How Families Can Create Tribute Videos at Funeral Homes

Would you and your family like to create a tribute video for a loved one so that you can play it during their funeral services at one of the funeral homes in North Port, FL? It might be difficult for you to find the time to do it while you’re busy making funeral arrangements for them. But there are a few simple steps that you can take in conjunction with your funeral home to bring this idea to life. Here is how families can create tribute videos for their loved ones at funeral homes.

Find a bunch of photos of your loved one.

Before you can begin trying to piece together a tribute video for your loved one, you’re going to need to get your hands on a bunch of photos of them. You might be able to find a box of old family photos up in your loved one’s attic or down in their basement. You might also need to put out an open call and ask your fellow family members to look for photos of your loved one and supply them to you. Whatever the case, you should try to track down as many photos of your loved one as you possibly can.

Sort through your loved one’s photos and find the best ones.

Once you have a large collection of photos of your loved one, you should sift through them and pick out the ones that you and your family members like the most. You’re probably not going to be able to include each and every photo, but you should be able to work a lot of them into the mix. You should try to get photos from a variety of different time periods in your loved one’s life.

Ask your funeral home to help you turn the photos into a tribute video.

As we alluded to earlier, you’re not going to have a lot of extra time to create a tribute video for your loved one yourself. You are, after all, going to be busy making North Port, FL funeral arrangements for them. But your funeral home should be more than happy to help you create the perfect tribute video for your loved one using the photos that you provide for them. You should make sure that they’re going to be able to do this early on in the funeral planning process. You should also make sure that they’re going to be able to create copies of your tribute video for those who want one when it’s all finished.

Select the right songs to play during the tribute video.

While you’re not going to play an active role in the creation of your loved one’s tribute video, one thing that you can do is choose some songs that you would like to hear played during it. These songs should hold some special significance to either your loved one or your family as a whole. Your funeral home shouldn’t have any issues taking the songs and using them to soundtrack your loved one’s tribute video.
