The Film

Each film is a personal documentary – a relaxed conversation, beautifully filmed and carefully edited.

We capture the stories, memories and laughter of your parent or grandparent, creating something your family can keep and return to for years to come – their story, told in their own words.

What You Will Receive

  • A pre-filming call – a relaxed conversation with the interviewee, a family member, or both to discuss the life story overview and set expectations for the day.

  • A long-form interview – full, in-depth conversation capturing life stories, reflections, and wisdom.

  • A shorter highlight film – a beautifully edited version featuring key moments, perfect for sharing with loved ones.

  • Final delivery – you’ll receive a high-quality digital file, or we can transfer it to a hard drive you provide.

Preparing for Your Filming Day

THINKING ABOUT STORIES

Your earliest memories, life’s turning points, and the lessons you’d like 
to share.

CHOOSING PHOTOGRAPHS

Up to 20 digitised photos can be woven into the film to bring stories to life.

PICKING A COMFORTABLE SPOT

Somewhere familiar and well-lit helps create a relaxed atmosphere. We’ll guide you on what works best.
