The footage to gather
- The empty venue
- One setup decision
- The completed room before guests arrive
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a visual reel
Opening
Open with the most legible action rather than a long title card.
Middle
Frame the important detail for a vertical screen and keep text away from interface overlays.
Ending
Leave the result on screen long enough to understand.
Review it for event planners
Credit collaborators and separate the shown package from optional additions.
Ask yourself: Does the visual story remain clear with the sound off?
Watch it as if you were seeing it for the first time. If something is unclear, try a different cut or add the missing shot.
