Once your films are edited and ready to go (about three weeks), we’ll send you an email with a download link. We highly recommend you back up your films in at least two different places - we’ll keep them backed up for six months, but after that, it’s all yours!

We use brand new Panasonic camcorders. This way we’re able to ensure they’re as reliable as possible (within reason - see “what happens if something goes wrong?” below) while still giving you that camcorder look, with all the movement and zoom ins of 90s home videos. We add the vibe in editing so that you can get the vintage look you love (or a black and white or modern vibe) while not having to worry about a 30 year old camcorder breaking down!

Not at all! These camcorders are set up so that a kid could use them (which we highly recommend, they get AWESOME footage, and also sometimes a lot of feet…) and our tutorials will help even the drunkest groomsman get the best/worst footage. This is not going to be a professional video (if you’re looking for that, check out our cool older cousins, Paper Heart Films), and that’s a huge part of the appeal.

Yes, kind of! For your teaser film, we exclusively use music that we can properly license, so that we’re not stealing from musicians and your film isn’t getting taken down off the internet (and no one gets sued). That being said, we have a big library of songs from our licensing site for you to choose from, so you can make sure you get the fun/silly/romantic/70s/90s/etc. vibe you want.

To start, we use new camcorders and always include extra batteries and cards (which we regularly test and maintain) to make sure that everything is in tip top shape. But shit happens! If something seems off about your camcorder, first of all, try changing out the battery and the card. If that doesn’t fix it, call the support number we sent you. We’ll do everything we can to fix it, but if it can’t be fixed, we’ll refund your money. This isn’t something we anticipate happening, but unfortunately is part of the risk of not having a professional there with backup equipment. If you’re super nervous about that, you can always add a second camcorder to your order (which also allows you to film in two places at once)!
