Office produced video interviews
usually range from 8 to 15 minutes in length, and may cover some things you'd like to know more about this
person, in addition to the information already available on their Member Profile and
Partner Compatibility Questionnaire. More importantly, in the video you see their body language,
hear their tone of voice and the way they express themself and articulate statements, along with other visual and
auditory information. These are important elements of attraction.
If you or another member doesn't have a video on file, we'll do the videotaped interview in our office as part of any
membership plan at no extra charge.
For members who don't live locally, a self-prepared videotaped interview
can be sent to the office. Any member prepared tape should not give a last name or provide
phone, address or e-mail information, or any other information such as the name of an employer which could be
used to locate a person. This is for member protection. If we become aware that a member prepared tape
contains this kind of information or other objectionable material, it will not be made available to other members.
Any member prepared tape should usually be at least 5 minutes in length and shouldn't exceed
about 15 minutes or so. Members may do self prepared videos either as a monologue
(discussing things about themselves, who they'd like to meet, etc.) without an interviewer,
or as a dialogue with an interviewer. On a tape it's a good idea to give information about what kind of a person you are,
and avoid being overly specific about a lot of desirable qualities
(things you'd like to have) in a partner, as opposed to the necessary qualities (things you absolutely must have) in a partner.
Keep in mind that there are a lot of exceptions to most preconceived notions about who is right for you. You don't want to
eliminate someone who would otherwise have been close to perfect for you, simply because you were unduly restrictive with
idealistic and unrealistic standards for a partner.
If you order a tape of a member please be aware that we can not give refunds if you lose interest in someone after ordering their tape, or if you are
displeased with the content or quality of a member's tape. Please keep in mind that some tapes may be member prepared.
The tapes are $15.95 each plus $4.00 shipping and handling. Sales tax applies to California residents only.
