Funeral Memorial Tribute Videos - a
Great Way to Honor Your Loved One
By Chad Wiley
"Long, long be my heart with such memories fill'd!"
~ Thomas Moore.
When a loved one passes away, those left behind feel
like honoring the deceased soul and cherishing the
moments spent together. Funeral memorial video tribute
serves as an apt and special way of doing so. These
videos are generally showed during the principal funeral
ceremony and sometimes at a visitation or the funeral
service held at the funeral home or church.
These videos are composed with still images of the loved
one during happy moments. The plain photographs are
attributed with some picturesque natural scenes in the
background. The images are given titles and a soft and
appeasing background music is added to soothe the souls
of the dear ones who have undergone the loss. Scenes of
nature and soft music generally bring about a feeling in
the mourners that life has greater connotations even in
comparison to something like death.
The principal aim of designing a funeral memorial video
tribute is to assist the bereaved family and friends in
reminiscing the life of the loved one. Sensitively
composed memorial videos can be a great comfort to the
mourning family and friends when no words are
appropriate to console the pained souls.
This video acts as a treasured keepsake for the bereaved
family, to preserve the memories and to cherish them
forever. This can be passed down the family tree in the
generations to come.
There are professionals who can compose and design
funeral memorial videos in a customized manner keeping
the specific requirements of each bereaved family in
mind.
The general composition of a funeral video tribute
comprises of a sequence of still pictures of the loved
one matched with appropriate titles, prayers, poems,
background scenes and background music. If anyone, among
the family and friends, remembers anecdotes connected to
some of the photographs, those can also accompany the
photographs in the video in the form of a few sentences.
A standard memorial video tribute has the duration of
ten to tweleve minutes. Carefully chosen music
accompanies the pictures of the deceased as they appear
and disappear on the picturesque backgrounds. The
standard number of pictures included in such a video
ranges from twenty to thirty. But they can be increased
according to the preference of the mourning family and
the music pieces can be accordingly lengthened.
As such a video is normally meant to be played during a
visitation or the funeral service, the average time
available for the entire design and composition of the
video is three to five days. The mourning family needs
to provide the professionals with the photographs of the
deceased, as early as possible, so that the composition
of the video can be started with. In the present age,
uploading the chosen photographs on the website of the
professionals entrusted with the job, suffice. This
saves time and enables the designers to get going
immediately.
In this way, proper planning and sensitive selection
enable the bereaved family and friends to pay a
heartfelt tribute to the life the deceased lived. Such a
tribute ceremoniously celebrates the life of the loved
one at the funeral.
