Who this helps
families choosing music tone, song references, instrumental preferences, or quiet sections for a tribute video.
24-hour tribute planning
Organize memorial video music notes before editing starts.
Prepare memorial video music notes for tone, timing, lyric sensitivity, quiet sections, and editor handoff.
What to gather
- Preferred tone
- Instrumental or lyrics
- Quiet opening or closing
- Permission or venue notes
Suggested workflow
- Describe the mood.
- List song references if any.
- Mark lyric sensitivities.
- Confirm music notes with family.
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
- Choose a mood direction first: soft piano, instrumental, faith-centered, classic, warm, or silent.
- Tell the editor whether music should fade under captions or stay quiet at the closing dedication.
- Confirm venue or livestream audio requirements before export.
Family review notes
- Ask whether lyrics are appropriate for the service setting.
- Confirm whether a specific song has personal meaning or should only be used as style reference.
- Review the final audio level if the video will be projected in a venue.
Privacy and consent checklist
- Do not paste unrelated private stories into music notes.
- Keep licensing or permission decisions separate from the planning brief.
- Store private song references and family notes in a secure folder.
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.
Can I request no lyrics?
Yes. Put instrumental, no lyrics, or quiet piano in the music preference field.
Does this license music?
No. It only prepares music notes for the editor and family review.
