Part 2: 3 Top Tips for using Final Cut Pro Wedding Templates
Templates are fantastic for saving time and money on your wedding videos, but there are some mistakes editors often make when working with stock assets. Check out our top tips for using FCP templates for your wedding videography.
Fit the Wedding Theme
It can cost a lot of money to ensure a wedding is everything the happy couple wants for their special day. Most weddings will have themes, from full-on period or movie-style weddings to more specific color themes and motifs.
You must consider the wedding theme when choosing a template for your video. If the event is full of bright colors, replicate that in your compositions; if the couple uses a more traditional tone, find templates that work for the style.
Don’t Ever do the Effects
With so many cool effects templates available, it can be tempting to go all out on your video editing. So when editing a wedding video or highlights reel, always remember the end goal – creating a lasting memory of a happy day.
Keep your compositions simple; the photos and clips should be the video’s primary focus. Only use effects, titles and flourishes when it adds to the story you are telling.
Use Music for Emotional Cues
Music is a big part of any celebration, and weddings have several points when the music is vital. Therefore, whatever track is chosen for your wedding video, it is essential to ensure the template and animation fit, but remember, you’re not making a music video.
Sometimes you’ll have several suggested tracks, and mixing them can be a great way of changing the style and pace of your compositions between, for example, the ceremony and the reception. If you’re looking for wedding music, Motion Array has tons of fantastic songs available royalty-free.
Whether you’re working as a wedding videographer or looking to edit your own wedding video, Final Cut Pro Wedding Templates are a fantastic option. Not only can templates help you save time, but they can also help you create a stunning composition in just a few clicks, even if you’re starting your editing journey.
