Capturing Christmas Stage Design

During all of our “Capturing Christmas” brainstorms, meetings, and dream-sessions there was always one word that kept coming up – warm. We wanted everything associated with “Capturing Christmas” to bring about the warm Christmas memories that you had as a kid and the nostalgia of Christmas we all remember. And, this warm nostalgic theme continued to be communicated through our stage design as well!

When creating a new stage design there are multiple things we consider during our brainstorm sessions. For our Christmas stage, specifically, we wanted to keep the same basic stage design we had and “Christmas-fy” it. We also needed something that would look good behind Ed on camera for campuses and TV.

O Come O Come Emmanuel – Drum Lighting

For our Christmas services, we preformed “O Come O Come Emanuel” from our Capturing Christmas Album. We wanted to give the song a fresh unique look so after playing around with a few ideas, we landed on the idea of multiple drum sets that could light up. To accomplish this, we created lights that could be mounted inside of each drum. This is a simple DIY project that created a unique look for the whole element.

To make these light fixtures we took a small piece of plywood and cut it into the shape of a 10” pentagon. We then drilled out 8 – 1”3/8 holes for the placement of the lamp sockets. We used pin type single circuit outdoor sockets. These sockets have pins that pierce the lamp cord when the cap is screwed down so there is no spicing or stripping of wire needed. We then inserted the lamp socket and daisy-chained the socket’s lamp cord. We gaffed the back of the connectors to stabilize them before installing the 100w soft white bulbs and the power connector on the end of the lamp cord.

Behind the Capturing Christmas Artwork

If you’ve heard our new album “Capturing Christmas” then you’ve also seen the beautiful artwork that goes along with it! All of the artwork on the inside and outside of the album was dreamed-up, designed, shot, and developed by our Fellowship Creative team. It mirrors the album’s theme of capturing the nostalgia of Christmas with lit mason jars, ornaments, twine, and even piles of snow! We had so much fun on this shoot and wanted to share the joy with some behind-the-scenes pictures, enjoy!
