# Mixed-camera weddings: a mirrorless body, a phone and a drone, edited as one film

Most weddings are not shot on one camera. The ceremony runs on a mirrorless body, the speeches on a cinema camera on sticks, the drone covers the venue, an action camera rides the dance floor and your phone catches the getting-ready window light. Every device records a slightly different picture, sometimes at a different frame rate. The couple should never feel those switches. Upload every file to one WeddingEditor project, and its AI editing uses the clips from each device side by side, working toward a consistent finished look so the result plays as one wedding film.

## What a mixed-camera wedding becomes

Different devices give you different strengths. The edit uses each one where it helps the story.

- **The phone clip that saved a moment**: When the main body was mid card change and only your phone caught the father's toast reaction, that clip can still earn its place. A meaningful moment on a smaller sensor usually matters more than a polished shot of nothing in particular.
- **Aerials and gimbal moves where they add something**: Drone and gimbal material can establish the venue, bridge two parts of the day or give the viewer room to breathe, without turning the film into a venue reel.
- **One picture, not five**: Daylight portraits from one body and candlelit dinner clips from another sit in the same film. WeddingEditor works toward a consistent finished look so the viewer is not pulled out by each device change.
- **Slow motion used for a reason**: High frame rate clips from one camera can slow an entrance or a veil in the wind, while real-time clips from another keep speeches and conversations natural.

## What mixed-camera wedding editing means

A mixed-camera wedding is one where the footage comes from more than one kind of device: different brands, different sensors, a phone next to a mirrorless body, a drone, an action camera, sometimes a borrowed backup body that ran a different picture profile. Even a solo shooter can end up with four or five device types from one day. Editing it means two jobs at once. The editorial job is choosing the best version of each moment from whatever device caught it. The visual job is making clips that were recorded differently feel like they belong to the same film. WeddingEditor treats the wedding as the project, not each device: you upload everything to one place, and the AI editing chooses the strongest material for the story and works toward one consistent finished look.

Not the same as: Not the same as multi-shooter editing, which is about several people covering the day and choosing between their perspectives; see the page on editing footage from multiple shooters for that.

## How to hand off a mixed-camera wedding

1. **One project for the whole day** Create the wedding project and pick a Highlight Reel or a Social Teaser. Every device feeds the same project.
2. **Upload every device's files as they are** Mirrorless, cinema, phone, drone and action camera clips go in together. You do not need to rename files, sort them by camera, make proxies or convert anything first.
3. **Say what matters, not which camera** In the preferences, name the people and moments that must be in the film and anything to leave out, such as a phone clip with a stranger's face or the test shots from the drone launch.
4. **Start processing and watch** After checkout, the finished film typically arrives 24 to 72 hours later in your project, with up to two revision rounds if you want a different balance.

## Why mixed footage is not a problem to solve first

- **Built for real production mixes**: Footage from cinema and mirrorless cameras, phones, drones, action cameras, gimbals and static ceremony cameras can sit in one wedding project.
- **One consistent finished look**: The film works toward a consistent finished look across cameras and lighting, rather than making the viewer feel every device change.
- **Mixed frame rates are expected**: Real-time clips and higher frame rate clips are used according to how they serve the film, not rejected for not matching.
- **No prep before upload**: No renaming, sorting by camera, proxies or pre-selection, and no limit on the number of files.
- **One story from many devices**: Different perspectives from the same wedding are used together, so the film reads as one day rather than a sequence of device sections.
- **Large files welcome**: Each file can be up to 5 GB, there is no total size limit for a project, and drone and 4K clips are accepted.

## Limits to plan around

- **Delivery is 1080p widescreen**: Whatever your sources recorded, the finished film is a 1080p widescreen MP4. A 4K drone clip still contributes to a 1080p film.
- **It works with what was captured**: A device that missed focus, clipped highlights or dropped frames cannot be fully rescued. The edit leans on the best available angle instead.
- **A signature grade is still yours to add**: If you finish every film with your own grade, bring the MP4 into your editor and apply it there.
- **One film per project**: Each project produces one Highlight Reel or one Social Teaser.

## Habits that help a mixed-camera edit

Set the same frame rate for real-time footage on every body where you can, and treat higher frame rates as a deliberate choice for slow-motion moments. That keeps the intent of each clip obvious.

Keep white balance consistent within a scene rather than leaving every body on auto. Clips that start closer together are easier to bring to one finished look, whichever camera made them.

Do not leave the phone out of the upload because it feels less professional. The phone often holds the unplanned moment the main body missed, and a slightly imperfect shot of a real reaction can matter more than another flawless detail shot.

## Questions about mixed-camera weddings

### Can I mix Sony, Canon, Panasonic and phone footage in one wedding?

Yes. Upload footage from every device into the same wedding project. WeddingEditor is built for weddings that contain footage from different camera brands, phones, drones and action cameras.

### Will the film look like it jumps between cameras?

The film works toward a consistent finished look across cameras and lighting, so the viewer feels one wedding rather than each device change.

### Do I need to convert or transcode my files first?

No conversion step is asked of you. Upload the original files; you do not need to make proxies, rename files or sort them by camera.

### One camera shot LOG and another a standard profile. Is that a problem?

No. Different picture profiles are a normal part of mixed-camera weddings, and the edit works toward one finished look. See the page on LOG wedding footage for more.

### Some clips are 24 fps and some are 60 or 120 fps. What happens?

Mixed frame rates are normal in wedding production. The edit treats each clip according to how it serves the film, for example slowing a high frame rate entrance while keeping speeches in real time.

### Does it line up the cameras automatically?

The promise is not a technical alignment tool. WeddingEditor works across footage from several devices and uses those perspectives together to build one coherent wedding film.

### Is this different from a wedding with several shooters?

It overlaps, but the problem is different. Several shooters raises the question of whose angle tells each moment; several devices raises the question of making different pictures feel like one film. Many weddings have both.

### What resolution is the finished film?

A 1080p widescreen H.264 MP4 that you download from the project and can open in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro.
