Christmas Church Videos

All of the videos that Tim and I recorded during the Sunday, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day services have been editing and posted to YouTube. We have some extremely talented musicians in our congregation! You can find all of these videos on the Calvary YouTube page or check out individual videos from the links below.

The last video in this list uses two camera angles, one of which is a GoPro positioned over the shoulder of our organist, Dave. It’s fun to watch his fingers fly over the keys. Next time we do this, I need to get another camera pointing at his feet. His appendages are a blur!

Since recording all of these videos, I have reworked the sound board and I think that our next batch of recordings will have even better sound. Most of the sound you hear in these videos comes from a portable Sony recording device left on the front pew. In situations where the speakers/singers/musicians were right in front of one of the main church mics I was able to use some of that sound as well. In the future I hope to rely more on the church mics as they can be positioned much closer.
