This season's story: The Christmas Star, scene by scene
You walk together through a snowy forest at dusk.
A soft glow by the path catches your eye.
In the snow lies a small fallen star.
Its trail of light leads you to a little tree.
You place the star at the top, together.
The forest lights up around you both.
How it works
Pick The Christmas Star, or tell us the memory you want to see as a fairy tale.
One clear photo of each person, your names, and the day you will give the gift.
We send you the two of you as storybook characters. Nothing is made until you are happy with them.
Your film arrives by email as an HD video file, within three days of your approval.
The gift moment
Many frames play video. Tell us your frame's model and we check it before you order.
Play it from a phone, a laptop or a USB stick while everyone is gathered around.
With a small projector, your story can glow in the window for the whole street to see.
Your story stays yours.
