Storytelling Wedding Cinematography
Filming weddings outside of Cyprus has been a dream and a goal that, through our tremendous willpower, has become a privilege that fills us with pride. A teaser trailer of our last OscarRocky work in Italy can be found here ... This time our dial of destiny has led us to Florence, in an adventure that we will never forget and that we will always praise.
The most difficult challenge is always what comes next, the unpredictable that always happens to test our limits, as always we did not hear a bell. Rocky is up, round 15 knockout, there is no force out there that can beat the motivated beast. An Oscar Rocky team that prevails against all odds. One of the toughest, but most successful SAMEDAYEDITS ever presented. A wedding coordinated by the fantastic team of "Weddings International" in enchanting Tuscany, at the epic and historic Abbey of Galgano, with a reception and second ceremony completed at the beautiful and popular Borgo Pietro Relais, Destination Call #25. Next.
When the beautiful world finds its meaning in a wedding film, which we shot with great pleasure. On the island of Spetses in Greece, a small but beautiful event took place. Even though we were filming weddings non-stop at the time of the shoot, this one was motivation above all else... worth every single effort from the first second to the last.....Weddings like this are what keep our energy for storytelling capturing higher than ever.
I would love to find words to describe this wedding, but I know that nothing can describe what this wedding means to us. An amazing church and venue and an adventure like no other to film and make it happen that we will always remember as one of our greatest stories in front of and behind the camera. The trailer we are showing here is a little different from our normal work. It's a real storytelling video that shows only a minimum of the event, but gets the maximum out of it...thank you for watching it
On the way to the airport, for the second time this year for another target work, we noticed that the gate at the airport was number 23 for us, coincidence? no, this was our 23rd work outside Cyprus. The effort of the trip, the sleepless and non-stop work was there, but the strength of our OscaRocky will and our motivation drove us all the way. A beautiful wedding that we will always remember
it's been ages since the last time, the truth is that it was the first moment of our entire Oscar journey when I said to myself that we might not be able to keep it up this time. The long hiatus since the last S.D.E. and the extremely short time we had to process after the ceremony faced us like an undefeated Drago(n). Imagine we started editing at 9:07pm and it was supposed to be done before 10pm. We finished it at 9:42pm. The couple made their entrance and we put that in right away and then the first dance right away. The eye of the tiger, the heart of Rocky, and the soul of VICTORY DID it AGAIN. Ladies and gentlemen, our LATEST SAMEDAYEDITED trailer. Thank you in advance for watching and supporting our work
We have been to so many weddings in our career, in Cyprus and outside, that my middle name is actually wedding... throughout our journey, it's hard to stay motivated with such a large number, but when a wedding like the one shown here crosses our path, I feel like we have been reborn to film and edit weddings. yes, this wedding is one of the few we would give our heart and soul and cameras to film over and over again. it was so special... i am honest
Higher love for what you do is the highest energy and the greatest drive. No matter how difficult the creation of a samedayedit, the challenge always awakens our unstoppable will to bring the best out of what could have been a failed video due to some technical problems, to a result that can be called a real winner in the very last millisecond of the deadline just before its presentation. Against all odds: knockout.
The first samedayedit of the year landed here and this flight went from absolute terror to the most amazing resurrection... What happened to the kings of the challenge? We left the church to get to the venue (4seasons) only to realize that we had left our camera bag with the most precious equipment outside the church (AgiaNapa).... We felt the cold adrenaline of absolute shock as the deadline for completing the samedayedit ran against us. Fortunately, the bag was found and our hair turned black again, our feet reappeared and the course of our lives turned into a very successful samedayedit without any damage and with a very creative approach
Ladies and gentlemen, our 17th destination call outside Cyprus is here. Taken on the island of Karpathos in Greece A wedding like no other. Against all odds, we once again managed to film like Rocky. This is the first trailer I have edited with my young daughter by my side and I am very proud of our winning result.
