On today's Tech, No Babel: Live Video Production: The Language of Transitions
This past Sunday, I was running propresenter (http://www.trinitydigitalmedia.com/propresenter-6-tutorials/) and we had a new director in the chair next to me. Midway through the service, I noticed he was using the "auto-trans" button exclusively. He didn't cut at all.

http://trinitydigitalmedia.com/church-tech On today's Tech Help for Churches: Email Lists for Your Church
Perhaps it can be argued which is more effective, email or text messaging to get the word out, but there's no argument that email is a great way to do it. What's surprising is how few churches have email lists and of the ones who have them, how few actually use them well.
Today, let's talk about some ideas for building an email list and how to use them to further your mission as a church.
First, you should realize that just as a few people have spoiled the idea of hopping into a business to use the restroom, so a few spammers have ruined the idea of email marketing by sending ads for viagra and porn to every email address they can find. As a result, you can't just copy a bunch of emails into the "BCC" field of your Gmail account and expect to be delivered with no problems. Sure, that might work for 10 email addresses, but not 100, and definitely not 10,000. You need to use an email marketing provider.

On today's Tech, No Babel: Video transition meanings in a live video production
One of the easiest ways to tell if someone is new to video is their choice of transition. Video newbies think that the art of creating a video is in choosing "cool transitions," but that's usually not the case.

My first experience with test patterns was on Saturday mornings in the late 70s and early 80s.
Sometimes, I'd get up TOO early to watch cartoons and just see a set of colored bars on the screen.
I didn't know why they had them on the screen and so I thought they just meant "cartoons aren't on just yet."
As it turns out, this set of colored bars on my parents' TV set had a very important purpose. My father, who'd taken a course on TV repair in the 60s didn't bother with doing it, but later, when I first got into videography, I learned it and started to use it.
So, what does this have to do with ProPresenter? As it turns out, quite a lot.
ProPresenter has a BUNCH of test patterns that you can use to make your displays (whether they're TVs, Projectors, or even an LED wall) look better, and objectively so.
Now that you know, how do you use them and where are they located? Watch the video above, starting tomorrow, April 4, 2023 at 11a eastern/ 8a pacific, to find out:
