  • Show A Live Twitter Feed At Your Next Event

    One of the neat things I’ve seen at big conferences is live “tweets” being displayed at the breaks…or as a part of an Q&A from the audience. A lot of the “cool” churches with younger audiences are doing it too. It’s one thing to encouraging tweeting (come-on guys tweet using…

  • WebVideo University

    I have found that WebVideo University has been a fantastic resource for learning tips and tricks of the video trade. “Dave Kaminski is a professional copywriter, videographer, photographer and 10-year veteran of direct response marketing whose work in multimedia advertising has resulted in millions of dollars worth of sales. A former U.S.…

  • Why I’m Ga GA for Google Voice

    What can I say? I admit it…I’m too cheap to pay for a texting plan. That doesn’t mean I don’t need to text people…or that people don’t text me. I just do it for free…with Google Voice. [youtube http://youtu.be/cOZU7BOeQ58] My favorite feature  is that I get texts and voice messages sent…

  • Photo Editing On the iPad With SnapSeed

    I do a lot of photography, both personally and here at the church. I’ve been a Photoshop user since version 1.0 (which only edited gray scale images) and over the years have tried a lot of various photo editing tools. All that to say, I have NEVER found a photo…

  • Church Communications by Yvon Prehn

    Like I mentioned last week, for the past several years, every month I look forward to  receiving the free digital version of Christian Computing Magazine. One of my favorite regular contributors is Yvon Prehn.

    If you’ve ever tried to make a video slideshow using PowerPoint, you need Animoto. I can’t tell you how many times this service has come in handy. Animoto creates motion videos out of your still photos and video clips…but really simply and very fast. It’s a cloud based service that…

    For the past several years, every month I look forward to receiving the free digital versions of Christian Computing Magazine and Christian Video Magazine. Both publications feature tips and tricks, industry trends and helpful information in navigating the online world of computers and video. I print it as a magazine on our digital…

  • If Movies Used BAD Fonts

    I couldn’t stop laughing at this… “Can the wrong opening title font ruin an entire movie? Find out for yourself with our remix of Star Wars, The Dark Knight Rises, Drive, and more.” (Video will open in a new window) On a related topic, one ways movies create their iconic look and immersive worlds is…

  • Christmas Fonts

      What makes a font “Christmassy” ? A font with a little whimsy, maybe frosted…or font with an elfish handwritten feel? The folks at Snickety Things put together a nice collection of 16 Christmas Fonts….all free. Enjoy : )

  • FREE Chalkboard Fonts

    You can NEVER have enough fonts… I ran across this collection of free Chalkboard Fonts that I thought I would pass on. I’ve added it to my collection…you should too.

  • Free images from Shutterstock

    As a designer, it’s a good idea to build your stock photography library…and it’s better when you can do it for free. Each week I have my Ministry Assistant download the one free vector image and one free photo image from Shutterstock. Two free images a week = 104 high…
