video unedited version

Got married July 20th. Still waiting for our video.
I spoke to the video guy and he said that the edited version only was included but I want the unedited version too! How do they know what to edit out and leave in???? There might be something that's a family joke or something that we would appreciate and the photographer wouldn't.
They want another $40.00 for unedited version. I've spoken to other people and they all got both videos included. How did everyone else do it??????????????

Re: video unedited version

mine will not be included either----i asked that same question about what if something that i feel is important but they do not and it gets cut out--they said i will be able to see my unedited version and if there is something that i want to be included in the edited version that they would fix it & add it for me.....they said they are the professionals and you are paying a lot of $ -soooo--trust us-we have a good eye for that----so i did and i know it will be just what i want! fingers are crossed!!!

Re: video unedited version

We got married on Aug 3rd and Imagine Studios did our video. We got it back and Nelson told us if there is anything in particular that we do not want in the edited version, we should let him know after we haved viewed the unedited copy. They have been doing this for years so I left all the other pieces up to him. I know he will do a great job.

Re: video unedited version

I think about that too. If it were up to me I would love to sit there with them the whole day and make it myself.. lol
Still, what if I had no vidio at all?
I'm thankfull that I can hire such professionals to vidio tape my special day. I'm sure they will get everything important on there for you.
Are we missing anything important if we didn;t know it was done or said in the first place?
I'm babling, I'm makeing no sence and I need sleep..
LOL

Re: video unedited version

Most will supply the unedited version for a fee ( I too, don't really understand this, but it seems it's like that pretty much across the board)
I am paying an extra $100 for my unedited, I want it so I'll pay the extra.

Re: video unedited version

We got our unedited copy, as part of our pkg, along with 3 edited copy, 1 for us and 2 for the parents....that is not fair that they charge you to see everything that you were not able to see, that is what the unedited is about

Re: video unedited version

heres what i get:
You will be receiving 1 fully edited, chaptered DVD, 3 VHS copies that will include your entire day (edited); photomontage; honeymoon pictures, recap, special effects (slow motion, black & white, sepia, 8mm old filmstyle, etc.) and your choice of music.

Raw footage is not included, but may be purchased.
We may purchase raw footage

Re: video unedited version

booooo Jen and Liz...I am feeling so silly tonight. That's how I feel about photogrpahers that want to charge you for your negatives after you have paid them already to shoot your day BOOOO...this is just my opinion and I am feeling so silly...maybe I should go take a shower, drink some Arbor Mist and go to bed...Liz you know that's my drink...thanks for all the bottles you've purchased for me I just came in from the gym and I am still high on adrenaline

Re: video unedited version

You are so funny Shamma. I sent you forum mail, by the way.

As for my package, I get the same as Jennbaby.

Re: video unedited version

Some places give you the unedited version to view and then they do the edited version. I am not sure if it makes sense to have it after the edited version is completed; unless, they are willing to reedit if requested

Re: video unedited version

Shamma, you have an extra one?
That stuff is good

Re: video unedited version

*smacks Jodi's hands as she tries to get a sip of my Arbor Mist* Get your own lady this was a gift I got lots that don't mean I wanna share What is your favorite flavor...Liz turned me on to them. Now hubby thinks I am a lush.

Re: video unedited version

My raw footage is included in my package, along with 3 VHS and one DVD.

Re: video unedited version

My FH INSISTED we get the raw footage for some reason. I really don't see us watching hours of footage of our wedding but he HAD to have it. It cost $100 extra.

Re: video unedited version

I am also paying $100 for the unedited version of the video.

Re: video unedited version

You shouldnt have to pay Xtra for your raw footage.We got our raw footage, and viewed it and told us what we wanted pulled out of it. We got to keep the rwa footage, plus a master copy for us, and 2 copies...one for each of our parents.

Re: video unedited version

< shamma>I got lots that don't mean I wanna share ..

Nooooooo, we arent a lush..
LOL
j/k

Re: video unedited version

I think it is pretty standard for them to charge you for it, my video company threw it in with my package though.

Re: video unedited version

My package cleary staes the unedited is included.
