For this short, we used a Canon C200, Aputure lighting, and a Dana Dolly. The dolly was a great asset for this project as it helped us enhance the drama of the over-the-top series starter pitch, as well as the ensuing betrayal. Our biggest challenge was coming up with the video itself. We knew the series title was “Bondservant”, and that the pastor would love something in the spirit of a James Bond film, but had no idea how to do that and it be relevant to the text we would be covering during the series. That dilemma eventually sparked…

Video 5/5: This video series is the biggest project we’ve ever produced. It includes a trailer to promote our series “Anger City Limits” as well as four individual weekly sermon bumpers. We took a lot of inspiration from old spaghetti westerns in terms of shooting style and production design. Luckily, we have an old west museum in our city that served as a film backlot for the majority of this shoot. That gave us a great foundation to work with. Another crucial aspect to this project was our set shop team. They built a practical sign for us to film…

This video promoting our series “Worlds Of Warfare III: The Weapons” was all shot in our studio. We wanted to really focus on the weapons in this piece so our set shop built us a weapon rack to display them all on. We utilized smoke to create some atmosphere and really pushed the mood with a high-contrast lighting setup. To achieve the fire effects, we covered the sword blade and the arrow in rubber cement and lit them on fire. Shooting at a higher frame rate also helped push the style we were going for with this piece. Equipment: Canon…

“As we enter into this new year may we do it with a heart that desires to go deeper. Deeper for the sake of Jesus, for His glory, and His people.” This video was used at the beginning of the year for two purposes. A new series called “Growing Deeper” and an announcement of our church annonucing having two services instead of one. The hope was that people would grasp what TRUE growth is. The key shot in this was when all the people “appear” in the shot to the beat of the song. This was a 5 part split…

We concluded a message series about Heaven with a worship night where this video served as the opener. Amanda Lewallen, seen in this video, brought a poem she wrote inspired by the series to our worship director. We had her cut down the poem a bit for time and then had her come in to read it. We had planned on using multiple angles and movement but it all took away from the actual words of the poem. In the final edit we cut it down to this simple one take front-on shot and used the colors, overlays, and music…
