Life Story Recap
If you want to make a gift for someone’s 40th or 50th birthday, then the best choice is to create a life story video devoted to important events. You can ask their friends and parents for help. Old photos from childhood and major milestones will touch everyone’s heart. This option also works for younger adults.

Interview
If you are really talkative, try acting as a reporter while making a birthday video. Take a camera and a microphone and ask all the friends around what they think of the birthday person. They can share stories, tell compliments or jokes. Show the interviews at the party to have a good laugh.

Gift for Girlfriend or Boyfriend
Make a happy birthday video message for your beloved one. Show special moments in your relationship, your mutual achievements and, of course, express lots of love with stickers, GIF animations and sweet captions.
