Chrisley Maglanoc's 18th Birthday

Picture

We had the pleasure of capturing Chrisley's 18th birthday. Our day started off at the Maglanoc residence where Chrisley was gathered by her friends and family. Preperation began at 10:00AM. Photgrapher on site that day was Kevin Truong from Kevin Truong Photography. From there a party bus arrived and picked up Chrisley and the debutante court. Then they proceeded to the Sculpture garden in Cerritos for their photo shoot. Proceeding after that we all then headed to the Lighthouse in Downtown Long Beach. Let me tell you, the heat was hard to beat! It was scorching hot that you can tell everyone was just not having it. That didn't stop Chrisley, the court, Kevin and IV from what we had to do. Time spent in Downtown Long Beach was limited due to the Beautiful Hot sun that we have here burning down in the city of Long Beach and on everyone else. So we then headed to The Grand in Long Beach. Once we all got in and felt the cool Air conditioning, everyone started feeling better. Once inside, the court and Chrisley were rehearsing their cotillion, the parents were setting up and we were capturing every moment of it. The time came so fast that it was time for the grand entrance. The crowd was going wild during the entrance and you were able feel the energy. From then dinner was being served, a slide show was being showed and all the hard work the parents did was paying off. We witnessed Speeches, 18 candles, the main cotillion dance, special performances and special numbers. Even though it was held on a Sunday, that didn't stop everyone from getting their groove on the dance floor. Like any other event that we film, people have so much energy and use it on that dance floor. So many great and wonderful people showing off their dance moves. Everyone had a blast and so did Insite Visions. We would like to Thank Chrisley and and Chrisleys parents for allowing us to capture her birthday. Happy Birthday Chrisley.

Blessie + Paul

Paul and Blessie Tath provided INSITE VISIONS with an opportunity to take our Cinematography to another level. The Love Story was written by the newly weds, INSITE VISIONS just helped structure, direct, and polish up what they already had in mind. We filmed the Club Scene in February and followed up with the First Date Scene in early June; the video was edited and prepped prior to August 4, 2012 (the day of their wedding) in order for it to be included in their [Same Day Edit]. All of their friends and family made the day very fun filled and full of great memories. With Three minutes to spare, we were able to export and play this video on the projector for [Paul and Blessie Tath's] guests, Congratulations once again! Photograph taken by Aevent Photography.



Day of the wedding started for Blessie at the Double Tree hotel in Torrance, Ca. Paul's day started off at his residence. As usual, preperation began at their location and they were all gathered by their friends and family. Then we headed off to St. Philomena in Carson, Ca. There Blessie + Paul Tied the knot! Following the ceremony, the couple and the court headed off to their photo session before the reception. It was held in a park in Garden Grove. There the Groom, Bride and the court broke out of their comfort zone and just had a fun and goofy time. They were all filled with  jokes, laughter and you can just see the fun they were all having. The it was time to head down to Mon Cherri in Anaheim, Ca. The crowd were coming and the lines were getting longer and you can start to feel the energy. The doors opened promptly at 5, where each person that walked through the door had to take their photo with the Bride and Groom. They were then given a remembrance photo taken with the couple. The photography was was done by Kevin from Aevent Photography. Next thing you know the house was full and the introduction began. The crowd were cheering the court , Bride and Groom as they made their grand entrance. After speeches, dinner and 30 minutes that was taken away from us while we were working on a same day edit, it was time! Time for IV to put on a show that would constantly keep everyone on their toes and wanting more. You guessed it ,Same Day Edit! I wont go into to details about it, but you can go ahead and click on the video below to see how the production and day came together all on this video.

