Who this helps
families, funeral homes, church media teams, celebrants, and volunteers handling playback.
24-hour tribute planning
Rehearse a funeral slideshow before the service starts.
Prepare a funeral slideshow rehearsal checklist for playback file, venue screen, audio, captions, backup copy, and final approval.
What to gather
- Playback file
- Audio test
- Screen format
- Backup copy
Suggested workflow
- Confirm the final approved video.
- Test playback on venue equipment.
- Check audio and captions.
- Keep a backup file ready.
Privacy boundary
MemorialRushAI does not automatically upload family photos or service details. Use secure transfer only, review every name and date, and ask the editor to delete working files after delivery and approval.
Rush readiness checklist
- Test the exact file on the exact playback device if possible.
- Bring a backup copy on a second device or USB drive.
- Confirm who will start, pause, or replay the slideshow during the service.
Family review notes
- Let the family approve the final file before rehearsal.
- Check names, dates, captions, and photo order one last time.
- Decide whether the video should loop before or after the service.
Privacy and consent checklist
- Do not leave source photo folders on venue devices.
- Remove temporary files after the service.
- Keep public playback copies separate from family archive copies.
Editor handoff review
Before checkout, make sure the brief includes the final contact email, deadline, video length, music notes, photo count, required captions, and any do-not-use instructions. A clean handoff reduces rework during a sensitive deadline.
When a paid memorial handoff is worth it
Buy the $49 starter only after the free brief has enough names, dates, photos, service timing, tone, and music notes for a careful editor handoff. Use the $99 expanded pack when the family also needs archive notes, accessibility review prompts, after-service copy, backup naming, and resharing notes. Skip payment if you need photo scanning, final video production, public posting, funeral-home contact, USB creation, file deletion, grief counseling, legal advice, music licensing advice, accessibility certification, consent advice, or guaranteed delivery, playback, approval, privacy, ranking, traffic, sales, or revenue.
Does MemorialRushAI test the venue equipment?
No. It prepares the rehearsal checklist for the family, venue, or media volunteer.
Should we bring a backup?
Yes. Bring at least one backup copy and know who has it.
