My Christmas Gift To You

Is your church in need of a nice warm “welcome video”? Are you looking for a creative way to say Merry Christmas?

Christmas Sunday is upon us and as my Christmas gift to you, I want to give you two After Effects files that I made for our church:

Welcome Video with Snow from Jon Manna on Vimeo.

I used this video during our Family Christmas Musical as people were walking in. We played music through the house as well. Please note that you need to loop the video in order for it to play seamlessly. We did this in our presentation software (i.e Propresenter, mediashout, SongShowPlus).

Merry Christmas Video with Snow from Jon Manna on Vimeo.

[UPDATED: *actual loop starts at 56 second mark. please ignore the first 56 seconds]

At the end of our Family Christmas Musical we showed this video as the cast came up on stage to take a bow. Again, please note that you need to loop the video if you want to let it run while everyone clears out of the auditorium.

My Christmas Gift to You

Download the Welcome with Snow AE file and the Merry Christmas with Snow AE file as my christmas gift to you!

[In order for you to use these AE files you will need two additional plugins from Red Giant Software called Trapcode Particular 2.1, and Trapcode Shine 1.6]

I’d love to see how you use these. So please post links in the comments. Enjoy!
