THE EXPERIENCE

The process of creating the archive begins with a pre-interview meeting between you and your interviewer, at home, where you will get to know each other. The interviewer will get an idea of the shape of your story and note key events.

The interviewer will then take a week to research the history of relevant events, in order to ask insightful and relevant questions on the interview day. You will be asked to collate your photographs, documents and other memorabilia ready for scanning. None of these will be taken out of your home.

The interview process itself requires a whole day in order to film your interview, and scan and index your photographs.

Shortly afterwards your on-line archive will be ready. The site containing your information is password protected, so that you can share it securely with your loved ones.

Each video archive comes with a presentation photo book, comprising the full transcript of your interview, your photographs and other memorabilia. 

A true archive of your life story.
