So it is official. I am going to be expanding my business next year and including wedding videography packages! Take a look at what we are currently working on. The full video is coming soon…
Say hello to the new SixFourteen blog! It has been a long time in the works and I have been MAJORLY slacking on my blogging this year. It’s about to turn around though! Along with the new blog, branding and business cards (check out the video I put together below), I’ve got a new outlook, and that includes blogging like CRAZY! So stay tuned… There are some awesome posts coming up!
By the way… all branding, logo design, blog design and business card design was done by a ridiculously talented stupidly amazing designer named Brendan Pittman. You should definitely check out his work.
One thing that has always intrigued me just as much as photography is videography. The main reason being that the perfect combination of video footage and music can stir up a ton of emotion. Music in a video, is like good lighting in a photograph. It completely affects the way you feel when looking at it. I have a HUGE passion for music too, so having the ability to take what I love (photos), make them move and then add music has always seemed so awesome to me. (You can only imagine my fascination with music videos, haha) Since I started shooting photos professionally, I find my self not being able to pay attention during a movie or TV show because I am constantly thinking about camera angles, focusing, camera settings, how the scene is lit, color correction, camera stabilization, etc. So I bought a decent DSLR that will shoot HD video, got some awesome video editing software, a slider, monopod, and other stuff and decided to give it a run. I’ve been slowly studying and learning different techniques in my free time, and I am really having fun with it.
This is one of my first attempts at shooting with my new stuff. Hopefully I can continue to learn and grow in this area.
