PORTRAITS THAT MOVE KEEPS SUMMER VACATION ALIVE YEAR-ROUND
Award-Winning Filmmaker Creates Mini Movies of Families Enjoying Time-Off; Available on the East Coast as of Summer 2015
NEW YORK, NY (June 9, 2015) — Fireflies, campfires, romping on the beach, playing tag in the backyard, riding bikes around the neighborhood – those special summer moments seem to slip away too quickly. Now, Portraits That Move, a Brooklyn-based company that creates compelling mini documentary videos of young children, is introducing a way to counteract the fleeting nature of the season. Launching just in time for Summer 2015, the new #SUMMERPORTRAIT --a mini documentary film designed to capture a day in the life of the family frolicking on the beach, lounging by the lodge or sitting by the swimming pool-- will help parents stay present to those precious seasonal sights and sounds, while preserving the memories for a lifetime.
For $2000, the award-winning team of filmmakers will follow the family for a day, as they enjoy their time-off together. The result: An incredible 3-5 minute mini documentary that they can enjoy year-round. Available on the East Coast, families can schedule this service via http://www.portraitsthatmove.com/contact/. Those who book prior to July 1, will get 40 percent off.
“Surveys show that only about 45 percent of Americans take a summer vacation[1]. But, whether you can only do a weekend trip or a proper family getaway, it feels like the season flies by,“ says Susannah Ludwig, award-winning filmmaker and founder of Portraits that Move. “Our #SummerPortrait is designed to capture that ephemeral joy and help people treasure moments with their families – allowing everyone to participate in the experience, and not get stuck behind a camera. This is a perfect way to extend the fleeting season beyond Labor Day.”
