Tips For Better Amateur Congregational Movies
Why do some amateur congregational videos look and sound like, well, home movies? During my 14 years as the videographer for the ELCA, I was asked this question more than once. Here are five tips for making your home movies look and sound more professional.
1. The Law of Thirds
Most amateur moves are recorded from a single angle, typically from the back of the room. At the church banquet, the moviemaker stands in the back of the room, hits the record button, zooms in and out, pans left and righ… Continue

Linda,
I think I have deleted a comment of yours by mistake!! My apologies. You can do what Stephen does. Talk to him about what is needed, or trawl around on his website. I think environmental projections would go great at a RED event. Its an easy…
Nice stuff Cyndi. I like the thinking you have done around what you do, before you do it! Not enough people make that kind of close contextualisation to their congregation. Nice.
Thanks, again, to Eric Herron for his "Show and Tell" post! Glad I could be a "guinea pig" for this new way to connect with others on the site. Anyway, I mentioned that I created a PowerPoint presentation to go with the Genesis 1 creation story. It…
Thanks for posting this, Eric! I can't wait to see what other folks are up to!

Saying this was one of the ways he motivated antsy, immature, 16 yr. old jazz musicians to stop playing so many notes wh…

Good to hear from ya!
I'm at Lutheran Church of Hope in West Des Moines, IA where my areas are worship and prayer. Hope is fantastic place to be. During last winter and spring we averaged about 6000 people a week at weekend worship.
More importantly than that is the passion Hope people have for loving God and loving people. My greatest challenge is keeping up with what God is doing in the lives of our volunteer leaders.
Drop by some time, I think you'd like our media department. I'm sure Ryan, our video productions guy, would love to connect with you.
Blessings!
I've been at AF for 12 years in various roles related to worship and music and faith formation and web development. I'm really interested in how technology and open communities and open source creativity are influencing society and, by extension, church. With denominations facing declining memberships, what will the church look like 5, 10, 20 years from now?
Thanks for joining the tour!
