Hey guys, I am Thomas Brown and I live and breath wedding film-making (OK, that's an exaggeration, I breath air). In this video I give you a little info about me and a lot of info about what you'll learn in this course. If you want some additional info about me I have been filming weddings for about 7 years now and filming corporate events for 8 years. I did go to film school (undergrad & grad school) but to be honest I've learned most of what I know about filming weddings on the job and taking courses just like this one.
Pre-production is so important for any type of filmmaking (or creative projects in general). Most importantly it ensures that you and your clients are on the same page and during the actual wedding day you and your team will know exactly what to expect.
What are the characteristic of Hollywood films and how can we master these techniques to improve our wedding filmmaking abilities?
In this class I give you the why for the frame rates I choose for my wedding footage.
The most important video gear that helps us make our wedding films.
The most important audio gear that helps us make our wedding films.
While I had a another module dedicated to our most important video gear in this course I show you every single thing that I take to film a wedding, how everything is organized, and the bags I carry all my gear in.
One of the most important shots you will get during the wedding day is during the bridal prep. In this class I not only break down what I shoot but I teach you how to be a master observer.
Building a team isn't always easy. In this class I show you how I work with my second shooters and the type of shots I teach them to get to add value to my wedding film.
The details matter! In this class I teach you how you can get great ceremony details.

I hope you were able to get value from this course!
I know you are all excited to use all of the techniques that you've learned and that is why I created 3 class projects/drills that you can literally do any where so that you can sharpen your skills.
I look forward to seeing your completed projects. I will provide feedback as much as I can but please feel free to leave feedback on each others work as well.
For those of you that have already started filming weddings if you would like to upload your work for myself and the class to review please feel free to do so as well.
I am so excited for your new journey as a wedding filmmaker!
As wedding filmmakers we have one of the most important roles during a client's wedding. We are tasked with capturing some of the most important memories of their lives.
This course is for video creators new to filming weddings and wedding photographers that want to add wedding filmmaking to their portfolio.
There are so many different elements to what we do from pre-production, to client management, and of course filming. My goal is to teach you not only how to organize your day but also how to be a master observer so that your wedding film is filled with amazing memories for your client.
I’ve seen so many courses out there that are geared towards mid-level wedding filmmakers to help them land luxury weddings. But what about the video creators that have yet to film an event? Well, this is the course for them/you! I didn’t hold anything back, from the gear I use to film an event, to the type of b-roll shots I get, and all of the strategies I use for filming the couple's big day from start to finish.
