Even with the debut of new technology and the advancement of video camera chips, we all know that a wedding dinner can be a very 'dim' situation.
Although the newer video cameras perform better in low light conditions compared to its predecessors, the lighting condition in hotels and restaurants still pose a challenge to videographers.
The obvious solution would be to deploy mobile video lights. These unsophisticated little helpers are very much brighter than the strongest flashlight out there, cause a tremendous amount of heat and tend to be an annoyance during wedding dinners.
If mobile video lights are not used at all, the footage shot will be grainy (lots of dots, similar to white noise) and desaturated (loss of colour) making for a very unamusing wedding video.
These lights are not usually attached to the video camera since pointing the light from an 'offset' angle produce tasteful romantic footage. To do this, professional videographers travel in pairs, his/her assistant being the 'light stand' and battery holder. Mobile video lights are paired with pretty heavy batteries.
I've heard my peers telling me that their clients disapprove of video lights as they are disruptive and spoil the mood lighting in the wedding dinner.
My question to you is: Will you agree to videographers deploying mobile video lights? What are your thoughts in this matter.
A note to future brides and grooms: Be prepared for this eventuality let us know how we can assist you in your most romantic episode.
