Knowing and sharing the story of “why you are” is just as important as “who you are” or “where you’re from”. Sharing one’s geographic heritage is important, but how do you explain your love for caring for people, teaching/mentoring, the love of the outdoors, the love for your faith or your creativity? Knowing one’s family stories creates meaning that goes beyond the individual to provide a sense of self, through time, and in relation to family.

A lifetime of stories, which ones are your favorites ?

We’re dedicated to helping the most amazing accomplishments, experiences and accomplishments of you and your family span generations.  We’re not the production company you choose for livestreaming, business videos, your daughters wedding, or product commercials, (though we can recomend some experts), we’re more concerned and focused on the life stories that lead to an event, vs. the day-of event itself.

We’ve organized our Story Capsules gifts and investments based on the following common themes. 

Legacy Stories

Your life story is like your fingerprint—100 percent unique to you. We create cinematic documentary films that capture your experiences, your perspectives, and the character-defining moments that shaped you. Give your grandchildren, great-grandchildren and beyond the opportunity to get to know you personally by hearing you tell your stories in your unique voice.

Entrepreneur Stories

Entrepreneurship taught you a lot of lessons about business, people, and about life. Share those lessons and inspire future leaders by documenting your unique story in a cinematic short film all about you: your inspirations, your choices, your setbacks and your successes. You have a legacy of making smart decisions, and the best way to preserve that legacy is by passing your most valuable asset—your knowledge and insight—onto future generations of business builders and leaders.

CEO Stories

An individual becomes a CEO because they have a dream, a goal, and they invest everything they’ve got into bringing that dream to life. That takes character. Celebrate your CEO’s achievements and inspire the whole team with their character in a cinematic short film about them as a person—who they really are, how their role models shaped them, their family, and how they give back to their company and community.

Engagement Stories

You’re starting a new chapter, but not a new story. You carry years’ worth of photos and videos right in your pocket, the photos and videos that captured the key moments that defined your relationship—and the fun you’ve had along the way! Don’t leave them languishing in the digital version of a shoebox on a shelf…through your unique cinematic short film, they can live on forever and inspire your children, grandchildren, and beyond by showing them a unique glimpse at your first years together.

Anniversary Stories

After 30, 40, or even 50 years together, you know a thing or two about marriage. You’ve created the blueprint for a life together that others aspire to have. Celebrate the lives you’ve created together in a cinematic short film that documents where you started, where life has taken you, where you are today, and the legacy you’re leaving to your children, grandchildren, and generations to come.

9 Month Stories

From the moment you got that positive test, you knew your life would change forever. And this is just the first change—once your child is born, you begin a lifelong journey of firsts. The first month. The first word. The first year. But before those firsts, you have nine short, unique months of changes. Nine months of planning and dreaming and hoping for the future. Document these months and everything you think, feel, and experience throughout them in a unique short film about your pregnancy journey. This is the first chapter in your story as a parent—commemorate it in a film you and your family will cherish forever.

Mitzvah Stories

Just yesterday, you brought your new baby home. And today, you’re the proud parent of a young man or woman. Where did the time go? What have you taught them—and what have they taught you?

Celebrate your child’s Bar or Bat Mitzvah with a unique cinematic short film that celebrates them and their commitment to their faith. Their film will document who they are right now, who they aspire to be in the future, and what they’re thinking and feeling right now as they stand at the precipice between childhood and adulthood.

Graduation Stories

You did it! After years of late nights, long lectures, inspiring teachers, and friendships that will last a lifetime, you’ve finally got that diploma in hand, ready to face whatever life throws your way next.

Years from now, you’ll remember the big-picture parts of your school days. But you might not remember exactly how you felt right now. Keep your story from getting lost in the years by capturing it in a cinematic quality short film. In the film, you’ll get to reflect on everything that led up to this moment: your decision to pursue the field you pursued, why you chose your university, and those moments that reminded you exactly why you chose this path.

Military Service Stories

There is no greater honor than serving your country. Your story is one of honor, service and sacrifice, and it’s an irreplaceable part of our nation’s history. By documenting your military service story and others in state-of-the-art cinematic quality, we’re ensuring that these stories are never forgotten.

COVID Stories

The COVID-19 pandemic changed all of our lives. No matter where you were in life at that point, those two years are frozen in time forever. Which shows did you binge? How did your family handle the holidays? And did you have to put any big life events, like your wedding, on hold? By documenting your unique COVID story, we’re documenting history.

Home movies bring storytelling to life and lets stories be seen, rather than told. Join us on a journey to discover creative, unique, and engaging techniques that tell your family story while bringing your photos and videos to life.

Everybody is a story. When I was a child, people sat around kitchen tables and told their stories. We don't do that so much anymore. Sitting around the table telling stories is not just a way of passing time. It is the way the wisdom gets passed along. The stuff that helps us to live a life worth remembering.”
- Graham Greene, novelist and author

SOME COMMON questions on OUR PACKAGES ...

1.ARE THESE PACKAGES ALL DIFFERENT INVESTMENT COSTS?

We have a suite of packages based on duration of the intended film. For the most part, our full stories are just shy of 60minute. For shorter more specific stories, we offer shorter duration pricing as well as fun ways to add to your movie such as including remote captures for distanced contributors, or maybe a lighthearted bloopers reel, or maybe a conversation between more than 1 family member.

2.What if I HAVE A DIFFERENT STORY TO TELL THAT DOESNT FIT INTO ON THESE THEMEs?

Our lives are filled with stories that are as unique as the storyteller. The stories above are the most popular and common, but we’d be happy to talk about other personal stories that you’re most proud of.

3.How do I plan and organize my thoughts, stories and media?

Happy to walk you through the process, in short we have a tried-n-true process that honors the lessons we want to convey. Our planning process combines direction from you and your family and highlight the best stories that also have the best photo and video assets to bring that story segment to life.

4.What makes story capsule better than just using my fancy phone and a tripod?

Your phone takes amazing videos, but our phones are the photo shoebox of today. We create a docu-story that stand’s on it’s own and will live on for generations. We also film with multiple HD clarity cameras with a soft cinematic aesthetic that’s speaks to the high quality of our capsules. Our process also helps capture stages of your life and represent them as lessons and stories to inspire generations.

5.Can you video my upcoming event or for my business?

Our Story Capsule films serve to collect and share events and stories that have already happened to the person being honored. That’s what really separates our offering to a more traditional wedding or event production companys. For business videos, we’d like to introduce you to Gravitude Brand Lab, our partner company that would love to help you with your business.
