About Us

We are Heritage Films.

Michael Berry, nationally-syndicated radio host, asked his buddy Heritage Films founder Chance McClain to bring all of his gear to his home to film his dad. He didn’t want anything special, “it’s just that, dad is 75, retired, but essentially the same guy I came home to in high school. I want my kids and future grandkids to know him just like this.”

So, Chance did.

Mr. Berry didn’t know what all of the fuss was about, but agreed to sit down and chat on camera. What was supposed to be a 45-minute interview turned into a whole day of filmed conversation.

A company was born.

Since that day, we have found remarkable stories hiding inside everyone.

At Heritage Films, we believe, and prove, that there are extraordinary stories in everyone.

Heritage Films combines decades of experience in traditional film production with an insatiable desire to tell your story. We bring the equipment and industry standards ordinarily reserved for Hollywood productions into your home and, along with your pictures and family videos, transform a simple conversation into a documentary film.

Of course we cover the bases…childhood, career, places you’ve lived…but even more cherished are the little things. Tell us about that one car you had that was a clunker. Share with us a story involving a sandwich. What is the little life lesson you wish millennials would learn? Things like that.

After conversations with your loved ones, we learn just enough about you to be dangerous. We then sit down with you under the bright lights and unfold a life well lived.

The whole family watched it and it. We had a blast, it was awesome.

We love the video, a few tears from my daughter in law at the ending. Thanks again.

I really appreciated the approach of Chance and his team to my Legacy project. They made my grandmother feel comfortable and she enjoyed the process. The video captured many of the special moments in her life and those memories are now captured for future generations.

They wove the life stories of three siblings, all in their eighties, with lives well-lived, into an extraordinary legacy film. Stories tumbled out of each as they responded to Chance’s elegant questioning.

My God. I don’t know how you guys did what you did, but I am beyond impressed.

I can’t describe what this means to me.

“The legacy film of my dad is my most prized possession. My children and I will treasure it forever. “

Thank you for recording our father’s history in a way that is much more thorough that I could have done on my own. I had previously tried to record or write down his story of emigrating to the United States, but was never successful. Legacy Films took the reigns and created a professional product beyond imagination. This is a priceless gift to us, our children, future grandchildren and generations beyond. Thank you!

I got a 2 hour video, that makes me laugh, cry, smile, and reflect on where I get my little quirks, along with high quality video, sound, and the pleasure of watching my Grandma actually enjoying herself while telling her story.