Before you click and play Have your tissues ready. The following video is rated E.E for Epic and Emotional. It is a samedayedit, which means that everything you see in it was filmed, edited and presented the same night. What makes this video so special is that it's from one of the most beautiful weddings in our entire careers. It was also shot under the most difficult of circumstances. There are no words to express my appreciation for the occasion, but I can proudly say that our favorite line. YO ROCKY WE DID IT . VIctorius was our way. Val and Stef, we thank you for your love. The best is yet to come
I knew this was going to be something special. Five Oscar men at a wedding is something you do not see every day. This is like all the stones in the infinity gauntlet to get an idea of what I am saying, or all the Dragonballs put together. Definitely one of the most anticipated weddings of the year and definitely the event that lived up to expectations. Fueled from start to finish by the strength of my Oscar team, this was the final SameDayEdit for the current season, and of course the added Rocking motivation was there... the heart of victory beating in every single frame, every single minute. Yo, Rocky, we did it again.
I truly believe that the Greek islands are the most beautiful place to have a wedding in every way. The landscape, the sea, the weather and the food and generally the combination of everything are the perfect elements to celebrate the most beautiful moments. Welcome to Spetses :)
Have you ever introduced yourself in a movie? I am sure you have, we have too, and we got our wish. Honestly, filming a wedding in such a great location was like a dream. When we got the call, I had to read our email 3-4 times to make sure it was not spam. As things progressed and we made our way there, every piece of our journey had a touch of magic. Every part of our adventure has a story to tell, but the most impressive and awesome thing about this wedding was not the venue, but the amazing couple, Lara and Bob, and their amazing personalities and hospitality. Their response to our samedayedit was one of the greatest rewards in our entire careers. We are so glad we captured this wedding, and even happier to have recorded this reaction live behind the scenes. Thrilled
Working outside Cyprus on destination work is definitely a journey I had to think but mostly believe was possible, an adventure through all aspects and an experience that only a book can describe. Sweet dreams are made of it, we have traveled the world and the wedding seas. Who am I to stop dreaming
A wedding in a mythical place in Tuscany? I repeat, a wedding in Tuscany? We were so excited when we received this request that we kept wondering if it was really true, which it was. Despite all odds, as this wedding was the most difficult task for us as we encountered way too many problems on the way to our destination, it was a complete success with the most amazing stories behind the scenes. A great experience with an amazing outcome. The samedayedit exceeded our highest expectations.
Whatever I try to say about this wedding will always be too weak to describe how we will feel about it. We already knew the family from a wedding we attended a year earlier, and coming back for Friederike and Ben's wedding was like a sacred mission. We arrived at the venue and were full of energy to achieve the best possible result. It was 3 days of magic without interruption. The wedding day Samedayedit was the highlight of course, but the moments we experienced we will remember forever. We will always be grateful for this trip.
Destination Weddings has always been a target, from the beginning with the same passion and purpose, but a Destination call in the midst of the pandemic after so many cancellations was a pleasant surprise. Ladies and gentlemen, our 21st destination call, this time again to Karpathos Island in Greece to a traditional Greek wedding. The entire trip was a wild ride and an extraordinary adventure from the first second to the last, and we should have a behind-the-scenes video up as soon as possible. Until then, enjoy this little taste of Kalliopi and Mina's wedding. Thank you so much for supporting our work. It means a lot to us 🙂 May the victory of Rocky be with you always
Filming a wedding on July 6 is always extra motivation. It's Sly Stallone's birthday and we always feel the eye of the tiger. Back to Germany for another epic story and another samedayedit for a great couple we will always hold in our hearts. This time the Oscar train arrived to work atthe Majestic Schloss Schwetzingen in Schwetzingen, Germany.
