Call for Footage: Time Out Christmas Video

I waited until after thanksgiving to not confuse the holidays, so the first sentence of Dan’s posting is no longer relevant. Dan would like to add that they are releasing a chunk of the hymn audio the week after Thanksgiving. Please check out Time Out’s Google+ Page and their Facebook page. Thanks!

From Dan at Necessary Roughness:

 

Christmas? Before Thanksgiving? You sell-out! Bear with me, here.

The last two years Time Out has had an extra Advent Bonus Edition and a Christmas Bonus Edition. We’re not going to do those this year in lieu of a new project.

We’re making another hymn video, to be released Christmas Day, featuring my favorite Christmas hymn, LSB 370, “What Child Is This.” Rather than focus the video on the performers this time, we need footage from you.

We are looking for stills and video (that you have permission to submit ) that match well with the lyrics of the hymn. The literal sense is good, but there is plenty of opportunity to be creative. Think of what you can do for, “Joy, joy, for Christ is born,” for example.

This is a great opportunity to show off your church, your community, and your own creativity. We will give you full credit in the credits and in the YouTube notes for what you send us. Free advertising is good, right?

We would like your submissions by December 18, but we would greatly appreciate it if you could send it in earlier. If you want to submit stills of your sanctuary decorated for Christmas, we can be a little more flexible with that. If you have Christmas footage from last year’s services, that would be good, too.

Let us know if you are interested and if you have any questions.
