Films for Christ
Meeting every Saturday from April 10th to June 26th

The "FILMS FOR CHRIST" workshop is a unique, hands-on learning experience where teens and pre-teens learn the filmmaking process by creating Christian films of their own. From pre-production to post-production, teens will learn how a film is made.
Teens will learn the following:

- Basic Video recording techniques
- Basic Audio recording techniques
- Lighting for digital filmmaking
- Basic Video editing
- Basic DVD authoring
- And MORE!
The workshop will be lead by Danny Terry, the Audio-Video Technician for Trinity Baptist Church. Danny is a professional freelance videographer and also works as a Video Streaming Technician for the Christian Broadcasting Network in Virginia Beach, VA. Danny is the Producer of the family-friendly documentaries, "Doumar's: 100 Years of Service" and "Civil War Days". For some samples of Danny's work, click here.
