Wedding of our good friend - Risto

November 18th, 2008

It’s always fun to see friends wearing the wedding cloth(tradition Chinese style or western in church) as you usually see him wear T-shirt and short pant everyday, haha. He lives in a new public estate in Tin Shui Wai, so new that we can’t find on map(it only show Public Housing under construction). Since Risto is our friend so we don’t have much stress and just have fun on that day.

The Church wedding of Kathy & Risto started at 4pm, another HDV editing challenge! BTW, Risto’s colleague William is the photographer on their big day.

This is the same day edit and the song was chosen by Risto & Kathy together.

2 same day edit in 1 day

November 4th, 2008

There are 2 same day edit in 1 day.  Two video clips, two difference styles.

We always suggest client to decide the style of same day edit based on their rundown.

Esther & Marty have their ceremony during banquet. Only the traditional Chinese ceremony happened in the morning. The core of this video is to present the happiness during the door openning game, so client prefer to use a fast beat song instead.

They choose Martin Studio to be their wedding day photographer.

Christina & Peter have church ceremony on they wedding day. They chose the song that is relate to thier religion. It can easily to achieve emotional and romatic mood, in this case, the video mainly present the solemn atmosphere, the joyful during the morning, not to spend much time to descript what door openning game in the morning.

Luckymui and Kin also met their technical institute colleage in the church. Ha haa.. (Remember to send us the photo, Lawrence!)

Lawrence Tsang is their wedding day Photographer and he also met a friend in the church too!

Hello kitty coach

November 3rd, 2008

We really like their traffic arrangement. Karen & Sam were in the same coach with all bridesmaids and groomsmen. They chose to stay and have fun with friends and make us feel intimately. Lawrence is their photographer. Here is the same day edit.

Mission Impossible!?

October 2nd, 2008
We used to live in the public housing estate. Shooting wedding there always make us feel warm and neighbourly.  Jan & Ivan is a happy couple and never hide their laughing! (Thanks for Bob Mak’s photos)

Jan & Ivan want to use the theme music of Mission Impossible to start their same day edit. Normally we wouldn’t suggest to use more than a song in the same day edit. They promised to give us enough time to edit so we decided to try it. And finally the same day edit come out using 3 songs combined!   

Here is the same day edit. 

The day after storm signal no.9

August 27th, 2008

It’s lucky that the storm arrived at the day after we came back from UK so our flight was not affected so we can back in time to shoot the wedding of Mandy & Meng. 

It’s lucky that the weather became better on their big day. There was still raining in the morning. The rain stop in the afternoon and we can see the sunlight through the stained glass in the church! Shooting this wedding was feel like we’re not back to HK cause Meng & his family are English speakers. He always kiss Mandy without asking from the photographers. We always think people should enjoy their wedding and relax. We also like the song they choose for the same day edit.

It’s lucky that we have chance to work with two HK famous wedding photographers together in one wedding. Lawrence Tsang & Simonthephoto -  we have worked with them before individually. But this time, we work along side with BOTH of them together in ONE wedding. You can always learn a lot from those masters. Lawrence’s team are always helpful specially I’m shooting alone. With their friendly reminder, our blog has not been update for a long time(Yeah! they read our blog!) and we shall do it more frequently(we’ll try our best).

Why everything is so lucky? Maybe Luckymui is here, haha. Think positive!

Here is the same day edit.

This is not Givefunla’s production…What is this?

April 25th, 2008

This is not Givefunla’s production…What is this?

http://vreteam.blogspot.com

This is VRE Team!

VRE Team is formed with a group of experience editors and videographers and start video production from May 07 to provide service for photographers / co-operator only.


Relationship between VRE team and Givefunla

In the past years, Givefunla used to accept some co-operated photographers order to provide economic video production.

However, As Luckmui@ Givefunla wish to concentrate in the video production that she like the unique fun and blissful style mostly, So Givefunla make decision not to accept those photographe’s order from May 07.

To consider about the request of the photographer Givefunla used to co-operated before, Luckymui@Givefunla trainned some editors and contact more videographers to keep running of the photographer’s video production.

Therefore all of the video production order from the photographers used to co-operate with Givefunla before are now handling by VRE team and it has been run for some days already. And some of the photographers keep referring clients to contact Givefunla directly for advance video production.

During year end of 07, Luckymui@Givefunla still keep an eye on the quality of VRE production to ensure it can hit the standard of the photographer’s budget and quality.

And Givefunla cerebrate for the independence of VRE team in April 2008!

(and Luckymui are more than happy to have much time to develop new ideas and have rest! yeah! )
