Documentary filmmaker, GuudKelly has set his sights on changing the way weddings are celebrated and documented in Ghana.GuudKelly, CEO of RoleModels Agency says it is not enough to shoot a video and snap some stills to document a special occasion as wedding, as has been the tradition.Known in real life as Abiel Delali Keli, GuudKelly who was speaking in an interview with Myjoyonline.com said weddings are more than a day’s affair and include memorable moments prior to the wedding day itself.He is therefore introducing the country’s first ever documentary, Wedding Documentaries, to capture every memorable moment before and after the wedding day.He explained that documenting the marriage process of a marriage and should include every step of the way some three months to the event, such as filming the buying of the rings, shoes, bride's dress and groom's suit as well as behind the scenes. Mixed with interviews of friends and family so as to capture the character of the marriage in the wedding documentary "instead of a plain boring cctv coverage of the marriage which is a cliché,” make a great story.These documentaries, GuudKelly said, are “everyday life weddings, we decided to bring our film-making background from Sinking Sands and a lot of documentaries for the BBC, Discovery Channel HD, Canal+ and our work with big name film-makers all over the world to the wedding coverage. We realized a lot of people were not interested in Videos now but were only interested in the Photography part of the wedding.”Abiel who has already started shooting some of the wedding documentaries recounted when he covered a very dear friend’s wedding who disclosed how “she is 37 years old and the pressure that came from all angles to marry but she was resolute on finding her best friend before she will marry and on the day of her marriage we saw the happiness in her eyes and everyone around her.”
