Honest Answers

Things no other editor will tell you

"This seems expensive"

You'll pay this once. You'll watch this video 100 times over the next 50 years. That's 2 cents per view.

"I can just do this myself"

You could. After 20 hours of work and 12 YouTube tutorials. Your time is worth more than this.

"My footage is bad quality"

Perfect is the enemy of good. Bad footage of a real memory is better than perfect footage of nothing.

"I'll do it later"

You won't. We both know you won't. That's why you're here reading this right now.

You're going to love it. We guarantee it.

If you don't watch the final video and get emotional, we'll refund 100% of your money. No questions. No arguments. This matters too much to get wrong.

These are memories. We treat them like our own.

Questions people ask

How much footage can I send?

Unlimited. Dump literally everything. 10 minutes, 10 hours, doesn't matter. We'll go through all of it.

What format do you accept?

Everything. iPhone, Android, GoPro, DSLR, old camcorder files, whatever you have. We can work with literally anything.

Do you add music?

Yes. We pick perfect royalty free music that matches the vibe. Or you can send us specific songs you want.

Can you remove bad parts?

Of course. The blurry ones. The ones where everyone looks terrible. The awkward silence. We take out all the garbage.

How long does it take?

Most videos delivered in 48 hours. Longer videos might take 72 hours. We'll always keep you updated.

Those memories aren't getting any younger.

Your kids won't remember that trip. But they will remember sitting down and watching this video with you when they're 30. Don't let it just sit in your camera roll.
