At The Life Chronicles, we offer several different packages designed to help you preserve your story — your voice, your personality, your legacy. Whether you’re looking for a filmed documentary, an audio portrait, or something in between, we have options to suit your needs.
If you don’t see a package that fits exactly what you’re looking for — budget, length, format, or content — we’re happy to work with you to tailor something special. Reach out anytime; let’s make your story one you’ll want to share and pass down.
Video or Podcast? Choosing the Right Format for Your Story
When it comes to preserving personal stories, there’s no single “right” format. Some stories shine when they’re seen, others when they’re heard — and sometimes the most powerful choice is to combine both. At The Life Chronicles, every package we offer can be created as a video, a podcast-style audio recording, or a combination of the two.
🎥 Why Choose Video?
Video captures more than words — it preserves expressions, gestures, and the environment where the story is told. Seeing someone’s eyes light up when they describe a childhood memory, or the way their hands move as they explain an important moment, adds depth that audio alone can’t always convey.
Video is a wonderful choice if you want:
- A visual record of the storyteller for future generations.
- To include family photos, home movies, or memorabilia woven into the story.
- A keepsake that feels like a mini-documentary, rich with presence and detail.
🎙 Why Choose Podcast-Style Audio?
Audio strips a story down to its essence: the voice. Without visuals, listeners often feel a deeper connection, imagining scenes and focusing on tone, pauses, and emotion.
Podcast-style storytelling is perfect if you want:
- A casual, intimate format that feels like sitting down for a conversation.
- Something that’s easy to share and listen to anywhere.
- To reduce cost and complexity compared to full video production.
🔀 Why Not Both?
For many people, the ideal option is a hybrid: record video and audio together. This way you can have a polished film to share with family, plus an audio-only version for easy listening on the go. Nothing extra is required during the interview — the two formats are captured at the same time.
The Choice Is Yours
Every Life Chronicles package — whether short portrait or full documentary — can be created in video, audio, or both.
If you’re not sure which format best fits your vision, we’re happy to guide you through the options. The important thing is that your story gets told, in a way that feels right for you.
Because whether it’s seen, heard, or both, your story matters — and it deserves to be remembered. ❤️
