Cutting Edge Bar Mitzvah & Bat Mitzvah Hype Videos & Montages

For many years it was the Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah MC that introduced the guest of honor into their celebration. Reel Life Cinematography, a video production company, has opened the door to a brand new way to get the party started with their creative Hype Videos.

Each Hype Video is unique to the Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah child’s personality. These mini movies showcase their talent and/or favorite parts of their life. They can even include family members for a more fun and personal touch.

With more than 20 million views on YouTube alone, Reel Life Cinematography knows what teens connect with and relate to the most. “Our goal is to do more than entertain your guests,” said Chris Tsalikis, Co-founder of Reel Life Cinematography. “Production value is a huge part of the experience. We’ll make your Hype Video or Photo/Video Montage the highlight of your celebration.”

Reel Life Cinematography will work with your family through each phase of the production process and use their creative expertise to make sure your Hype Video or Photo/Video Montage is unique and high-quality. “We understand how important this day is to you,” said Billy Anastasiou, Co-founder of Reel Life Cinematography. “We’re extremely passionate about creating an unforgettable video that your guests will remember months after your event.”

Best Friends Celebrate with Virtual B’nai Mitzvah

Best friends Zachary Tamarkin and Eric Zager of Allentown, PA had planned separate Bar Mitzvah celebrations – Eric’s in March and Zachary’s in June, 2020 – prior to the Coronavirus pandemic. When it became clear that plans would need to change, their families joined forces to celebrate their simchas with a Zoom B’nai Mitzvah and socially distant celebration. Held on Zach’s original date, the day was festive, meaningful and definitely memorable. 

Each family participated from the safety of their respective homes, while their rabbi from Temple Beth El in Allentown conducted the temple’s first-ever virtual service from his house. Both families had Holocaust Torahs in their homes, making their services even more significant.

In the afternoon, they came together at the Tamarkin’s house, where they rented a frozen treats truck and had guests sign up for 15-minute time slots to drive by, get a treat, and have a quick, socially distanced visit with the Bar Mitzvah boys. Outdoor decor included homemade lawn signs, the boys’ custom logo, and photos of the friends over the years. Guests received a custom face mask and other favors made by the families. Prior to the Zoom, they hand delivered or mailed goody bags to create excitement for the event. 

Read on to see photos from this awesome socially distant celebration:

Mitzvah Advice

“Hire a DJ/entertainment company to help run your virtual Mitzvah,” says Zach’s mom Tama. “While a virtual event was not what we had planned or hoped for, we were able to add meaning and connection. Having someone else run the Zoom, (Xtreme Event Group did ours) it put us at ease and also made for a seamless and professional event which guests connected with.”

Mitzvah Project

For Eric’s Mitzvah Project, he was joined by Zach and other friends when he regularly visited Country Meadows Retirement Community this winter to spend time with residents and talk about his love of sports. The conversations often turned to other topics and the boys loved hearing stories from the residents and learning life lessons.  Eric will now be joining Zach to complete a Mitzvah Project with Mitzvah Circle, a local organization that the Tamarkin family has engaged with that was created to fill gaps and provide items that are not covered by government assistance to families most in need. When it is safe to do so, Zach and Eric will be organizing a service day for their friends and family to go to Mitzvah Circle’s warehouse to help package customized care packages with clothing, shoes, diapers, period supplies, books, household goods, toiletries and more for families in crisis.

How To Organize Photos For A Bar Bat Mitzvah Montage

Organizing photos from the past 13 years for your child’s Bar or Bat Mitzvah montage may feel like a daunting task. Where do you even start? How do you decide between thousands of photos and videos?

We went to an expert and got some advice. Images4ever is a full-service video montage company, but more than that, they are storytellers. They have this organizing thing down pat, and thankfully they’ve put together a comprehensive list of instructions and categories for you to follow. 

So, here goes…

HOW TO ORGANIZE PHOTOS FOR A BAR OR BAT MITZVAH MONTAGE

There are two options on how to organize photos for your child’s video montage:

1. By Category 

2. By Chronological Story 

Most people choose the “Category” option. By dividing your pictures into 6 categories, it is easy to make a great photo montage. There is no exact number of pictures for each section. The focus should be on the end number. Images4ever believes 100-125 is the right amount of pictures. The goal is to make a montage that is about 9-11 minutes long.

Watch Charlie’s Bat Mitzvah Montage here

Here are the six categories they recommend:

CATEGORY 1: PICTURES OF BAR BAT MITZVAH CHILD 

Baby pictures and pictures of your child at different ages. By going through the years, you can show how much your child has grown. You can include pictures from a pre-Mitzvah shoot. You do not need to show pictures from every year of your child’s life.

