Richard it is.

thank you very much for the time and thought put into your response. you certainly sound seasoned in the subject. i will look into “softening” my clips (that word alone sounds like the effect i was trying to achieve with some of my ceremony shots). as far as the external source of the audio from this wedding is concerned, is that it remains trapped inside a cassette tape medium, so im not sure yet wether it is quality enough to use or not (i have not yet converted it to digital). i understand the copyright feature remains an issue. thank you for helping me along the way. you have cleared up some important conflicts for me. thanks richard – Erl G

thanks hewitt,
i used a 3-4 year old canon optura 200mc single chip dv cam to shoot the wedding, my buddy used a newer panasonic 3chip yet still a standard consumer model.

i certainly dont want to cheese it up with nonstop lame effects everywhere. i was sort of thinking along the lines of some kind of super subtle softener or something to make the ceremony clips a bit more ummph. maybe it doesnt need it. what do you normally do with the audio? im sure you do it differently each time, but should i leave the original string quartet from the wedding, or purchase the individual wedding songs that they played. just some thoughts. thanks again Hewitt, for responding.
