# How does WeddingEditor decide whether a shot is worth using?

WeddingEditor asks whether a shot adds something to the film, so a slightly imperfect clip of a parent crying can beat a flawless shot of table decor. The goal is the strongest film, not the cleanest frames.

A technically perfect clip is not automatically the most important one. A spontaneous moment between the couple can matter more than another polished establishing shot.

That is the difference between building a wedding film and filtering a folder for sharp, well-exposed footage.
