Live Design: "1. How did you get involved in media production for Northland Church?
I began serving at Northland as a congregant in 1998 when I owned a production company in Orlando. At the end of a very long and diverse path, I ended up joining Northland as creative media director in 2006."

this is rill insetting in the way that a church is such a technical show and that it is a church it is some what reduce and i wonder what type of people would come up with this and fund this because this type of technology is very expensive and not very easy to work with. i wish that it was that easy to get great theater equipment in other ears. i wish i could go see this and see what they have since they seem to have an endless amount of money. i just wish all theater like things had the amount of money that they do,
The amount of spectacle and pizazz in the megachurches is at once incredible and somewhat unsettling. I mean, how much of the tingling on the back of your neck is from the religious experience and how much is from your seatback vibrating with the subwoofer? Creating such a dynamic worship service would certainly be a mind-blowing experience, and as long as the team follows Marty Taylor's statement that the content inspires the technology, then I can justify huge video screens, rock concert audio and theatrical lighting.
I haven't been able to really figure out how I feel about this whole megachurch thing. It sorta feels like the church is resorting to spectacle and entertainment to engage its followers and audience members, rather than the power of worship that it used to have. On the one hand, I'm glad for the industry, and the manufacturers. On the other, I'm not so sure how I feel about religion founding its fan base under the guise of something like this.
