I’ve been in a series talking about our Christmas production this year. You can read the first two here and here. Today I want to talk about the most complicated 5 seconds of the show. The script called for the people of U (the village the show was set in) to gather in the town [...]

Coast Hills Christmas Production Pt. 2

As promised, here are some more shots from the Christmas Production. If you missed the earlier ones, you can find them here. One of the things we tried to do was create depth on the stage using basically flat objects. Her “bed” for example, is two pieces of 1/4″ luan with simple brace stands. The [...]

Coast Hills Christmas Production

Coast Hills has a rich tradition of putting together a great Christmas concert. There is typically a theme, top musicians are brought in, and a wonderful concert ensues. This year, we decided to do something different. We felt God was calling us to tell a compelling story that clearly conveyed the Gospel. After much brainstorming, [...]

Last week we kicked off a new series at Coast Hills. The title is Follow: Jesus on Discipleship. We kicked around a lot of ideas for the set design, and here is where we landed. We intentionally went for a simpler look because the theme of the series is about getting back to basics and [...]

You probably know by now that when it comes to moving stuff, I like wheels. When some of our long lost ancestors invented the wheel, they hit on something big. Yet for some reason, we still insist on carrying stuff. Well not me. If I can put wheels on it, I do. Even on stuff [...]

The Porch

Those of you that follow me on Twitter probably remember that a few weeks ago someone on the creative team had the idea that we should have a porch in church for one weekend. It actually makes more sense than it sounds at first; our theme for the weekend was The Front Porch: Practicing Hospitality. [...]

More Progress For New Worship Space

It’s been a long week of construction. Every time I have an occasion to spend a week with a toolbelt on, I’m reminded of two things: First, I really enjoy building things; and second, I’m really out of shape. Back when I was doing construction full-time a few years ago, I felt fine after 10 [...]

Today was the first day of construction in our new worship space. We’re not actually building a worship space; however, we do have a few things we need to build. This week, the goal is to have the band platforms, drum cage and tech “booth” (it’s really a counter) built. And I don’t think we [...]
