The Value of Video

Nationwide Survey of Brides Reveals Value of Videography (courtesy of WEVA - Wedding and Event Videographers Association)

Professional wedding videography is rapidly becoming a preferred medium for recording and preserving wedding memories, according to a new nationwide survey of brides who were married in 2002. The survey, commissioned by WEVA International, was conducted between January 27-February 5, 2003 by Breakthrough Marketing, Inc. Many of the results may seem intuitive to a dedicated professional videographer. However, the new survey provides the results in a quantifiable form.

The survey, conducted by telephone, 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.

However, that number increases to 79% AFTER the wedding, as brides look back and assess the individual value of each service. 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.

The survey revealed the value of video is greater with brides who use professional video services compared to those who don't. Before the wedding, 41% of brides using a professional videographer consider videography a Top 5 service. But after the wedding the number grows to 59% who consider video a Top 5 service. And, after the wedding, 94% of these brides say they consider professional videography at least a Top 10 service.

One of the most surprising findings of the survey is the second thoughts, even regrets, among brides who decided not to utilize the services of professional videographers.

Among brides who used a friend or family member to videotape their wedding instead of using a professional, nearly half (49%) said they would hire a professional if they had it all to do over again.

These second thoughts are even more pronounced with brides who didn't have their weddings videotaped at all. In hindsight, 60% say they wished they had had their weddings videotaped.

As brides look back at their wedding, the survey showed that 79% of brides agree that future brides should at least consider using a professional to videotape their wedding day. Those feelings are even more pronounced among the brides who utilized the services of professional videographers, 95% of whom think 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.

Q&A Session with Fisher Video Productions...

2010-09-07T15:21:00.016-04:00

I wanted to take the time to address some of the frequently asked questions that our clients commonly have. This is an opportunity for us to show our potential clients who we are and why we're different. Our philosophy of placing the needs of our clients first, providing great service and always being honest has allowed Fisher Video to establish themselves as New England’s premier wedding and event video production company.

How long have you been a professional wedding and event Videographer? How many weddings have you done?

I have been shooting weddings and events for Fisher Video for 12 years. Over that time, I have filmed over 250 weddings/ events. Fisher Video is entering its 34th year in business and over the years has captured thousands of weddings and special events.

Are you recommended by anyone?

We are the preferred vendor at many of New England's leading reception facilities and are recommended by some of the best photographers in the business. Photographers will commonly tell me that they enjoy working with us because we are unobtrusive, work with them to get all shots needed and are very professional.

What kind of cameras do you use and what format do you shoot on? Do you own your own equipment?
Fisher Video uses Canon XH-A1 HD cameras, Sony Microphones to capture the vows, and professional grade tripods, dollies, etc. We also use an adjustable Veralux light for darker reception halls.

What is your shooting style/philosophy?
Our shooting and editing philosophy is a unique combination of Documentary and Cinematic styles.

What kind of packages do you offer?
We have a several packages available that range in price and features. However, we can easily customize one for you if that suits you better than a particular pre-set package. All of our packages include event coverage (ceremony through last dance).

Do we get a "say" in the editing process?
Yes you do. We offer an Edit conference where the couple can make final decisions based on their specific likes and tastes.

How far in advance must I book your services?
We traditionally book our services 6 - 12 months in advance. We do require a $100.00 deposit to reserve your date.

What forms of payment do you accept?
Fisher Video accepts cash, check, Mastercard, Visa and Discover.

Does your company offer a written agreement? Are you insured?
We do have a formal written contract stating all of our terms and conditions. We are also fully insured. Fisher Video also carries back-up equipment with us to every event.

What happens once I contract you?
Once you contract us, you can sit back and let us take care of the rest! All production documents that are needed for your wedding video, such as Notes for the Videographer Form, Music Selection Sheet, Edit Decision List, etc. are generally handled via e-mail, mail, fax, and/or over the phone. Yes you do. Fisher Video is one of the few video production companies that offer a post-wedding edit conference. This allows our clients to make final decisions based on their specific likes and tastes. Obtrusiveness of their Videographer is usually a main concern for most couples and it is what we consider to be one of the biggest advantages we have over many of our competitors.
