Since I haven’t had the time to upload the live webcast from the control room…I decided to re-post an old video from 722. This is basically the same thing and it includes director audio as well.
YOU need to post the newer one. I am a technical director in Minnesota and would love to see some pictures or videos of your video room. COuld someone email me somepictures or the video_ thanks!
Love your guy’s shots. Awesome stuff you guys have going here. Really blew me away. Around about 6:05 the director calls for some cuts. He cuts to cam 3 and 3 kinda does some fast zooms onto the lead. Is this something you guys do a lot? Has it ever been found to be distracting to the audience? I love it. Just wondering what your feed back has been on those kind of shots.
I don’t think we have gotten feedback from the audience that it’s distracting. Sometimes in our review meetings we think that when it’s done at the wrong time or is over used that it becomes distracting. If the director uses the moves at the right time and chooses the right song with the appropriate level of energy then it usually works. Done correctly it can enhance the experience in the room.
Right, if the movement is motivated then use it. Awesome. So you guys have review meetings? What does this consist of? Directors going over footage? I am currently a technical director, and I also call shots at the same time, and these types of meetings would be very effective at our church.
Sounds like me most Sunday mornings! Great to hear the terminology we’ve been using is the same you are.
I like the 16:9. Ours is still on 4:3 but we’ll get there.
Thank you for sharing this. http://www.newhopepdx.org under Sundays.
Putting together a blogspot that will assist our camera ops, switcher and producers in what to look for, terms, standard cam movements, cadence of switching and training up new leaders.
That will be at http://www.pdxvid.com eventually. Nothing much there at the moment.
Thanks again for letting us see and hear.
