Can it stay a surprise?
Yes. Many anniversary films are a surprise for the founder or the family. We work only with whoever briefs us, share cuts through private links and never show a film anywhere before you do. We sign an NDA if you need one.
All we have is a box of old photos. Is that enough?
Usually, yes. Old photos, even a phone picture of each one, a VHS tape, the first catalogue, a letter, a recording of the founder. We clean it all up and build the film around it. Send what you have and we will tell you straight away what we can make of it.
Can the founder tell it in their own voice?
Yes, and it is the part people remember. An interview on a video call, an old tape or a voice note is enough. We clean up the sound and set it to the photos and footage of the time.
Will it work at a fair, with the sound off?
Yes. The fair version carries its subtitles in the picture, so the stand screen tells the story in a noisy hall, and a loop version runs all day without a visible start or end. The full film with sound is for the meeting table.
Do you use AI?
Yes, openly. We use the newest tools to restore old photos and recordings, to recreate moments nobody filmed and for the narration and music, alongside design and edit we do by hand. People direct and finish every frame, and you see and approve every scene before the film is locked. We pick tools whose terms allow commercial use, and we ask before any of your private material goes near one.
Who owns the finished film?
You do. On final payment you get the full rights to use the film anywhere, for as long as you like. Music is original or properly licensed, so nothing gets taken down later.
Do you come and film us?
Rarely needed. We build the film from your archive, your own footage, photos of today and generated imagery. When a scene truly needs a camera and a crew, in the workshop or at the party, we say so up front and quote it separately.
How fast can you really go?
A first cut in five working days as standard, or in 48 hours with Express. Tell us the date of the party or the fair and we plan back from it; most films wrap within two weeks of the brief.
What if we do not like the first cut?
You approve the script and the look before anything is animated, so the first cut rarely surprises anyone. Two rounds of notes are included, and further rounds are available if you need them.
Which languages can you do?
Italian, English and the languages of your customers abroad, in voice, captions and on-screen text. Italian and English are checked by native speakers in the studio; for other languages we ask a native speaker on your side to sign off.
Where are you based?
Between Italy and London. We work with companies anywhere, by email and a shared link, and we are happy to come to the premiere.
