Pulling a Rabbit Out of My Hat

Through video editing I can be a bit of a magician. Hocus Pocus, things magically appear.

Editing also always me to operate a time machine. A few buttons pushed and it's as if it never happened.

I recently finished a video for a bride who was not happy with the minister's performance during the ceremony. She literally had to tell him what to say - as the ceremony was happening!

Needless to say, she did not want to relive that each time she watched her DVD. I told her I'd hop in my time machine and erase it from history. It sounded like I was being sarcastic, but I meant it.

A few trims of the raw video, a couple of audio edits... and presto! No one who watches the video would ever know the minister was ill-prepared.

There are many reasons to hire a professional photographer and a professional videographer for your wedding. The ability to fix the past is a good one.

Here's the note of thanks I received for my Houdini-like editing...


Bob,
It was out of sight. Unbelievable and definitely one of a kind. Thanks so much for your hard work. We were so glad with the finished product and loved watching it on Valentine's Day. It was the perfect gift.

I love the "well wishes" (cute surprise) and the final credits in black and white. You reached way down deep in your magician hat and we thank you.
