The Archive reviews
19I heard Daniel’s story through a radio interview. He has a real passion for retaining the stories of people in a way that can be preserved and shared. He handled both sets of parents with respect and gentleness to make the process enjoyable and the final product fantastic. It’s a small price to pay compared to the investment of a lifetime.
So glad my family will have a unique video recording of my mothers recollections to treasure for years to come. Thank you The Archive for the amazing memories you captured and your professionalism through the process I would not hesitate to recommend
A video biography is a wonderful way to document your life. Daniel made the process fun and simple with searching questions and delivered a beautifully finished product. Highly recommended.
My experience with Daniel was nothing short of phenomenal.
I learnt so much about my family member and it has served as a gateway for some deeper conversations, connection and understanding of so many components of our relationship and my family member's sense of self.
Daniel's interviewing skills were of such a high standard that I almost forgot I was watching someone I knew. I became so immersed in the story that it felt like I was watching an interview of a fascinating historical icon. It's a rare gift to be able to present an 'every day' person's life experiences this way.
Even though the interview video was 90 minutes long, the content and production made it so breezy and fast-paced that I could have just kept watching and learning.
I would absolutely recommend Daniel and The Archive experience to anyone looking to document their own experiences, or that of a loved one.
Thank you Daniel. I will treasure this forever.
Couldn't be happier with the end result. I was amazed how easy the whole process was. My family love it
I was very impressed with the service and how easy the process was. The results at the end were great too.
I've already recommended The Archive to a few friends, it was definitely worth it!
I got my grandma (very old) an interview with Daniel and the experience was amazing! The whole idea and purpose of the business is just so great and I have not come across any service like this before. Daniel is a really skillful interviewer with so much patience, compassion, open mindedness and sincere curiosity. You can feel how passionate Daniel is about his work and it’s impact. My grandma felt really comfortable and absolutely loved having a chat with him. The feeling of keeping all her stories in such a great format makes me so happy. Very positive experience all in all and I believe it was the best present for my grandma! I have not seen her that exited in a long time. Already recommended to many of my friends and collegues!
I had been meaning to do this for years and finally got around to it and I'm so glad I did! Turns out there was so much I didn't know about my grandma’s youth. The whole process was incredibly easy, I'd recommend anyone sitting on the fence to do it. Thanks so much!
I bought an in interview with Daniel for both of my grandparents.
Both of them had a awesome experience doing a video together and individual. They felt very welcome and comfortable with Daniel interview style.
The video production was beyond beautiful ️ Thank you Daniel!
I'm so grateful my family has our grandfather's story preserved. I would've done it much earlier had I known this service was even available.
Having the opportunity to be involved in discussing the ins and outs of being a nurse was awesome. Daniel put me at ease straight away as talking on camera is definitely out of my comfort zone. Daniel was patient, considerate and at the end of the recording, we were talking about his business card and how they came about, such a sad but interesting story. Such an amazing business and I have already referred Daniel and The Archive onto friends.
Using The Archive is a fantastic opportunity to pass on your story to the future generations. The expert interviewing skills that Dan possess makes the overall experience seamless.
The Archive is a fantastic opportunity to document in perpetuity the important events in your life, or that of a loved one. Dan is a compassionate and knowledgable interviewer, and an absolute pleasure to work with.
Highly recommended
The archive is an amazing concept. However if it weren't for the understanding, kindness, compassion and professionalism of Daniel the experience would not be nearly as excellent. I still can't get over how cool it is to have my own autobiographical movie to be passed down through the generations. Highly recommend.
Wanted a unique gift for my girlfriend's birthday so got her this, and we couldn't be happier with the high quality final product. She thoroughly enjoyed the interview experience with Daniel, as well as the opportunity to reflect on some very profound and personal questions about her life. She was glowing afterwards - highly recommend!
Daniel was extremely accommodating while also being extremely amenable. He was kind and patient and made the whole filming experience feel very relaxed and easy.
The idea of archiving people's stories on film is amazing and Daniel is doing it with such dedication and respect.
100% do recommend. Get your family and friends to tell their story.
I took part in a compilation The Archive was producing to listen to the thoughts and opinions of everyday people. It turned out to be an an amazing and rewarding experience. It's going to be so cool to watch it back in twenty years to see how much (or little) I've changed. Would highly recommend it. Only takes an hour or so and will easily become one of your most valuable resources
What a great project idea! So much fun to go in and just talk about yourself and answer those big life questions. Plus, its all on film as a beautiful keepsake for the rest of your life! Would recommend to anyone to give it a go:)
Very innovative idea and such a good idea for a gift! Nothing but helpfulness on their side - couldn't suggest it more
