Process
YOUR VISION: Create a legacy video to define your family’s mythology, the stories you want to carry forward for future generations. This is an opportunity to find and create meaning in the life we witness.
YOUR MISSION: You want to collaborate on this creation. Where do we start? Capturing a person’s life can be an overwhelming task. No fear!
FIRST STEP: Joey Xanders will engage you to discuss what’s on your mind and in your heart. She will share her approach to storytelling and creating. Through the guidance of her Talking Points, you both will know the best path to move forward for Joey breaks down the process into manageable steps. Here’s a small sample of items we embrace:
GOAL: Together we create a mini-documentary on a life you choose to feature.
AUDIENCE: The audience will be family and friends with the option of sharing with the general public.
LENGTH: A short and clippy video is more expensive to make. Yes, this is counter-intuitive.
CONTENT: You decide on the focus of this documentary. Which family? Friends? Do you want to capture a live-action scene? B-roll? Archival footage?
FINAL DELIVERABLE: Is a movie on a hard drive. Or do you want to discuss creating a family FaceBook page? A family website? Share the final version publically?
Yes, there are contracts to review, so we do our best to avoid unwelcomed surprises. Once we have the details set, we have the glorious opportunity to dive into the stories that have shaped you and your family’s lives. What a glorious gift!
