Order is everything!
When we're setting up, we always steam the backdrop first because we inevitably spill water on it. This way, the backdrop has plenty of time to dry while we set up the rest of our equipment. We know how important it is to keep the shoot on schedule, and we wouldn't want any delays due to a wet background!
Video is the most powerful communication tool available โ use it to save you time while making your outreach more effective. Here are 6 essential tasks a video can accomplish for you.

Behind the scenes with Glenmary Home Missioners, one of our award-winning clients who bring the Catholic faith to Appalachia and the South!
Last year, they provided 5,000 services. This year, Hope Resource Center in Bedford, IN expects to provide 7,000 counseling sessions, tests, material support and lessons for clients who are facing a difficult or unplanned pregnancies. And yet they are still dreaming bigger - they're launching an entirely new ministry geared towards equipping fathers to support moms and babies.
We created this video to inspire volunteers to join and supporters to donate in order to make that dream a reality.
The chancellor, pastor, director or board is understandably hesitant about using video for outreach. After all, it sounds like a big investment. So how do you get them on board?

What YOU do matters. That's why we do what we do.
You need to be a good steward of your time and money. Even Jesus said so. If your video drives 500 clicks to your website, that means about 5 new enrollments. What are five new enrollments worth to your organization?

Nice to meet you, St. Cloud!
We got to stop by the Diocese of Saint Cloud, MN, and talk about how video can help them supercharge their local outreaches. And we learned something, too! Did you know that their town's namesake was a real priest and now saint of the Catholic church?

In a massive, eight-day, five-location video shoot, we followed the Glenmarians to several of their missions and captured their work in action. The result was three incredible videos that capture the far-flung reaches of this small-but-mighty group.
