Summary

WEDDING FILM PROJECT BRIEF Hello, I am looking for an experienced video editor to create an elegant, cinematic, and emotional wedding film for my daughter and her fiancé . I already have a completed PowerPoint presentation containing approximately 163 photographs, Hebrew text slides, and the planned order of the story. I am not looking for instructions or assistance with editing software. The editor must take full responsibility for producing and delivering the completed film. The final result should look like a professionally produced cinematic wedding film—not like a PowerPoint presentation converted into a basic slideshow. STRICT ONE-WEEK DEADLINE The complete project must be finished within one week. The editor will have a maximum of seven calendar days from receiving all the project materials to deliver the final approved wedding film. Proposed schedule: Days 1–2: Cinematic opening, avatar, Hebrew voice and visual-style test Days 3–4: First complete draft Days 5–6: Corrections and revisions Day 7: Final delivery of all required files The editor must: Begin work immediately Be available for communication and revisions throughout the week Deliver previews and corrections promptly Complete all editing, avatar production, licensing, sound design and final exports within the seven-day period Confirm in writing that the deadline can be met before accepting the project The editor should not accept the project unless they can guarantee completion within seven calendar days. Delays involving software, rendering, licensing, subcontractors or unavailable assets will remain the editor’s responsibility. PROJECT CONCEPT The film tells the story of two children who grew up separately, without knowing that one day their lives would come together. It consists of two main parts: Bride and Groom growing up separately Bride and Groom meeting and building their life together The film should begin like a real movie, with a cinematic opening, licensed video footage, professional sound design, an AI avatar welcoming the guests, and Hebrew narration. CINEMATIC OPENING The film must not begin immediately with a traditional photo slideshow. The opening should feel like the beginning of a real cinematic film and include: A realistic AI avatar welcoming the wedding guests Hebrew narration Licensed cinematic stock footage or original video material Elegant opening titles Professional sound design Smooth transitions from cinematic footage into the family photographs Possible visual ideas include: An old film projector starting A family album opening A hand turning album pages Childhood objects and memories Calendar pages or changing seasons representing the passage of time Two separate roads or paths Two paths gradually coming together Warm wedding lights or flowers An empty wedding hall or illuminated aisle A golden-hour landscape Other visual metaphors representing two separate life stories becoming one The opening should create curiosity and emotion without becoming exaggerated, theatrical or kitschy. All external footage, graphics, fonts, sound effects and visual elements must be legally licensed. AI AVATAR AND HEBREW NARRATION The opening should feature a realistic and elegant female AI avatar who welcomes the guests in Hebrew. The avatar (specific israeli actress should look: Warm and welcoming Natural and realistic Elegant and appropriate for a wedding Emotionally expressive without exaggeration The avatar’s Hebrew pronunciation, facial expressions and lip movements must be accurate and properly synchronized. The avatar may initially appear on screen and speak directly to the wedding guests. The same voice should then continue as background narration while cinematic footage, titles and selected photographs appear. VISUAL STYLE The overall style should be: Cinematic Elegant Romantic Luxurious Warm Personal Emotionally engaging Suitable for projection at a wedding Preferred colours and visual elements: Cream Ivory Champagne Soft gold Warm cinematic lighting Elegant wedding details Subtle film texture where appropriate Please use: Smooth and tasteful transitions Gentle movement within still photographs Subtle zooming and panning Professional colour correction Consistent visual styling Elegant titles Natural synchronization with the music Professional audio transitions Appropriate cinematic sequences between major sections Hebrew is displayed correctly from right to left Letters and words are not reversed Punctuation appears in the correct position Existing line breaks are preserved The font is elegant and clearly readable The text remains on screen long enough to be read comfortably Titles are clearly visible when projected on a large screen The requested songs are: “I’m a Believer” — Smash Mouth “Ata Od Tegale Et Ha’Olam” (אתה עוד תגלה את העולם) — Gidi Gov “Lehishtatot Lifamim” (להשתטות לפעמים) — Gabi Shoshan “Count on Me” — Bruno Mars Before accepting the project, the editor must confirm in writing: Whether these exact recordings can be included Whether the editor will obtain and manage all required permissions Whether all licensing expenses are included in the quoted price Whether the film may legally be screened at the wedding venue Whether copies may be provided to the family Whether the film may be stored or shared through Google Drive or similar services Whether it may be uploaded privately or publicly to YouTube, Vimeo or social media Whether written evidence of the relevant licences can be provided upon request
