A Volunteer Videographer?
Side-by-Side Comparison
Here's some true-to-life advice on how to get the best out of your volunteer videographer.

Have them tape the event using video tapes that you have purchased because without a contract, whoever owns the tapes owns what's on the tapes.

Give him/her a thank-you card, A $25 coffee house gift card and $50 cash. If real money doesn't change hands then neither will an edited video. Show them you understand their needs and that their work will mean the world to you and your offspring. Say it with words, say it with coffee (for those late nights at the editing bench) and say it with money. If you do, you will get a video before your child is walking.


Shooting the video is far more glamourous than editing it. Editing takes a long time...and there's really no such thing as "spare time." It takes an enormous amount of time. CLICK HERE to view prices for editing-only.
