STORY CAPTURES
Interviewees provide the stories behind pictures of people, places, and things. IMAGE PROMPTS (below) must be included.
► See Story Captures samples here (new tab).
TOURS
Posterecord on the road, whether it be traveling around town or to another town entirely. Capture as much or as little as you want – the travel to, from and/or around the destination itself. Audio recording available in vehicle. Video recording available in and/or on (outside) vehicle.
► Tour samples TBA.
IN PERSON
In Person recording of Interview and/or Story Capture at site of your choice/our suggestion. Best choice for audio/video quality.
► Look for John & Gretchen (interior) and Brian & Isabelle (exterior) Interviews here (new tab).
VIRTUAL
Virtual (online) version of recording of Interview and/or Story Capture, administered off-site by Posterecord. Interviewees will need their own device(s) (ideally computer with camera) and connection to internet (ideally wifi). Print/object capture should be done before Recording Day. Best for larger groups, and/or to include friends and family from out of town.
