Find out more: https://prestonwoodgoc.org More about the Church Media Checklist for Holiday Programs (or how to avoid the nightmare before Christmas) 1. Start preparation early. Whether it’s live, multi-cam or video-taped, get your hands on a script or musical score as soon as possible. 2. Bring your crew into the planning process. Your media team and volunteers may have valuable ideas that can help the production. 3. Understand lighting differences. Make sure you understand the difference between stage lighting and television lighting. 4. Create a shot list. Always have a plan. 5. Stop screaming and yelling. If you’re directing a Christmas or Easter presentation and you lose control, you instantly lose respect with your team. 6. Use cuts and dissolves correctly and know the difference between them. There should be a purpose behind your choices. 7. Shoot a rehearsal. It’s worth the extra money and time to bring in a paid staff or your volunteers. 8. Have a debriefing. Especially when you have multiple performances, shoot and debrief after each one. 9. Toss out normal service camera rules. Don’t be afraid to move the cameras around according to the script or music plan. Watch the full episodes!