"Our greatest opportunities are found in times of greatest challenge." Ladies and gentlemen, our latest destination assignment, our 15th (at the time) call out of Cyprus. A wedding like no other we have ever filmed. A Same Day Edit that we will always remember for an infinite number of reasons Filmed with 3 videographers to get the best shot possible. Yo Rocky, we did it again, Victorius was the result. The best is yet to come
We knew the island of Rodhes, but we had never heard of Lindos. But once we were there, we fell in love with the place and we look forward to visiting again in the future. The request literally came in the middle of the night via phone call, and I hesitated to answer it because under the circumstances, it could have been spam. It was not, of course, and we could not escape the call of duty. A traditional Greek wedding in one of the most beautiful places in Greece. Lindos. A samedayedit, which once again turned out to be the highlight of the day
The journey to this wedding was a journey in itself, the long journey from Cyprus to Sylt, which we did not know, was the experience. The wedding was beautiful, but the funny thing for us was that the people there had never heard of us and did not know what a samedayedit was. One thing I remember is that we tried to film the famous lighthouse on the island right before the wedding day started. This was illegal and we did not realise it until a police officer came, but luckily for us, he told us to leave and did not call for backup or take us to the police station to deal with the situation. We returned to the wedding and we made it. The samedayedited trailer was so successful at the presentation that all the guests were talking about us and cheering us on like modern day champions. It was a great story.
Earlier this year, we said we would no longer deliver trailers on the same day. A few days later, we got this call ... the universe had conspired again and all roads led to Germany for THE wedding and challenge of the year. Imported, edited and presented just before the first dance Ladies and gentlemen, our extraordinary mission is accomplished and now it's here! Johanna & Michiel same day trailer
When I say that I have waited all my life for this wedding.......is a LIE! I did not expect this at all, to be honest! I have always wanted to do projects abroad! A few years ago a foreign project for me would have been anything outside my village, maybe the next city or the city next to the next city, but in 2015 OMG! filmed in 2 countries (actually continents) ceremony at Splendido Hotel in beautiful Portofino/Italy and party at amazing Casa Loma in Toronto/Canada, The Ultimate Journey! Yooo Rocky We did it! Thank you so much for supporting our work! BEST will still be around, because we will always have the courage to pursue it!
Sly Stallone once said, "When you find the right components in your life, the right people to fit you, you feel invincible, and that is exactly what happened here! I feel honored and blessed to film this. In my entire career, I have never felt this way...the most beautiful moment in my Oscar years. Rocky Spirit has done it again! The right people, the right timing, the right place and the right reasons! I am delighted to present this trailer straight from the furnaces of fabulous magic! Thank you all in advance for checking out my work. The best is yet to come, and DISTANCE will always be the only destination.
The most beautiful things in life are not just things. They are people and places, memories and images. They are feelings and moments, smiles and laughter. And here we are again, enchanted and blessed to share one of our most beautiful moments. Yo Rocky we made it!
Our first foreign visit of the year is now here. The groom's preparations are in Hull, the bride's preparations are in Birmingham, and the reception is at the Hilton Metropole. Ladies and gentlemen, this is it! The cinematic teaser trailer from Becky and George's beautiful wedding day.
Our very first call to a destination. The wedding call that started our journey to a destination, the amazing chapter with the most incredible behind the scenes stories. the samedayedit that created excitement during the presentation. what can I say, it was a dream to film weddings outside of Cyprus and the first call was the great beginning. I was so excited about this wedding at the time that when I had to book the flights, I booked completely wrong dates only to realise 10 minutes before departure that I was wrong. What could have been a disaster turned out to be the best success at the time. When we arrived, there was only one flight left at the airport, and we had no choice but to wait for it. We literally did not sleep and reached the wedding literally at the last moment. We went through the toughest struggle, but in the end and after the extremely successful samedayedit was worth every humangus effort. I remember how tired I was on the way back to the hotel and that until the next day I could not believe that it was real.
Call this a samedayedit, because it is. For this wedding we were back in the church of Agia Napa. It is well known how much we love this church, that we get an extra motivation as soon as we enter it. Bocceli music is not something we personally like, but this was the request and we could not say no. It was another challenge and once again the mix with our footage was successful against all expectations :)A great wedding PS : Rocky's nickname is "The Italian Stallion," which is due to his Italian-American heritage. Now it becomes clear why Italian music gets in our OscaRocky way
The difficulty in creating a samedayedited video is not that you need to achieve the goal of delivery in such a short time, that is the easiest part. The real challenge is collecting the best moments, combining them, and delivering something that exceeds expectations. Having done samedayedits for more than a decade, I can say that the motivation is not only there, it rises like Rocky on Victorius Mountain. I love my Oscar team. Thanks in advance for watching
Have your handkerchiefs ready! This is certainly, if not the most touching, then one of the most touching editing trailers we have ever made! Against all odds and despite many technical problems along the way, it's a miracle that we finished this trailer without stress and faster than ever before, and the fact that we never gave up on the road to success took on a new meaning for me! I feel like this is also something different than the many others. Here it is! Our latest SDE trailer as presented before the bridal dance! Alexia and Christopher thank you for your moments and ''Yo, Rocky Oscar team WE DID IT again''! Thank you all for watching! (
There could be no better way to end 2017 and begin 2018. A majestic wedding like no other. A New Year's Eve event like never before! Get your tissues ready, because this story will bring tears to your eyes... and smiles to your face. One of the most unique and special stories we have had the pleasure of capturing on a good and magical day like this... Yo Rocky, we did it. Marianna + Andreas, you are outstanding! Happy and blessed new year to all. Thanks so much for watching!
