Bollywood Wedding Video Trailer: Chareeka and Nicholas

Just 12 days after our 4-day wedding event in Dubai, we were able to deliver this video with a total of 500gb of High Definition data. We managed to finish our first Indian wedding video trailer under Studio K, which now counts as my career’s 9th Indian wedding shoot so far. Best part is this one was all indoor, so no sun burn for me!!! 😀

Multiple day / venue:
Day 1: Villa in Jumeriah (9pm to 1am)
Day 2: Surprise shower party at Atlantis Hotel (4pm to 2am)
Day 3: Chareeka’s residence for the Mindhi (11am to 4pm) / Raffles Hotel for the PaRTy! (7pm to 3am)
Day 4: World Trade Center for the Wedding Ceremony (6am to 4pm) / Qamardeen Hotel for the Wine & Cheese Reception (7pm to 1am)

Noticed the timings on Day 3 and Day 4? 🙂 Yes, that is how crazy we are…CRAZY PASSIONATE with our craft.

Enjoy the video and don’t forget to leave a comment 🙂

Stop motion was inspired by Philip Bloom. Took me 3 hours at Atlantis Hotel to figure out how it was done.

Gave the client a slideshow also.

Bollywood Wedding: Chareeka and Nicholas

One of my top 5 Indian weddings.

From August 3 to 6 of non-stop celebration.

Thursday and Friday’s shoot were bloody. I started the day at 10am and ended the following day at 2am. We went home to back up the memory cards and charge the batteries. I felt like I was dumped with a cold bucket of water when I saw the time and realized it’s already 430am. Call time is 6am! Just took a quick one hour power nap, and went off again. MUST.NOT.DISAPPOINT.THE.COUPLE.

Schedule was hectic to say the least, and we never even had a chance to eat breakfast and lunch. I ended up eating at home around 4pm that day just in time to charge the batteries and back up the memory cards for another shoot at 6pm that same day. After the wedding, I hibernated for one whole day.

Here’s a few photo selection from that multi-day event.
