Video Documentation: If you
attend retirement ceremonies fairly regularly you will witness a
wide variety of retirement experiences. Some will be simple and
elegant -- some are very complex and some will be full of pomp and
circumstance. Often the retiree wants this to be the crowning
moment of their career; the icing on the cake if you will. Some
want to impart a message, many want to share their accomplishments
and sense of pride with the audience, and some just want to show
their patriotism. Documented Memories is honored to have a
retired veteran with the experience necessary to truly capture this
once in a lifetime event. And, we can produce a personalized
DVD of the retirement ceremony.
Video Memory Montage: Over the years, we’ve
noticed ceremonies that were memorable and really stood out were the
ones that personalized their event and told a story of the member’s
career. Often, the stories would come in the form of a memory
montage. A memory montage is a combination of photos, video, music
and even voice-overs; telling a story, or creating a mood during the
ceremony or gathering. Often, the member’s family or duty section
will provide pictures and video to Documented Memories to create
a montages as part of the retirement gift.
Why use a montage? People often go to great
lengths to make their final days in the military as meaningful as
possible. Their retirement ceremony often endeavors to encapsulate
their careers while honoring military heritage. The montage may be
used in several ways: the most common way is to show a simple video
slide show as guests are arriving and again as they are departing.
However, montages may be sprinkled throughout the ceremony in
smaller segments to add meaning to different stages of the ritual.
Montages can cover a broad spectrum of areas including pre-military
life, basic training, various assignments, exercises, deployments,
friendships various highlights during their career. The
possibilities are endless. Enlisted

Video Memoirs - Every family has
a history, stories that add flavor and spice to each generation.
Many are lost as the older generation passes on. Most families
have a storyteller. Someone that can tell family accounts as
nobody else can. Often they act as a catalyst to start the fun
and laughter at family gatherings. Wouldn't it be a shame if
these stories were lost to the next generations! Wouldn't it
be a wonderful heirloom to be able to preserve these memories and to
pass them on? Wouldn't you have cherished a gift that allows
you to know your parents and grandparents in a deeper, more
interactive way? Documented Memories can capture your family
stories and storytellers on video. Let us capture a personal
biography or family gathering and create a custom DVD.
