Award-winning filmmaker, Scott Wilhite, to introduce HeirloomStories.tv at RootsTech 2020



On Saturday, February 29, 2020 ShotBox will host Scott Wilhite, an award-winning writer, producer, and director and founder of the high net worth family preservation service, bacstory.com. Wilhite will be introducing HeirloomStories.tv, which brings focused family storytelling to a broader audience with an easily attainable price point.

History has shown that 70% of the wealth of high net worth families is lost by the time it hits the grandchildren. The family wealth is gone because the family is gone. The relationships simply fall apart. 

After working with high net worth families since 2001, Wilhite recognized a similar need with families everywhere. “Youth today are struggling. They’ve got high levels of anxiety, depression, and self-destructive behaviors and addictions. They’ve got an identity crisis,” says Wilhite. “They need to know who and whose they are.”

HeirloomStories is a platform for Generation One parents and grandparents to share the life lessons, insights, beliefs, and values that have guided them throughout their lives. The done-for-you service handles all the details from storycoaching, to recording, to distribution on a custom family webpage.

The connection between grandchildren and their grandparents has been severed. Children source wisdom from YouTubers and Instagram Influencers instead of their grandparents. Wilhite points out, “We don’t ask Aunt Kris for a recipe anymore, we Google it; we don’t ask Grandpa for help fixing the mower, we go to YouTube. There’s an opportunity to restore the grandparent connection through the family narrative.
