Just a quick note to let you know that you can find myself along with several other wedding services all on display at The Bridal Happy Hour, Sept 22. at the Conference Center on NAU campus. There will be lots of good food, door prizes, and fun. Check it out.

Every morning, a new battle is fought in a war waged just outside my front door. The following is an account of 7:00am, July 19th, 2009

7:00am, A Ben Cornelius Film

Before there was BCVid, there was Derek Turner. My love for video production all started here. You may remember the island reef job craze in March 2009. Derek gathered around 10-15hrs of film he’d shot from his travels all across the globe doing humanitarian work and I sat down to help him produce it. We arrived at this 60 second video. It was love at first sight. I’ve been a full time videographer ever since, and Derek continues his adventures at www.theworldbysea.com

It is with much pleasure that I introduce my latest product, Real Estate Video.  It seemed to me that realtors needed a better way to generate interest in their properties.  The bland still images or warped rotating camera effects of “virtual tours” seemed like poor impressions of the actual property.  Flagstaff, AZ homes are full of character.  It’s the history and personality of Flagstaff that makes them so appealing.  It’s the natural beauty of the surrounding Northern Arizona that makes residents so happy to own here.  With my Real Estate Videos, you get to know the home and understand it’s personality and character; the complete picture.  It is powerful marketing all captured with the thrill and beauty of cinema.  Let me introduce you to a little place in University Heights…

I am so excited for the latest addition to the collection of high definition tools I use.  Every once in a while, you come across some bit of technology that captures within you the thrill and wonderment of Christmas as a child.  Such is the case with my new HDV camcorder, the Canon XH A1.  I am blown away at how beautiful the images are.  It enables me to shoot with a cinematic feel that will give your wedding all the polish and power of silver screen film.  All of the vibrant color and clarity is captured in video like never before to give you the magic of your wedding day every time you push play.

Send me a message to see your wedding come alive on screen.

“Ben has an incredible eye for film and a great ear for music. He is a great visionary and has awesome ideas throughout the entire process.”

“Ben captured the most intimate and innate qualities of our wedding day in vivid detail. It is with our utmost pleasure to have worked with Ben. Thank you Ben for your artistic ability to bring our past emotions to life.”  Sincerely, Dustin and Kristin, April 25th, 2009

Another day’s work in the Flagstaff community connecting with an eclectic bunch of musicians, artists, and sound technicians.  I’m off to the recording studio to work on production for some fresh audio at bcvid.com.  The unhinged creative sessions at 116 are some of the most fun times you’ll ever have.  

Thanks to Mark Haughwout, a fellow film enthusiast and entrepreneur, for the constructive input for bcvid.com, and for some good memories on motorcycles while adventure riding in Northern Arizona (a huge passion of mine).  That flat tire on his brand new bike still cracks me up.  Where was my video camera then?  Have a look at his site MarkHaughwout.com
