Ideal Preparation before your sitting
- Find a location which is quiet and feels like "you" - your videographer will work with you when they arrive on site to find the ideal location.
- Preferably choose non-patterned clothes (Ideally white, black, grey or a single color)
- Having props or photos available, so much the better (but not necessary)
Think about your story
- It's helpful to almost everyone to consider your key messages for each segment in your chosen template before starting your film.
Review your chosen template before your filming session: https://templates.not-forgotten.com/notforgotten/notforgotten-video-time-capsule-templates?pid=NjY66396&v=4.46
On the day
- Your videographer will direct you and make suggestions when you first meet.
- They will set up lighting and sound recording equipment and two different cameras. The videographer will conduct your interview and it will last for approximately two hours.
After that
Relax! Your videographer will edit your video and get it ready for submission to Not Forgotten.
How to complete your Legacy Product
You can upload 2GB of digital assets into your account. You also need to capture your family data so we can generate your genealogy record. If you don't want to do either of these, you can "skip" both and your video will be submitted with your basic account information.
If any of these preparations prove difficult then do not worry, your videographer will find a way of creating your video.