Giselle Fernandez's Quinceanera

Picture

Insite Visions had the pleasure of capturing Giselle's special day, her Quinceanera. It was a celebration which reflected her journey from being a child to a beautiful young woman. We were honored to film this wonderful occasion that started on a beautiful Saturday. Giselle and her family were very fun to work with. The day consisted of a preparation shoot at the residence of the Fernandez's. There, Giselle got all dolled up and was ready to get the event going.  We then proceeded to the church where they had her ceremony where she was gathered by her close family and friends. Not to mention the beautiful and awesome court to share the special day with. She was escorted by her lovely brother. Following the ceremony, We headed off to the Sculpture garden in Cerritos, CA. There she had her scheduled photo shoot done and we were there to capture the moments that took place. Then Giselle and her court headed off to Downtown Disney to spare some time, since they were ahead of schedule, which is time is always a factor for these types of events. As we got there, IV got stopped by Disney Security and said we cannot bring all of our tripods and film. But that did not stop us from getting the footage we need to help tell the story of Giselles day. We used trash cans, shelves, table tops, to get the shots we needed and to help stabilize our footage. From here time was ticking and the excitement was building up, so we headed to the Reception Hall at the Phoenix Club in Anaheim, CA. Wow what a huge and lovely setting and a place to hold her event. The place was packed and people started rolling in. Then the event started and lots of things were going on, such as Father daughter dance, speeches, speeches and more speeches. Then the dancing began. Everyone started dancing and you can feel the energy in the room. Like all other events we go to, people have so much energy and just dance dance and dance. We were glad to have made new friends and ecstatic about documenting there occasion. Insite Visions would like to Thank the Fernandez family!


Summer Barros' 18th Birthday

Summer Barros
Wow what another amazing Debut! First off, we want to Thank Summer and her parents for giving us the opportunity to capture their special event. The day started out at Cherry's Salon in West Covina, then it was off to the Sheraton Hotel in Cerritos, CA. We then went up to Summers Hotel Suite where she was surrounded by her wonderful court and photographer Leonardo Bagtas from Da Vinci Photography. Leo was such an amazing photographer to work with, very humble and easy going. But thats not it, With people occupying the lobby waiting to get in the ball room, guests were being served Lumpia and mini beef on a stick in order to have some time to mingle before the big show. Finally the doors opened up and wow, it looked like a true Princess Atmosphere and it was made to tailor Summer because she is a true Princess. The debut consisted of 18 Candles, Father daughter Dance which we think was one of the best parts. The dance started off slow, then re re remix, the Father and Daughter did their cool hip hop dance, then to close it off back to a simple slow dance. They even had a special number, (Singkil) it was a filipino dance that Summer performed very well and we were really surprised. The best part was why she decided to do the performance, its a dance where she has to walk through some bamboo and not get her feet caught in it. The meaning to it all was quoted by Summer  "Life is full of hard roads, one wrong step, can get you caught and can lead to some pain." We felt that was very inspiring! Other special events went on such as the 18 roses, speeches, special gifts from the parents, more speeches, dinner! Finally after all of that, it was time for everyone to burn off the calories they just consumed. Let me tell you , Summers friends and family had their dancing shoes on and danced the whole night away. We sure had a blast and had the honor of adding Summer and her family to our lives!. IV would like to Thank Summer Barros once again and wish her a Happy Birthday.

Carole Cuevas 18th Birthday

First off we would like to wish Carole a Happy 18th Birthday once again. Our event coverage started and ended at the Hilton Hotel in Universal City, Ca.  Preperation began at the hotel on the 14th floor overlooking Universal City Walk.  We then took a free shuttle ride to Universal City walked and towards the famous Universal Studios spinning globe at the front entrance where Alan Mallari from Alan Mallari Photography conducted his photo shoot. We then headed back to the Hilton and this is where the Party began.  From 18 roses, 18 candles  the main cotillion dance, and father daughter dance, the party just kept getting better. There were also special performances performed by Carole and Carole's Debutant court choreographed by Ricky Dulay. Insite also presented a photo montage created by Clyde to be shown right after dinner. Overall the celebration was a success especially when Carole was surrounded by her close friends and family that traveled many miles to join her in celebrating her 18th birthday.  IV would like to thank Carole and her wonderful parents for inviting us and letting us capture their daughters special day!

Blessie + Paul [Love Story]

Picture
August 4, 2012

Today we had the opportunity to spend the day with Paul + Blessie and their 2 lovely children. We spent a couple hours filming the lovely family at Manhattan Beach. This type of filming was more of a production type which was awesome. The family was so easy to work with and were just having a great time in this lovely California weather. The second production filming ended in Carson , Ca. at Club S.O.L. Here the lovely couple were gathered by there close friends and family in which were very patient and easy to direct. Time was a factor that night since we only had three hours to capture everything we needed to get. We did manage to get all the necessary footage we need that will be edited in post to present on their wedding day together with a Same Day Edit. We look forward to their wedding day in August and we can't wait to show you all the Love Story Music Video and the other Highlights as well.


