Atlantic View Sound & Vision

Atlantic View Sound & Vision is a small family-run Newbury company which specialises in still photography and videography, to a very high standard.

Our areas of interest and expertise include:

• Weddings
  • Still and video photography. Unlike those expensive professionals, who will arrive just as the ceremony ends, take 24 pictures, and then disappear off to another job, we will devote the whole day to your wedding. Starting the day at the bride's house, and ending the day after the cutting of the cake, we'll capture the final adjustments to the veil, the bride hopping into the Rolls, the speeches, and all the fun bits in between.
  
  
  
  • But have you ever thought you'd like to remember your day not just in prints, but in vision too? How about a DVD of the whole wedding process too? We use high-definition throughout, so if you've got one of those super big hi def tellies we can probably do business!
  
  
  
  • We like to get to know our clients before the big day, so, during several meet-ups before the day we can discuss all the nuances and any special requests you may have thought about.
  
  
  
• Other social events
  • Christenings, parties, granny's 80th birthday, her 60th anniversary? What about the little one's first school play? In fact, any happy get-together, and, again, in both still pictures and hi def video, and at the ultimate in expertise and quality.
  
  
  
• Commercial and product work
  • Whether you're selling a trinket on eBay, or publicising your new startup company, we can provide the visuals, right through from a handful of small pictures for the web up to your ten minute hi definition fully directed, produced and edited video. And for the small business owner, although we don't do it ourselves, we have excellent contacts in the business who can produce and create that perfectly stunning PowerPoint presentation.

  Prices
  We'll probably undercut anybody else for your social photography. As a very rough example, your wedding - all day, as described above - will be about 400 pounds. This doesn't include any prints - for print prices please see here.
  
  If you also want a video, well that rather depends on what you need in terms of output, for for example, a standard definition DVD (note - not high definition, but please see the next paragraph) will add about a further 150 pounds to the bill. For these prices, you can expect at least 250 photographs - both formal and those all-important candids - and something around about half an hour of video. The video is fully produced and edited, with professional titling and music.
  
  Regarding high definition video: at the time of writing (Summer 2008) the production of Blu-ray discs remains virtually impossible outside of 20th Century Fox and Warner Brothers! The format is too new and too expensive for small companies like Atlantic View to handle. We have, however, recently purchased the technology to enable us to produce full HD Blu-ray material on standard DVD discs (as opposed to BD discs). This format is limited to about 30 minutes of material, which is usually enough for a wedding, and we don't guarantee that the disc will be playable on any player other than a Sony PlayStation 3, which is what we use. You would of course, in addition, need to own a High Def television - preferably Full HD, as opposed to the frequently-seen "HD Ready" (which in our opinion isn't proper HD, because it's a reduced pixel count). You need 1920 by 1080 pixels, in other words. But if you can meet these requirements you're guaranteed a stunning HD wedding video!
