What is a Memorial Tribute Video?
Also commonly called Memorial Slideshows, Visual Tribute or Remembrance Videos, these are a visual presentation often accompanied by music, featuring pictures of the deceased. They are becoming increasingly popular in both traditional style funerals and contemporary memorial celebrations. Often played through a large TV or projection as part of the ceremony.
Where and when is it played
There are many ways to include a memorial tribute video into your funeral or memorial celebration. If you are working with a Celebrant or Funeral Director, they will advise you, however, three popular ways are:
- At the beginning as guests arrive, to help them settle and provide reflection.
- During the service, sometimes played without music, as a backdrop to a reading or the eulogy.
- At the end of the ceremony for guests to have their own personal moment of reflection.
How do I create one?
