Making Memories that last a Lifetime

Lifetime Production interviews family members for memories they can provide for generations to come. We have a studio in the energy corridor and are ready to record your memories or we can bring the studio to you. We deliver both 4k videos and also a sharable link to pass off to relatives and friends.

We have explored the digital landscape with passion for recording forever memories

Writing a memoir and putting together an audio recording is a great idea. We definitely encourage you to do that, but you also need to have a high quality video. Decades from now your great grandkids will look back at the video and will be able to see your facial expressions, mannerisms, and everything that makes you you. This visual recording is an invaluable addition that written and audio recordings just do not provide.

Creativity is in our
blood

Welcome to Lifetime Production!

Our studio is currently designed in a classic traditional decorating style. We have a light and dark individual sitting areas and if needed we also provide a larger area for multiple people. If you are unhappy with the style or you are not able to make it to the studio, we do offer a on-site service where we will come to you. Just let us know what you prefer and we will make it happen.

The Interview

Our videos usually last from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on how much the speaker wants to share. We usually start chronologically with their childhood and move forward focusing on parents and other people with significant influence on their lives, homes, and life growing up. We will provide a topics list for you to review before the interview and if you want to add any additional stories or important life memories, no problem. Share whatever you want with us and we will include it!

How it Works

Our work process

The process from start to finish

1.

Reservation

We coordinate and block off a chunk of time for you to give the interview.  When we set the appointment we will ask for a $75 reservation deposit.  This deposit goes towards the final balance.  This deposit is fully refundable up to 24 hours before the interview.

2.

Preparation

We will send a few basic questions to begin the process of thinking of the past and gathering memories and stories to share.  This allows one to start thinking about their past and maybe some good stories they want to share.  The interviewee does not have to stick to the format; they can go any direction they wish.  We will always try to steer the story to be positive and upbeat.

3.

Interview

The interview will be casual and relaxed.  We suggest a familiar face (family member) be with you. The idea is to just chat about their life and whatever else they want to talk about. Interviews tend to last 30 minutes to an hour and a half.  

4.

Delivery

We devote ourselves to the completion of your video and will start working on the final product. Please give us 7-10 business days to have your video completed.  Once complete, we will mail you your video and also share a private URL for you to give to your family and friends.

I believe everyone should have a video recording of their family members talking about their life growing up. Unfortunately, most people only realize this after it's too late. I hope to encourage people to act and not wait.

I agreed to do " Speaking Notes" with Lifetime Productions because I personally had very little knowledge of my extended relatives. My father was an only child and from a split family. My mother was from Canada and moved to the States. My parents did not talk about their families. I was left knowing very little to none about who was extended family. I wanted to leave something to my children, grandchildren that let them know my " story". By doing " Speaking Notes" it allowed me to say both what I wanted and needed to pass down. I felt very comfortable and relaxed and knowing I was able to express what was important with love and laughter. Thank you Lifetime Productions for giving me this opportunity.

I am so glad we have created professional memory videos for myself and my husband. My husband has been diagnosed with dementia and now he could never tell the story of his life with the same expression and detail as he did in his video. These videos will serve as keepsakes for our children, grandchildren, special events and our funerals. What a great idea to create a professional memory that captures both our personalities as well as our stories before we are no longer able to do so!

Jane Miller

Both my husband and I have done one of these videos so we have it to pass down to our children and our grandchildren. This is a way we feel like we can connect with them in the future when we are not there to answer all those questions that they may have. I wish that my parents and grandparents had done something like this so I could have it today.