CATEGORY 2: PICTURES OF BAR BAT MITZVAH CHILD WITH MOM AND DAD

Images4ever recommends pictures of mom and dad with the child together, in addition to mom and dad alone with the child. You’ll want to avoid a larger number of photos with one parent or the other.

CATEGORY 3: IMMEDIATE FAMILY PICTURES

These pictures should be of brothers and sisters with Mitzvah child and family pictures. Mom and Dad should be in these pictures too. Pictures from special family memories like trips or special events work really well. 

CATEGORY 4: EXTENDED FAMILY PICTURES

This category includes pictures of the child with their cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and close family friends (those friends your kids call “aunt, uncle, and cousin”). Try not to leave anyone important out. Be mindful of feelings when choosing pictures and try to include an even amount of each family member.

CATEGORY 5: SCHOOL FRIENDS PICTURES:

School friends pictures can be throughout the years or just current friends, whichever is more appropriate for your child. 

CATEGORY 6: CAMP FRIENDS OR SPORTS/ACTIVITY/HOBBY PICTURES

From camp, you probably have tons of pictures as most camps take pictures throughout the summer. If your child doesn’t go to camp, include pictures of the child playing sports, musical instruments or other hobbies.

Watch Ben’s Bar Mitzvah Montage here

Dividing your pictures into these categories should make your life a lot easier and hopefully save you some time.

Mitzvah Market Magazine: The Power Of A Personalized Tallit

By Bethany Kandel

While every Bar Mitzvah boy and Bat Mitzvah girl may wear a tallit during services, the pieces of cloth are all unique.

Wrapping oneself in a shawl during prayer or reading from the Torah is meant to aid in attaining a proper mood of reverence for God. Made of silk, cotton, wool, or synthetics, a tallit can be plain and simple, or highly adorned. What transforms it from a mere piece of cloth into a tallit are the tzizit, the specially knotted fringes on the four corners, which are to remind us of the commandments of the Torah.

The tallit a young boy or girl wears for their Bar or Bat Mitzvah, can have great significance. Some are passed along from generation to generation. Others are bought on a trip to Israel. And now, many young people are choosing to either make or design their own, to add personal and truly unique meaning and expression to the symbolic garment.

Do you love the color purple? Design one in all its gorgeous shades. Why not weave in the names of your beloved late grandparents? Or how about including a whole family tree? When you design your own tallit, the sky is the limit. Here are some ways to create your own:

Weaving At The Loom Room

For the past four years, the Loom Room founded by the sisterhood at Neve Shalom Synagogue in Metuchen, NJ, has been a hub of activity and creativity. Hundreds of tallitot have come off the loom with colors that represent the rainbow, as well as the traditional blue and white stripe.

“It’s a priceless experience for the whole family to create a custom tallit,” explains Cory Schneider, founder of the Loom Room. Not only are they creating a one-of-a-kind family heirloom, but “It’s a journey they do together. It creates powerful memories. You don’t get that when you buy a tallit in the store.”

Laurie Solomon recently completed tallitot for each of her two young sons and a challah cover for her daughter there. The entire family took part in the weaving process, from the 93-year-old great-grandmother, to the youngest 6-year-old son. Why do it now, when her sons are only 10 and 6? “To make sure all the generations were around to participate,” says Solomon.

“I was never a weaver; I had no idea what I was getting into,” she adds. But over the months of work, she became very proficient. Now that the projects are complete, she’s excited for them to be worn by her sons in the future. “It’s something so meaningful and they’ll have forever. I hope they’ll remember the love and work that went into making them, and always think of us when they wear them; even we’re no longer around.”

Make Your Own

“I want the tallit to be a work of art,” says New York textile artist Susan Schorr. She works with students at West End Synagogue to design, dye, and paint on silk, sometimes using an ice-dye method. For kids who are vegetarians, or especially environmentally aware, she offers fabric made out of bamboo, pineapple leaves, cruelty-free silk, and even from recycled soda bottles.

Before starting the process, she encourages the kids to go through a design process and play with color until they find something they love. “I remind them to think to the future,” she says. “Some designs might be great for a 12-year-old, but they aren’t going to want to wear them at 17. They all want something they are going to be proud of.”

Some students incorporate photos, embroidery, and other embellishments. They often want to print quotes, including the traditional blessing. “I had one student who wanted to use the quote ‘Man plans; God laughs.’ The parents weren’t too happy about it, until they discovered that it was the quote the grandfather had used in his law school yearbook. Then they loved it.”

