High Definition Footage
Atlanta Wedding Productions offers the option to shoot your custom wedding production in true High Definition (HD). This significantly increases the picture quality and clarity of your video. While not all shows are currently shot in HD, they soon will be. As you may have heard, in early 2009 all analog transmissions of television will cease to operate in the United States. Translation? If you don't have a High Definition TV (or an upgraded digital tuner), you won't be able to receive television broadcasts.
So why should you consider it?
"Essentially, because you may be future-proofing your wedding video. Imagine watching your parents' wedding video now. Do you even still have a VCR to play a VHS tape? Just as this format has all but become obsolete, Standard Definition might someday be as well. If you have your wedding video shot in Standard Definition, you won't be able to take advantage of the higher resolution and detail."

Tech Talk: High Definition
Standard definition refers to the "legacy" old video viewing, storage, and transmission systems introduced in the 1950s. This is represented by a grid of 720x480 pixels on the TV screen, otherwise known as 4:3 format.
High Definition Video (HDV) is shot at 1920x1080 pixels - greatly increasing both the vertical and horizontal resolution of the image.
With more than twice the pixels (or lines) of resolution than standard definition offers, Hi-Def must be screened on a HDTV (High Definition TV) for viewers to appreciate the difference in quality.
High definition also requires a Blu-ray DVD player (such as the Sony Playstation 3) to replace your existing DVD player. These players are available at most major electronics stores nationwide.
