WHAT IS THE TECHNOLOGY TEAM?
This group of people, all ages and backgrounds, are passionate about serving the Lord from the shadows of the stage. While the worship teams and choir may be up front, they need savvy folks to support them. All experience levels are welcome! If you don't have experience but have the desire to be a volunteer and to learn, we will teach you.

HOW TO SERVE
Volunteers on the technology team serve on Sunday mornings for both the Blended and the Modern worship services. A typical Sunday morning includes arriving at 7:30 a.m. and leaving around noon or 12:30 p.m. The work varies based on the position a volunteer fills any given Sunday. We are seeking to build a rotating team so folks would ideally serve just a couple times per month.

SKILL LEVELS
Some of the opportunities on the technology team will require intermediate and advanced skills, while others may require no experience and are trainable. The tech team includes:
• Live sound (intermediate): If you can identify various instruments when music is playing without confusion, this is a position for you. This is a high-commitment post ... if you are scheduled to volunteer, we'll definitely need you there.
• Computer graphics (beginner to intermediate): Folks with good experience using a computer may fill this post. You will need to have an eye for what things will look like in videos. Understand the mood or tone of a video. Graphic design experience is a plus but not essential.
• Studio sound/livestreaming (intermediate to advanced): In this role you must have computer skills, but especially an ear for all sounds. You will check for quality and be using the tablets or any cameras during live services.
• Video (intermediate to advanced): This is the biggest need we have. We're looking for folks who have computer skills who have an eye for what looks good. This is the most-committed opportunity on the technology team. Activities range from recording the live service to helping create other digital videos as needed. You will also copy videos to DVDs for our shut-ins ministry.
