Last year around this time, I was working at a TV station full time, taking a few classes and volunteering at CedarCreek.  With all that, I was fortunate enough to be able to attend some planning meetings for the Easter service.  There was a lot of talk about a video to a song a larger church did at their previous Easter service called Crimson.  Since we were unable to get a copy of it, I ended up doing a version of it.  With inspiration coming directly from the 300 end credits, a silhouette Garden of Eden was created.  Back then it was one of my favorites…but watching it now I get kind of bored.

 Because I dropped an external hard drive with the only backup, this year I’m recreating Crimson…only better!  The tree will be cooler looking, the leaves will actually be apple tree leaves instead those of a maple, and the text won’t be done in less than an hour.  Here’s the version from last year.  After Easter, I’ll post the new one so the three of you that read this can compare it.

Sometimes with all the lyric videos we do it's hard to keep them fresh.  I've had plenty of songs where I just can't think of a good visual theme to go along with them.  Last week with the song God of this City by Chris Tomlin, I saw his CD art and immediately concluded I wanted to do a video that looked like it.  It had a skyline with the sky an orangish color and a grungy texture on top.  I ended up tracing a bunch of buildings in pictures of city skylines and dropping a paper texture over the top of my video.  Take a look!
