Frequently asked questions

The equipment is contactlessly delivered to your door, pre sanitised and then contactlessly collected from your door.

It's actually not about the tools, it's how they are used. We virtually direct you where to place the camera in your room. We use lapel microphone/s, full manual control and have enough battery/card space to record for several hours in full quality.

What would future generations want to know? Some opening questions could be: - What is today's day/month/year? - Where and when were you born? - What is your earliest memory? It's more about listening and following up on storylines whilst progressing chronologically.

If a couple does wants to be interviewed together, we encourage this. We can break the interview/s into parts. First, the interview can cover each person's birth, childhood and experiences until meeting their partner. Then the interview can cover their time together and joint stories. The record duration is still 2-3 hours. For a more comprehensive interview we suggest booking a second slot.

We set-up a password-protected subdomain with your video on it. You can download the video in a variety of sizes. You can also watch it without downloading. You can share this link with anyone around the world. Please note this will only be live for three months after delivery, giving you plenty of time to download and safekeep.

Your interview is delivered securely online in an H.264 codec at UHD 3840x2160 resolution. The video is compressed into a happy medium between size and quality. If you would like an uncompressed version and/or the camera originals, this can be arranged at additional cost. (The cost of a new hard drive.)

We are open to working with you. Let us know what you want! We can also provide you with a build-your-own modular quote.
