VIDEO AND DVD PACKAGES

We offer two main packages:

1. The "Sovereign Collection", which comprises the "Path of Honour" film is fully personalised with all the footage of the recipient and their guests filmed throughout the morning of the Investiture. Included in this collection is a selection of four digital video prints and the "Investitures" booklet.
For orders received 48 hours in advance of the Investiture ceremony, a FREE email image is sent to an email address of your choice immediately after the ceremony.

2. The "Path of Honour" film, non-personalised, but with one digital video print of the recipient and the "Investitures" booklet. (Note: this option does not contain footage of any particular recipient and their guests as It is not individually personalised for the recipient, although it does contain general footage filmed on the day of the Investiture).

Additional copies of either video / dvd / stills can be purchased at the time of ordering or at any other time in the future, as all material is stored indefinitely.

Your personalised 'Path of Honour' film

This film is only available to recipients and begins with a 'behind the scenes' look at the meticulous preparations for the Investiture ceremony. You and your guests are filmed at various areas throughout The Palace, including the briefings of recipients in The Green Drawing Room and The Picture Gallery. Guests are filmed entering and leaving along The East Gallery and Grand Staircase, and as a Gentleman Usher carries out the briefing in The Ballroom.

We capture the scene as recipients gather and are briefed by The Comptroller, The Lord Chamberlain's office, before being led through to The Ballroom, where your Investiture is discreetly captured by a further six remotely controlled cameras. Subsequently, in our studios, your Investiture sequence is individually edited, together with your name and citation as announced by The Lord Chamberlain. This, along with shots of you and your guests leaving together, completes the thirty minute film "Path of Honour" providing a unique record, created from material filmed on your own Investiture day.

Your Investiture Videoprints (Digital Stills)

A collection of four videoprints (each 8"x6" overall) are selected, showing highlights as your award is presented. The images are similar to those seen throughout this website. Technological advances have enabled enlargements upto A4 in size to be extracted from the digital master tapes.
A4 images are available as a re-ordered size. Further details can be obtained from your re-order form or by contacting us.

The "Investitures" booklet

A specially commissioned booklet written by Henry Farrar in association with The Lord Chamberlain,s Office and The Central Chancery of The Orders of Knighthood. This booklet explains the various honours, their history and modern day usage.
