Since 1985, East Cheshire Video, has been undertaking video productions both for industry and the General Public.

Hazel McAllister B.A. (Hons) C.I.E. is one of very few female videographers working in the North West of England. Using the very latest digital technology, backed up with an in-house nonlinear editing facility.

Video is about atmosphere, emotion, laughter and the wind carrying away the confetti.....

You try to take in everything that is going on around you, but your eyes and ears miss so much, because things move so fast.

Before the ceremony as guests arrive, during the ceremony and afterwards as the party begins, the unique medium of professional video captures forever the sounds and sights of your wedding day. In years to come, your children and grandchildren will be able to look back on this slice of family history.

A wedding takes months and months of preparation - to the tiniest of details. You can relive this lovely day, time and time again with East Cheshire Video.

East Cheshire Video has almost twenty years experience and expertise, not just to record your wedding day on video, but to create a complete video production, a naturl, uncontrived moving reflection of the experiences and excitement you feel. As the day unfolds, the camera captures the atmosphere and action without being intrusive. The final production is then edited using the latest technology ready to output as DVD or on VHS tape.

Video coverage usuallycommences at the bride's home and continue through the service to the reception.

All productions are mastered on a 3-chip broadcast standard camera in Hi-Fi stereo, and is supplied on either DVD or VHS tape in a library box. Using the latest video technology - your production starts with a professional title sequence which can incorporate a growing up series of photographs.

The fly-on-the-wall style video production starts at your home, as final preparations are made an hour or so before the service. Half an hour before the service we record the groom and his attendants, as well your guests arriving in a lovely, casual, informal way. Filming continues as the bridesmaids arrive, shortly followed by the bride, and continues through the ceremony (if permitted), recording you rejoining your families to sign the registers. We film after the ceremony, and into the reception, completing your production. To do this, we offer two different sorts of video coverage on DVD or tape.

Standard Coverage starts at the bride's house and continues through the ceremony and reception to the point where the meal commences. An average finished standard production lasts approximately 60-80 minutes.

Full Coverage starts as does standard, but includes the speeches where a sensitive radio microphone ensures superb sound quality. The final length obviously depends on the duration of the ceremony and speeches, but usually extends to around 120 minutes. On the day, you only have one set of eyes and ears to take in the experience. In addition to the 'main story' we aim to sensitively film the action which surrounds you. We won't simply duplicate your stills album, instead we make a film which complements the stills - they work together to give you a more complete picture.

Both coverages include a brief 'edited highlights' section at the end of the tape, where the day is beautifully compressed into a short sequence - ideal to show relatives or friends who don't have time to watch the whole production. This broadcast-style sequence, which includes fades, wipes and other appropriate transitions can also include a scrolling credit including the names of your bridal party.
