There is also a bulk download option – the RFW videos amount to quite a few gigs of vids!

Check it out – www.motionshare.com

Zachs website is redferriswheel.com and these videos are 720p High definition .mov files – all available to download for free.

The videos are great for day to day use – where you want some color and a little movement happening in your backgrounds but don’t want to be distracting to the congregation.

Zach seems like a top bloke – more in his website.

As a result, there are people making video loops for this purpose. They tend to be in HD resolutions and an wmv format. It occurred to me that these may be useful for use in Church settings… and it seems many are!

Google search for something like ‘dreamscene video’  and you’ll find websites with these videos to download. Most of the time they are free and the license is quite open, and just limited to ‘non-commercial’

I’ll be adding some of these sites to the MotionShare.com resources page.

Holy

Here is a simple video I’ve made, it’s a variant of the original names of God video, but with just one word repeated many time, the word Holy.

The video will loop seamlessly. I’ll also add a PAL version as well as the Premier project shortly. It’s seen here, projected on to a church building!

You can download and use it for free! – feel free to leave a comment…

About these Videos:

There are points in worship, particularly  loud youth events, where the song is about Jesus and it would be great to overlay the word ‘Jesus’ over the top in time with the beat… These videos may well help you, they are quite simple, but they are here for you to download and use for free.  You can probably change the speed in your VJ software to match the beat of a kick drum for example. They are on a black background so you can luma-key the videos over something else!

These are designed to loop, so you can play then again and again and again…

These are in PAL resolution, and you are free to do what you like with them (within reason!) If you have any ideas for this kind of video then leave a message and hopefully we can make some more…

Example:

This is the Jesus spin/zoom video:

Downloads:

	‘Jesus’ text spin and zoom loop A short video that can be used for keying over other video. The letters J, e, s, u, s appear and spin out into the screen. You can probably change the speed in your VJ software to match the beat of a kick drum for example. 'Jesus' text flashing loop 1 (404) PAL MOV H.263
	‘Jesus’ text stepping loop A short video that can be used for keying over other video. The letters J, e, s, u, s step up the screen to form the whole word. You can probably change the speed in your VJ software to match the beat of a kick drum for example. 'Jesus' text flashing loop 2 (224) PAL MOV H.263
	‘Jesus’ text flashing loop 1 A short video that can be used for keying over other video. The letters J, e, s, u, s flash up one by one on a white background. You can probably change the speed in your VJ software to match the beat of a kick drum for example. 'Jesus' text stepping loop (161) PAL MOV H.263
	‘Jesus’ text flashing loop 2 A short video that can be used for keying over other video. The letters J, e, s, u, s flash up one by one on a white background. You can probably change the speed in your VJ software to match the beat of a kick drum for example. This is a slight variant on the first one, as the last flash has the text larger.

I wanted to make a moon rising in the sky type video -- not to be used on it’s own, but used with other videos when ‘VJing’. Feel free to download and use this where you like! The moon rises from the bottom left corner and moves across the screen to the top right corner.

The music is by Sigur Ros -- I should probably make a version with copyright free music though

Names of God Video

Names of God videos are quite popular and very useful for projecting on big screens or walls etc… I decided I’d spend some time making a few loops -- I’ll use them myself and I’ll also over them for free for others to download and use however they like…

Information:

This video fades and scrolls various names of God across the screen, and another version the grow in size as they fade in and out. The names are all in the same font, they are in various sizes and move in various ways -- left to right, right to left, up and down -- you get the idea! The video is 1 minute 23 seconds long, and is loopable -- as in the end frame matches the first frame, so you can play the video endlessly -- if you wanted to!

I’ll be using this video and videos like it to project on to walls, I suspect I’ll adapt them, so expect more to follow!

The sound track was something I picked up at http://binarybeats.com -- it may not work for you, but I’m sure you can change it!

Previews:

Larger Text Version, text moving sideways:

Lots of names of God moving across the screen -- Download options below…

Smaller Text Version, text moving sideways:

This is the same as the above video, but the names are about 50% small in size. Download options below…

Text moving forwards

Rather than the names moving side to side, they move forwards, or enlarge as they fade in and then fade out. Download options below…

Downloads:

You can download and use these videos for free in various formats -- you can also edit them as you wish:

M2V are MPEG 2, Blu-ray HDTV
M4V are H264 HDTV
WMV are Windows Media.

If you use the video then please leave a comment, if you have any ideas or suggestions then please leave a comment. If you adapte it, then please let me know as I’d like a copy
