The highlight and the full film are what you sell. The short pieces are what keeps the couple, and everyone they tag, looking at your work while the long edits are being made. We cut two kinds.

Questions videographers ask

What is the difference between a wedding teaser and a highlight film?

A teaser is a 60-second trailer built from the key moments; a highlight film is a 4–10 minute story of the day. The teaser announces the film, the highlight is the film couples share and rewatch.

How much does a wedding teaser edit cost?

A teaser starts at $110 and a rough cut at $99. Both can go in the same order as a highlight or full film, with one brief for everything.

Can I order just a teaser without a highlight?

Yes. Each package can be ordered on its own. Adding one to a highlight order is efficient, because the footage, brief and grade are already prepared for it.
