In todays episode I’ll be chatting to a pioneer of wedding filmmaking, Philip White.

6 years ago Philip released his online course that single handedly changed the landscape of British wedding filmmaking.

His stripped down minimal approach became the foundation on which many of todays best wedding filmmakers built their businesses. 

During this chat we talk about how Philip initially developed this ground breaking style and how his approach has now changed through his constant need to reinvent himself for creative fulfilment.

In this episode we will be speaking with Elena & Sofia also known as The Costa Sisters.

Over a decade ago the Costa Sister burst into the wedding industry with their trademark high paced and energetic filmmaking style. More in common with music videos than any traditional wedding films, Elena and Sofia soon carved out a niche attracting likeminded couples with a taste for the unconventional.

During this chat we discuss how from early on they were able to target their ideal clients, filtering out people that wouldn’t be 100% on board with their vision for wedding films and also the methods employed to be able to capture and craft their trademark films.

After years of building a super successful wedding photography business, Laura and Pete took the step over into wedding filmmaking creating spectacular films that hone in on their core values of what a wedding day experience should be, fun, laughter and complete and utter joy.

Their rise as filmmakers was stratospheric racking up an incredible 3 National wins at The Wedding Industry Awards, a run that was only ended when they accepted the invitation to become judges of the event itself.

In this episode we cover many topics including how they turnaround 1 minute Instagram Reels the day after the wedding and some great insight into what they are looking for as judges for TWIA.

Recent winner of South West Wedding Videographer of the year at the Wedding Industry Awards, Becky Maidment from Thompson Wedding Films creates vibrant films full of life that focus in on the true emotions of a wedding day, continuously contrasting sentimental moments with elements of honour and fun.

In this chat we take a deep dive into her deliverables which includes a long form video that can best be described as a feature film and doc-edit hybrid. 

Becky elevates the emotional impact of these films by including long takes with clever use of ambient sound, ensuring nothing of value to the couple is left on the cutting room floor.
