Coda Podcast - For Wedding Filmmakers

Show Notes

It’s rare to find a wedding filmmaker who’s doing something truly different - but that’s exactly what Alex from Mole Hill Media is achieving. He describes his style as “marmite,” drawing inspiration from romcom teasers and reality TV rather than traditional wedding filmmaking.

In this conversation, we dive into his unique approach: how he discreetly mics up couples for the entire day using hidden lavs, why spontaneous guest interviews add a new layer of depth to a couple’s story, and the process of shaping over 1TB of footage and audio into Netflix-style documentary films.
