November 28th - A New Trailer

Yikes! I can't believe I haven't posted in so long. It's been so busy with editing and shooting here that I must have lost track of the blog!

Anyways, I wanted to quick stop in and share a recent trailer I finished. Check it out below!

September 17th - Paint the Dress!

A photographer I work with occasionally, Karen Jennings, approached me about a month ago with a Dress Trashing idea. She really wanted to trash her 80's era wedding dress with super large shoulder pads. You can imagine how excited I was to ruin that thing! Anyways I came up with the idea to use paint as our "trashing" method and invited my good friend Mark Gardner to help me brainstorm ideas shoot some photos. Karen wanted to focus on the fact that she has been married 15 years, has three kids, and a whole ton of stress. Mark and I decided to use this at the central story of our production. I think it turned out really well and I had a great time working with my buddy Mark all day. Karen was a blast as well, I still can't believe she let us cover her (and the rest of her family!) with paint from head to toe!

The video I put together is a trailer for the final video. I really wanted to get something together fast for various reasons, including some I will share shortly. Check it out and let me know what you think via the "comments" button below.

BTW... be sure to check out Mark's awesome pictures on his blog!

August 31st - Something A Little Different

Earlier this month I had the pleasure of shooting Jim and Angela's wedding in downtown Allentown. Usually I'm driving down to Philadelphia to shoot weddings so it was a pleasure working in my own backyard for a change. Every location was less than 20 minutes from my house! My friend, Karen Jennings (their photographer), introduced the couple to me a few months back and they became one of my first Aubert Films projects. Karen and I are trying to convince Angela that trashing her dress would be really cool... hint hint!

Anyways, the "Something A Little Different" is their trailer. I'm usually more of the documentary kind of guy who uses lots of ambient audio in my pieces. I am not a huge fan of the very dramatic, slower paced edits that some are so famous for. This wedding, however, stuck me quite differently than most. Usually I gloss over things that were said during the day since I'm concentrating on shooting the best video ever. During the ceremony, the priest was giving his homily and his words really stood out to me. He was talking about love. Almost every pastor or priest talks about love during weddings but the way this priest delivered his speech and the things he said really stood out to me. I stopped paying attention to what was going on with my camera (don't worry Jim and Angela!) and I listened to what he had to say. After he finished I knew that I wanted to do something special with what he said so I used his talk about love in this trailer.

"What is Love"

July 13th - Trash The Dress

What can I say? The Trash The Dress event in Atlantic City was a blast! There were 11 brides trashing their dresses that day along with 50 plus photographers shooting stills. I got to work with some of the best in the industry including; John Michael Cooper, Mark Eric, The Wiebners, and Jason Domingues. Below the pictures, check out the video I put together for the event.

The Wiebners snapped some photos of me shooting during the event:

June 14th - The Iron Videographer

Wow! Long time since my last post! I've just been so busy the blog sometimes gets pushed to the side. I've been to NYC 3 times in the last 2 weeks and that has really been stressful! Ahhh!

Anyways, the Iron Videographer Competition hosted by LIVA and the 4 Ever Group was this past Tuesday night. My buddy Glen Elliott and I faced off for four hours editing a highlight. There were three judges, a coordinator, a photographer, and a recent bride. In a 2-1 vote... Glen Elliott won! Congrats to my buddy.
One thing I would like to point out though is that the judge who voted for me was the BRIDE! So any bride who is ready this should know... I will produce a video you'll like!! Haha, anyways, congrats again to Glen and hopefully next year we can do a rematch.

Check out my edit below - ***Warning*** I only had 3.5 hours do to this and is not an example of my usual work! With that said... Enjoy!

May 29th - The Iron Videographers

The 4 Ever Group is running a national contest this year called "The Iron Videographer." It's based off the popular TV show, The Iron Chef. Great show! I like the Japanese version better myself, but lets not digress. The way the contest works is that 8 contestants are chosen from around the country. 4 regional competitions take place, then 2 finals, and at Video 08 the final match is held. I've been fortunate enough to be chosen as one of the 8 contestants! Thanks to everyone who voted for me!
My good friend Glen Elliott was also chosen. He's a really good editor and I think It's going to be a really tough match.

In anticipation of this event, Glen and I got together and made a fun video promoting the event.

*Disclaimer*

Please don't take anything we say seriously. We're just goofing off. This was also not a sanctioned promotion, just a fun video we did together.

May 20th - Wedding at a Castle

Yesterday's weddings was a blast! The couple, Laura and Anthony, were a pleasure to work with, very passionate, and in love. The photographers were also a great group. John Molar and his daughter Rebecca were real fun all day. The band was really good too! One of the best I've worked with in a while!

What was the coolest part about yesterday's wedding was that it was at a Castle! Yes... A Castle! Fonthill Castle in Doylestown, PA was built at the turn of the century and is still a sight to see! The architechture really added something to the video.

Anyways! Here's the trailer from the wedding. Feel free to share this with friends and family:

May 7th - Bethlehem Steel Montage

Part of my recent project with the Dietrick Group was a montage of photographs taken at Bethlehem Steel to some opera by Pavarotti. The photos were powerful, and so was the music. I decided to make the montage as simple as possible so as not to distract the viewer from the beauty of the pictures themselves. I chose to do simple fade-in and fade-outs matching them to the music. It was shown, along with nearly a dozen other videos I had produced, at the Rave Theater in Center Valley, PA. My client from the Dietrick Group told me that several members of the audience who had worked at Bethlehem Steel before it was closed were crying by the end of the montage. This was a real ego boost! That kind of reaction, even from a video so simple, is what makes this job so great.
Below is the montage:

March 23rd - Steven Kancianic

I just wanted to post about an old friend of mine, Steven Kancianic. He's a great photographer who lives in Virgina along with his wife, Rachel. A little over a month ago I completed a short video to show off Steve in action along with some of his great work. Below are some pictures from Steve and also the video I did for him. If any of you live in or around the state of Virgina, please don't hesitate contacting Steve by clicking here.
