| What To Expect |
| All interview sessions will be about two hours long. This is enough time to get some real work done without over extending anyone. The following is a very general description of how I see the project progressing. Since this is a learning process, none of this is carved in stone. This is a starting point only. Where it goes from here is as unique and individual as your life. The first interview session will be an initial consultation to discuss the following: General Scope of the project including: Length of time, duration of the project, drop date if applicable Final Product Size Format and presentation Publication and distribution Structure Time Line Stories to Include Photos and graphics General Tone Family Tree Scheduling availability of all parties Initial biography for Timeline and/or Family Tree Inventory of possible items to include Legal documents; birth, death, marriage, graduation and professional certificates Written documents: Letters, diaries, journals, newspaper and magazine articles Heirlooms and Memorabilia: Clothing items, craft or art projects, awards, collections Photographs Important occasions Important people Treasured moments Favorite pets Important homes and places The second session will include: Preliminary schedule First draft of the Scope of the project First draft of the initial biography First recorded interview The third session will include: A revised schedule based on the previous session A revised Scope of the project based on the previous session One (1) hard copy first draft of the previous session's recorded interview One (1) hard copy of any items scanned or photographed from the previous session Interview time as available The fourth session will include: A tentative final schedule A final Scope of the project One (1) hard copy first draft of the previous session's recorded interview One (1) hard copy of any items scanned or photographed from the previous session Interview time as available As time goes on and we learn to work together as a team, more time will be spent in actual recording and less with setting up the project.
