately

One company for both gives you a single contact, one contract and a team that’s used to working together. Your photographer and videographer know how to share the best positions during the ceremony without appearing in each other’s shots. Some packages bundle photography and videography at a combined price, so compare that total with separate quotes.

Hiring separately lets you choose the best person for each. For example, you might pair a documentary-style photographer with a more cinematic videographer. If you go this way, introduce your wedding photographer and videographer before the day, share one run sheet, and agree who stands where during the vows and first dance.
