Pics from Easterfest. (Newsboys) [56k warning]

[Lucas]

Hey all,

I'm a bit of a newcomer to the photography scene and I thought I'd try and take some pics at Easterfest between video cues. (I was on crew @ Mainstage).

So please, criticize and nitpick me! It's the only way to learn!

Enjoy the pics.

Photos look pretty good to me. Just a side note. I liked Tait's DC Talk and solo stuff but he's ruined the Newsboys. Only about two original members still play with them. The new sound is horrible. Of course that's just my opinion.

My wife and I love Tait as the new front man.

Hey There,

Wow, great pictures from Easterfest and thank you for sharing... The worship looked amazing. Sorry I do not have a large amount of expertise in photography or I would give you some input.

Sorry the next queston is not directed related to the post. I was wondering what type of worship software was implemented at Easterfest, if any? Do you know what camera (cameras) and switch was used? I am sure the audio visual setup was quite amazing with live video feeds ect. The lighting looked outstanding. Thanks.

As usual with all the events that I do tech at SongShow Plus was used.
We used broadcast cameras, no idea what models, but they were all fitted out with CCU's etc. Likewise with the switch, it was a rackmount unit with a control surface.

I used a panasonic MX-70 for use with SSP, on my computer I had set 3 different types of display properties, 1 for Chroma Keying, 1 for video playback, and one for general stuff.

We also had live twitter feeds on screen.

See below for a image.

Was the live Twitter feed switched in from a different computer?

Thanks for the information. I am also interested in the setup for your twitter feed. The monitor looks like it includes multiple twitter feeds. How did you combine the latest twitter feeds on one screen? Please explain the setup when you have time thanks.

Yes, the live twitter feed was from a separate computer.
We used a website called "Twubs" that there's a admin interface for it. It allows you to manually approve each twit as it's twittered?. It's pretty nifty stuff.
