Dust off those old videos and let us direct your next movie!
If you’re Steven Spielberg, you’ve got a huge budget to go out and get pretty much any imagery you need to tell a compelling story (and if you are Steven Spielberg, thanks for visiting my web site!) The rest of us, however, have to be content with the imagery we have. However, that
doesn’t mean you can’t use what you’ve got to tell a great story!
More than likely, however, your footage from that last vacation, that promotion, or birthday party is sitting somewhere gathering dust in a drawer.
You may have to fast-forward through the parts where that jackhammer was in the background, or someone accidentally left the camera on, capturing eight
minutes of their shoe. Or maybe it’s not an old movie – maybe it’s the video you promised to make of your best friend’s wedding, and the lighting is
off, Aunt Marge went a little crazy with the zoom function while you were on break, and, inexplicably, there’s the 30-second clip of Lenny talking about when he was dating the bride.
We can take all that footage and painstakingly review it for the best parts, clip out the rest (though your footage will remain intact!) and resize, speed up,
slow down, reverse or otherwise enhance those key moments to optimize viewing. We can add transitions to spice things up, and use the best images from your footage, or photos you provide separately, to create a Hollywood-style introduction. If you send us some of the details about your event, we can even add captions, subtitles, or titles to introduce different parts of the video!

The finished product is then (depending on what you want) put onto a professionally labelled DVD with a theme-specific menu and context-related chapter markers so you can quickly find the best parts. The whole thing is wrapped in a protective, commercial-style case, using images from your video or separately provided images, and an appropriate title. Any footage you mailed us, as well as the DVD (or several to share with friends!) we make are returned to you.
As a variant, we can additionally render lower-resolution versions of the video for posting online, or small clips of specific portions for the same purpose. Remember, you get to review everything on our site before we go final – and before you pay a dime! So why not dust off those old videotapes and let us create a story from the special moments of your life? |
