Come Home Series Recap

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

Come Home series was incredible. Over 1,300 people “came home” during the series. Here are the three bumpers that we used during the series. The second one was a support piece behind our bands playing “You Found Me” by The Fray. You can watch the video here. View these and other videos in the video player.

This is how we opened our christmas event. Click the play button on both videos and then pause and restart them after they have fully loaded to watch them in sync. Also… check out our new series beginning on January 25th called Purple People Leader in the Highlight player or on the video page.

Blog Goal Reached

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009

I had this blog goal of wanting someone from every state to read my blog. I mean, come on, people from indonesia on my blog and not North Dakota! Come on North Dakato, where you been? Well, Rhode Island and North Dakota… Welcome Home! Goal reached. What now?I guess I’ll start with figuring out where I have been for the past 2 weeks! In the morning I am posting our new series teaser and two video elements from our Christmas Eve service and… Atleast one clip from Christmas Eve! Until then…

Christmas Eve Set

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009

Hello! We’re back after a nice vacation! Eight days of phone being dead relaxing! I’m about to start mixing the audio from Christmas Eve. Once the tracks are mixed I’ll be posting some more video of the service online. Here are a few things to look at from the stage design.

First off… We have some incredible photographers! The pictures below are taken by Sean Lyon and Cheyenne Schultz. Sean leads our photography team. Check out their sites to see more about what they do.

God did some amazing things on Christmas Eve. There were over 6000 people in attendance and over 400 salvations! I was blown away by how the night turned out. God is Good.

Here are some insights on the Christmas Eve stage design. There were several considrations… I wanted depth between Pastor Steven/Worship Leaders and the background so we used a scrim behind the band that was about 25ft behind the last piece of lightlight truss you see in these pictures. The scrim was lite with about 30 COLORado 3’s all in line. So that’s the background…

Then we had 40 movers in all. 12 were flown above the stage and 28 were placed on the lighting truss and ground. Zach from Audio Ethics came up with the lighting design for the event.

We had three screens flown over stage. (2) 16ft x 9ft screens on either side of a 24ft center screen. In addition to the screens we had 6 plasmas on stage that expanded the stage out around the bowl of the stage.

The guys from Audio Ethics were great to work with. Check them out if you have any production needs.

All this may be boring but for those of you who wanted to know what all was on stage… there you go! Enjoy the pictures.
