    Question to Wedding Videographers.
    What elements do you include in the finished DVD you deliver to a client. Highlights, Ceremony, Photo Montage. Etc.
    I realize it will be different depending on the package the client has purchased so lets say your top of the line package.
    Also, what would be a reasonable turn around time for delivery?

    Thanks!

    A montage of the day, which will serve as the DVD autoplay movie. It might also be used as the DVD menu.

    The ceremony, first dance, candids, whatever you think captures the day in the style you can pull off. That’s up to you and the contract you agree with.

    Fast videographers turn around the montage as a Same Day Edit, or in the inbox on the next business day. Entire DVDs are done no quicker than two weeks and usually two months. Some take longer. Nightmare videographers can take a year.

    Thanks for the reply Rick!

    You suggested the montage as the auto play movie for the DVD.
    Do I understand you correctly as saying the montage begin upon inserting the DVD as apposed to going directly to the DVD menu set.
    Is this typical or a matter of taste.

    Thanks for your time Rick!
