Media Resources

Here are several site where you can find useful stuff for your church media
department

Media resources

Worshipfilms.com - motion video and still backgrounds as well as "ckips" for
sermons, etc. Buy individually or in volumes

Sermonspice.com -

Sermonvideos.com -

Worshiphousemedia.com -

Sermonade.com -

Meatloafmedia.com -

- all different individual videos, backgrounds, everything. Some of
the sites are better than others. And also some are stores so you'll see the
same media at each one.

Shoutable.com - the store of Mediashout plug-ins and movies.

Highwayvideo.com - very contemporary videos

lifechurch.tv/free-church-resources - this is a church that basically gives
away every media they make! Very cool stuff.

Flashlightfilms.com - Hollywood caliber Christmas and Easter videos of
Jesus, etc.

Tools

Mediashout.com

Easyworship.com

- two different programs for doing "church media"

midnightoilproductions.com - great sermon title stills and movies, also good
training resources

http://www.textweek.com/movies/themeindex.htm - Movie Theme Index, okay

Movieministry.com - subscription that categorizes movie clips - better

You know that you need a license to play movie clips, right?!

CVLI.com - Christian Video Licensing (if you're at a Methodist church,
contact the conference.)

Screenvue.com - a service of CVLI, basic is included with CVLI. Movie clips
by topic, PLU, some of the clips are downloadable right from the site. Even
stuff that isn't on DVD yet.

I hope that is helpful!

This is a highlight video we produced to showcase Cynthia Pinckney Ministries on January 18, 2009.

Superbowl tech

We will need massive help on February 1 to help set up for the Super Bowl,
primarily due to the screen set-up. Here is a list of TECH resources and
where they will be acquired from. If you think something is missing, please
advise.

1. Video Projector (floater from S.H.)
2. Screen - already in B&G, need power/controller from shed
3. Long S-video or composite cables - Chapel booth has most of the long
cables now.

* We may need "barrels" if we are short. It is easier to put the tuner
by the sound and run one cable to the projector, than to put the tuner by
the projector and run two long cables to the PA.

4. Long COAX antenna cable to put antenna outside - upstairs Sanctuary
mech. room
5. Extension cords - green box from Sanctuary booth
6. Digital converter box - from Sanctuary booth (don't forget the
remote!)
7. Antenna - from Sanctuary booth
8. Sound system - need to discuss with Robin. I don't think any of us
will find the Passport adequate.

* Amp
* Speakers with stands
* Speaker cables
* One mic
* Long mic cable(s)
