This is something I tried to stay away from. Mostly from fear of not knowing what to do or how to even go about it, but I guess that’s why God has geared us with certain abilities to figure things out. When everything shut down back in March, our church went into an all virtual attendance format, which meant that everything that our congregation interacted with was now in a digital format of some sort. I had already been making announcement videos and handling the live stream but this move it amped everything up multiple notches. I had to jump deep into learning more about Adobe Premier, producing/directing a live event with multiple camera angles, program formatting (similar to how you watch a television show), and a number of things I would have never stepped into. I went from a comfortable photography knowledge to something which was way above my skill and knowledge level. So right now, I give the glory to Jesus for leading and seeing me through this.
As we moved into a new message series titled “REBUILD” a study on the Book of Nehemiah, we wanted an intro video before each message that would be fun but still point towards the theme of the message. I’m so thankful for my team of idea thinkers and people in our church who are willing to act in front of the camera to make this happen. The episode is based on the HGTV renovation shows that air and focus on the building adventures of Mike the Rebuilder as he tries to meet his client’s needs and gives glory to God at the same time.
If you’d like to check out the “REBUILD” message series you can view them here. There will be more episodes to come.
