Are you getting married, and want to show your friends and
family the funny, romantic, or adventurous story of how you
and your fiancé met? Or are you the maid of honor or
best man, charged with the all-important toast to the new
bride and groom? We’ll use your existing video and photos
to create an entertaining film that is sure to bring out both
laughter and tears. To make the piece even more special, we
can also shoot and incorporate interviews of the bride, groom,
and wedding party.

“What Elisabeth created surpassed all my expectations.
She interviewed the bride and groom and wedding party, incorporated
photos from their childhoods, and produced a video that literally
brought down the house. Everyone was crying and cheering at
the end, and I felt like a hero for having put it together.”
Carl K, San Francisco
Birthdays and other Special Occasions
If you are looking for a unique gift or tribute for a birthday,
anniversary, or retirement dinner, why not create a personalized
video that will show family and friends just how important
this person is to you? Special Occasion Films will take your
existing video and photos, and along with optional interviews,
to produce the perfect toast for the big event and a keepsake
that will be cherished forever.
"My wife loved the video you did for her birthday,
it was very touching! Great idea!"

Other Events
All of our packages are customized, so if you have a special
event in mind (such as an anniversary party, retirement dinner,
or any other occasion), contact us and we can help you!
Creating a Special Occasion Film is easy. Knowing your time
is limited, we have developed a video production process that
is streamlined and efficient :
Identifying your expectations: We customize
each video for our clients, so our first step is to get
to know your vision and ideas for your video scrapbook.
To do so, we contact you via the method you have requested
(phone or email) to schedule an initial meeting (either
in person or via phone), which generally lasts 20-30 minutes.
If you don’t have time to meet, we have a brief form
you can send to us via fax or email. By the end of this
first step, we will have established both clear a timeline
and process for producing your Special Occasion Film.
Getting your video and pictures: If
we meet in person, we can pick up your video at this time.
You can also get the video to us by regular mail.
Filming option: If you want to incorporate a story
or special message into your video, we can make all
the arrangements to tape the message, including coming
to your location and setting up the camera equipment.
Our field producer can interview you with some questions
(prepared by you or with help from us) to prompt you
to tell the story. Plan on spending at least 30 minutes
with our producer.
Creating the video: Once we have all
the video we need, we get to work creating your customized
video. We will be in touch throughout the process so we
can respond to any questions or ideas that you may have.
Reviewing the proof copy: We will mail
you one “director’s cut” that you can
proof and review before we produce the final cut.
Producing the final version: Once we
have incorporated your feedback on the proof, we will send
you a final DVD, which is yours forever.
If you think you’d like to create a Special Occasion
Film, contact us. We look forward to helping you relive your
memories forever!
