Placeholder footage, not the brothers

Personal messages

A video just for them

Pick a brother, pick the occasion, and tell them what to say. Potato and Hash record it, and what comes back was made for exactly one person.

Requests are not open yet, so nothing on this page can be ordered today. Here is precisely how it will work when they are.

Take four. It usually takes four.

Casting

Choose your brother

Same breed, same wrinkles, wildly different energy. One of them is right for the person you have in mind, and you will know which as soon as you read these.

Potato

Warm, forward, and pleased to see you before you have said a word. He greets everyone and wants to be involved in all of it. Best for the sociable ones.

Hash

Reserved, dignified, and in no hurry about any of it. Expect a long look, a considered pause, and a dog who is completely yours once he has made his mind up.

Potato and Hash together

Double the brothers, double the wrinkles, two completely different opinions of you. Save this one for a moment that deserves both of them.

Start to finish

Five steps, no surprises

  1. Pick a brother

    Potato, Hash, or the pair of them at once. Genuinely the hardest decision in the whole process, and there is no wrong answer.

  2. Pick the occasion

    A birthday, a wedding, a new job, or a Tuesday that has simply not gone well. The full list of good excuses is further down this page.

  3. Say what you want said

    Their name, how to say it out loud, and the small details that make it theirs. Inside jokes are very much encouraged. Nicknames even more so.

  4. A person reads it first

    Every request is read by a human before a camera comes out. If it is not something the brothers can do, we say so and refund you in full.

  5. It arrives, made for one person

    Yours to watch, download, and send on. It stays private unless you tell us you would like it shared.

Nobody presses record until a person has read your request.

Good excuses

What people will ask for

Pick one when you request a video. The brothers have opinions about all of them, and very strong opinions about at least two.

  • Birthday
  • Anniversary
  • Congratulations
  • Encouragement
  • Holiday
  • Wedding
  • Graduation
  • Pet shout out
  • Just for fun
  • Other

Do not see yours? Pick Other and tell us about it. One brother will agree to anything, and the other will agree once he has thought it over.

The list

Be told the day this opens

One email when custom videos are genuinely open for requests, and nothing pretending to be urgent in between. Leave whenever you like, in a single click.

Join the list

Worth reading first: the custom video terms. They cover what can be asked for, what happens when a request is declined, and how a finished video reaches you.

No price, no turnaround and no opening date appears anywhere on this page, because none of them have been decided. They are the owner's call, and they will show up here the moment they are real rather than as a guess somebody has to walk back later.
