About Me

Lisa Simon
has more than 15 years experience in Journalism, Marketing Communications and E-learning in roles ranging from writer, resume
consultant and project manager. I have interviewed hundreds of people throughout my career for newspaper and newsletter articles,
business videos and online courses. In addition to REMEMBER MEdia, I am also currently a resume consultant where I interview
people about their work experiences. I am a member of the Association
of Personal Historians. I moved from Chicago to Hawaii in 2009.
What I Offer: - Experience and Expertise. For these historical video documentaries, I have an extensive list of
questions – which I tailor for every person – and also have the experience to ask appropriate follow-up questions.
- Equipment.
I will supply a high-end digital camcorder with an additional professional lavaliere microphone. I also use professional editing
software on my Mac to edit the interview and burn DVDs.
- Immediacy. I won’t put this project
off until it’s too late. This is the type of thing many people would love to do, but it’s always the last on their
list and it never gets done.
About
REMEMBER MEdia: I started the company
in 2006. Since then I have interviewed numerous people, providing their families with DVDs as historical mementos. I came
up with the idea for the business because my father had written stories of his life down in a book. I knew my Mom (a healthy
72-year-old at the time) would never do that, but I wanted to capture her stories, so I interviewed her. Then I realized that
other people might also have the best intentions of capturing the personal history of their parents or grandparents, but never
get around to it. I have extensive experience interviewing people and have become adept at video production. I am passionate
about people's history and stories. Since I started my business I realized that capturing personal histories is a growing
industry.
