Your Community Group in 5 Words!

We want you to film your group, at a upcoming group gathering, writing out your groups experience in 5 words.  We want to know what you love about your group, or what you have learned through your group by creatively WRITING out for the camera 5 words that describe your group experience, film it, and then email that video to bdetken@thecrossing.com. There are many ways this can be done....Each member can each hold a sign with one word on it, or they can get a piece of cardboard  and write all 5 words on it, as they are holding it in front of them, it’s up to you to be as creative as you want to be! You can be outside, inside, at the church...you can shoot it anywhere as long as it includes your group, somehow displaying your groups 5 words!

Here are some things to think about before you film:

• Make sure whereever you are filming  has enough light in the room so that the words can be seen on camera.
• Make sure your whole group is in the film.
• Make sure the words are written BIG ENOUGH and LEGIBLY ENOUGH to be read on camera. (Always make them bigger than you think they need to be)
• We will only be showing the images of the groups, not any audio.  Meaning, if you talk on camera, the audience won’t hear anything you say...so make sure you “talk” through your 5  words.
• We need your video by OCTOBER 23rd, to be used in the weekend video.
