Product Samples

Video Sample:

The clip on the right is a sample of a "My Long Story Short" video.

Each "My Long Story Short" interview is recorded using a high-definition video recorder, as well as a condenser lavalier microphone, to assure the highest audio quality of the interviewee's voice. The final video is then carefully edited—incorporating the footage from the full interview, as well as photographs captured during the interview session. Additional photographs—chosen and supplied by the client—are also creatively weaved into the presentation. Depending on the length of the chosen interview package, the video will run approximately 60 to 90 minutes.

On Love & Marriage . . .

"And we can sit here, watch the old movies, I pat her on the leg, we have popcorn—and I tell her, 'You know, this is the best time of day for me. It's about 6:30 or 7:00 at night, I don't have a worry in the world. I've got my sweetheart here beside me. What more in life could you ask for? God's in his heaven and all is right with the world.'"
                      —Fran Lovell (81) and his wife of 60 years, Betty
                          Wichita, Kansas

On Money & Wealth . . .

"You live through something like the Dust Bowl you've pretty much learned you can handle just about anything that comes up in life. I remember when my daddy had his farm foreclosed, I saw him put his head down on the table and just cry. Of course, we didn't really comprehend all of it at the time. We were just worried, scared. I mean, what were we gonna do? If they took our farm where would we live?"
—Hazel McCrary (89)
Stillwater, Oklahoma
