Somethings taken an unexpected turn.
Working on a wedding video currently and one thing I've always been fond of is good audio from ceremony and speaches. By good audio, I mean being able to hear the foot steps walking down the isle, the grooms voice croak as the nerves kick in, the shakes as the vowels exchange, but this wedding video im working on somehow somethings gone wrong, or did it go right?
Usually i put grooms mics just inside their jackets close enough tp their mouth to get the best possible audio without the ruffle of clothes moving about, now i get all sorts on the recordings, idle chatter, adorable comments to his bride and wife, and even comments on how great weve been during their conversations . Im not sure whats changed for this one, but somehow the entire way through the recording of the ceremony the mic has been in the right position against his chest so that i can hear the grooms heart beat. By heart beat I mean it starts slow, then bride arrives and its racing, then things relax as they sit for the church ceremony, then as they stand for the vowels its going flat out! He must have hit 180bpm at some points im sure! Now im a soppy romantic and think its lovely, the real reactions and physical emotions from a wedding that no photograph could ever portray nor any content creator will ever show. Now thats a side to video that I didnt even know I wanted to hear on the recording. Ive not decided as yet if I should embrace the heartbeat throughout parts of the ceremony, or edit it out, but its got me curious to know what the soppy among our followers think.
Cute real special touch, or
Distracting bin it?
