Unless you're a famous Kennedy or some other celebrity family, the only recorded oral, written and visual history you can leave is a digital one. This a most secure and private endeavor, and you should only trust the Family Love Time Capsule to deliver what you need.
Good Stuff Happens in 1:1 Meetings: Why you need them and how to do them well
How to use the family love time capsule template.
1. How to Use the Family
Love Time Capsule
Template
INSIDE THE EMBELLISHER™EPUB CREATOR STUDIO
2. How to Load the Template
The template for the Family Love Time Capsule comes preloaded inside the ePub Creator Studio.
This means that once you have premium membership, you will be able to use it to create your
family’s mobile presence.
The following video will show you how to load the template inside the studio.
Once it’s loaded, then we can go to the next step:
Using the template to insert different page formats.
3. Planning your family design.
Before you use the different pages that are included in your time capsule, you need to design an
overall plan or “storyboard” of how you want your book to look. Since every book has a theme,
perhaps that can be your first discussion at the Family Love Forum. All premium members have
access to the forum, and this is where you can plan your family’s storyboard and theme. Watch
this tutorial on how to access the forum. Here are some thematic ideas that can easily be
organized into a storyboard or sequence of content pages:
1. Choose a single person who can most represent the family and what it represents.
2. Find the family crest or some other emblem and discuss its meaning with members.
3. Choose a single event in the family’s history that can serve as the thematic focus.
4. Select the five best traits that the family has and then organize based on them.
5. Choose a family theme song, book or movie and organize based on its theme.
4. Storyboard it and present it to the family.
The “artist” in the family should take the ideas formulated as to theme and organize the pages in your
time capsule. This can be done using a PowerPoint program or any other type of visual brainstorming
software. For example, perhaps the person you choose is the “grand dame” of the family, a
grandmother. She has all the traits you want to organize your capsule around, and you plot the
capsule based on family photo albums and family home movies. Here are her traits:
1. She is a wonderful cook (so, your photos must have in the photos or relate in movies to food of
some kind).
2. She loves playing with the grandkids (or any kids who happen to be in the vicinity). Therefore, the
photos are collected based on the theme of adults enjoying children’s companionship.
3. She used to be a terrific athlete. You get the idea? Assemble the albums around different sports
and the home movies that relate to your family’s athleticism (or even lack thereof).
4. She was a writer of poetry. So, you assemble the writing of the family and attach photos or
movies to the different writings.
5. She overcame a physical or emotional hardship. Show photo albums or videos of how family
groups did the same.
5. Use the insert page feature.
The following instructional video will show you how to insert the various pages you need
to tell your family’s story. You must remember to use each one according to your overall
theme or storyboard. The entire family must be in agreement as to what’s going into your
time capsule. The following are the reasons why this agreement is important to making
the best design:
• Nobody in the family should feel left out.
• Since our delivery platform is “mobile,” only those family members who agree to share
in this experience will receive it. You can send the final link to each of them, and when
they click on it, it will open inside their Embellisher™ eReader for full multimedia
enjoyment.
• If you use the private forum to post decisions and voting records, you’ll have a record of
why you designed what you did. However, if you decide to change the content, this can
always be done instantly inside our ePub Creator Studio. What’s done inside your time
capsule will instantly change all over the network of family members and their mobile
devices.
6. Why you need a family time capsule.
In conclusion, there are five reasons why you need a family love time capsule:
1. Unless you’re a famous Kennedy or some other celebrity family, this may be the only
written, oral and visual history of you left for your future relatives to experience.
2. Using the Embellisher™ ePub3 Creator Studio means all your family heirlooms will be safe
and secure from “in the cloud” thefts and social website intrusions. Only those to whom
you send a link get to view your capsule, and the link can’t be opened by any other person
because your files are secured by a unique book i.d.
3. Only the Family Love Time Capsule ebook plays videos inside the eBook, so you don’t
need to upload any videos to YouTube. The size of your files also doesn’t matter when
they’re played inside our Embellisher™ eReader. The only limit is the size of your family
and which plan you purchase. You can even import the family tree into your template.
4. The unique Family Forum allows you to vote for and choose the best format for your
eBook’s time capsule. It’s also more secure than a Facebook family group page.
5. All family members can access your time capsule because it’s “cross-platform” efficient.
They can pick-up where they left off viewing on one device where they left off on another.
