The Trinity Episcopal Church (on the green in New Haven), is renowned for their choirs. Each choir sings most Sundays of the academic year at one of the morning services and in the wider community. The project goal was to create a comprehensive video of these two choirs to increase their scope of recruitment.
We began the project in the Fall of ‘07 videoing the holiday concerts, then the Spring concerts of ‘08. Spending time with these incredibly talented young boys and girls was an experience we will never forget. Then came interviewing selected choir members and their parents. Wow, what a rush to hear them talk about their experiences and personal growth. The finale to the project was videoing Summer choir camp. Ahhh, to be young again. (When I sing, people look out the windows to see where all the frogs are).
During the year, Director of Music, (the very talented) Walden Moore, worked with us in making rough edits. In the Fall of ‘08 the final DVD video was complete and sent off for duplication. The project came in under budget and on time. Why? Because Walden was willing to work with us, in our studio, making the edits in real-time.
