YES! I second that motion! Ane you sure the output level would be
enough? I suppose we could hide it behind the drummer so that we get
an even effect.

I don't have specifics about a solution, but I would suggest that we
redo the center camera somehow since in it's current position it seems
to be wiggling somewhat. Even worse, with the podium so far forward
the angle shows off the top of Alan's receding hairline more than it
needs to, especially when he reads from his Bible. Maybe we can drop
the pole a couple of feet, and reinforce the bar?


Cheers,
Judah

Re: Budget for Media

Now that we have the pen & pencil situations handled, I can't think of anything.
Oh, oh...the center camera, is it still blurry Randall, you mentioned that it might need to be replaced?

Hey guys,
Please let me know if you have any suggestions on what we might want or need for media for the next 12 months so the pastors can include it in the budget.
 
Only think I can think right now is a Hazer Machine.  Please let me know if you have a good suggestion.  Here's my pick:

New Elements for CGI Overhead & Lighting

Hey gang,
So our pastors really love it when we cue the annoucement slides per topic when Allen announces them at the end of the service.  So we are going make this a new and great way to communicate visually the information he is relaying. 
 
We should be getting a list in advance of what slides to put up, and therefore we'll need to have a separate announcement power point at the end with the pre-arranged slides.  So for you guys that are scheduled for CGI Overhead, but sure to include this in your regular preparations.  It shouldn't take too long if we have a list.  Let Milan, JoAnn, or I know if you need any help with this.
 
For this weekend, we'll just need to be sure to put up the Baptism slide. 
Lighting
Also, when you get to church you may notice some new lights!  If you are on light or would like to know what they do, Mark or myself will be able to show you some new moves.
 
The back light behind the white curtain is also ran through the NSI board (old one) so it will be on automatically. (no more plugging it in the wall).
 
Video
Don't mean to leave you videographers out!  Just want to encourage you to try and play with some of the effects and transitions.  We may consider using the PIP, Picture In Picture for the Nuserary Alert so that we can maintain a wide shot of video during the message instead of 5-10 minutes of a power point slide.  We are recording them and uploading them to Google Video. 
 
We'll go forward with being able to upload the captured video on Sunday and have it viewable by Sunday evening.  Please let me know if you would like to help with this process.  It would only require a few minutes of computer use on your home computer later that Sunday afternoon!
 
See you soon Christians! 
 
Randall,
a Christian

Media Fellowship This Sunday

Hey guys,
For this Sunday, let's go to Buffet Palace in Round Rock.  It's at the North East corner of I-35 and 1325 (Luis Henna Blvd).  For lunch I think it will be less than $10, all you can eat. 
 
Meet in front of the church doors inside by 1:10pm.  At that time folks serving for 2nd service should be closed down and headed out of the auditorium.
 
Feel free to bring your family and friends, but like we saw last time, we can get split up so just realize that.
 
Here's the address:
 
2601 S IH 35 Bldg B
Round Rock, TX 78664
Phone: (512) 388-9600
 
See you there!
