I am incredibly excited to announce a workshop that I will be co-hosting with EventDV top 25 honoree Konrad Czystowski of Fresh Sox! This will be an intense one day workshop on Same Day Edits held at The Holiday Inn in Dedham, Massachusetts from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Konrad will also offer an additional storytelling presentation to those attending the NPVA meeting (New England Professional Videographers Association) later that evening.
We will be sharing all of our ‘secrets’ on how to create amazing same day edit presentations that will wow your couples and their guests and increase your business. Both Konrad and myself book a lot of our weddings through the exposure that comes with the same day edit presentations. This workshop will appeal to anyone from seasoned wedding filmmakers to those who are brand new to the industry. You can create something truly special for your couples and their guests utilizing an efficient workflow combined with great teamwork and your individual artistic creativity. We will show you how to do this in a way that will ensure the cinema coverage is consistent throughout the whole day and nothing of importance is missed. Even if you aren’t interested in producing same day edits for weddings right now, you will learn new skills that will help you become a more creative filmmaker, a better storyteller and a more efficient editor.
We will break down the entire process and take you through our workflow starting with the early planning stages before the wedding to the premiere of the film on the big screen. We will cover advanced shooting and storytelling techniques to really make your same day edits have that “wow” effect. We will cover some of the differences in how we approach our films and how to get your feet wet without taking on too much at once. Nothing will be held back and all questions are welcome throughout the day.

Check out this same day edit from Christina + Mike’s Boston wedding that I filmed with Konrad last November. This film won the NPVA Gold Award for Best Wedding Highlight…
Here are some behind the scenes live reaction shots from our same day edits:
DISCLAIMER: Same day edits may lead to an increase in the number of weddings you book, excessive praise for your work, and overwhelming joy and happiness from your couples. You may also experience excessive hugging from your couples after you premiere your same day edits. Neither Fresh Sox or Jeff Brouillet Films will be held responsible for this or any of the other awesomeness that may result. :)

This past Tuesday evening I had the pleasure of giving a presentation on DSLR filmmaking to the Connecticut Professional Videographers Association. This coming Monday I’ll be doing the same at the New England Videographers Association (NPVA) meeting in Dedham, MA. I’ll be talking about many ways to make the most out of your camera equipment as well as some of the things we do to enhance the experience our couples have when they select us to film their wedding.

I have been blessed to be a part of some incredible experiences lately in an effort to better my skills and quench my thirst for knowledge in the world of wedding and event filmmaking. Last October I made a four hour drive each way to attend a workshop in Long Island, followed a couple weeks later by the three-day evolution experience with the StillMotion family in Ontario and most recently a three day “gathering” last week at IN[FOCUS] 2010 in Austin. Along the way I’ve met many new friends and gotten to know several of the world’s most talented wedding cinematographers. I sought out these opportunities with a goal to simply become better at what I do and came home with so much more then that. The knowledge I’ve gained and the friendships I’ve made are absolutely priceless and I’m looking forward to many more opportunities like this in the future.
