Well, I was a little dissapointed in this video, but perhaps that's because I am not the target audience for it. I was intrigued by the title which included "Art" in relation to camera technique. To me there is the craft of camera work and then there are a handful of artists. For an artist watch the work of "A" camera operator Peter Robertson on "Children of Men" or his amazing long steadicam shot on the beach in "Atonement". What this video is, however, is a journeyman approach to shooting a wedding using fairly clichéd and formulaic framing and camera movement, using affordable to free grip gear. At least half of the video described introductory camera basics such as focus, iris, etc. I guess I didn't read the description enough.
If you have never held a camera in your hands professionally, this video will probably afford you some useful tidbits. But if like me, you are already a working pro, this is a waste of time.
