Wedding live at She-Oak Grove Centennial Park Sydney

In December 2021, an Indian wedding live stream was successfully done at She-Oak Grove Centennial Park.

It was a challenging project as the weather was pretty bad for days prior to the wedding. My client made a decision to go ahead with the original plan few hours prior to the ceremony commenced, I believe it’s one of the best decisions they ever made in their lifetime.

Owing to the cloudy weather forecast a gazebo was set up by the couple’s friends to cover my broadcast gear just in case of drizzling, a big thank you to them, with their kindness the live stream was running smoothly.

Apart from live streaming the ceremony, this assignment also included wedding videography and photography, I can’t thank you enough to my team for their great effort.

Last but not least, here’s what the client’s feedback,

“Thanks so much Sunny for you and your team's amazing work yesterday. The live stream came out so well and everyone watching remotely loved it!“

Wedding live stream in 2022

I hope everyone has been safe and healthy during New South Wales lockdown.

As New South Wales will soon achieve 70% vaccination rate, I believe wedding restrictions will be eased by the end of 2021 and we can have more freedom and back into our business. My guess is that the number of guests in weddings would be limited initially and might take months to lift all restrictions; on the other hand, the border would also take months to open to interstates and foreign countries, should your guests may not attend due to Covid restrictions, wedding live stream would be a good investment to get your family and friends to virtually participate your special day.

We are ready to work with you and be a part of your wedding. All our team members will be fully vaccinated by October this year. We still have spots for wedding videography and live stream in 2022, please do not hesitate to contact us for booking.

I look forward to working with you.

Stay safe!!

Wedding Videography in Hunter Valley

During the past years, I filmed numbers of weddings in Hunter Valley.

Travelling to Hunter Valley from Sydney is about two and a half hours. For long hours weddings, I would stay there a night before so I did not need to rush and avoid busy traffic in the morning. For late weddings, I would stay in the area overnight and return to Sydney the next day.

Why I love doing weddings in Hunter? Beautiful, it’s absolutely beautiful!! As a videographer (I believe photographers agree with me too), it’s such a stunning location to get stunning footage and photos. There are farms, vineyards, botanic gardens, charm venues etc. Because of these, every time I go to Hunter, I always have my drone ready, I reckon nothing is better than a drone to get some beautiful landscape footage.

Here are some wedding videos filmed at Hunter Valley, enjoy.

Wedding live | ST Bernadette's Catholic Church Lalor Park

Hello Hello Hello!

Last weekend our crew did another live stream wedding event at ST Bernadette's Catholic Church Lalor Park for the lovely Joseph and Veronica. 

The couple’s family and friends are based in Philippine so we had a big crowd this time. It was a total of 20 overseas and local guests joining us on Zoom. We have opted for Zoom instead of Youtube this time as Zoom allows interaction among all guests, physical and virtual. This is actually a special request by the groom, he specifically requested to see every viewer especially his parents during the stream. Therefore, we have projected the Zoom on a big screen as we think it would encourage the interaction more by doing this way. 

As simple as it sounds, but a livestream event is not as easy as just connecting the camera to a computer with Zoom on. The effort we put in to keep the operation smooth is no less than running a live TV show production. Joseph, the groom also requested to broadcast his prewedding video at the beginning of the ceremony, which created some technical complications for us. There was a lot happening on the stage (MC talking, the prewedding video on screen and then the livestream zoom with everyone) already but it was even more happening behind the screen. Our key panel-controller has world-class switching skills and perfect time management in interchanging screens. 

Due to the complex set-up for this wedding, our crew started prepping a week prior to the event including recce to the church to check internet speed and connection to the projector, on-site power points locations, camera set up spots (3x), both hardware and software compatibility etc etc. Without doing these check-ups properly, we wouldn’t have run such a smooth and seamless live wedding.

Live stream wedding services at Crowne Plaza Hawkesbury Valley

This last weekend we had a live wedding event at the Crowne Plaza Hawkesbury Valley, Windsor. The bride and groom were Diana and Michael respectively. Diana’s family and some guests are in New York, Columbia, Norway and Australia. For the most obvious reason, they couldn’t travel for the time being. 

Apart from the live streaming, the ceremony was also captured in cameras for the purpose of editing a full HD version after the wedding. What happened was we had a camera on a gimbal while the bridesmaids and bride walking down the aisle. This is something different to all the previous Livestream weddings that we’ve done. By doing so, it made everyone (especially those who were looking over the screen) feel more engaged.

As mentioned in our blogs before, sound quality is equally important as visual quality to us. Therefore, for most of our weddings, we always dedicated a controller to manage the panels for switching angles and managing signal inputs. We had 4 audio signals, 1 main, 2 backups and one ambience. Some videographers will just do the ambience sound. I can understand why as no monitoring is required, however, the downside is the sound will be very one-dimensional. Our mission is to provide a full and high sound-visual quality to all our audience, regardless you watch it live or an HD video afterwards. 

If you have any questions about Livestream (or not), just drop us a note. 

Ciao for now!
