Last summer Austin Wedding Planners asked us to do an audition video for WeTV. The big catch was we had to plan, tape, edit, and post the video on the web all in about 7 hours.  The taping went fast and Kathie, Vivian and the group had a lot of fun doing the acting. The editing had to be done at break neck speed but Brian got it all finished and delivered by the 5:00 deadline. Here is the finished audition video:

By the way Austin Wedding Planners made the cut and filmed two episodes that aired on WeTV in December. Congrats!

As this year draws to a close, I’d like to reflect back on what a great year 2008 has been. 2008 brought some big changes for us:

  • We started a blog!
  • Our crew grew to six employees! This enables us to do so much more with the added benefit of fresh minds developing new ideas
  • I was married September 27 so I had a chance to go through the process that I was already too familiar with! By the way, my wife is a pretty good editor so you may just want her to edit your wedding video :)
  • We made some great connections with other wedding vendors, including joining the Carriage House group!
  • We’ve been heavily involved with starting up the Greater Austin Professional Videographers Association (GAPVA). Our hope is that this organization will be valuable to both budding and seasoned videographers as well as raise awareness of the benefits of videography.
  • We started Capital Wedding Video in response to an increased demand for more economical wedding videography services. Check it out!

We hope that 2008 was a blessing and that 2009 brings joy and success to you and yours.
