FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: Why do I need a videographer when I already have a photographer?
Answer: As sad as it's sounds, the number one thing most couples say about their special day is that they
don't remember most of it. So much planning goes into your day for such a long period of time that once
it's here, it goes by in a second. Having a videographer present allows you to relive all the important moments
as they happened for years to come. People's expressions, the sounds of the day, and all the details you've
spent so much time preparing are archived when you choose to have a videographer present. Lastly,
reserving a professional to handle such a task means clean, steady, properly lit, and close-up shots of your
event are a guarantee.

Question: How would you describe your shooting style?
Answer: Video Vérité is very unobtrusive. Almost all videography is done from positions and angles that
are not in the general view of the couple and their guests. Lots of candid and natural reaction shots are
captured of the couple and their guests throughout the day.

Question: What if there is something I'd really like done, but don't see in the package I want?
Answer: Ask! If you have an idea or special request, we can work with you to create a custom package
appropriate for your specific needs.

Question: What type of equipment do you use?
Answer: Video Vérité uses professional 3 chip digital cameras for all video recording. In addition, sound is
captured through the use of UHF wireless lapel microphones, UHF wireless handheld microphones and other
on-camera microphones. We also use camera mounted lighting for dimly lit situations, especially during receptions.

Question: When do you start video recording on our day?
Answer: If you choose an option in which you have use of a videographer for a specific period of time, you'll
indicate what you want the start time to be. If you've chosen the full day option, your videographer will be
available for a full 10 hour period.

Question: Do we receive our wedding day video on DVD?
Answer: Yes. All footage shot will be given to you on a standard DVD set in it's raw, unedited form (1 copy). In addition. if
you choose to have your footage edited, any edited footage comes on separate DVDs with custom DVD cases and menu screens.

Question: Can we provide input into how we want our video to look and sound?
Answer: Absolutely. Video Vérité prefers all couples provide the music preferences that they want featured
in their video. Also, your input and ideas of what elements of your wedding's "theme" will be made a priority
and incorporated into your video so it will be exactly the way you want it.

Question: How long will it take for me to receive my video?
Answer: Most wedding video productions are completed within a 8–10 week period.

Question: How far are you willing to travel for an event?
Answer: We can travel farther than you probably think! We will provide up to an hour of travel from downtown
Milwaukee as part of the package, with only a minimal travel fee beyond that. We've easily traveled as far north
as Green Bay and south to Chicago.

Question: Where does you name come from? How do you pronounce it?
Answer: We get asked this one a lot. It is phonetically pronouced, Video Vair-it-A Productions. The dictionary
contains the term cinema vérité, which means "a movie that shows ordinary people in actual activities without
being controlled by a director". We've just made a play off of the term!
