There are no age limits on who can participate. They call me ‘The Storyweaver’ because of the in-depth and spontaneous manner of how I guide you through the whole video creation process.  I have interviewed people up to the age of 102, including people with dementia.

You could do it yourself, but planning what you’re going to say… setting up the camera and lights to film the interview…  and then editing the hours of footage on your own is a big job. And one that most people never get around to.  One of the biggest issues for novice filmmakers is: People won’t watch a video with poor sound.  And getting a good audio recording is complicated…  especially if you’ve never done it before.  Instead, let us do the hard work for you. We’re professionals who have filmed 100’s of video biographies. And can offer you a 100% money back satisfaction guarantee.
