Autobiography Video Productions - Your Life Story recorded on DVD for your family keepsake
Consider the value of being able to pass on your personal or family life story for your grand-children & following generations ...
We assist you in compiling the
information about your life story, & prepare you for presenting your
story.
We will film you in an interview style,
or let you 'present' off the cuff if you are comfortable with that.
The whole process may be filmed in a single location such as your
current home, with you telling your story. Photographs of your special
memories may be overlaid to make the story more interesting &
meaningful.
In the example to the right, Gwen tells her life story to camera, from her
home with a collection of photos & memorabilia to fill in the picture.
This clip is just a sample, the whole video is 25 minutes long.
Alternatively, we can film you at a number of locations such as where
you were born, grew up, were married, lived the majority of your life
before retirement, etc. It may be just 'you' or include you spouse, even
children, to make it a more complete documentary of your life.
Short excerpts may be edited, either with your direction, or at a
later stage & in cooperation with your family, to be presented during
the final celebration of your life in the context of a Eulogy. This
provides an amazing impact on those present when 'you' can present your
own life story, on the screen right in front of those gathered!
The example to the right was cut down for the purpose of the
Celebration of Percy's life (funeral). The whole autobiography video is about an hour
& includes the growing up years of both Percy & June, as well as their
life together, in a lot more detail.
The choice is yours, & with our guidance, together we will put
together a memorable keepsake for your children, grand-children &
following generations, to celebrate the life of you & your family.
Don't wait until it's too late!
As a
funeral director, I see many different ways that families pay homage to
their loved ones. Eulogies and musical slide shows are fairly common and
are an effective method of reflection.
It was
not until recently that I witnessed something very special. It was an
autobiographical multimedia production (Life Story Video) told by a
Grandfather a few years before he passed away. The reaction of those
gathered at the funeral was amazing. Everyone's attention was fixed on
the screen as they listened intently to every word spoken. Not only was
this video an emotional tribute at the funeral, it will remain a
valuable historical record for the generations to come.
Paul not
only produced this very professional video, but also filmed the entire
funeral service which has been a great help for the widow to be able
to reflect upon a day that is difficult to absorb at the time. I would
encourage anybody that is interested in producing a Life Story Video to
contact Paul sooner than later, because we never know how many days we
might have left.
Likewise,
I have no hesitation in recommending Pauls professionalism in recording
any service, whether it be a funeral, wedding or any other momentous
occasion. Paul has the natural ability to bring out the best in his
productions. I give Paul two thumbs up and wish him every success
because he works hard to satisfy his clients.
