We carefully match you with a professional filmmaker based on location, background, and personality.
Your Filmmaker will interview you and make all the preparations for filming.
Once you are happy with the final edit, you receive a digital copy of your finished film.
From our initial conversation we match you with a filmmaker based on your location, background, and personality.
Making your documentary film begins with pre-production, and you can do the prep for that via phone or video call, or in person. Next comes an interview with the filmmaker, during which you can share your story, starting from the day of your birth.
The filmmaker will use their understanding of you to guide you through telling your life story in a way that makes for engaging, compelling viewing.
You’ll also use the pre-production phase as a chance to go through your photo albums, and to find treasured items and keepsakes. The filmmaker will use all this to create the production brief that will guide the next part of the process.
Shortly after the production phase begins, you’ll hear the famous cry, “Action!” and the camera will start recording.
You’ll be interviewed, other contributors will be interviewed, and you’ll be filmed going through photo albums and providing commentary on the photos you want to highlight. The filmmaker will also film some of your life today, and don’t be surprised if spontaneous creative ideas change a few things – the days of filming are a chance to experience filmmaking’s magic!

The post-production phase brings the film footage, commentary, interviews, and even home video clips together. This is when the editing team works to create a film that is sure to make an impression on you and your friends and family. Halfway through the process, the team will check in with you for accuracy.
If there are any changes to be made, this is when to make them. When you are happy with the final edit, they will lock the picture and prepare the completed film before delivering it to you in digital form.
