The Memorial Video Process, Explained
Most celebration of life and video memorial projects start with a phone call to Peter.
- Peter asks questions about the person and the date of the memorial service. He asks what you have in mind.
- Normally, people will need to hunt around and even ask around to find out what images and video are available.
- Peter gives an estimate for the project.
- If you decide to go ahead, Peter asks about the person's life, their family, and what was most important to them.
- He explores with you the words that would describe the person and if there are sayings or quotations that can be used.
- Peter will spend time getting information about the photos to be used for captions.
- Once we have the materials we get to work and make the video memorial. We then post a preview on-line.
- Oftentimes, people find more images or want some changes to what is posted. We welcome all changes - the objective is to get the project perfect.
- Once we have your final changes or final approval we go ahead and make up the final memorial montage.
- We normally deliver an HD version of the project digitally, or on a USB flash drive if requested. But if you prefer a specific format - or something else - just let us know.

A Lovely Life Celebrated: Bob Monley Video ClipHere is the opening for Bob's funeral slideshow. As you can see, he was quite the crooner! He also had a large, loving family who still miss him today.
In this 3 minute clip , we use home video taken by Bob's daughter Lori, quotations, and words that describe Bob. Of course, photographs form the backbone of the video memorial and we take the greatest care scanning and restoring each photograph. And, we try not to rush through. More samples... |

Meaningful text can help reveal another side of the person or their values. It also helps to break up the presentation and make it more engaging. We can help with suggestions - just follow the button link above.

More Kind Words about Memorial Videos...

"I am so thankful I found you! When my mom passed, I wanted a video to show at her memorial service; I was very stressed about pulling this together with limited time. I searched the internet, viewed your projects and looked no further. The minute I sat down with you, I felt relieved. Your ability to view photos of complete strangers along with their family and friends and quickly recognize people, milestones and moments is amazing. I knew I was in good hands and the stress went away. I handed you photos and notes and you turned them into a beautiful story.
After watching the video at my mom's service, there was a very unexpected response; everyone was clapping! I've never heard people applaud at a funeral service. In the days and weeks to follow, I received numerous compliments. Thanks again for creating a video that we not only enjoyed at the service, but that can be cherished forever."
