Special occasions are a perfect time to tell your story. A Photo Video Montage combines your favorite photographs or slides with your choice of music to create a memorable presentation.

A custom-made Photo Video Montage can be a great addition to your personal or business event:

Give us a call at any time in the process; we are here to help you.

Preparing your montage

The length of your montage will be determined by the number of photos you choose. 10 pictures equals about 1 minute of video. The average photo montage is about 10-15 minutes long, or 100-150 photos.

Follow these simple steps:

  1. Sort: Select your photos by creating Yes and No piles. Don't spend too long on any one photo; go with your first impression. Remember, the best photos make the best video.
  2. Number: You can arrange the photos in chronological order, or group them by event or subject. Put your photos in the order you choose and write the number either directly on the back of the photo or on a sticky note. Be sure to use pencil, not pen, so the ink doesn't come off on another photo.
  3. Music & Titles: Based on the estimated length of your project, choose enough music to fill the time. Select music that is meaningful or conveys the mood of the project. You may also include titles, quotes, poems, etc.

Be creative! If you can dream it, we can make it. Use medals, video or film clips, voice recordings, newspaper clippings, scrapbook pages, whatever helps you tell your story.