She encourages all the family members to get involved in tying the tzizit to make it even more special.

One-of-a-Kind Creativity

When Maxine Feldman was planning her son’s Bar Mitzvah 15 years ago, she wanted to do something creative for him. So, the New York City printmaker designed a tallit in his favorite colors, green and yellow.

She collaborated with a quilter from Ashland, OR, to complete the project. When people kept asking where she got his tallit, a business was born. Now Feldman works with local students to create custom tallitot out of raw silk. She hand-paints the four corners and a colorful stripe down the middle or a piece to go underthe atara. She can also make a matching pouch.

“I ask them what colors they like; what color combinations,” she says. “They love playing around with swatches and choosing color schemes. They want to be a part of the process instead of going to the store and just picking out a premade one. These are special and they’ll last a lifetime.”

The Best Ideas for a Virtual Bar Bat Mitzvah Project

If your Bar Bat Mitzvah child is home for the summer, this is a perfect time for them to work on their Mitzvah Project, or move their existing project to a virtual format.

Many Mitzvah projects can easily be started (and completed) from the safety and comfort of your home. Food shopping for the elderly, donating books to an under-served community and hosting virtual fundraisers are just a few of the causes young tweens can do with minimal help from an adult.

See below for Mitzvah Market’s Favorite Virtual Mitzvah Project Ideas and Organizations: 

Projects Related to COVID-19

Perhaps the easiest Mitzvah Project to implement right now is to send letters to vulnerable members of your community who may be at stuck at home due to the Coronavirus pandemic — or to local healthcare workers who are on the front lines. 

Contact local nursing or rehabilitation centers or hospitals to find out who has the greatest need. Enlist friends and family members to join your letter writing campaign with posts on your social media

OperationGetWell.com was started by Paula Rosenthal in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as a free get well card campaign. Paula created the site to send messages of hope and care to hospitalized patients in New York who have been unable to receive visitors. It has grown to become an international effort with hundreds of participants who have helped to distribute thousands of get well messages

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center's Words of Encouragement initiative sends virtual thank you's to the NYC hospital's healthcare workers

Ideas from The Mitzvah Bowl

The Mitzvah Bowl is a terrific online resource for meaningful Mitzvah projects. Here are some of their ideas:

The African Library Project has several online initiatives that can be completed from home. The One Box program sends containers of gently used books to children around the world. The organization has also partnered with HomeFirst in the San Francisco Bay Area to donate reusable face masks to the homeless community during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Food Shop for the Elderly- A Bar Bat Mitzvah student (along with their parent) can shop for an elderly neighbor and deliver groceries to their door step.

Plant a Giving Garden- Traditionally food banks rely on canned goods, but with many Americans losing their jobs, some food banks are expanding to include fresh fruits and vegetables. Grow a garden in your backyard and donate the excess crop to a local food bank who will take fresh produce!

Mask fundraiser: Buy masks at a wholesale price or DIY them and sell them to friends and family online-- the proceeds can go towards the Covid-19 charity of your choice.

Online Trivia Fundraiser: Use a trivia website and invite your friends/family for a one night or weekly event. Ask for a donation which will go to the cause of your choice.

Podcasts for a Cause- If your Bar Bat Mitzvah child feels strongly about a cause or organization, is an expert on a particular subject matter, or just likes to talk a lot, have them put together a series of podcasts to share on social media. Before getting started, order a podcast microphone on Amazon and look into the various hosting sites. Buzzsprout, Podbean, and Simplecast are good starter platforms with free trials or low monthly fees.

Motivate someone else by running with Back on My Feet, which combats homelessness through the power of running, community support and essential employment and housing resources.

Where to Donate Your Mitzvah Project Proceeds

Lev LaLev (Heart-to-Heart) is a girls' orphanage in Netanya, Israel. The organization will work with you to create a personalized Mitzvah project to benefit their at risk residents. Learn more here

If you're looking for an organization to donate your Mitzvah Project proceeds, check out Celebrations In Israel's suggestion: The Holland Center in Jaffa, Israel is a day treatment program and medical clinic for children with autism. They presently need funding to purchase pediatric walkers for their patients

Bar Bat Mitzvah Twinning Program

Yad Vashem twins the Bar Mitzvah child with a child who had something in common – a birthday, a name, a country. In these days when flying to Israel is not an option, the child receives all the relevant information on their “twin” and a special certificate, acknowledging participation in the twinning program
