A Video Made From Your Photos
Our oldest service is the creation of a video from your
pictures. This is a wonderful gift that our customers
love to give to their families. Often the customer will be
in tears because of the emotion brought out from the production.
Using your photos we will create a video production
to be played at your special event. The production will include
titles, special effects, scrolls, and your own music. The price
is based on the size of your order but, the average order is between
$150-$225.
How To Prepare:
1. Start with how long you want the production to last:
A ten minute video production will be about 100 photos, a 15 minute
production about 150 photos, a 20 minute production about 200 photos...you
get the idea.
2. Next get your photos, slides, newspaper articles or anything
else you want in order. You do not need to remove them from frames
or picture albums.
3. You do need to mark them so that we know which pictures
and what order to place them.
WARNING: Do NOT use magic marker, pen or anything else
that can transfer to the other pictures when they are stacked. We
use a grease pencil and post-its.
4. If you would like a title placed before a section of
pictures or superimposed over a picture, simply write that title
on a piece of paper (use pencil) and put it in the order. We include
a beginning title (titles are up to 8 words), and additional title every 50 pictures, and an ending scroll (up to 40 words) with your order.
Example Titles:
Mom & Dad
A Girl Becomes a Woman
A Boy Becomes a Man
Two Become One
The Grandchildren
Our technicians will select special effects to place between your
pictures creating a spectacular presentation that everyone will
enjoy.
5. Putting your special music onto your video production
will make all the difference. We will put music from your CDs or
audio cassettes onto your video for no additional charge. Songs
can be faded out early to fit with a section of pictures.
Suggestion: You should plan to use a song every 30 pictures.
We will need enough music to cover the entire video for example:
100 pictures = 10 minutes of music
110 pictures = 11 minutes of music
120 pictures = 12 minutes of music
and so on...
6. We like to end our productions with a scroll (up to 40 words). This is
a short paragraph that will move up the television screen. It should
be a bible verse, a short poem or a meaningful message from the
heart. One scroll is included in the total price and is a great
way to end your personal project.
7. An additional way to enhance your production is to add
short clips from your family's home videos.
Finally, our productions include one master DVD and one free VHS copy.
While titles, a scroll, effects, music, a DVD and a VHS copy are included in the price, additional copies, titles,
scrolls, video clips or whatever you want can be added. Just tell
us what you want and we can tell you if there are any additional
charges.
Please call us at 330-633-2255 for pricing or to ask specific questions.
