Here is what you asked for
Following up on my last post about the ‘So You Think You Can… Lead Kids’ promo here at Church.
The website (hillsongkids.com/leadkids) is actually just a small part of the whole deal. More of a way to get more information and to put out some vision.
The big part of this is leaders simply inviting friends to be a part of the ministry.
Anyway, here’s how I put together the page.
[IMAGE] Kathryn Macdowall worked her photoshop magic on an image for the promo.
[MUSIC] Got a great member of our team Paul Stokes to put together the jingle and add in ‘Lead Kids’ in his home studio (You’re the man Paul!)
[VIDEO] Simply recorded the video on my own really cheap video camera at home and edited in iMovie (comes with every Mac). I turned it black and white because it looked classier/artier keeping it colour which looked like a cheap video recorder. Popped in the image and jingle at the beginning. Maybe about an hour from start to finish for editing. Uploaded to Vimeo with a free account… looks classier than Youtube.
[FORM] Free webform from Google Docs… this is a BRILLIANT tool. Puts all data input into a spreadsheet in Google Docs. If you look around online, similar tools can run pretty expensive! The form mirrors the invitation we gave out to all leaders. The Google option is not ideal, but the price is!
[WEBSITE] Simply created a new page on our site and had one of our web boys create a redirect clonidine street price (ie. hillsongkids.com/leadkids points to that page… watch your browser when you click on the link… it changes). This took a little bit of technical expertise on my part but nothing too fancy.
So there you have it, hope it gave you some ideas.
Its great for your wired young people, they can email the link, twitter it and connect with their friends in the same way they always do.
