Create a life story film

for generations to come

Welcome! My name is Danika Armytage and I am the director and founder of Big Stories Little Films, a national film service that specialise in turning life stories into beautiful, short documentary films anywhere in Australia.

We create Life Legacy Films for individuals, Couples Story Films, Family Ancestry Films and Signature Story Films for professionals.

So whether you want to record a loved one’s story or your own, our legacy films are the easiest, most powerful way to ensure the big stories that matter most are preserved for generations to come.

Let's connect

What is a Legacy Film?

A Legacy Film is a like cinematic memoir - but instead of a large writing project it’s a simple to create film
A Legacy Film shares your life story in your own words, filmed in your own home, which is then edited with photos and music (it’s like an Australian Story episode, but about you)
A Legacy Film will become a priceless heirloom to share for generations to come
