Raminder + Manav // Same day edit

Raminder’s father sadly went into hospital at 3 am the morning of the wedding.  Amazingly he made it to the ceremony.  The brides brother spoke of the fact his father cannot communicate but had tears in his eyes on the day, which communicated everything.  I thought using this speech in the same day edit might have been a bit much but wanted to convey the story of this very brave family.

As usual this same day edit was extremely stressful and the film was ready just in time for it’s 10pm showing.  Complications with actually finding somewhere to work made matters worse and I ended up booking a room in the hotel to do my editing in.  I ended up with half an hour actual editing time. No time for colour correction or grading- hence the nasty video-like tungsten cast in the first clips.

The Dolly and spinning transitions are between pre-wedding events that took place simultaneously in Hale and Wolverhampton.
