Our creative team did an amazing live cover called “Wild,” by Local Sound. Church by the Glades is led by Pastor David Hughes. We are all about two things: Jesus and His Word. We are a hyper-creative and a fully-charged church where no perfect people are allowed.
A look at all of Snyder Memorial Baptist Church through the stories of members. I used a Canon 77d DSLR, Neewer ring light, Rode Shotgun mic, DJI Mavic Air, along with Adobe Premiere Pro for post-production. Biggest challenge in this video was grabbing shots from the many different facets of the church. Music, orchestra, dance, worship, service, missions, relationships, weddings, baptisms, dedications, etc. They all don’t happen every week and so the time it took to procure the content was much longer. I tried to frame the shot to capture a realistic view of the environment that the subjects are…
This project was all about drawing the viewer into the lives of the many church mothers across the generations of our congregation. Our Children’s Minister, Karen McAmis, assisted on this video by coordinating the families and the logistics bring this shoot to life. I used a Canon 77d DSLR, Neewer ring light, Rode Shotgun mic, along with Adobe Premiere Pro for post-production. I attempted to show the subjects interacting with their children at home giving the viewer a picture of the authenticity of everyday life. Biggest challenge with this shoot was the weather. We had to travel around the city…
A video highlighting congregation members and staff welcoming everyone to worship. I used a Canon 77d DSLR, Neewer ring light, Rode Shotgun mic, along with Adobe Premiere Pro for post-production. This was a much more artistic endeavor. Tried to minimize any distractions in the background to get the viewer to focus on the spoken word being delivered by a wide cross-section of generational members. The biggest challenge with this project was keeping the subjects in the relative same place during the shoot to make the frames match from person to person. Also, the varying audio levels made post production a…
A COVID video designed to keep the church together during Easter week. This was our Maundy Thursday service to start the Holy weekend. Equipment: shot with a Canon 70D using a 28-135mm lens. Video compiled in Adobe Premiere Pro, graphics and text added with Adobe After Effects. Music bed is an original composition by one of our church members. Technique: basic eye level to low angle shots to simulate “eye witness” perspective. Some scenes shot into the late afternoon sun for “in camera” lens flares. Challenges: With this Easter Event at the beginning of COVID-19 related lock-down, the challenge was…
One of a series of videos of our worship leaders singing Christmas songs we used as promos for our Christmas services. This was shot Using 2 Sony FS 7 MKIIs and 2 Sony FS 5 MKIIs.
At the time we only had an old Sony camera (Model: HDR-CX560). It took quite a few shots and editing to get the thriller style we were going for. If we had it to do over, we would change a few things.
This video represents a difficult time one of our members had and a battle with depression along with the impact the ministry had on getting her to a better place mentally. This project was filmed by me in her home using a Sony A7iii and a few Aputure LED light panels.
This project focused on one of our members who was battling cancer and how the ministry and members of the church had a positive impact on his life. This project was filmed with the Sony A7iii by Michael Yarborough.