Against all odds and difficult circumstances, samedayedit with a backstory that will give you a volcano of stress when you find out how it was made and in how long it took to be made, here it is ... One of our favorite pieces in 2022 of madness and weddings. Another challenge from which we emerged victorious, having absorbed all the energy we put into the ring (of Rocky) to make it a successful reality
The following trailer, cut on the same day and shown just before the couples' first dance, was rated E for Emotional Content and B for Beautiful True Love Moments across the board. The bride walking down the isle to the groom is one of the most emotional scenes we have ever captured on camera. Their reaction is priceless
Filming true moments of love is always a privilege and an honor! In this trailer cut on this day, presented just before the first dance, we did it again! Get ready for an emotional and beautiful journey from the first second to the last. Thank you so much for watching! The best is yet to come. Yo, Rocky we did it
When I first met Foula and Constantinos to talk to them about filming their wedding, I immediately sensed that these two were special and that their day would be something extraordinary - and it was! A few years later we all met again for the sequel, the baptism of their beautiful baby boy Orestis, and the magic was not only back, but everything became even more enchanted and emotional. ps: Sometime later, the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), UK, asked us for footage of this baptism so they could show a real baptism in a documentary series they were filming.
I love true love moments, I love feelings and emotions in motion. I love when a couple has a love story to tell, but most of all I admire the great love and bond between father and bride. Ever since my own daughter stepped into my crazy Oscar life, that has been my ultimate motivation. We embarked on this wedding ready to overcome all sorts of adversity. Our stunning bride really wanted us to create her samedayedit, so she literally based her wedding date on our availability. The key to success was there
What makes this same-day edit so special for us is the behind-the-scenes motivation. When we arrived at the wedding, we found that there were many people and many couples whose weddings we had been to before, and that warm welcome was more than enough to add to the magic. Thanks for watching
I love choosing music for our samedayedited trailers, but for this one I searched for 4 hours and found nothing. Then we drove to the wedding, filmed all the way to the couple's entrance and realized we were still searching non-stop. Literally 1 hour before the presentation, the Golden Buzzer track was found and the mission was not aborted and we did not give up. Despite the huge challenge, the magic of creation came rolling in and a successful samedayedit was presented on time. A beautiful wedding with beautiful people mixed into our favorite church of all time and one of our favorite venues can be found here. Thank you for watching 🙂
2022 is the year of the greatest challenge in our careers. Every weekend something happens that raises the bar even higher. The backstory of this sameday edit could have been the most stressful experience for a videographer, but it was not for us and it came out fabulous. A beautiful couple with a beautiful wedding with all the elements a camera could ever want.
a couple who wanted a samedayedit so badly that the universe came together to grant them their own wish... of course, if they had not booked our favorite church, priest and sgartilia for their allamata music performance, this video would most likely have been canceled from our end, as our schedule was exploding with pressure and energy drinkers at the time! You know the famous quote: when you want something bad enough, the universe finds the way, and so the OscarRocky Force pulled it off with flying colors and then literally drove sleepless to the airport for a new wedding coverage 936km away
One of the most beautiful weddings of the current season, which we had the greatest pleasure to capture... a real joy for the photographer/cinematographer, a samedayedit in the style we love. Weddings and people like the ones you can see here are what drive us to continue our victorious OscaRocky's journey
