Here’s the conclusion to our behind-the-scenes look at the making of our HEROES spoof!

You’ll also get to see the premiere of the short film at Hieu & Elaine’s wedding reception. For those of you getting married next year, be sure to watch PART 1 to see the entire experience of making your very own movie for your wedding day. Enjoy!

Debbie & George | A Beautiful Love

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

New York Street at CBS Studios. That’s where Debbie & George told me where their wedding reception would be. Being a movie and TV geek, I was looking forward to this one for a long time. This was the same street Jerry Seinfeld and many others have walked and performed on! And when we arrived “on set” it didn’t disappoint. Decorated with a red carpet, a movie theater marquee with the words “At Last”, and large prints of the star couple lining up the walkway… this was truly an Oscar worthy event!

For their wedding day, Debbie (a talented singer & actress) recorded a special song as a gift for her soon-to-be husband. When I heard the song, I knew it would be perfect for their Same Day Edit. Intimate, moving and beautiful.

Erin & Justin | “50 First Dances”

Monday, August 10th, 2009

When Erin & Justin asked me to do a spoof of “50 First Dates”, I was all smiles. It happens to be one of my favorite romantic comedies. Beyond the cool twist on the boy meets girl story, what I love about the movie is the memorable characters. And Erin and Justin had the perfect cast to fill in those roles. We had a great time making their version of the film and their wedding day was also just as cool! If you’ve seen my messages on twitter, then you know we got to shoot their post-ceremony photos at Costco (stopping at the warehouse store is a big event tradition of Erin and Justin’s friends). Yup, these guys were all about FUN.

Check out the trailer below and be sure to watch the full version in HD (which includes their photomontage and Same Day Edit).

Azusa & Bryan | When Everything Comes Together

Wednesday, August 5th, 2009

You’re a falling star
You’re a getaway car
You’re the line in the sand when I go too far
You’re a swimming pool on an August day
And you’re the perfect thing to say

Perfect words for a perfect day. Check out Azusa and Bryan’s Same Day Edit video and see what I mean.
