Crowd Sourced Video Projects

Over the last week, I’ve come across two different video projects online that are using or used the power and reach of the internet to produce them. The first one is a group that setting out to remake Star Wars, but letting people pick their favorite scene and recreate it however they want. The second is a music video that that was written, produced and shot by user submissions to the creators youtube channel. He also has a bigger vision of getting this song on the UK music charts to raise money for charity.

Here are the videos:

I just love the idea, and really enjoyed the results. I was thinking this could be a fun youth group project. Getting different groups of kids to shoot different parts of video and putting them all together could be a really fun activity. I used to volunteer in a ministry that had a film festival of student made films every year and something like this would have been a great addition.

Wanna Help?

I’m trying to finish up some chapters in a forthcoming book (The Slow Fade). Do you want to help? It’s easy. If you’re working in college ministry I would love to see your job description!!! Did the church you’re at give you one? If you could get it to me in one of the following ways that would be great. I’m not going to be quoting any one individually, my goal is to see how they all compare to one another in a variety of areas. Anyway, if you’re up for it, you can get it to me:

• by posting it in the comments section – this might be good for others to see as well
• by sending an email to stacy@colossaechurch.org
• by putting a link to a URL I can check out.

Thanks a ton.
