Serve on the Audio Visual Team

AUDIO
The audio technician is the person who sits in front of that big, intimidating mixer and makes everything sound good. In actuality, it’s not that hard at all. If you have an ear for how things should sound, we can easily train you to run sound on our board. Through multiple hands-on training sessions and observation of others running the board, learning goes quickly. The most important aspect of this job is focus and thinking ahead.
COMPUTER
The computer operator sits next to the sound board operator. This person is mainly in charge of advancing the slides for the worship service. This consists of hitting the right arrow button 100+ times every Sunday morning. They also launch the video stream to YouTube. Concentration is the key for this job. If you miss the button and the slide does not advance, well, we call it the “holy hiccup.” We try to avoid that.
VIDEO
The camera operator takes his perch in the balcony and is in charge of the camera and the internet feed. This person has 2 basic jobs: 1). move the camera to follow the action on stage, and 2). use the video mixer to choose what view (camera or computer) is being broadcast to the internet and to the TV’s throughout the building. It’s not a hard job, unless Gary Head is preaching and running across the stage unexpectedly.
