I've been working on a few video projects:
- A Fall Festival promo video for Woodbridge Community Church. It's basically a Halloween alternative event on October 30th. It sort of has a country fair atmosphere. They gave me a bunch of pictures from previous festivals. Some of them are from as far back as 1997. I think I'll arrange them into some sort of slideshow, but they suggested having some banjo music in the background since it's a country-type festival. That's where I'm kinda stuck. Where am I gonna find banjo music? Anyone know of any Christian/worship songs that feature a banjo? Or anything that might work?
- A series of Children's Christmas Musical promos for my church, FACI. The plan is to show a different promo every Sunday up until the week of the musical (starting November, I think.) I know for one video I can just use a number of clips from the musicals of the last 3, maybe 4, years. The musical is called The "S" Files, and it's about a bunch of kids who set up a website and answer emails from other kids including the key question, "What is the real meaning of Christmas?" Maybe for another video, I can work with the email thing and stick a subtle Strong Bad reference in there. Only a few people would probably get it, but hey, as long as one person notices it, that's all that counts.
- A video for FEBC showing some of their ministry work in the Philippines. I'm not too sure on this yet. I have yet to receive video footage and details on what they're looking for. FEBC is a missions organization that mainly works with radio and everything involved with it such as sound engineering and music. I believe they were planning to open up a video department, but I think there are still some issues to be worked out concerning that. So I guess right now, I'll be working with them on just a project by project basis. That'll be so great to be a regular part of that team, though.
