Here’s the latest video! On this one I ran one of the cameras, edited the story, and color graded the footage.

Randy Hahn

In: Demo Reel

This story was really fun. My boss and I flew out to Virginia to interview Randy Hahn, the pastor of Colonial Heights Baptist Church. So on this story, I ran the Steadicam, took some stills, and shot broll. Once we got back, I edited the story and colored the footage. If you look closely, you’ll [...]

One Story: Joey Woestman (That’s Me!)

In: Demo Reel

Remember the One Story campaign? Well, the first one we filmed, the “test case,” if you will, was of me. Remember the post on how some things shouldn’t see the light of day? Well, this is the actual, final version of my One Story.

Naima Imani Lett

In: Demo Reel

On this Advancement story, all I can do is boast. I wasn’t even there for the interview, but Austin did a great job cutting the story and fitting in the broll. Awesome how Naima is using her gifts to work in both the church and Hollywood.

One Story: Linda Tomczak

In: Demo Reel

Linda is one of the cool graphic designers I work with at DTS. I’d never heard her tell her story of coming to Christ before. She’s amazing.
I didn’t do anything on this piece but color grade the footage to give us the nice high-contrasty black and white look we like.

Chuck Swindoll

In: Demo Reel

Our first Advancement story of the year this year is Chuck Swindoll, the pastor at Stonebriar Community Church and the Chancellor at DTS.
Probably the biggest shock I had when I came to DTS as a new student was to see Chuck in chapel the first week. I’d only ever heard his voice before . . [...]

One Story: Glenn Kreider

In: Demo Reel

This is the first of our new campaign called One Story. We’re operating under the assumption that everyone has a compelling story that can be told in one minute. The One Story campaign is for the admissions department at DTS, featuring students, faculty, and staff. We’re hoping it sparks interest in the seminary by showing [...]

Chico West

In: Demo Reel

Now this is a cool story. Chico West runs a half-way house for young men in their transition into recovery. I helped out on this piece by filming broll and taking some stills. One of the other editors did the story and color work.
The most interesting part of this piece was filming the support group [...]

Tim Kimberley

In: Demo Reel

I’m a big fan of this guy. Tim Kimberley worked in the web development department at DTS while going through seminary. He’s the brains behind helives.com and biblemap.org. Tim’s work with high school students on helives.com is the focus of this story.
This was a fun one, for a couple of reasons. I was involved in [...]

David Hampton

In: Demo Reel

Sometimes, it’s really nice when the seminary you work for realizes that not everyone will go out into the pastorate, and is okay with that. David Hampton is a DTS grad who is also a professor at West Point (the military academy). It’s great to see someone doing their best in their occupation because that’s [...]

This may not seem like much, but it's my own personal blog. I write about what interests me - youth ministry, theology, technology, etc. You might find other things on here, like what I believe, boring papers I wrote in school, or little devotionals. I might even include links to things I find interesting and/or funny. You never know. Subscribe to my RSS and you'll never have to come back here - you'll get my content spoon-fed right to you!

RSS What My Wife Is Saying

  • Yes, yes he did that
    We have been without a TV since we got married. By choice. Yeah yeah, we’re weird and we like it that way. Well, in late January, Joey and I went to Best Buy to buy a fancy-pants digital antenna for our tv-computer setup.  We have this thing called Eye-TV; it’s a little do-hickey type thing that plugs into [...] […]
  • The Nap
    Yesterday after church we had a youth leaders lunch (I felt like a bit of a hangers-on since I’m still on a Leave of Absence from being an awesome youth leader) and we sat around and ate Pei Wei and drank Fresca.  Good times. It was raining when we left, and both Joey and I squeaked [...] […]
  • I dance to the beat of my own drum. (Or I guess toilet paper rolls.)
    I don’t know about you guys, but in our house we regular use this little thing called “toilet paper”.  Perhaps you’ve heard of it.  We usually keep plenty of it around because we like it so much it would be a shame to run out.  Well, in the middle of last week in the middle [...] […]
  • Who Are You…?
    So, to preface, I’ve been fighting The Hudge all week.  What, you don’t know what The Hudge is?  It’s like….hold on, first you have to learn to say it right.  It’s pronounced “huuuuuuuuddddddddge” and it kind of sounds like you’re losing a lung while you say it. Everyone, all together: The Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuddddddge. OK, so fighting off The [...] […]
