Covering all of Northern Michigan

This is a video you will only have the option to do once in your lifetime.  Thanks to the learning channel, they have become very popular with brides.  We produce one of these for just about every wedding that we videotape.  We will also produce one for you even if we are not taping your wedding.

This Presentation consists of interviews of how they met, their first date etc.  It also includes professionally shot footage of the bride and groom walking on the beach during a sunset, kissing on the rocks etc.  The video is then edited and shown at your rehearsal dinner or reception.  You will have so much fun doing this video, it's a moment that you'll cherish forever.  Relatives and guests love these videos.  Chances are, your closests relatives don't even know where your 1st date was, until they see the video.

You've seen them at most weddings, videos that play on monitors or projectors that display photos of the bride and groom as they grew up, and their dating years together.  The presentations are set to music with titles and special effects.  A great way to entertain your guests and share your most precious moments at one of the biggest events of your life.

At Bay Area Video, we specialize in these types of productions called photo montages.  We have produced 1000's of these for all different types of events from anniversarys, birthday partys, weddings and tributes.  Our style and quality rivals those of the national television networks.  We can produce one of these videos as part of our memories in motion video package, which includes our equipment and technication to show it.

We also can produce a video for you even if you are not using our videography services or if you live anywhere in the country.

How do we put these together?

Our videos look like they were meant for a national television broadcast.  We bring your photos to life by adding motion to all photos with moving backgrounds as seen on major cable news shows.  The entire process is digital and are mastered to dvd giving you outstanding quality.  We always get raving reviews on how our videos where the hit of the party.  Showing your video can be done a number of ways.

1-  You can show it to everyone using an LCD projector with screen which we provide in our package or can be rented.  This allows you to show it to everyone at once. 

2-  Another option, one of my favorites is the loop.  You can set up a monitor in the corner or by the guest book as guests arrive to the reception.  A dvd player is hooked up, and you set the dvd to repeat so that it will play in a loop all night long and guests can watch when they want to. 

Ideas for showing your video . . .

RECEPTION 
The most popular is the reception.  We usually show ours just after the cake cutting.  This gives you time to get the cake served and allows the guest a dessert while watching the video.

REHEARSAL DINNER
Another great option is the rehearsal dinner.  What an excellent way to have a conversation piece.  You can use this as a source of entertainment for your dinner.

GIFT OPENING OR BRUNCH
Gift opening and Brunch the following day.  You can also show it the next day at your gift opening gathering.  Or if you are planning a brunch, this also works great.

Keep in mind that we also rent all the equipment you need to show your videos. 
(Projectors, screens, monitors, and audio equipment.)
