Questions people ask
What questions should I ask for a group video or tribute video?
Mix a few kinds: one easy opener (a simple message or toast), one memory, one thing people love or admire about the person, and one wish for what comes next. Easy questions get everyone recording, and memory questions give you the stories people rewatch. Pick the occasion above and the generator starts you with that mix.
How many questions should each person answer?
Three to five is the sweet spot. Fewer feels thin, and more makes people put it off. Let people skip any question they don't have an answer for. Short answers work best: in Folksee each answer can run up to 45 seconds.
How long should a tribute video be?
It depends on how many people take part. Roughly, multiply people by questions by about 30 seconds. Ten people answering three questions comes to about 15 minutes. If it's going to be played at a party, fewer questions per person keeps it moving.
Should everyone get the same questions?
Yes. When everyone answers the same few questions, the finished video flows like a conversation, with each question becoming its own chapter. It also makes it easy for people who aren't sure what to say.
What are good questions for a memorial tribute video?
Gentle, open questions work best: what made the person special, a small thing you'll always remember, a funny story, and what you'd say to them if you could. Pick "Memorial" above for the full list, and let people choose the ones that feel right.
How do I collect everyone's answers on video?
Send the questions with a link where people can record. With Folksee, everyone records their answers from their own phone or computer, no app needed, and the answers come together in one reel you can watch and share. Starting a reel is free.
