The places that remind us of you

What the film shows

The film shows photos from the person's life: childhood, family, friends, places they loved and things they enjoyed doing. The narrator speaks calmly over soft music. The film doesn't put words in their mouth that they never said.

The photos you need

Photos from different stages of life, pictures with family and friends and photos of places that mattered to them. Photos of paper prints are fine. Agree as a family which pictures should be shown.

How you get your film

Pick a calm film idea, upload the photos, answer the questions for the chosen story and confirm the details. The finished film is in My Studio to watch and download. If you like, add a farewell letter or poem as a PDF.
