Scope Of Work
Otterbein Church located in Waynesboro, PA expressed the need for excellence in video and lighting production to Spire during early design meetings. With plans to expand into a new facility in the near future, Otterbein Church wanted to begin exploring/implementing these new technology systems in their current sanctuary. A clean and unobtrusive, yet modern design for video and lighting was required to capture weekly services and special events.
Spire designed and installed a lighting system comprised of three main systems: backlighting, frontlighting, and front texture. The backlighting used Rosco Miro Cube 4C fixtures which were track mounted to ensure a clean look. Front lighting includedETC Source Fours. The frontlight system is comprised of single point for each stage area on a 45 degree pitch. The pulpit area uses a two-point frontlight method to minimize any shadows during the sermon segments of the services. Front texture was used to create interest on the stage and to create a visual back drop when captured on video.
The video system was designed to be full HD and digital end to end. To achieve this, Spire used 2 PTZ cameras, 1 manned camera and a projector by Panasonic, aBlackmagic Design UltraStudio 4k to output ProPresenter as an HD-SDI key/fill and some Blackmagic Design converter boxes as well as a Sync Generator using Tri-Level Sync to lock everything together. All video signals are in HD-SDI format to aRoland V800HD switcher which capably handles the live switching as well as the keyed lyrics using the down-stream keyer (DSK). The DSK allows us to get crisp text over the video feed.
