Fathers Day Video: Remembering Dad (A Family History Interview Video Example)

7 years ago

Here's an example of a very easy to create family history video. It took me less than an hour start to finish. My husband Bill does not enjoy being on camera, and if I add an interview to the scenerio, I have an even bigger challenge on my hands. Does that sound like anyone in your family?

Getting a family member to sit down and answer questions about their life or an ancestor they remember can be an uphill battle, but the climb is worth it. Each one of us has a very unique view of the world. Even though we may remember the same person, our memories and feelings will be distinctly individual, and therefore are worth capturing.

With Father's Day is just around the corner, and we have a new granddaughter joining our family next month. Now seemed like the perfect time to quickly cobble together an interview video with Bill sharing his memories about his dad. I shared some old photos with him and captured his memories.

I hope you this has inspired you my friends to capture your family's memories!
