The Advantages of Capturing & Sharing Memories with Stories of a Lifetime

Stories of a Lifetime is the easiest way to record, store, and share your memories, stories, family history (or anything you want to share with loved ones), effortlessly via video. It's yours to share today, and preserved for future generations to see "tomorrow".

How is it different from simply recording a video yourself?

Most people have hundreds of photos and videos on their phones. While you could just record yourself and add another needle to this haystack, Stories of a Lifetime provides something different: a polished, keepsake movie that combines your stories, memories, and answers to questions about your life. It's designed to be shared with the people you care about; it's a gift, an heirloom, a legacy that your family will actually cherish.

With Stories of a Lifetime:

• You'll receive a polished, keepsake movie experience. It isn't just a video. Your movie will have an introduction featuring your name and the chapter of your life story it's about, it will introduce each question before showing your answer, and it will include photos you choose to make your movie even more impactful, all with tasteful background music.
• Prompts help evoke memories. The provided questions prompt you to recall important memories, milestones, and life experiences, resulting in movies that are interesting, moving, and meaningful. You can use the questions as provided, edit them, or replace them with your own to make your movie exactly what you want. Your movie will introduce each question before showing your answer.
• Add your favorite photos. Make your movie even more impactful by adding photos of memories or anything else you want to share.
• Recording could not be easier. Recording is done on our website so you don't have to worry about how to record, organize, combine, store, and send videos on your own. You simply click a button and Stories of a Lifetime does all of the work.
• Your movie will last forever. Movies are private, secure, backed up using industry best practices, and never "expire". This means if you share your movie via a link or a printable QR code you can attach to anything, it will be available to your family for generations to come.
• Your movie, your way. If you're not happy with any part of an answer you record, you can re-record it; as many times as you want or need to. There's no rush, either - you can record your answers anytime, whenever it's most convenient for you.
• Your movie is completely private. Because the Stories of a Lifetime platform automatically creates your movie, no 3rd party (not even a Stories of a Lifetime employee) ever sees your answers. Your movie stays between you and the people you choose to share it with.
• Help is always available. The Stories of a Lifetime Team is available to answer questions and provide support every step of the way via email or live chat.

Our goal is to provide something families will find tremendously valuable, at a tremendous value.
