Quiet honour – thank you for your service video template

Slate, sand and a laurel wreath: a respectful thank you for your service, with no flags or insignia. With your photos and message it runs about 21 seconds over 5 scenes, and grows a little with every extra photo you add.

On screen it reads “Thank you for your service”, “…”, “for …” and “With gratitude”, set in Dm Serif Display and Instrument Serif. The artwork is a laurel wreath. It adds stars. The colours are deep blue, cream and orange; under Style you can swap them for cream, brown and orange.

When you open it, a short form asks for who it’s for, what it’s for, a few words of your own and who it’s from, and puts the answers straight onto the design; every word can still be changed afterwards under Text. There are 2 frames ready for your own pictures, and you can add up to 30 photos or short clips in all; extra ones get scenes of their own.

It opens in Landscape 16:9 and also fits Square 1:1, Portrait 4:5 and Vertical 9:16; switch under Format without starting again. Export it as an MP4 with sound; it starts with the cinematic track (swelling strings and piano), or pick another built-in track or a song from your device, or save a short GIF.

People pick it for thank you for your service, veterans day, remembrance, service and respectful. Everything is made on your device: nothing is uploaded, there is no sign-up and no watermark. For ideas, wording and timing, see donor thank you video for charities.
