Making your film, together.
Your booking
Heirloom Pictures, operated by EarlyCo, Inc., makes personalized films through a human-directed studio process. Our work uses code, animation and AI-assisted tools, with creative choices and review by the studio.
One personal film costs $249 USD. Two personal films cost $399 USD and include two separate briefs, songs and film-review journeys. Each film includes its song, a main film, a vertical cut for phones, a short sharing clip, storyboard review, and one round of notes on the first cut. Additional work is agreed separately before it is charged.
Payment is collected through Stripe at booking. Saving a brief does not book a film. We confirm your order after Stripe confirms payment, and contact you about the production schedule. Tell us any deadline before booking; we will confirm whether it can be met.
Review and approval
You choose the song and review the storyboard on your film page. You can send storyboard notes before approving it. Storyboard approval locks the agreed direction and starts animation. You then receive one round of notes on the first cut. Changes outside the approved direction may need a separate quote.
Email notifications invite you back to the website. The choices and approvals recorded on your film page are the production instructions.
Cancellations and refunds
You may request a full refund at any time before you approve the storyboard. Email max@heirloom.pictures from the address used for your booking. After storyboard approval, contact Max: we consider cancellation and refund requests individually based on the work completed and the circumstances. If we cannot deliver the agreed service, we will work with you on an appropriate remedy. Nothing here limits any rights you have under applicable consumer law.
Your material and the finished work
You retain your rights in the material you provide. You give the studio permission to use it to create and deliver your film, and confirm that you have the necessary permissions from the people and rights holders involved. For each child, permission must come from a parent or guardian. Do not upload material you are not entitled to share.
You may keep, watch and share the completed film with family and friends and on your personal social media. AI-assisted songs are licensed for personal, non-commercial use with the film; we do not promise exclusive copyright ownership of AI-generated material. Commercial use or separate music distribution requires a separate agreement.
We do not use your film in our portfolio without your separate permission. See our privacy page for how your information is handled.
