by | AVL Projects, Lighting, Podcasts, Production

Many churches today have finally embraced live streaming their worship services to better connect with their congregations. But how many of us are still struggling with knowing how to best light the service for both live stream and in-person viewing? Ricky Perinchief and Michelle Makariak discuss how lighting for both is different and how to find a balance between the two. They’ll also share what the most important aspect of lighting for worship is before you purchase equipment and how to find the right equipment for any budget.
