LIVE STREAMING has become popular since Covid-19. This is a specialised service we can provide. Beaware though as many venues may provide streaming however, they are usually a CCTV camera style recording from the back which is quite unlike the professional video camera streaming service we provide. In most cases we can provide both LIVE STREAMING of the funeral and film in D video which is fully edited ready online to view with a USB high quality reliable copy. You may also find that we are the lowest on price. This is because our Funeral Video Service has been a core part of our video service for over a decade providing true value for money.
FUNERAL VIDEO
HOW WE FILM THE FUNERAL SERVICE
Attire will be formal smart suites, filming will be of a discrete nature with careful consideration and respect shown to all funeral guests. Professional broadcast cameras used. Edited thoroughly often from two camera sources. Supplied on USB, DVD or other formats at request. Included upload to online channel, private or public.
Every funeral video will personally tailored, there is however a similar procedure which works best as follows:
Main Funeral Service
Normally the service held at the place of worship be it church cathedral synagogue temple memorial hall or mosque, the main funeral event will be recorded. Without a funeral video recording it can be difficult to remember the words spoken afterwards, the video records and provides a lasting loving memory spoken by clergy, family, relatives and friends celebrating the deceased persons life.
Start from the Home
Most bereaved families prefer more funeral video coverage, often the funeral video will start from the home filming family and friends waiting for the funeral hearse or horse and carriage an alternative method of coffin transportation. The cortège precession slowly moving along the road, the video recording continues for the main service where friends and family will be waiting, followed by the Order of Service.
Crematorium
The cortège may move to a crematorium for the 'main' service or final service if the main service was held at a place of worship. This will be captured again with more words spoken.
Robin Hood Cemetery in Hall Green
We're very familiar with Sutton Crematorium. Click the image for more details.
Interment
Burials are emotive and provide last moments to visually say goodbye making a visual impact in video with the lowering of the coffin.
Refreshments
Many funerals will then move on to a hall, house or venue for refreshments or wake. In a more relaxed environment guests can meet, relax, eat, drink and catch-up with friends and relatives not seen for a long time, many bearing personal memories to share.
Robin Hood Golf Club near to Robin Hood cemetery makes an ideal venue.
Key points - Having attended many funerals filming is very discrete, personal attire will be appropriate to the occasion, the cameraman will fit in discretely amongst and be part of the guests except filming the church or crematorium service when the camera will be tripod mounted. As many of the funeral stages will be filmed as required , the home, the church service, the crematorium or cemetery interment burial and the reception of guests afterwards for refreshments.
PRICE
Kept to the lowest price for a good reason, most customers return numerous times for other types of service we provide hopefully more joyous such as a wedding. Please contact us for details as we can tailor the video service to your requirements, as a guide we will travel nationally, but for lowest price local will include video coverage live-streaming and editing in Stratford-upon-Avon, south Warwickshire, Coventry, south Birmingham & south West Midlands, parts of Worcestershire and Hereford, cost ranges from £225 to £500 for the full all inclusive video record live stream edit online and hard copy.

If your service is held at a synagogue in Golders Green London the price will be a little more for travel but please don't let put you off contacting us; we've travelled from Scotland to Essex to bring our renouned expertise regardless of location.