Linda + Julio

What a way to start the New Year with our first wedding of 2012. We had the opportunity to share Julio + Linda's special day. There was two ceremonies, one in which was a traditional tea ceremony and the other, a western ceremony. The reception ended up at the Crown Plaza in Anaheim, Ca. With over 300 guests, a live band, photo booth courtesy of Brandon Wong Photography, the night was filled with family and friends ready to celebrate with the newlyweds. The lovely couple were very shy at first, but as the day went on they started to feel a little more relaxed and comfortable. It was a long day, but definitely worth it.  Once again from all of us at iNSiTE ViSiONS, Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Julio Ortega.

Lan + Tristan [Same Day Edit]

   Lan and Tristan Chang's Wedding was our third opportunity to spend the day with yet, another friendly and enjoyable couple.  The difference between this wedding and our previous events was that Lan and Tristan's Wedding consisted of the Traditional Chinese/Vietnamese Tea Ceremonies.  One was held at the Residence of the Bride as the other followed at the Residence of the groom.  Following the ceremony at the groom's house, a Western (Traditional) Ceremony was held in the backyard.  They transformed what would seem to be a normal backyard  into very intricate, almost Garden looking scenario.  The energy and emotions that were in the air at all the ceremonies acted almost like a breathe of fresh air, a metaphoric second wind that kept us full of energy; considering the fact that the previous night we were filming the Wedding of Nancy and Antonio Espinoza.  This was not the first time we held back to back events, although this was the first time that both events happened to be Weddings.  It is a blessing to be able to spend the day with people who have found that one special person in their lives that they want to walk the rest of life's road with.  
   For Lan and Tristan's Wedding we had the privilege to allow a friend, Mark Garma, to come along and fill in as a Videographer.  An additional videographer was necessary due to the fact that one of our Primary Cinematographers created a Same Day Edit.  [To be continued...]

Natalie Hernandez's Sweet 16 Masque

Picture
     For Natalie's Sweet 16 Masque, we returned to the Westridge Golf Club where we filmed one of our Affiliate's (A Blissful Affair) Birthday Bash.  We always enjoy working with Monique and her Husband Cesar.  They always seem to make any event fun and stress free.  David Esquire from Esquire Photography is their main photographer and he always seems to get the guests rattled up and excited to take photos, which makes it a whole late easier for us to capture footage of their random moments and expressions.  The event took place on July 1, 2011- this was the first time that we actually incorporated the Manfrotto 562BHDV-1 Fluid Head mono-pod.  The versatile run and gun style system was perfect for all of the fun and dynamic events that they had going at Natalie's Sweet 16.  Please visit our "Visions" tab at the top of the page to view the video.

Allison Ovid's 18th Birthday

    A Debut is a Filipino coming-of-age tradition that takes place when a young lady turns 18.  The Debutante (Birthday Celebrant) has a Cotillion Court which includes her escort along with 9 boys and 9 girls.  At the Debutante Ball, they perform a Grand Cotillion Waltz. Two traditions refer to her age, 18.  First is the 18 Roses Dance, during this dance, the debutante will dance with 18 men who will each offer her a rose.  The second tradition is the 18 Candle Ceremony, wherein 18 ladies will light 18 candles to resemble the 18 points of light that will guide her in her transition to womanhood.  
    On July 23, 2011 we had the opportunity to film Allison Ovid's Debut at The Reef restaurant in our hometown Long Beach, CA.  While we were filming her preparation at the Residence Inn,  her father jokingly asked us to start editing.  Since they were friends of ours, it didn't require us much thought before we decided to challenge our editor and attempt the Same Day Edit late in the game.  The day started at 10:00am at the salon and it was around 5:30pm when we started to look through the footage and surprisingly enough we were able to export the HD video just in time.  We surprised Allison with this Film at the    Reception following the traditional Slide Show her friend made displaying her life since birth.
