Video Biography For Individuals, Families And Businesses

By Karina Frost


Prominent people have often resulted to use biographies to tell their story of how they were born, grew up and lived. Mostly, a biography is written by the person while they are alive. In other cases, they are written by another person. Biographies have been in form of books for a long time. In recent times however, video biography is often used.

People tell their stories through video documentation in video biographies. These stories may include certain aspects of their lives or careers and other major experiences or events. Use of recorded biographies is important as it offers convenience and accessibility. Similarly to books-form biographies, those that are in record form may be auto authored or authored by a different person. In this case, recorded biographies of Isaac Newton and others who lived before this technological era are available.

In the process of understanding our history, we come across scattered and incomplete information regarding our past. Mostly, we often look up to our grandparents for stories. In other cases, there are old photos which however may not be dated. Journals and diaries or home movies left behind by others are also used. Due to the shortcoming of these options, video is the best way to document history.

The process begins with identifying a company that offers the services of video documentation. Once this is done an appointment is scheduled and interviews organized. Individuals, families as well as businesses and foundations can access these services. Interviews vary on the people and the length but usually last up to two hours. The documentary has to be edited to remove information that is not necessary such as lengthy pauses or repeated information. Customization of colors and graphics is done based on the preference of the customers.

When families document their history or genealogy, it is important for them and also for their generations to come. Those coming after them need to realize what their ancestors stood for as it offers a sense of legacy and pride. Biographies for families are inclusive of every member and their photos and information as well.

Personal documentaries are made by individuals. Everyone has a story to tell, may be that of love or career or even war for veterans. This information is recorded for future references and sometimes to give out to friends and close people as gifts. In addition, they are kept for future generations and sometimes sold for money.

Business and foundations need to also capture their stories on camera. This may include new product releases, expansion to new branches or even relocation. Employees may also appear on the documentary to tell the story of the company. This is archived to remind the company in future of its history, achievements and milestones.

The pricing is based on length and complexity of your story. When you have to travel out of town, it may increase the price too. The video is stored in Blu ray discs and other types of DVDs that have proven to last even up to hundred years. The DVDs are custom printed depending on your preferences. Contact a professional biography company to document your personal, business or family story.
