Archivist Comment: Restoring sites from the historic record, we often come upon compelling untold stories related to the business and people involved. It appears that for years this site was a victim of Google's search results that returned links to pornographic films and other reputation damaging posts. Attempting to contact Google was futile. A "reputation management service" was engaged. Though eventually the results were reverted, real damage was done. Toxic Google results can cause permanent harm - more info. That may have contributed to why this site was abandoned. The good news is that Ray Roman's main site rayromanfilms.com is thriving and unaffected.

RAY’S STORY


Widely considered one of the top 10 wedding and event filmmakers on the planet. People from all over the world recognize Ray Roman for his incredibly cinematic wedding films. If you have ever seen one of these moving and inspirational films, then you know just why. What you may not know is that Ray actually comes from a SWAT team background — and although it may seem like an unlikely starting point for an acclaimed wedding filmmaker, it actually provided him with many of the guiding principles that helped form his illustrious career.

It’s not easy to get a humble man like Ray to talk about himself. But if you do manage this feat, you might learn that Ray credits his attention to detail and his constant pursuit of perfection as his two most important characteristics as a filmmaker — two core values that are vital for filmmakers, and values that were no doubt reinforced during his time on the SWAT team. Now, Ray has won a whole slew of international awards and accolades for his wedding films, including the most prestigious wedding film award in the world (in consecutive years!). Over the past several years, Ray has taken his craft to the next level by becoming an engaging and effective instructor – and his international workshops are praised by professionals from all across the globe.

Ray truly believes that most filmmakers are just a few fundamentals away from becoming great artists. This is where his passion to be a great educator stems — from his knowledge that he can actually make a difference and help people improve their craft.

Ray’s achievements are too numerous to list, but here are some of the really cool things he’s done and won:

  • Twice being named one of the top 25 hottest and most influential studios on the planet by EventDV Magazine
  • Repeat winner of WEVA Creative Excellence award for short-form wedding films
  • Exclusive cinematographer for countless NBA and NFL players, high powered CEO’s and royal weddings

Rue Beri 4-2019
And I will also add my praise to Ray Roman's Capture Cinematic Weddings seminars.

In 2015 I had just started to become more serious about my photography and took one of Ray Roman seminars. The most important take aways were his pointers on lighting, always one of my weaker knowledge areas. I also was intrigues with his use of unmanned cameras for more coverage. I had never considered trying that. This past summer I attended a destination wedding in Maui with my partner. As a wedding gift I had offered to take more casual pictures of the wedding since she already had another professional photographer lined up for the formal wedding pics. We were part of a large group of the bride and groom's friends from college. To save costs we decided to find several condo rentals in Lahaina that we could share. We were able to find three two bedroom condos that could accommodate the twelve of us . Thank goodness for sofas that pull out for extra queen sized beds in each of the rentals. At a number of the wedding events I utilized many of the skills I had been perfecting over the last few years from that Ray Roman's seminar. Some of my unmanned cameras resulted in a  number of fabulous, yet most unexpected shots. So thanks Ray Roman for your sharing of your knowledge and experience.

A few of us stayed an extra week at the one of Lahaina rentals where we were able to experience more of what Maui offers its visitors. The early sunrise trip to the top of Haleakala was spectacular. It is truly a unique place. Perhaps we will return to Lahaina again for another destination wedding- our own!

Capture Cinematic Weddings Seminar Review

 NICK MINORE 02/22/2015 / https://photofocus.com

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending Capture Cinematic Weddings with Ray Roman in Fort Lauderdale. The in-depth seminar took place at a hotel just steps from the beach.

We learned how to maximize picture quality with proper exposure settings, understanding how to master the speeches and get perfect audio every time, and how to price & position our work to gain high-profile clients. It was great watching some of Rays favorite wedding films to help illustrate everything we were learning.

The next day, Rays master class put everything we learned in the classroom into practice. Watching Ray shoot was a real treat. He showed us how-to lighting for bridal prep, then explain how he frames his shots to maximize the amount of content you can capture in a short amount of time.

After bridal prep, Ray took us through the first look. He explained his 2-3 camera setup and how to rely on unmanned cameras for more coverage. He broke out the DJI Ronin and created a few dramatic shots of the model walking. After we watched him work, the attendees got a chance to command the set and try a few shots while being coached along by Ray.

I enjoyed the workshop. Not only do you get a chance to learn from the best, but you can watch Ray work and ask questions. He gave great feedback once he handed the camera to the attendees to shoot.

From there, we went through a typical ceremony. It was great watching Ray set up lights, taking what would have been unusable footage and making it look amazing. We went over camera placement, where at least one camera always has a shot, making the edit so much easier.

In the studio, we went through an edit and went over tips for editing and assembling clips. Ray talked about sound and time-shifting using the speeches to carry the viewer through the video. Once the edit was complete, we went through adding the finishing touches by applying a look to the video and adding sharpness.

The in-depth seminar and master class don’t have to be taken together. I opted to take both classes because I love Rays work and wanted a chance to spend some time with him. Some of the topics are covered both days for people who only attend one or the other. The best part about attending both was learning everything the first day, then putting it into practice during the master class.

Overall, Ray and his team produced a terrific workshop covering everything youd expect when shooting a wedding. I always love to hear stories from the set and Ray sure had a bunch. Theres nothing worse than all the lights going off minutes before the bride is set to walk down the aisle. I highly encourage you to check out his workshops at http://capturecinematicweddings.com/.
