How to Preserve Your Families Memories

When my daughter was born, I did some basic math and realized that by the time she was twenty, her grand parents would be over 80 years old. They would never really get to know each other.  I want to bridge these gaps in time and distance between my family members. I want my children and their children to remember me, and my family the way that I remember them. I also want to make sure that this priceless material is preserved and maintained so that they too can share it with their families.

I believe family is the most important corner stone in life. We here at “Times of Your Life”, strive to capture that magnificence for many years of enjoyment, nostalgia and celebration.  Too often, these memories end up lost and scattered. We are the first generation that has access to the methods and technology in which to permanently document our own family histories. This is what makes a company like “Times of your Life Media” possible.

We all have stacks of family media, video, photos and old home movies that quietly collect dust in a hidden box tucked away in an attic or spare room. You know that this material is priceless, but lack the time and skill to do something about it.  That's where we come in. Why not take all of this great material and produce a high quality living documentary of your family.

Professionalism does make a difference.

We have assembled a team of award winning film makers whose credits include broadcast work at ABC, NBC, Discovery Channel and PBS, among others to organize your family’s media and produce high broadcast quality productions for your family. The common thread that runs through our team is that we are family oriented. We hope and believe that the work we create for every client will still be enjoyed by that family in 10, 20 even fifty years time. And how many places today can you really expect to get fifty years of value out of anything that you purchase.

WHAT WE DO

We edit your media into a DVD montage of the highlights, complete with soundtrack, organized into chapters into chronology and events. Just imagine having all of your memories accessible at the push of a button. Unlike other companies that take these images, throw them into a machine and let it rip, we take the time to process the images and make them accessible to you and other members of your family.

Biography/Family Film

Every family has wonderful stories that are either lost over the passing of a generation or forgotten over time. We interview members of your family and edit their stories together with family photos, home movies, home video and newsreel footage. The finished professionally produced film is a legacy for the whole family.  As one of our clients has recently stated,

 “you can imagine seeing this on the television... and since we live in a planet where everyone is dispensed around the world, this is a great way of bringing them together."

With Love from Mom and Dad

All of you mom and dads know what a joy it is to be a parent. This is a production that includes edited video, photos and music showing you and your children throughout the years together as a family. The productions are easily updated each year and provide you and your kids with a gift that will last forever. Makes a great gift for any occasion. 
 

The Process

We ask every client a list of questions at the front end so we know your preferences. Secondly; we do this all of the time. We have edited hundreds of thousands of photos and videos and everyone’s media is pretty much the same. Holidays, birthdays, and visits to grand ma. Because were family people ourselves, it's not very difficult to work out who and what to include. After all how many 70 year old men does the five year old in the picture play with? It’s probably grand dad.  We approach each project as if it is a Network produced documentary. This means that you tell us what you want, and we deliver a finished documentary along with the organized media.

Digital Storage and Media Preservation

While producing family documentaries we discovered a major problem faced by all of us.  In this world of changing video and digital picture formats our precious home video material and digital pictures are in danger of becoming obsolete.

Video Tape

If your material is on video tape and the videos are 7-10 years old, they are already in danger of being lost to the ages. Video tape does and will deteriorate if we do not manage to get this material stored properly in an organized digital format that is accessible and usable. We here at “Times of Your Life” have worked with many to fix this problem. We take your media, regardless of format and digitize to gold coated DVDs, DC, Hard Drives to provide you with an organized safe storage system that is both accessible and secure.

Digital Media

Most of us do not realize the fragility of the pictures we download to our computer hard drives. One day you will start up your computer and find that thousands of pictures are gone. Digital media storage is not a permanent solution to storing you family media. We are at the mercy of a corporate environment where if your pictures are not properly maintained, they will either disappear when your computer crash's or the company that produces the software goes out of business. One thing is certain, your computer hard drive will eventually fail! 40% of people using digital family media have already permanently lost their material. Times of your Life Media offers you different options and solutions to this problem as well as valuable information contained here on this website.
