In a recent survey of brides married in 2002 conducted by WEVA international:

* Revealed that brides in the planning process of the wedding do not immediately realize the impact of a professionally-produced video. Before the wedding, while brides are making plans, over half (54%) rank video as one of the Top 10 most important bridal services. This number increases to 79% AFTER the wedding. Before the wedding, 23% of brides view video as a Top 5 service. After the wedding, that number climbs to 42%. The value of video becomes greater after the wedding. And, after the wedding, 94% of these brides say they consider professional videography at least a Top 10 service.

As brides look back at their wedding, 95% of brides who utilized a professional videographer feel future brides should consider using a professional videographer.

* The survey results reveal professional videography has become very important to today's brides. Its value is comparable to wedding photography, and even more valuable in some respects, according to brides surveyed. Most importantly, the survey showed that brides feel more emphasis needs to be placed on videography in the wedding planning process.

Why Digital video?
 
Digital video technology allows us to record and edit your event with no loss in quality. It means that you are guaranteed the best possible version of your important moments. Digital editing allows artistic creativity which until recently was only possible in Hollywood type studios.

Can't my family member create a good video of my wedding?
 
Often times when family members video tape your wedding they will get caught up in the joy of the day and something important could get missed.

Does the person making your video have enough battery to get through the ceremony and reception. Frogman Productions uses multiple long life batteries assuring we don't run out at a critical time.

When a family member tapes your wedding they are probably using a consumer level camera with a single chip imaging sensor. Frogman Productions uses professional cameras with 3 chip imaging sensors assuring much better picture quality.

How is the sound from a consumer camera microphone. Generally not very good unless you are close. Frogman Productions uses a combination of wireless microphones and Mini-Disc recorders to assure great sound.

I have seen demos where the sound was bad. How do you assure good sound quality on my video?
 
We have a professional UHF wireless microphone to be worn by either the groom or officiant. We also have additional wireless microphones if needed. Mini-Disc recorders with lapel microphones are also used as additional sound points around the venue. This allows us to get good sound even for outdoor weddings. Frogman Productions is able to create as many as 6-7 different sound gathering points. This assures your vows will be heard on your video.

How long has Frogman Productions been creating wedding videos.
 
Frogman Productions has been creating wedding videos professionally since 2002. Prior to that our techniques were being polished by doing weddings mostly for friends and family for the previous 7 years. During this time Philip has worked in television production learning additional techniques and skills. Our customers are excited after watching our videos and are quickly spreading the word about Frogman Productions. Feel free to contact us if you would like some references regarding our work and customer service.

What is a DVD?
 
It is the latest in digital video technology that will preserve your memories in pristine quality. VHS tape will deteriorate in about 10 years. DVD will last for over 100 years. Because we believe DVD is most desirable we are now offering your choice of DVD or VHS. DVD is no longer an additional charge.


Back

Do we get to make changes after the video is delivered?
 
We want you to look at the final video and make sure everything is right. Are the names spelled correctly? Is that important shot included? We will make minor changes to make the video just right.

Back

Are guests at the wedding interviewed for the video?
 
Some of our packages include guest interviews if desired by the couple. Instead of going table to table we have you give us the names of select family and friends you would like interviewed. We then interview those individuals and anyone else who may volunteer. This assures better quality interviews. If desired we can also go table to table interviewing guests.
