MiniDV-style digital file, interlaced, 62 minutes
Challenge
The ceremony section was stable but soft, while the reception had low light, noise, and fast camera moves. A single global setting would have over-smoothed speeches and damaged motion during dancing.
Restoration approach
The workflow separated the project into ceremony and reception sections. The ceremony received deinterlace, detail recovery, and gentle color repair. The reception used stronger noise control and selective stabilization only where it improved watchability.
Result
The deliverable plan included a sharing MP4 and optional ProRes master for later family editing. The quote was based on runtime, source complexity, and the number of distinct scene types.
