The Family Interview Kit — 50 questions and a filmmaker's guide to recording the people you love, on the phone in your pocket.

Cover of Stories Worth Keeping: The Family Interview Kit
What's inside

Twelve printable pages

  • 50 questions in ten chapters — from childhood to the advice they'd leave behind
  • How to ask so people tell stories, not just facts
  • How to film it on a phone: light, sound, framing, and a simple room diagram
  • How to keep the recording safe once it's made

Thanksgiving and Christmas are the two times a year families sit in one room. This year, press record.

You'll get the download right away. I'll send an occasional note about new films — never spam.

Rather leave it to a filmmaker?
