HIS Team

I'm making my first real movie. :) Its name is "HIS Team" and its purpose is to glorify God. the whole film (all maybe 15min of it) is about a flag football team organized by a church, and their purpose is to play in their city's flag football league to give God glory through the way they play. :)

It is based on a true story that our pastor (from our church in IL) told us, about his church in WI.

Now, to do work like this, it doesn't only take one man. There are many spots where I need people to help. Thankfully I've gotten help from some people, but if you're interested in helping out, I'd be very grateful. :) If you have a brother/dad who would like to help out, I need a lot of guys who like to play football and don't mind being taped while they're doing it. :)

Plus, just because you aren't a guy doesn't mean that you can't help out making a football movie. If you know a little bit about making movies, or just want to share how I can make things better, that would help me tremendously.

Tell me if you think this is something you want to do. But most of all, pray that it gets done and that it glorifies God.

  1. Great! Glad to hear it. That's really an inspiring story... What camera are you using? Wish I could be down there to help you out! See ya Labor Day [hopefully-you had us half-fooled last time:)]

  2. BTW, where can I find free special effects software?

  3. I'm either going to be using my old DV camera that records onto Hi8 tapes, or my friend Roger might be letting me use his new HD camera. :) And as to the FX software... ? I have no idea... I have Pinnacle Studio as my editing software and it comes with a lot of special fx, and it's not free to get Pinnacle... So, I haven't the foggiest - as they say in England. :D

  4. Thanks. Searches have mostly been fruitless. Perhaps an investment? Maybe I should learn Blender, which is free CGI but very, very complicated.

  5. Hey Justus,

    That sounds really neat! Especially basing it off of a true story. If you need any help with anything let me know! : )
