    Two weeks ago the video team at our church decided to make a stop motion video for an upcoming sermon. However, neither of us has done it before. First day, was a Wed. night and we spent nearly three hours just getting the lighting right. We were using ALL stage lighting, I think it was like 7000watts or something like that. Then we began to shoot and my camera battery died. That's right, these are all stills, well over 900 of them. The last day of the shoot for me was Sat. Had an eight hour stint of sitting under hot lights and peering through the tiny viewfinder of my camera. Then another guy on our team did ALL the post editing. I'm proud of this video. Took a lot of time and effort to do. Hope you all enjoy. :D

    I want to be whole. We kind of stretched it a bit with Mr. Potato Head, but the pastor had a kick out of it. He didn't see it till it aired, which worried us, but he's cool and joked about it then gave our team props. :lol
