That would be absolutely hilarious if it wasn't so sad for the newlywed couple. Hope they got some great stills to make up for it.

That is sad but they should have done their homework.

And isn't the divorce rate something like 50%? Who knows, time may tell that this shabby shooter saved the couple a painful reminder.

...Because it's fine if we videographers get a bad rep, right? :lol:

But holy crap! I didn't know someone could shoot that bad on purpose! Then again you could say he didn't, because apparently he was off shooting another wedding at the same time! uh-oh...

The part where the studio crew started skewing the image and throwing it out of focus was pretty hilarious.

Edit: They should send him to this place: http://www.youtube.com​/watch?v=7R0MhIKUIXA (external link)

I acquired an expensive camera so I can hang out in forums, annoy wedding photographers during formals and look down on P&S users... all the while telling people it's the photographer, not the camera.

My friend was hired to shoot video at a wedding in NJ. On the way there he got pinched by the fuzz for not paying $500 in tickets. He spent the night in the pokey, missed the wedding, and had his rep ruined all over the hood, his biz went caput.
BTW, it was a chasidic wedding with 50k guests.

We had my wife's friend videotape our wedding. He was in college trying to get into film school, and endlessly talked about his incredible skill.

I kid you not, I was a better videographer at five years old. It was jumpy, he was zooming in and out, couldn't settle on one subject for more than a few seconds...it was awful. We honestly laugh at it every time we watch it or think about it. We had an AMAZING photographer, so it doesn't bother us that we don't have a video of the ceremony.

PS - He never was accepted into film school.
