Creating the Look and Atmosphere for your Camera

And getting the most from your equipment

Picture
It’s Christmas planning season and many of our friends and customers have found themselves in a different place with their technology than they had ever dreamed they would be. Where many people had planned on making small upgrades this year, they instead found themselves making entire changes to how they go about working with or reaching people. Some of our customers are still waiting, months later, for their system upgrades to come in stock. If anyone waited just a few weeks after the first COVID-19 challenges to make large video system improvements, there was already a massive delay in the industry. Normally, this time of year we encourage everyone to finalize their Christmas upgrade plans and ideas so we can get items ordered, but most have either already ordered or video equipment is so backordered into next year there may not be an opportunity, even now,  to get the project done. So, where do we start in this new world as we go into the Christmas season? Especially, for churches with production on the horizon? The crew at Lambda would like to suggest two areas to focus on: training and lighting.

A Simple Set-up is Sometimes the Best

With the unexpected rise and spread of Covid19, it quickly created new problems for everyone. The Navigators ministry was faced with the task of taking their numerous in person conferences and converting them all into virtual online conferences. 
​Lambda AV designed a compact streaming system that would allow them to have a multi-camera live stream of all the keynote speakers. It also had the ability to run a full graphics system while being set up virtually anywhere.

The Benefits of Installing in Stages

2/11/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
The Summit Church upgrade covered Audio, Video, Lighting and general stage design. It was a big project for Lambda, so after the initial design and approval to move forward by the church, Lambda decided to approach the install in stages. We were able to add the equipment in a logical order over the course of two months. We did this for several reasons.
Picture
First, it gave the church time to hire electricians to come in and update the buildings wiring. We’ve joked before about using a plug strip for power, but in reality, for the install we were about to do, Summit needed to make sure they had plenty of power circuits! Not only is it safer to have the appropriate power supply, but it also protects all that expensive equipment and makes sure that when you need to power cycle, you can do it in a safe, easy way. Second, it not only gave the church more time to make a few payments towards the install, but it gave their tech team time to “play” with each new completed stage. After each stage of the install Andrew was able to request adjustments and simply better understand each detail that went into the placement of the equipment.
The third benefit of doing the install in stages was the time it allowed the Summit tech team to learn about their new equipment. It’s difficult to change a system and learn about video, audio and lighting all in one go. Doing the install in stages allowed us to plan in training time for each part. At the end of Video week the Lambda video experts trained the Summit video techs and then stayed to make sure their first service went smoothly and everyone could get their questions answered. Having the Lambda expert in video, audio, and lighting meant that Summit got the best training possible on each install phase.
Picture
Picture
Through the initial design process and even the first weeks of installation, Lambda was able to build a relationship with Summit. Summit Church and Andrew saw the benefit of having an expert from Lambda that they could trust to offer the best solution in each situation. Through this relationship of trust and communication, when Andrew said, “Get me some new mics.”, Trevor, our Audio expert, was able to go pick out mics that met every expectation from the Summit Tech Team and those on their stage.
It took a lot of planning and time to build and integrate the updates to Summit, but everyone involved couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!

A Team Building Study

We like to share a lot of case studies based on installs we complete at Lambda. We share them because we realize many of our customers are interested in ideas about what others are doing. They want to see new and cool ideas or innovative solutions being practically implemented in spaces like theirs. With churches these case studies are typically about new gear or new ways of using gear, however, with the race for live-streaming during the COVID-19 pandemic, we noticed other helpful information people were looking for were ideas on teaching, coaching, processes, and best practices. So, we welcome you to Lambda Teams case studies where we share conversations and ideas not centered around gear, but around great ideas and conversations had with teams.

Building a Solid Base for Your Team

Village Seven Presbyterian Church (V7) came to us in the middle of Covid because they needed help with their video streaming. They were in the middle of transition in their AV department and the team needed help getting their stream and recently new system working well for the coming weekend. So, Village Seven found themselves looking for training on their new system. Their main areas of concern were color matching their cameras with each other, getting the lower 3rd lyrics for the stream looking correct on screen and just general operation of their video system that we had just installed. They had an idea in mind of what they wanted their production to look like, but did not have the knowledge of how to immediately implement that vision.

"People make the gear great, not the other way around."

ProPresenter 7

You’ve heard the term ProPresenter, but what exactly is it and how can the newest version benefit you? ProPresenter is a presentation and production application for live events that can be applied across platforms such as Mac and Windows. It seamlessly displays lyrics, media and slides making high quality production easy. It is an indispensable tool for all worship services, conferences, and other gatherings.
The ability to create high-quality video is becoming increasingly easy, making the use of videos in productions more prevalent than ever. The ProPresenter video engine is the perfect way to present your final edit. You can import and play videos instantly in ProPresenter. It also includes the ability to set in and out points dynamically, effect color, brightness, and volume, and crop/scale videos dynamically. 
In addition, these same effects and manipulations can also be used on live video sources. Not only does ProPresenter streamline the content you display on your main screens, but it empowers you to communicate information to the people on the stage too. Show the content your stage talent needs to see, such as: clocks, timers, current slides, notes, and stage announcements. With the output capabilities of ProPresenter you can use any layout on as many stage displays that you have.

​ProPresenter 7 is worth taking note of as it now includes several advanced features that were previously sold as add-ons for ProPresenter 6. Most organizations these days, however, have grown more sophisticated in their productions, so having these add-ons included in the purchase of the software is a big motivator to upgrade. The new features include multi-screen, edge blending and SDI capabilities and more.

The multi-screen feature allows output to multiple displays with different combinations of content all at once, including multiple stage displays. The edge blending feature allows you to project onto a wide screen with multiple projectors. With edge blend you can now create one seamless, extra wide picture!

ProPresenter 7 cuts down on costs by adding more features to the main package and increases the number of things you and your team can do to create a dynamic, engaging presentation! It might just be time to upgrade your ProPresenter software!
