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 to get this filmed, edited, and posted to our website within a few hours. Luckily, had the scripture reference texts the day before, and was able to create the text and graphic overlays ahead of time.
