Thanks so much! I used the Sigma 24-70 for most of the day 💪

I make wedding films for couples, not filmmakers. Always happy to share current projects here because I think these films hold inspiration and open the door to ideas for someone in a creative rut. Even if it's not "Award Winning" material. I really wish you would put your time and energy into constructive feedback here. Instead you are suggesting that I be more like the aforementioned filmmakers to best suit your personal preference. I won't be doing that. Im all for constructive feedback and honest thoughts on how we can all get better at the craft. But this is a terrible way of motivating someone which I feel was maybe your intention? Still unclear. However, your ideology that I should make films like Ray Roman, Studio King, Story and Motion, Plus Two, sets a dangerous precedence in this industry. Just because a film doesn't look like these folks doesn't mean it holds any less value. Just because I share insight into what Ive experienced in my journey of wedding filmmaking doesn't mean I should be making the same type of films. This film isn't for you, it's for the couple and anyone who finds something useful from it. Whether it be gear considerations, shot ideas, music inspiration, etc. I will never be someone I'm not here. This channel has always been about becoming a better filmmaker and sharing that journey. You are more than welcome to follow along that journey but I think your time and energy would be better suited on those other platforms. We clearly have different views on what makes a filmmaker great. Wish you the best in your journey. P.S. It's spelled, "J A I R E D"

@@cp23peters Sigma 24-70 is my go to

@@WaywardNorth Same lense I rock with!! Good man

Do it!!!! Love these shots so much

Such an underrated venue. Working there again this year! 💪

Yeah this was 99% handheld with the additional ceremony angles locked off on tripods

Usually the Sigma 24-70

@@WaywardNorth Do you have any mist filters on the lens ?

@@seanthemessenger2809 I do! You can fine my full kit here: www.amazon.com/shop/waywardnorth/

Appreciate the kind words man!

Thanks so much! This day and these two were such a beauty!

Thanks friend! Great idea for a video. The FX3 is amazing - I have the A7Siii which is my primary but the FX30 is a beast.

I used the FX30, A7IV, and A7Siii here

💪

@@averyfreeman799 hey friend! You can find my Musicbed playlist here: fm.pxf.io/waywardnorthplaylist

An Instamic inside the dress is actually a good idea if you can find a strong adhesive to keep it in place. My only concern would be that thing falls out and you not know when and where it happened.

@WaywardNorth right, I wasn't sure if some of those stickies or boob tape would be sturdy enough for that

Let me know how this solution goes! I hate that Thigh Strap

@ same!!

@@spinkscapes775 Totally! I have the tascam pros along with the version 1 they still get the job done well but 32 bit float is definitely worth it!

@@bradenzoromski either a mic sleeve or using the magnet mount that comes with it

Haha I totally get it. It can be pretty intimidating but when the stars align its amazing to have!

@@martinweddingfilms Yes I have the pros too and meant to mention it but was trying to get the video up so quick I forgot but I included it in my kit link. They are awesome!!

@@michaelfrymus Haha in NC we get one good dusting a year and if it’s an inch of snow everything closes and all the bread and milk are bought up

It was so much fun! Thanks so much Butch appreciate you!

I think that would be a great option to explore for sure. maybe if they did a white version of their new M2s id buy straight away. not for bride but for a priest here in ireland as its mostly church wedding

@ they give stickers to attach on them. And theres a white one

@@zagyvaakos yeah I know, I have them. but their is a new version. smaller but not in white. now branding also

@@zagyvaakos I love the idea of the lark system but found the audio quality tough to navigate and get to sound the way I liked. The app system is super finicky and doesn’t record internally like the DJI Mic 2 system but still a good option to consider

@@HouseofRenI like my M2’s and use them a lot for my commercial gigs where I can have a second mic boomed for redundancy. On a wedding day, I don’t want any issues with interference or the mic falling off so I stick to the Sony tx660. I have two tx660 and my Tascam dr40x into dj mixer. Covers everything I need from dad reaction, on groom and on mic for speeches. I have the dr10l but I don’t bother with it anymore. Just sharing to give you ideas. Cheers! :)

@@HouseofRen Sorry my kit isn’t up to your standards. This is what’s worked pretty well for me considering I still book a full calendar of weddings year after year. I guess I missed the scripture reading on you have to update to new tech every year if you want to be a great wedding filmmaker. Old school stuff is awesome. Your mentality and attitude towards this channel is not. If you have so much wisdom I’d encourage you to start a channel and share there. Everytime I see your name here you have some kind of dilemma with how other people do things. So please 🤴 start creating and sharing your mountain of wisdom that surpasses all creation elsewhere.

@@WaywardNorth apologies for my poor tone. I have been using every piece of audio equipment on the market, but im a creator not a teacher. but their is a danger in using older technology especially for new creators who would find your videos easily because your a fantastic source of learning. the danger being low level recording from groom, or too much gain recording from an dj mixer. so while tried and tested by you, of course your going to get great audio. but for a newbie it might cause a lot of pain if something goes wrong. Side note also and im sure you are aware, but im sure brands would love to work with you and send you new gear to try and test. I would much rather listen to you over most other wedding KZbin channels. maybe im in the business a long time to have tried so much gear and often wasted money, maybe I know a lot of editing tricks, maybe even too much but ill always tune into hear what you have to say because I love your mind set. Im in an irish market so a lot doest apply as are weddings are so very different but you will always be a channel I will subscribe to. I ll try to keep my comments more light hearted, maybe ask questions instead of be so direct.

@@HouseofRen I appreciate your response and I apologize for the rash response. I agree with you to a certain extent. I also think it is important to teach problem solving rather than relying too heavily on technology and a lot of what I recommended in my kit in the description is updated models with 32 bit float such as the Tascam DR10L Pro, Zoom F2, Zoom F3, InstaMIC Pro etc. at the end of the day with A.I. plugins being incredible. You can make most recorders sound studio level. But yeah maybe as a beginner it would be advantageous to start out with a 32 bit float which I’ve definitely recommended on this channel. But the tools I use are still beginner friendly. Just a different set of tools for the job.

@@WaywardNorththis

Respectfully, I feel like 32 bit float is awesome but at a wedding is it necessary? 99% of the time the answer is no for me. Standard dr10L has not once clipped for me at any wedding since 2016 when I first used them… same with the DR40x. All valid points you’re making, but I really do think for weddings, the kit mentioned is pretty amazing. The best part of it all is that we have freedom to use what we like and what works for us. 👍🏼

@@chrisserino9757 thanks man! I do want another handheld solution but if it ain’t broke why fix it. Appreciate you and for sharing!

@@PriyalDey Hmm probably the sigma 18-50 F2.8 would be a solid option amzn.to/42lihP5
