Coda Podcast - For Wedding Filmmakers

• Spice Wedding Films // Camcorders, Contracts and the Search for Joy

  Today on the Coda Podcast I’m joined by Chris Spice from Spice Wedding Films — a filmmaker known for his joyful, honest and heartfelt approach to capturing weddings.In this episode, we dive into how Chris found his voice as a wedding filmmaker, the surprising contradiction of manufacturing moments in order to capture footage that still feels completely natural, and why simplifying the client journey can transform the experience for both you and your couples.He also shares the story of a client from hell that prompted him to create the wedding videographer Super Contract that can help videographers protect their creativity, set expectations, and keep their business running smoothly.This one’s packed with practical insight and real talk about filmmaking, storytelling and running a professional wedding-film business.Guest: https://www.spiceweddingfilms.comHost: https://roo-films.comCoda: https://coda-conference.com💡 Coda Membership - Learn, Grow & ConnectJoin an annual membership created for wedding filmmakers who want to keep learning, stay inspired and be part of a supportive community all year round.

• Coda Chats: The Becky Sessions

  Welcome to the very first episode of Coda Chats — a new, more relaxed corner of the Coda Podcast where we strip away the tech talk and have real, honest conversations about life as wedding filmmakers.For this debut episode, I’m joined by Becky Thompson and Becky Kinross, amazing filmmakers and also the duo behind The Becky Sessions podcast.Together, we dive into the realities of navigating parenthood while self-employed, our collective thoughts on the rise of content creators, and why the world of wedding filmmaking still seems to be so heavily dominated by men. We also explore the very different experiences male and female filmmakers can have on a wedding day — plus plenty more fascinating, funny, and honest insights along the way.This episode sets the tone for what Coda Chats is all about: real people, real experiences, and the conversations we all need to be having in our industry.Guests: https://thompsonweddingfilms.co.uk & https://www.filmsaboutlove.co.ukHost: https://roo-films.comCoda: https://coda-conference.com💡 Coda Membership - Learn, Grow & ConnectJoin an annual membership created for wedding filmmakers who want to keep learning, stay inspired and be part of a supportive community all year round.

• K Smith Films // The Lost Art of the Feature Film

  Today on the Coda Podcast, I’m joined by Kurtis Smith of K.Smith Films — a filmmaker who blends pure creativity with serious technical craft.While Kurtis creates high-energy short-form content that lights up his social feeds, his true masterpieces are his long-form wedding films. These are immersive, emotionally rich stories built with intention — shaped by his background as a musician and his ability to craft intricate, sound scores that give his work a signature depth and rhythm.In this episode, we break down how Kurtis approaches both ends of the spectrum — from punchy, viral-ready short form to the expansive long-form edits he’s become known for. And we even dive into how he managed to pull off a same-day edit at a wedding — the planning, the pressure, and the creative chaos behind it.Guest: https://ksmithfilms.co.ukHost: https://roo-films.comCoda: https://coda-conference.com💡 Coda Membership - Learn, Grow & ConnectJoin an annual membership created for wedding filmmakers who want to keep learning, stay inspired and be part of a supportive community all year round.
