Rosa & Daniel Cinematic Wedding Trailer | “This is it”

Dewi — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 15:59:47 +0000

We can still remember how we met Daniel and Rosa the first time and had a lot of fun just chatting with them. It was very obvious that they are so much in love and how they are very nice and kind people. But what really made us look forward to their wedding day the most is the michael jackson dance performance that Daniel was going to perform on the reception night, and he did… awesomely…

On top of that, we were entertained by the amount of emotion that was flowing during the prep, ceremony and reception with all the vows, speeches that were said. Basically this couple are definitely a couple that is loved by many people and we are so blessed to be able to get to know them and capture their moments.

We think the song by Michael Jackson - This is it really suits their trailer and I would not have it any other way. It is not the typical song that we would edit a trailer to, but in this case, how can u not?

congrats once again daniel and rosa!

Mick & Jacqueline Wedding Same Day Edit (Paper Cranes)

Dewi — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 23:50:37 +0000

Mick and Jacquie’s wedding was all about family and the culture that they have within the laos and the vietnamese community. The day went so smoothly and we were loving every minutes capturing the moments of this two love birds. Jacquie is a very sweet and kind lady and we can see that by how she’s so caring for other people including us despite of her being the queen of the day. She is also the only bride that I’ve come across that did her own make-up. Not only that, she also did her mum’s make-up! very very cool…!

The highlight of the day was definitely the emotional cry out during the tea ceremony at jacquie’s house and also some magical shots during the location shoots. Everything just falls into place with this couple!

We want to thank you mick and jacquie for their trust in us and also for Jenny! who we met on two weddings in a row now and she always takes care of us by giving us food and drinks every time she can

Tack + Hoe Ping Prewedding Film Teaser “Melbourne with love”

Dewi — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 00:32:59 +0000

We met Tack and Hoe Ping last year where they shared their love story with us in a nice Melbourne Cafe. It was very obvious to us that Tack is a very sweet guy where girls all over the world will probably go “aaaawwww……….” while watching their prewedding film. Hoe Ping is also very caring. She likes to make handmade stuff to give to Tack as pressies.

We had so much fun shooting in Melbourne with them. It was definitely a smooth sailing shoot and we can’t wait to go back and do another one cause its such a beautiful city!

The highlight of this film for us is the tram station scene. watch out for it!

Adrian & Karina Wedding Video Trailer (Double Surprises and a lot of Dancing)

Dewi — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 03:08:02 +0000

What can I say about Adrian and Karina… First things first, thank you is in order to Trish for recommending them to us. We are so blessed to be able to capture the day of this beautiful couple. We only met Adrian and Karina once a few weeks before their wedding where we just “clicked” straight away. Adrian is a very fun and down to earth guy where Karina is pretty much the same… we knew that their wedding would be exciting but they just completely thrown out our expectation..

Their wedding is all about fun and dancing. They are both very talented in dancing and so are a lot of their guests. We were like watching “so you think you can dance” on their dance party.

Apart from dancing, the highlight of their day was the double surprises. It was the funniest thing when each of them emailed us about their own surprises to one another and asking us to keep it secret from “each” of them… This also happens to all of the people/vendors at the wedding where we had a bit of laugh with. Then after that, came the gorgeous first dance, funky bridal dance, the thriller dance and the fun games where karina squish her own father’s bum…

All in all, brilliant wedding, brilliant couple and we certainly hope that they would be get all the happiness in the world… cause they deserve it.

PS: you guys have to check out the “Initial D” car that Adrian has. Ferry was staring in awe seeing how real that car was…. shame we couldn’t get them to drive it around on the day cause Adrian didn’t have the key with him!

Benny & Lala Wedding SDE (Same Day Edit)

Dewi — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 06:24:09 +0000

RING SHOTS…. I’m a big fan of creative ring shots… We’ve done a lot of twirling, glowing, focus pulling and a lot of other “ings” and it is always a challenge to find a unique ring shots to do in each wedding that we do. However, this time I think we have nailed it! Dustin came up with the idea and everything just flew from there. Its a killer ring shot this one and I’m so happy with it.

Now back to the whole wedding (sorry!) Benny and Lala is our friend. Benny is a rather unique guy with very strong mindset of what he is as a person and how he perceive things. Lala is a very soft and loving woman who (in my opinion) completes Benny or rather “neutralizes” Benny

I just love it when an SDE has a lot of intimate moments in it. Moments that mean a lot to the people who understands it the most (the couple and their family). I love the shots of the father looking at lala getting ready. For your information we didn’t set up that shot. We try to never direct our couples on the day since we want them to have their own experience and cherish it. Also the doggy scenes were a laugh cracker at the reception as everyone was watching it. I also love how the dad was holding her hand so closely as they were about to walk the isle. These moments are the most precious and I have to say that I’m so proud to have them captured by our team… even though we can take all of the nice and grand shots that we can get, the meaningful shots are worth ten times as much.

We are so happy for them and it was definitely a great wedding last Sunday and we wish them the very best for the rest of their lives together.

The church was held in Manly and reception at the great Watersedge, The Rocks.

Thanks for watching

Paper Cranes Wedding Showcase 2010

Dewi — Sat, 22 May 2010 12:53:58 +0000

Finally, its finished… we have put a lot of effort and time onto making this showreel. its definitely one of the toughest edit to date since we have a high bar to be raised with the success of our previous showcase in 2009. The previous showcase won 2 awards in local (AVPA) and international (WEVA) so we are very much hoping to win more this time if we can.

The biggest challenge in editing this showcase is indeed… choosing the clips.. we have soooo many wonderful clips that we really love from our previous clients. Most of them actually had a special meaning to us and while I was editing the piece, it brought back a lot of memories to me about each of the couples that we have filmed.

4 1/2 minutes is definitely very very short for this showcase. We have tried our best to put in clips from every weddings that we shot, but we do apologize if there’s any clip that couldn’t make it in because of space issue. We love all of our work, no doubt about that and trust me when I say, its very very hard to make some decisions of which clips go in and out….

So, again, please allow us to give our biggest thank you to all of our clients that have trusted us in capturing their moments. Its a big thing for us and we hope that it goes the same to you all.

Well, we hope that all of you will enjoy this showcase as much as we do and we hope for another great year with a lot of great moments to be put on the next year’s showcase

Just one last thing, this showcase will not be possible without each of our team members so I guess its the perfect time to acknowledge all of them:

John & Thao SDE (Same Day Edit) by Paper Cranes

Dewi — Sat, 15 May 2010 23:52:07 +0000

John & Thao had a very beautiful day yesterday with their friends and family. Everything was so smooth and exciting

I just love it when a same day edit just blows you away.

When you would watch it over and over again and it just gets you everytime with its millions of memories, emotion and excitements. It doesn’t even look like a same day edit anymore.. while it is still done in the same day.. edited in 3 hours. Its just a priceless thing to watch not only on the wedding day, but during any other day as well. Amazing isn’t it..

Jennifer & Ejohn Cinematic Trailer (salt -> sugar)

Dewi — Tue, 04 May 2010 03:01:52 +0000

Jen & ejohn is a very lovely couple. They were kind enough to fly us to Melbourne to capture their wedding day. I could tell that Jen was very nervous on the wedding day while Ejohn was just very excited to get married to her. What a lovely couple they are.. You can see how they had a ton of fun on their wedding day through this trailer. The highlight of the day for me was their MC… the MC was their friend and he definitely rocked the house with his jokes and games. Very well recommended!

Please Enjoy!
