Engagement / Prenuptial Film
Like many movies or series, there is a prequel. This film is what we plan it to be - actual engagement, adventure, reenactment or a last reminiscence of the fun memories before you tie the knot. Use this film as 'Save the Date' or play it during the reception.

An Engagement Film is a separate filming day prior to your wedding. Thus is a very good opportunity to get to know you and empower you to feel comfortable in front of the camera.

I have several themes to choose from: Cityscape, Mountainscape and Seascape.

Videography
The Weddings of Real People with authentic smiles, gestures and reactions. A burst of laughter, a sudden tear, a moment of emotion - all shall be captured and tell the tale of the one True Love! Your wedding is your first day of forever surrounded by family, friends and your favourite pets. Adventscape understands this and thus, our priority to capture.

However, your film should also showcase the non-living that makeup your wedding. Your venues, rings, scenery and those odd moments that happened on your wedding. These shall be showcased in the best cinematography possible for you to remember where it all began.

Live Streaming
Helping the NSW Government fight Covid-19. Live Streaming is the best way to keep our Love Ones safe at the comfort of their homes but at the same time witness every minute of your story unfold!

Technology is amazing nowadays that you'll be able to locally watch an event unfold. We have a worldwide audience, that no matter where they are, they can be a witness and be a part of the big day.

We are currently working on inviting guests in our live streams. This allows them to be part of the speeches / toasts!

Same Day Edit Film / S.D.E.
A Same Day Edit Film is a Magical Experience.

Ask couples how they felt as they watch their stories unfold in front of their eyes right at their wedding! Asks guests how they felt as they saw themselves on film on the same day as the wedding! Have the Same Day Edit Film upload the next day for everyone to watch a beautiful summary of your wedding.

If you're interested but feeling unsure, what the 'CLIENT REACTION' on this site to find out how couples felt as they watch a Same Day Edit Film.

Legacy Film
Highlight films are very fun to watch. It's short, exciting, consumable and showcases the best cinematography while narrating your unique love story. It's truly amazing.

But what if it's too short for your liking?

Then you might like our Legacy Film. It's a highlight film 2-3 times longer - thus, it's 2-3 times amazing and breathtaking! We will pack this film with all the moments, hugs, cries, laughter, emotion and kisses so you will never ever forget every minute of your day. Once you finish watching, you won't watch anything else anymore.

Drone at Long Reef

Sunrise Perimeter

 Long Reef is one of my frequent places to shoot sunrise seascape photography.  Either I position myself on top of the headland or go downhill towards the waters.  But its not only me, there are also others around.  This is one busy reserve.  There are joggers, kite flyers, windsurfers and rock fishermen in the area.  Since I go here before sunrise, there are less people around.  I can freely frame my shot without distractions.

As a photographer, I find this place interesting.  I was thinking that if I could shoot it in a different perspective, then I'll go for it.  Well, that day came.  Just last month (December 2014) I bought myself a quadcopter.  I'm thinking that it will give a different perspective to my landscapes. I constantly practice my flying whenever time and wind permits.  Taking videos & photos of nearby vicinity is a great idea!  That saturday, the wind forecast was virtually windless, so I pushed forward.
I came here with my drone just before sunrise.  I was thinking the best light would be after sunrise so that you have enough light for the gopro.  I immediately went on top of the headland and observed the wind speed.  Its just a calm breeze and I know that my drone would be fine.

I flew around the top of the headland.  From there I managed to fly to about 250km towards the Tasman sea then my video signal starts to break.  I'm using a cloverleaf antenna (BlueBeam).  They said that its a high quality antenna but it just breaks near the 300m mark.  Now I'm inclided to buy the helical antenna.  My FPV system has diversity so I can upgrade my other antenna (currently a whip) to a helical antenna.

This is the first time I flew using my FPV.  It's liberating.  I could finally see a different perspective of Long Reef.  I'm right that you need to look at Long Reef in a different angle.  With an FPV, controlling the drone is much easier because the left, right, up and down are corresponding on the joysticks.  I can't wait to view everthing on my computer.

I flew at the edge of Long Reef.  I would like to flew further but my video signal breaks.  I should stop being lazy and just go further down the headland so I can cover more ground.  I flew at the steeper side of the headland (very few vegetation) because I can see more drama there.  The texture of the orange-ish rocks and the steep side makes you feel like flying against the wall.

Please enjoy the video below:




I don't know about how other quadcopter pilots encounter people but the folks there are friendly.  I talked and met a few people, particularly Harris (who also owns a DJI Phantom) and "sonofcuth" who took this nice of photo me and my quadcopter.  There are also some casual conversation with joggers and passers by.
