This church newsreel was shot on the Sony a7sii and Rode Pro microphone, utilizing a basic white balance card and Sekonic light meter for optimal exposure triangle and coloring. The newsreel was edited via the Adobe Creative Suite 2020 (Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Audition), while the pre-reel intro video was created exclusively with After Effects. As a reformed church with traditional theology, we approach church media with a straightforward simplicity that best represents our brand and engages our audience in an authentic way. The biggest challenge to the weekly newsreel is creating professional, engaging content while maintaining our church’s vision. We try to do this by varying the host, location, and script each week.
