Family Oral History Films

A voice is more than a photograph. We sit down with someone you love, record their memories properly, and shape the strongest parts into a film your family can keep.

How it works

Easy for the family. Thoughtful for the person speaking.

01

Tell us who

Send a booking request and a little context about the person and their story.

02

Plan gently

We talk before filming and prepare prompts rather than dropping in with a generic list of questions.

03

Record properly

A relaxed two-hour session with professional video and audio, usually in a familiar place.

04

Keep the story

We edit the strongest material into a 30+ minute film and deliver it privately on USB and digitally.

Your family film starts private.

Privacy is not hidden in fine print

You decide what happens after filming.

Buying a family film does not give Katha Hijo Ko automatic permission to publish it. The person being interviewed is asked separately for recording and future-use permission.

Private family film — the standard/default choice.
Private Katha Hijo Ko archive — only if the participant expressly agrees.
Public Katha Hijo Ko / YouTube — only through a separate explicit participant release.
Marketing use is separate again. Public storytelling permission does not automatically mean advertising permission.

Request a booking

Whose story do you want to keep?

You do not need to create an account. Send the request, we review the location and story, and then confirm the production details with you in writing.

The legal seller is Sujan. Katha Hijo Ko is the project identity for this oral-history work.

1. Your details

The person arranging the production.

2. Who are we recording?

The person being interviewed must give their own recording/use permission before filming.

3. Where and when?

A preferred date is not a confirmed booking until we agree it with you.

4. Tell us about the story

5. Privacy and possible future use

These answers tell us your current preference. They do not give Katha Hijo Ko permission to publish the participant. A separate participant permission is required.

Marketing preference — also not a release:

6. Before you send

No card details or payment are collected in this form. We confirm the scope, date and payment terms with you before the production is booked.
