Filmed conversations, kept for good

One day, their voice will be all you wish you'd kept.

Ten filmed conversations with your mum or dad, drawn out by a trained young storyteller, & kept in a digital book your family can read, watch & listen to forever.

See if it's right for your family

Made in Australia, one family at a time, by the team behind Blues & Greens - who sit in 120+ mentoring sessions with Australian families every week.

Starting with 20 families this month · limited spots

Chapter 01

The conversation nobody's ever had with him.

Your dad has 80 years of stories. You've heard maybe ten, & not because he's private - because the dinner table isn't built for it, & the Sunday call isn't either. So each week, one trained young storyteller sits with him over video & asks what nobody has. The same person, every week, until the guard comes down & the real stories walk out.

Australian men average 81 years. Australian women, 85. Every family knows that arithmetic, & almost every family plans to do something about it one day. One day has a habit of arriving late.

Ten honest hours captures more of them than the last ten Christmases did.

Chapter 02

Then it becomes something your family can read, watch & listen to for years.

Ten hours of conversation, set down as a digital book in his own words, alongside every film, every recording, & a message for each person he loves. All in one private place.

Chapter One

The Boy from the High Country

“Dad reckoned the frost built character. I reckon it just built early risers. Either way, I never slept past five again in my life.”

Chapter Three

The Kitchen on Rathdowne Street

“We didn't have much, but Mum could make a Sunday roast stretch to Thursday. I can still smell it. If you kids remember one thing about where I come from, remember that nobody at that table ever felt poor.”

Chapter Five

The Girl from the Coburg Town Hall

“She says the dress was blue. It was green. Sixty-one years married & we've never settled it, & I hope we never do.”

Chapter Nine

Becoming Pop

“Your kids give you back the hours your work took. Grandkids give you back the wonder. Nobody warns you about that part.”

For Sophie

“There's a message in here with your name on it. Don't open it yet. You'll know the day.”

Watch it take shape, from session one.

Every family receives a private portal - the quiet place where the films, the voice recordings & the chapters gather as they're made, & where the finished archive lives on long after.

G&G

My Pop decided he wanted his story kept for his family, so he's been writing it himself, page by page.

Most people never get that far. A blank page is hard work, & the best stories usually only come out when someone asks the right question.

I run Blues & Greens - we match teenage boys with young mentors, & hundreds of Australian families trust us with their kids every week. Drawing people out is the thing my team has spent years getting good at.

Greys & Greens is that, done properly. A trained young person, week after week, drawing out a lifetime. Then a digital book your family can read, watch & listen to, whenever they like. We're starting with 20 families this month.

This month

Twenty families. Limited spots.

Ten filmed hour-long conversations. A private digital Life Story Book in their own words. The complete film & voice archive - roughly five hundred minutes of their voice. A written message for each person they love.

A professional biographer charges $3,250 & visits six times. StoryWorth emails your parent a weekly form for $99. This is neither.

We're limited on spots, so we're picky about who we take on · nothing is charged today
See if your family's a fit

Asked quietly, answered honestly

Dad will say he has nothing worth telling.

They all say that. Then a stranger asks what his street smelled like in 1958, & an hour disappears. Our storytellers open with the easy years & let the hour do the convincing.

How does the filming actually work?

Over a video call, at the same time each week. There's nothing for your parent to set up or learn - they answer a call & talk to someone who genuinely wants to listen. Every session is recorded & transcribed as they speak.

What exactly do we receive?

A private digital Life Story Book, in their own words, to read, watch & listen to whenever you like. The complete film & voice archive of all ten sessions, held privately for your family. Written messages from your parent to each person they love.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what your family needs, so Brodie or Lucas walk you through it on your 20-minute chat, with no pressure either way. For honest bearings: a professional biographer charges $3,250 for six visits, & the $99 services email your parent a form once a week. This sits between the two, & it's filmed.

Who are the storytellers?

Trained young people from the team behind Blues & Greens, where hundreds of Australian families trust our mentors with their teenagers every week. Drawing people out of themselves is the thing we've spent years getting good at.
