Everything worth asking.

Usually within seven days from the moment payment clears, and often sooner. The pipeline is deliberate: intake on Day 1, footage generation on Days 2–3, editorial and music on Days 4–5, quality review on Day 6, delivery by Day 7. If we are unusually busy, or your movie needs another pass to be right, it can run a little longer, and we will tell you. We don't rush. Rushing is how you lose the craft.

Guided, conversational, and short: about five to seven minutes. We walk you through the life areas that matter to you, ask for scene-level detail (where you are, what you're doing, who's with you), help you pick affirmations from a curated bank, and capture your tone preferences, whether that is cinematic, dreamy, vibrant, or serene. It saves as you go, so you can stop and pick it back up. Everything is written in present tense, because that is what mental rehearsal responds to best.

Yes, on the Vision and Supernatural tiers. Photos of you, your family, or the locations that matter to you, anything you would like woven into specific scenes. We respect every upload, never reuse it beyond your movie, and purge raw uploads on a published retention schedule.

A real editor, one human, start to finish. AI generates the raw footage. Your editor assembles it, sets it to music, paces it, and makes the dozens of small decisions that separate a generated clip from a movie that lands. Automation produces output. We are after work that moves people.

Spark is right if you want to focus narrowly on one life area, in a single sharp 60-second movie. Vision is the most chosen tier, covers up to three life areas in 90 seconds, and includes personal photo integration. Supernatural is the signature work: two minutes, unlimited life areas, the most scenes, and a revision pass on the cut.

None. Every tier is a one-time purchase. The movie is yours forever, as an MP4 download with no expiry and no DRM. Watch it once a year or twice a day, for as long as you own a screen.

Honest answer: it depends on what you do with it. A professionally edited two-minute cinematic movie built around your specific vision, at the production quality we hold, costs roughly $1,800 to $3,500 if you commission it from a typical studio. We can run at this price because the footage-generation step is AI-assisted. The human craft, meaning the editor, the music edit, the pacing, and the QA, is included. If it becomes something you return to, it pays for itself quickly. If you watch it once and file it away, it won't.

Worth separating two different things. If we missed what you asked for, whether that is the wrong life area, the wrong tone, or the wrong affirmations, that one is on us: tell us what's off within 14 days and we re-cut it at no charge, on any tier. A revision is different. That is a change of mind after we delivered what you described. One revision round is included on Supernatural, with notes submitted within 14 days of delivery; on Spark and Vision, revisions are billed at studio rates. In practice almost no one needs one, because the questionnaire is thorough and the quality review on Day 6 catches most of what comes up.

Once production has started, from Day 2 onwards, we can't refund, because the editor has already begun work. Before that, we'll refund in full, no questions asked. If something goes sideways after delivery, write to us. We'll make it right.

The underlying mechanisms, meaning neuroplasticity, mental rehearsal, associative memory, and emotional encoding, are decades of well-established neuroscience. Elite athletes have used vivid mental rehearsal for forty years, and brain-imaging studies show overlapping circuitry between vivid imagined practice and lived experience. What's new here is the production quality. A cinematic, personal movie set to music is rehearsal at a fidelity that wasn't available to most people until now. The science page goes deeper. We are careful not to promise outcomes, which is what the “What we won't claim” card on the homepage is about.

A vision board asks your brain to do the heavy lifting of conjuring the feeling. A movie does most of that lifting for you, through motion, music, and pacing, so the feeling arrives within seconds of pressing play. Same intent, a meaningfully different fidelity.

As often as you want to. You own the file, and there is no schedule to keep. That said, repetition is the mechanism, so the people who get the most from it tend to come back to it often, and many do it in the first quiet minutes of the day. It runs one to two minutes. Watch it because you want to feel that way again, not because a calendar told you to.

Some clients commission a new movie every six to twelve months as their life evolves, with a different focus for a different season. The old movie stays yours, and nothing expires. Returning clients don't pay full price either: write to support@playmylife.co before you order and we'll sort out the discount with you, since it depends on what you're commissioning.

Completely. Your questionnaire responses, your uploads, and your finished movie are stored encrypted and accessible only to the editor assigned to your project. We never show client work publicly without explicit written permission, and nothing we publish identifies the person it was made for. The examples page exists to show you the look and feel of the work, not to show you anyone's life.

Yes. We take on custom commissions, including longer runtimes, multiple movies, family or team work, executive commissions for founders, weddings, and milestone anniversaries. Write to support@playmylife.co with a few lines about what you have in mind. We'll respond with a scope and quote.

Yes. The recipient completes their own questionnaire, so the movie is genuinely theirs. We handle the surprise reveal however you'd like. Gift commissions usually ship within seven days from when the recipient finishes the questionnaire, so leave a little room if you are working toward a date.
