Remember the PBS Civil War series?

Remember how the photographs came alive through the use of camera movement? This is exactly what how we create Family Video Heirlooms that will wow your audiences.

Transfer to video of slides, photos, film and video, all done creatively, with style.

No boring, static slide shows here (unless that’s what you want, of course.) Only perfectly paced, entertaining collections of still images that tell the story of your family or organization.

Photos are scanned, color corrected and cleaned (in Photoshop) if needed, and cropped. Original photos can be virtually any size. They are then processed in such a way that the camera's eye moves over and into the image, heightening the emotion of viewing that image. Special effect transitions, if desired, will be used sparingly for effect and only in harmony with each photo’s nature and the music being used.

Our philosophy is for the special effects to enhance the story, and never to overpower the story itself.

For each ten photos, one title screen is included (to be used wherever you want.) Music is also included, and a nice selection of royalty-free music is available to choose from. Photos will remain on screen for 5-6 seconds, so figure about 10 photos for each minute of finished video. We highly recommend keeping the whole show to seven minutes or less if possible so your audience doesn't lose interest.

Options include “morphing” two photos into one another, clipart and animations, if you like.

The finished product will be entertaining to watch and a whole lot more interesting than a static “slide show.”

We know you will agree. Call us for details.
