Show Notes
In this episode of Beyond the Awards, we sit down with Jason from Afterglow Wedding Films to explore his journey from a heavily micromanaged corporate photography job to becoming one of Scotland's most innovative wedding videographers.
Jason shares how a pre-lockdown epiphany gave him the freedom to break the traditional wedding video mold, moving away from slow-motion orchestral edits to inject genuine energy and personality into his work.
We dive deep into the logistics and creative thrills of crafting highly unique, themed wedding films, including his award-nominated Wes Anderson teaser, an immersive The Office edit, and his upcoming Trainspotting and Halloween horror-themed projects.
Jason discusses how he balances heavily directed cinematic aesthetics with preserving authentic, comfortable moments for the couple, and why the Festival left him feeling inspired for the season ahead.
If you’ve ever wondered how to break the traditional mold and inject true personality into your creative work, this conversation is for you.
