By Karina Frost


Prominent people have often resulted to use biographies to tell their story of how they were born, grew up and lived. Mostly, a biography is written by the person while they are alive. In other cases, they are written by another person. Biographies have been in form of books for a long time. In recent times however, video biography is often used.

People tell their stories through video documentation in video biographies. These stories may include certain aspects of their lives or careers and other major experiences or events. Use of recorded biographies is important as it offers convenience and accessibility. Similarly to books-form biographies, those that are in record form may be auto authored or authored by a different person. In this case, recorded biographies of Isaac Newton and others who lived before this technological era are available.

Through trying to understand where we have come from, we use bits of scattered and sometimes incomplete information. Usually, grand parents are also used as sources of information. Photos which unfortunately may not be dated are also employed. In desperate times, left behind journals or diaries are also used. However, these methods are laden with many limitations and therefore people have resulted to video to document their stories.

When seeking to create a personal documentary, the process begins by choosing a company that is able to offer these services. Individuals and families and sometimes businesses all have their own packages. Interview sessions vary in length but most are up to two hours long. When recording is complete, editing has to be done to remove unnecessary information such as pauses and repetition. It can also be customized depending on what you prefer.

Family histories are important for the immediate family as well as the future generations. The future generations need to understand the values and beliefs their ancestors stood for. The biographies made by video are laced with interviews from family members, home records as well as photographs capturing different moments and experiences of all stages of life.

Individuals may also choose to create their own personal documentary. This is perhaps to tell their story from their own point of view. Stories of career, love and war for veterans may be told. Recording personal stories is used for references in future as well as for gifts to close people and friends. The records may also be kept for the generations in future or even sold for money.

Business and foundations need to also capture their stories on camera. This may include new product releases, expansion to new branches or even relocation. Employees may also appear on the documentary to tell the story of the company. This is archived to remind the company in future of its history, achievements and milestones.

There are different prices for the recording depending on how long and complex the story is. Out of town travel to record may also increase the prices. There are however, cheap options that are available for those with low budgets. This information is stores in DVDs that have a long shelf life. They may be custom printed based on what you prefer.
