Learning Curve: VJing

In my quest to learn more about VJing and creative image stuff, yesterday I downloaded a free trial version of arkaos, a very, very cool programme that lets you do all sorts of things to images, add music, detect a beat, insert live video feed, flash files or pre-recorded stuff - you name it!

Now I'm having a ball just fiddling around and discovering how it works (which is basically how I've learnt everything I know about computers and most other things in life). Wish I could create something for Sunday's service (my last worship team duty!), but they'd definitely, definitely chuck me straight out the nearest door if I tried it. PowerPoint seems to be the creative limit...

Last time I was on duty, the (new) worship leader wanted to have pens and paper available for prayer time, so people could do something other than just stand there and sing/pray. It didn't happen. Not approved by worship pastor. I never found out why.

So church VJing is SO out of the question for this group! :) But it's cool to mess around with anyway. And it's giving me something new to do today. As they say, a change is as good as a holiday - considering my next holiday is in September, I'll have to make do with the change for now.
