Using the best portable recording equipment available, I spend two hours recording people’s stories. Their life, their struggles, their dreams and their adventures. It is a guided interview and I have been told dozens of times by people that it is a thoroughly pleasurable experience.
I then take the recording away and edit it a little. Mostly I am removing my questions and my voice from the recording and making it a seamless story. Once finished the recording is then transferred to a flash drive and delivered to the client. From beginning to end the process takes about one and a half to two days.
Clients are often children of older people and they require multiple copies of the recording for siblings, which is arranged beforehand. I do not keep a copy.
The service usually costs about $350 but that does vary a little according to recording times, travel, copies made and a few other things. If I don’t have to travel too far and only two copies are required and the recording only takes two hours then the fee is often a little under that.
