How does it work?
We can turn round your film very quickly. Once we have the source material we can deliver it within 48 hours sometimes less. Our researcher will arrange collection of photographs and anything else to be included. Then contact all the people who will be doing a eulogy and arrange filming as applicable. Then our editor will be ready and fully briefed of the style of film to produce.
“Memories are the greatest possession we have”
This has been a wonderful way to remember a loved one and has served as a tremendous help in dealing with one's loss." Astor's success with this type of film has led us to add video biographies to our list of services. In both biographies and remembrance films Astor shows you how to tell the story using highlights of a person's life.
Biography and documentary videos have never been more popular than they are now. Entire cable channels are now devoted to documentaries. Their entire purpose is to tell the stories of well known people from history, sports, politics and entertainment. Productions like these allow you, the viewer, to feel connected to people who may have lived decades earlier and to celebrate the lives of individuals who have impacted the world in which we live. Thanks to Astor, documentaries like these are no longer made exclusively about the lives of the rich and famous. Now we are creating similar videos for anyone who wishes to have a friend or loved one remembered on tape.
Memorial videos can help families through the grieving process and offer a thoughtful way for them to pass family histories down to future generations. The goal of any memorial video is to remember the one who has passed. Like funerals, memorial videos are not for the dead, but for the living. Providing those left behind with an opportunity to grieve, remember and pay tribute to the one who is gone.
Memories are the one thing we leave behind that will continue to go on living.
We at Astor are committed to helping you preserve your memories - both past and present - so that they will continue to have an impact on future generations.
- We also do this by providing videos to be shown at these special events. Our photo montages have received praise from all who have seen them.
- We especially enjoy honoring a person's life through funeral videos. This has been a wonderful way to remember a loved one and has served as a tremendous help in dealing with one's loss.
- Our video biographies have grown out of putting together these memorial videos. With a video biography you are not only putting together the highlights of a person's life, but you are able to get a better understanding of that person through his or her own words.
