Behind the Scenes Shooting a Real Wedding Part 2 // How To Film Weddings

[@Ootini4]

It's always nice watching BTS after 9 years of filming weddings and seeing other people doing what you're doing. It's good reassurance! 😆

[@BuddyG]

Blake and Jon work very well together... They are like butter....

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Ha, thanks!

[@sinanzorro]

Great work. Loved watching it. Is the finished video now available? Greetings from Hamburg/Germany.

[@RedeemedProductions]

Had so much fun with this one!! Let’s go!

[@tonylovephotography]

Great Job 👍

[@AdamKozak100]

awesome behind the scenes though

[@JaredRibic]

24:07 - Loved the ballerina move, Blake!

[@BlakePollino]

💃

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Can’t believe we gave it to you for free 😆

[@DanielPalmerMedia]

Great work!

[@BlakePollino]

Thanks Daniel!

[@diegosantamariafilms3582]

Thanks, guys!!!!

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

You bet!

[@Alexg_films]

Been waiting for this one! 🙌🏼🎉

[@BlakePollino]

Thanks for waiting! This one is fun!

[@Alexg_films]

They watched the Guatemala film??? 😂 JB must’ve been feeling really good about that.

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

We've been waiting for you to watch it, haha

[@mhweddingfilms]

ohhhh okay so I am not alone on the format stress LMAO. I swear everytime I format my heart pretty much beats out of my chest!

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Yeah it’s a real thing.

[@AdamKozak100]

the monopod is great for some shots...but shaky in others

[@puremotioncinema]

That was great! Great content as usual!!! How long do the npf975s last on the Aputures? We just got some and were thinking on vmount but it's just too bulky to carry around

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

It depends. But I can get a couple hours out of them on full blast!

[@BSRWeddingFilms]

2:35 you filmed in Guatemala! 😂

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

I didn’t bring it up! They did!

[@GabrielAdeloju]

Just out of curiosity, do you guys shoot in a log profile, or just a standard colour profile?

[@BlakePollino]

We shoot in SLOG3 on the Sonys! Thanks for watching!

[@garrettgoerlvisuals]

Can anyone explain why the hell there is 4 photographers during the romantics?! @21:16

[@BlakePollino]

The photographer had a 2nd shooter, a friend who shoots in a different more documentary style, and an assistant that was just getting started and helping with some photos. It was a lot!

[@waynosfotos]

Even the behind the scenes is filmed better than what some people produce as a wedding film lol

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Haha thanks!

[@ryleehandy8955]

Do y’all have the full film somewhere?

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Actually it’s still being edited! We will post a link in the description when it’s done!

[@chadmiller9523]

Do you record your footage through the monitor or your camera SDs?

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Camera!

[@816filmco]

This was great! Wondering which monitor John is using?

[@misstoridanielle30]

I was going to ask this too!

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

SmallHD focus 7

[@Ootini4]

How many photographers did they have? lol and they all were getting the same shot during the sunset pose 😂

[@BlakePollino]

There were 4 pohotographers, 2 of us on video and, one person shooting video BTS…so during the portrait session there were 7 of us 😅

[@SaraCanducci]

Quick tip for everyone: NEVER... like N E V E R format your card while you're at the wedding! Get your cards (and backup cards in case something goes wrong) ready the day before, so you won't risk to delete something and you'll be waaaaay more chill anyway

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

We should have you do our bts from now on 😛

[@SaraCanducci]

@@HowToFilmWeddings Oh don't get me wrong guys! I absolutely LOVE what you do and didn't mean to come across the wrong way ☺ It's just that I've learned the hard way how what might seem like a small little thing, can actually cause so much extra stress or potential issues (especially for newbies, not for seasoned filmmakers like you) which is like, the last thing you want to happen on a wedding day

[@QQualityMovies]

love your dance moves! But where is Kraig Adams? Somebody seen him?

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

He’s hiking in the mountains rolling in dough from his YT channel 😆

[@BlakePollino]

Who?

[@QQualityMovies]

@@BlakePollino WhoisMatt but different

[@BlakePollino]

@@QQualityMovies Haha I was joking, I know who Kraig is.

[@gracefilmsatl]

Formatting cards almost gives me a heart attack every time 😂

[@BlakePollino]

Saaaaame!

[@junypoei]

where can i bay the bride clothes hanger ?

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Literally no idea, haha

[@BlakePollino]

Let's gooooooo!!!!

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

you look so manly in this video.

[@BlakePollino]

@@HowToFilmWeddings There was a lot more Blake to love when this was filmed.

[@waynosfotos]

Did you get hit with a copyright claim on the music?

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Which music? No we didn’t :)

[@waynosfotos]

@@HowToFilmWeddings good 👍 best to stay like that.

[@robwalker7245]

As a practical matter for me i format my cards the day BEFORE an event had a card go bad in a drone and lost that footage, thank GOD it wasnt the camera!!

[@ronflores7]

Can get out of my mind why you asked the dj not to play music while the group was getting presented? Besides music infringement is there another reason?

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

We were asking the band not to play music in the background for the intro because the groom’s brothers were singing a song live, and there was a welcome speech happening.

[@EverWhereFilms]

is it MY fault CHPTRS has the most baller tracks?! I feel attacked

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

We love CHPTRS

[@markthomas8018]

Rude telling them to shut up. The videographer's job is to shut up and be discreet.

[@HowToFilmWeddings]

Not sure if this is a joke or not, but I’ll respond in case it isn’t. I was saying “shut up” in a positive manner because the footage was so ridiculously good. Like “shut up this isn’t really happening!” We would literally NEVER tell someone to shut up. Also, the videographers job can be anything, not just “to shut up and be discreet.” My couples would HATE if I was discreet. 😉
