Hey, thanks for the excellent comments on the film! Yes, those doves had to fly home in the rain...however, the dove lady (or wrangler, not to sure what she would technically be called) told everyone that the doves don't actually mind the rain at all. She also said that they are trained to arrive at her house later that night....crazy, eh?

ahhh...the grain....yup...those darn HVX200's cant handle low light very well. But we did use a Sony EX1 which handles low light like a charm, however, the dancing ballroom area had basically no light at all and we had to bump up the brightness in FCP a bunch to even make things visible.

Thanks for awesome compliments,

Cheers,

Casey Warren

Amish,

Yo! thank you for the kind words and compliments!!

Also, It was truly a pleasure to be a part of your wedding day as well... seriously you guys had the most hoppin' dancing I have ever seen! your reception ranks among the best! You guys rocked it like non-other.

Lets plan to meet up the next time im in Vancouver, or if you come down this way to Seattle.

Matt,

Thank you!

The ring shot was a total blast to shoot! Danielle and I had a great time coming up with ideas for where to put them, etc...and we thought..."Ohhhh the Ocean...." which in the end provided some pretty cool overcrank wave shots....however, right after we did that main ring shot Danielle bent over to adjust the rings and my iPhone slipped out of her pocket and fell onto the rocks....only to be totally obliterated by a wave seconds later....

Good news is that it survived and is still semi-operational... :) It was all worth it for the ring shot though!!

Cheers,

Casey Warren

Oh man .... I got an iPhone last week so I can feel your pain :( I destroyed a camera getting this shot - vimeo.com/1325720 - the lengths we'll go to hey :)

Haha, I checked out that video when you first posed it.....CRAZY....did you have that cam insured? Eventhough it destroyed the camera the footage is totally awesome.

~Casey Warren

Yep, the cam is insured. Still waiting to sort it all out though - it's been well over a month :(

Thanks for the amazing comments!

I agree, the music is a bit dramatic, but thats how we like it..dramatic and cinematic! :)

Cheers,

Casey Warren

Lol, yes the ring shot got a lot of "ooohhhhhhh"'s in anticipation when we showed it at the wedding. I think they were thinking the same thing.

In reality the rings were really secure, Danielle was standing on the left side just out of frame with her hands open incase a larger than normal wave came by and swept them away. Also, the slow-motion helps the waves look a bit bigger than they were...We originally were filming in 24p and then reviewed the footage and we laughed because the wave was so dinky.

We use the Redrock quite a bit, most of the ceremony footage was shot with both the Redrock and Letus.

I appreciate your compliments.
