Local History

Many towns and villages have enthusiast or societies that are researching into their community history. A DVD is probably the best and most cost effective way of display your findings and images to the people of the area.

We produced Memories of Luton Village in Kent back in 2002 as a video and we have recently updated on to a DVD which is still selling well at a price of £10.

We are currently involved in the editing and the production of 1000 DVDs as well as filming support for local history group in a marshland village in Lincolnshire.

Old and archive photographs and documents can be captured and converted for incorporating in the DVD along with video of buildings and places of interest still around today. A great source for information is Interviews with people of the community especially the memories of the older generation that will soon be lost for ever if not recorded.

Depending on the amount of editing work involved the overall cost for a project producing 1000 DVDs is likely to be around £3 to £4 per DVD.

Most Local History DVDs sell for between £10 and £19.95 and there are many opportunities to receive subsidies and grants for this type of project.
