The footage to gather
- An artwork or notebook
- A permitted performance clip
- The child's own reflection
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a recorded family message
Opening
Let the speaker address the recipient directly.
Middle
Keep one complete thought from each speaker and use relevant memories as supporting images.
Ending
Preserve the final wish or greeting in the speaker’s own voice.
Review it for school memories
Follow the school's sharing rules and exclude other children without permission.
Ask yourself: Have you kept the tone and meaning of each contribution?
Watch it as if you were seeing it for the first time. If something is unclear, try a different cut or add the missing shot.
