Sample Artwork and Sample Video Memorial Clips

Sample Artwork and Celebration of Life Memorial Slideshow Clips: Each project is unique and is a response to the photos, video and other elements you have available to include. We design your project and your artwork not just for the memorial occasion but to be kept and treasured for years to come.
Some video memorial projects are simple - just the gentle flow of photographs melting slowly into each other.  Other memorial slideshow projects
incorporate 3D openings, complex graphical elements, home audio and home video and other media elements.
Here is a small selection from the hundreds of affecting projects we have created over the last ten years or so.
Each sample is just a few minutes from a longer project.

Walter S. "Forever Family"

Where you have plenty of images and good information it sometimes works to place multiple images on screen - and tell part of the story in the video memorial using a "text crawl".

Walter was a war immigrant who survived terrible perils under the Soviets and the Nazis.  He went on to become a map maker and home gardener and was grateful for his very ordinary life.

This project was commissioned by his son (shown as a small boy in the hallway photo).
Michelle M. Video Memorial
Michelle Mansur brought joy to all who knew her. She became sick and passed away too soon, leaving a grateful but grieving family.

Michelle's video memorial project consisted almost entirely of photographs - divided into chapters for "Early Days", "The Moment Arrives", "Sisters", "Nieces and Three Sons" and "Friends and Best Friends". Chapter titles help with pacing and orientating the audience - and also provide some "reflecting time."

This is the chapter covering "Friends".

Chuck McAuley Memorial Slideshow

Born in Washington state, Chuck moved to California and built a business recycling oil.  When he saw the chance, he bought the Los Coyotes Country Club and over the years built it into one of the best golf courses in the state.

Prior to creating this video memorial montage, and at the instigation of his son, we filmed Chuck talking at length in a video biography about his life, its many challenges and setbacks and its extraordinary twists and turns.

A fierce businessman, Chuck was a gentle soul.

Georgia D. Funeral Slideshow

Georgia's family had LOTS of photos and were up for a different, split-screen approach.

Georgia had lived through WWII - helping to build P38s. She loved the outdoors and died in Nevada at a good old age.

In this celebration of life video memorial we have the images on the left scrolling from recent to older.  The main screen has images progressing from the earliest times to later times. There is one screen where Georgia is shown as a baby alongside a photo of Georgia holding one of her own grandchildren!
