Real to Reel will help you tell your personal history, the stories of your life, recorded for your family, friends, and future generations.
There’s no such thing as an uninteresting life, such a thing is an impossibility. Beneath the dullest exterior, there is a drama, a comedy, a tragedy.
Mark Twain
What is Personal History?
Personal History, also known as a memoir or legacy, is the stories of your life, recorded for your family, friends, and future generations. Stories that ONLY YOU can tell! This can take many forms, and I specialize in capturing your stories in your actual, unique voice.
- Only YOU can describe what it was like to ride your cool, blue bike around town.
- Only YOU can explain your job at the malt shop that earned you enough to buy the 1964 Mustang.
- Only YOU know what it was about that guy in your History class who swept you off your feet.
The answers to these and other questions are your personal history.
I believe the soul is contained in the voice.
Dave Isay, founder of Story Corps, on his passion for capturing oral histories
This is my belief as well and it is why I specialize in Personal Histories that preserve the actual voice of the storyteller.
