A farewell film for a new chapter

For a colleague leaving, a friend moving overseas or anyone starting something new, gather what people will miss and what they wish for them.

How it works

1. Create the event in the app with their name and a photo, and a date for memories to be in by.
2. Invite everyone who know them by email from your contacts, or share one link in a group chat. You'll see who has opened, joined and shared.
3. Everyone answers a different question with a video message, a voice note, photos, a story or a quote, from the app or any web browser. No account needed.
4. Make the film and the book. The moments are chosen, ordered and set to music. Preview free, change anything, re-make it as more memories arrive.
5. Unlock and share the full HD film for the farewell and the photo book, and order printed copies.

The kind of questions people are asked

• Tell us a story about Sam that still makes you laugh.
• Share a favourite photo with Sam and tell us the story behind it.
• Record a message for Sam: what do you want them to hear today?
• Describe Sam in three words, and tell us why.
• How did you and Sam meet? First impressions welcome.
• What's your earliest memory of Sam?
• What was Sam like as a kid?
• What's Sam like when they walk into a room?

Each person is offered three, chosen for how they know Sam. Most can only be answered once, so the stories don't repeat. More question ideas.

When to start

One to two weeks before they leave.

Tips

• A shared link in the group chat is the quickest way to reach everyone.
