This an interesting post! I have thought about doing the same and I think that the most important questions are those that relate to their past life (rather than opinions) that sadly will die with them.
Questions that I would ask;
1. How did you and grandad meet?
2. Where was your first date?
3. What were the most memorable days in your lives?
4. What is the biggest difference between now and when you were young?
5. Tell me about my mum/dad when they were young?
6. What were your mums and dads like and what do you remember of them?
I have done a video of my daughters first year. It is a combination of video and stills. The only advice I have is avoid subtitled comments, Choose your backing music extremely carefully, change the music at natural pauses in the movie, do not exceed twenty minutes in length and finally, remember that less is more (don't include shots/stills just because the are there!).
That's all from me!
Good luck! |
