Practical Tips for Doing Digital Ministry (Part One)

Kevin Yi March 20, 2020

Here’s a video with some basic best practices for doing video ministry. There’s more to come down the pipeline with regards to getting the hang of how we connect with our students when we’re not able to meet physically. Here’s a few of the topics covered:

1) For those inexperience with video ministry, where do we need to focus on first?

2) What are some low cost options for making sure my audio is good?

3) What should I be thinking about with regards to live streaming versus pre-recorded video?

4) What are the best free video editing software available for PC or Mac?

5) What should I do about hosting small groups online?

6) When we should we be posting our videos?

*Quick note – cheap tripods are not very durable. They use plastic parts that can break. If you’re on a budget, they’re good, but you have to be gentle with these. If you have the budget, you should upgrade to something more durable:
