Here is an example of using video to add some punch to a retirement party. The Last Cut transformed years and years of photos into an eloquent homage to memorialize the contributions the retiree had made to his company. In addition, we created and combined video clips of "farewells" from fellow employees. The final product, a 30 minute video, ran during a farewell celebration to bring back memories and recognize the achievements of the honored guest. The video was given to the retiree with thanks for his many contributions over the years. Needless to say, he was touched by the recognition and good wishes.
You can take this idea and run with it: Make a "Behind the Music" video for your child. Create a "True Hollywood Story" for your spouse. Or write a "Love Story" for a 50th wedding anniversary couple. The ideas are endless when it comes to surprising someone with a video of their life! The Last Cut can help you with creative ideas and scenarios, including script-writing. We've been doing this for over 10 years.
