Essential Tips for Creating the Structure of a 'Profile Movie' Before Making Your Video!

Profile Movie: What Kind of Structure Should I Use?

A classic video presentation at the wedding reception is the "Profile Movie."

The "Profile Movie" introduces the couple's basic information and how they met, and many couples create it from scratch on their own computers♡

However, one dilemma arises when doing this.

That is, 【What kind of flow and structure should I use to incorporate photos and comments???!】 of course, it would be good to refer to videos from previous brides that moved you, but you want to know all the possible flows and structures before starting to make the profile movie, which is the bride's heart♡

Here are three ways to structure the Profile Movie that might interest you!

Profile Movie Flow ① A Retrospective Style from the Past

The first one to introduce is the most classic and standard way of making a profile movie, which is 【Introduction of the groom's upbringing ➡ Introduction of the bride's upbringing ➡ From meeting to marriage】♡

Guests are likely familiar with this standard flow, making it easy to dive into the profile movie, and the clarity in both making and viewing it is its charm＊

Profile Movie Flow ② A Style That Goes Back in Time

Next, the flow is 【Current status of the couple ➡ How they met ➡ Groom's upbringing ➡ Bride's upbringing ➡ Parents' young years】♡

This style takes you back in time from the present to the past＊

The charm of this structure is that it allows viewers to feel like they’ve time-traveled while watching the video and can surprise the parents♡ They probably wouldn’t expect their young photos to appear at the end of the movie, so they are likely to feel both shy and delighted＊

Profile Movie Flow ③ A Style That Reflects on Events Chronologically

Finally, the last structure reflects on events according to different years＊

For example, it could go like 【1980: Groom's parents get married ➡ 1984: Bride's parents get married ➡ 1985: Groom is born ➡ 1987: Bride is born ➡ 1995: Groom's 10th birthday (He was such a boy) ➡ etc. ➡ 2014: The couple meets ➡ 2016: The proposal】♡

Reflecting on events related to the couple in chronological order allows guests to recall memories, such as "Oh, we met in that year～," which is an appealing point♩
