Father's Day idea!

I edited together all the video we have shot over the past 6 months into a 10 minute movie for Father's Day. I was going to have it be J's gift to DH. 

My mother had a genius idea, to see if a local theater will play it for us on the big screen. There is a small, locally owned theater around the corner, and they have digital projectors. I am waiting for a call back, but I'm hoping they let us do it, and don't charge too much. DH will flip out!!! 

Fingers crossed while I wait to hear!

What are you doing for DH on Father's Day?

Re: Father's Day idea!

  • What a nice idea to have it played on a big screen!

    I do video editing for a living & have made dvds for nieces & nephew, but have totally slacked on DS's. I feel like everytime I go to start, I have new videos to add!

    We bought a new grill & accessories as a Father's Day gift. It just came today!

    I love it!  I hope it works out for you.

    We're getting DH a new wallet and then I'm doing a version of the classic (or cliched depending on your perspective) D-A-D pictures.  I found a collage layout on shutterfly that has 6 pictures - one big one in the upper right corner and then 5 smaller ones going down the left side and around the bottom.  So my plan for the 5 smaller ones is to take I <3 D A D pictures and the take a picture of DS in one of DH's work shirts for the larger one.

  • I know someone who proposed that way (with a video at a small theater). I think it's a sweet idea! Let us know how it goes!

  • It's going to happen! The guy from the theater called and said he really wanted to do it, but was super busy that day. I told him we would come any time, and the movie was only 11 minutes. So he fit us in!

    I'm having a video conversion place put the movie on a blu ray disc, and the theater will do a test run this week to make sure everything is working. I am SO excited!

    I am a horrible liar though, so when we pull up to the theater, I think DH will know what's going on. I may try telling him they are doing one of those movies you can watch with your babies, since he loves movies. I'm not sure he'll buy that though.
