Graduation includes one public moment everyone waits for. The graduate hears their name, crosses the stage, and receives recognition for years of hard work.
But that walk only tells part of the story.
Behind every graduate are family members, friends, teachers, mentors, coaches, and classmates who encouraged them along the way.
For the Class of 2026, VidDay and StageClip offer two graduation video keepsakes that capture both the official ceremony and the people behind the achievement.
StageClip preserves the official commencement moment.
VidDay brings together the messages, photos, and encouragement from the people who helped the graduate reach it.
Together, they capture a fuller graduation story.
Preserve the stage moment with StageClip
StageClip gives graduates a personalized video of their official commencement moment.
Hearing your name called and walking across the stage may last only a few seconds, but it represents years of classes, assignments, exams, challenges, and progress.
StageClip helps graduates preserve that moment with a personalized commencement video centered on their own stage walk.
Instead of relying on shaky phone footage from the audience or searching through a full ceremony recording, graduates and their families receive a clear video of the moment they came to see.
The clip is easy to watch, keep, and share with relatives and friends who couldn’t attend the ceremony.
For participating schools, colleges, and universities, StageClip also extends the commencement experience beyond the event itself by giving each graduate a personal record of their achievement.
Celebrate the people behind the achievement with VidDay
VidDay collects graduation messages, photos, memories, and congratulations from family and friends in one place.
A graduation ceremony recognizes what someone accomplished. A VidDay graduation video gift gives the people around them a chance to talk about how they got there.
Parents can share what made them proud. Friends can remember the classes, late-night study sessions, and inside jokes they experienced together. Teachers, coaches, and mentors can name the qualities they saw develop over the years.
With VidDay, contributors use one private link to upload video messages and photos.
They don’t need to download an app or create an account, which makes it easier to include relatives, classmates, teachers, and friends wherever they live.
Contributors can talk about:
A moment when the graduate surprised them
Something they admire about them
A challenge they watched them overcome
A memory from school
Advice for what comes next
What they hope the graduate remembers about this time
We’ve seen graduation videos become more personal when people move beyond a quick “congratulations” and name one specific memory, quality, or moment of growth.
Those contributions come together in a graduation video filled with familiar faces and voices. It gives the graduate something they can return to after the ceremony, once the cap and gown have been packed away and attention has shifted toward whatever comes next.
How two graduation video keepsakes tell the full story
A graduation keepsake feels complete when it preserves both the achievement and the support behind it.
StageClip captures the moment the graduate crosses the stage. VidDay captures the stories and people surrounding that moment.
A graduate might share their StageClip with friends and relatives who missed the ceremony, then watch their VidDay video with family at a graduation party or at home after the celebration.
Each video has a different role:
StageClip: Captures the official milestone with a high-quality, personalized video of the graduate’s commencement stage walk.
VidDay: Captures the emotional story through a collaborative montage of messages, photos, and advice from the people who know them best.
Video preserves details that a single photograph can’t. Graduates can hear the announcement of their name, watch their reaction as they cross the stage, listen to a grandparent’s advice, or replay a friend’s story years later.
Together, VidDay and StageClip help graduates remember both what they achieved and who supported them along the way.
Celebrate the class of 2026
Graduation day moves quickly. The ceremony begins, names are called, photos are taken, and families are soon heading home or gathering for the next celebration.
VidDay and StageClip give graduates two ways to hold onto the day.
With StageClip, graduates from participating institutions can access and share their personalized commencement moment.
With VidDay, family and friends can create a collaborative graduation video filled with messages, photos, memories, and congratulations.
One captures the walk across the stage. The other brings together the people who helped make that walk possible.
