Filming Grandma

Film Grandma at work in her own kitchen. We like films that concentrate on the grandma as much as the food. Ask her to share the secrets and stories related to the cooking.

You could...

Make an interview with your gran before she starts cooking. Later when you are editing the film you can overlay the audio of the cooking instructions and stories over film of her cooking.

Edit Film

Use your favourite software like imovie to edit the film to less than 10mins.

Compress film

We're using YouTube.com to host all the videos.

To upload you film to youtube it must be less than 10 mins long and 100MB in size.

For best results we'd recommend outputing your film at 320 X 240 px compressed as .mp4.
