30 Seconds Of…

Relive your most precious moments in just one short film


“30 Seconds Of” is a project that came out of the pandemic. I noticed that lots of filmmakers I work for had filmed stuff at home, or were going through old home videos and rewatching them.
Many said they wanted to cull down the material into ‘highlight reels’... Yet there is a problem: Who actually manages to wade through hours of footage that shows your loved ones, human and animal alike, no matter how much joy the reminders bring you? Especially when you could spend that time actively creating new memories with your family, pets and friends? The answer: I will do it for you!

My distance allows for a different and more efficient edit. Relive your most precious moments in the form of a professionally edited, emotion-filled short film.

Simply choose your desired length...

• 30 seconds • 1–2 minutes • 3–5 minutes • 5–7 minutes

Submit your material, and go back to your loved ones.

Films are enhanced and delivered in the highest possible quality.

Pour all your favourite home videos into one special edit.

30 seconds of is ideal for...

Holiday videos

Capture the spirit of your holiday in a short video to rewatch whenever you need a happiness boost. That holiday feeling is just one ‘play’ away.

Proposals

Ready to start the rest of your life with this person? Then set the tone with a special, personalised video of the moments you shared. You can also record a voiceover to add a personal message that your loved one will never forget.

Super fast turnaround - far quicker than it would be if I tried to do the same editing job myself. The quality of my original video was enhanced too, which surprised me, and the result was exactly how i'd imagined. Highly recommended service, and I plan to use again.

  • That depends on how much you have and how long you want the video to be. I can work with little, if your material is scarce.

  • I am happy to refine the edit. I want each customer to be 100% happy with their short films, so one round of revisions is included in the quoted price, after this, additional changes are charged at a small fee.

  • There are several great apps that can help you do this. Most smartphones have voice recording software built in, or you can use your phone camera!

  • I typically tell clients to expect their film back within three weeks, this allows for any adjustments and busy periods (eg. Christmas).

    Usually though, your film will appear sooner than this!
