GREATEST PERSON
The participants in this video had only a few seconds of preparation to answer our question before we put them on camera. Filmed on a Sunday and turned around in time for the following one. Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects were used for chroma keying and other effects.
 
 
WORDS
Words have power for good or harm. Adobe After Effects was used for the flying text with final touches applied in Adobe Premiere.
 
 
WIRED
I've often produced short clips like this one as a "ramp up" or transition into a Sunday morning sermon. It can be an effective way to recapture the audience's attention or set just the right mood for what's about to come next.
 
 
PRICELESS
Used during a church service to promote an upcoming message on finances, this "commercial" spoofs the Mastercard "Priceless" campaign.
 
EPIC
Sweeping imagery and music were needed for this "ramp up" video used to segue into a sermon each week during church services. Matching banners were designed to extend the theme throughout the worship area.
 
 
MEDITATION
Meditation music by Michael Card layered with waves and sea gulls provides a reflective tone to this video. This was used during a time of reflection in preparation for Communion.
 
 
CHRISTMAS: REEL TO REAL
This "ramp up" video led into a Christmas series of messages at a church. Creating the flying flimstrips required a combination of Adobe Illustrator, After Effects, and Premiere.
 
 
HEY, JESUS LOVES ME
This happy, colorful video highlights the fun and impact of Vacation Bible School at our church. Candid shots captured throughout the week were quickly combined into this montage for the last night. What a great way to celebrate, thank volunteers, and show parents everything that happened!
 
 
HURRICANE RELIEF (excerpt)
Seventeen people traveled over 1000 miles to help a few families rebuild their homes after Hurricane Katrina. Heartwrenching footage accompanies their stories as the team members share what God can do in the midst of such devastation. Music by the David Crowder Band. Full eight minute version available here.
 
 
SUMMER AT THE LAKE
The easygoing feel of this "ramp up" video set the tone for a series of messages at a church during the summer months. Audio layering and video done with Adobe Premiere. I generally carry visual themes like this through to match graphics for the website, CD labels, and print materials for a consistent look.
 
 
EVERY SEASON
"Every Season" by Nicole Nordeman is a personal favorite that I had long wanted to provide imagery for. The still images complement the reflective mood of this powerful song. The ending sequence captured the metaphor of life seasons perfectly.
 
 
BITTERSWEET
Footage from the television miniseries, "Jesus of Nazareth" combined with the song "Bittersweet" by Michael O'Brien creates a moving meditation on Christ's sacrifice. 
 
 
BABY DEDICATION
At the church where I work, babies are dedicated during a special time of the worship service. As pastors and elders pray over the families, videos like this one are shown on the screen. "You Cannot Lose My Love" by Sara Groves provides the background.  
 
 
3D FLY THROUGH
Before a larger room was to be remodeled into space for children's classes, those in charge wanted to visualize how the simulated skylight, special floor tile, and general layout would appear. This architectural fly through was achieved using Cinema 4D software.
 
 
EASTER INVITATION
We brainstormed this video over lunch, shot it in a couple hours, and had it done by dinner time. This clip is only one of four "commercials" that we used to encourage our people to invite friends to our Easter services.
