Europa preserves memories. |
 |
Europa uses a journalistic
style, giving you an unobtrusive documentary of your wedding and reception
as the story unfolds. |
 |
Europa can provide both
Short Form and Long Form videos, or a mixture of both forms, depending upon
your taste and budget. |
 |
Europa offers high end
package quality and service at moderate prices. |
 |
Europa offers additional
video coverage at modest prices, sometimes included (depending upon the
package selected) at no additional cost. |
 |
Europa attends wedding
rehearsals, no exceptions. This helps eliminate surprises on your
wedding day and guarantees a better shoot. |
 | Europa uses wireless mikes
(at least two), one placed on the groom and the other to capture the
readings and music. |
 |
Europa sends at least two
manned 3-chip digital cameras to each wedding ceremony, even if two cameras
are not included in the selected video package. Of course, more
footage from the second camera is used in editing packages calling for two
cameras, but even our one camera packages contain some second camera footage
in the final edit. This resolves issues where the main camera position
might be limited in some way. |
 |
Europa always discusses
lighting issues with the bride prior to the ceremony. When a lighting
issue arises, it is usually at the reception where the bride and groom have
some control over the level of the house lights. Although ambient
lighting is usually preferable, Europa always carries on-camera lights for
those occasions when supplemental lighting is necessary. |
 |
Europa will not be outdone
in turn-around time; usually your video will be edited within 12-16 weeks. |
 |
Europa videographers, male
and female alike, always come appropriately dressed for the occasion. |
 |
Europa collects 1/3 of the
cost of the package at the time of the signing of the contract. This
guarantees your date and is non-refundable unless the date can be
re-booked. An additional 1/3 is due on or before the date of the
wedding rehearsal. The final 1/3 (plus sales taxes) are due at the
time of editing. |
 |
Europa considers a well
written contract, containing everything the bride and groom wants contained
therein, to be an important part of the process. Europa will spend
whatever time is necessary to satisfy its customers in this regard. |
 |
Europa has provided a demo
on its web site but welcomes and even encourages viewing by the
bride/groom/mothers/et al of full length edited wedding DVDs to assure
all parties of the professionalism of Europa's work product. Europa
will spend whatever amount of time is required to gain your
confidence. |
 |
Europa uses high quality wireless mikes
to assure excellent audio quality. |
 |
Europa uses Sony 3-chip
digital cameras to assure high visual quality, and sends two manned cameras
to each wedding ceremony to assure the best available camera positions,
angles and composition. |
 |
Europa uses the Final Cut
Pro 5 editing program with masterful taste to produce the finest quality
production possible. |
 |
Europa does everything it
can to properly prepare for your wedding day. It has been said that
Europa's videographers are seldom seen eating at receptions but are
constantly busy looking for and filming everything the bride and groom would
want to see when they relive this once in a lifetime event. |
 |
Europa pledges to deliver
the highest quality product, meeting every requirement of its customers, for
the most reasonable prices available.
