I wanted to share a video we put together a couple of months ago for the song "God of this City". We totally ripped off the idea to sync this with local pictures and footage from about 5 other churches but I really think the combination of this song with pictures of our community (including footage shot within a couple of miles of the church) really helped to make a powerful song even more meaningful.
Anyway, here's the video. The audio track is the finished mix of this song from our Powell Church Live Volume 2 CD. When we do this song live, we play to a click track I created in Reason. I'm controlling the click track and the video track from my laptop in Ableton Live... Ableton is great in that it allows you to include video so I can run video out from my laptop into our switcher and keep that synced with the clicktrack we use.
Okay, nerd-speak over... enjoy the video.
I did not understand all your techno-speak mumbo jumbo, but great video. Really, it fit well with my day. Thanks.

I think about 99% of everything I do in ministry was at least partially stolen from somewhere!
