Frequently Asked Questions

We have listed the most common questions and their answers below for your convenience...

Why give a Shoebox 2 Video Creation as a gift?

A Shoebox 2 Video Creation makes a great gift for someone who has everything, and is much more thoughtful and moving than a gift from the mall.

What if I want to keep the Creation for myself?

It's not necessary for you to give your Creation to another person, but if you do you can always get extra copies for yourself or family and friends.

How long does the average project take?

Most jobs can be completed in five business days, though we do offer a 48 hour rush service.

Can't I do a slide show myself on my PC?

If you want to invest in a high performance pc, scanner, video transfer hardware, video editing software, dvd burner and go through the learning curve needed to create a slide show, you can do it.  Whether it will look as artistic and finished as you would like depend on your ability and years of practice.  Let us create your slide show to save your valuable time and you will have a high quality product in less than a week.  

What kind of DVD does the product come on?

We use a high quality DVD-R that can be played on over 90% of the DVD players sold today.  If DVD media is not preferred, we can also output the show onto a VHS tape.

What kind of music format can be used?

Music used for slide shows needs to be on the original CD or can be on a copied CD, only if you own the original music source.
