ScreenVue- Movie Illustration Ideas
There have been times when I wanted to illustrate a point in a Bible study or small group with a film clip. I have used short films, which are great, or clips from films that I had seen. However there are a lot of scenes from films that could be used from films that I haven’t seen.
The other day I discovered a great solution to this problem, ScreenVue. They are an online database where you can search for illustrations and scenes based on a keyword. You can also download some of the clips. There is a fee for the service, however it includes the license to show the clips in public showings.

Creative Fuel
Over the last few weeks I have been involved with several big projects that have given me some creative fuel. I was able to work on the production of a 35mm film, helped with a film festival and attended a Creativity Summit.
At the Creativity Summit, we talked about how everyone was born with a creative instinct. God is the ultimate “creative”. Genesis 1 says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (NIV). The word “created” is used 10 times just in Genesis (NIV). However there are many more words and a reference used to express how creative God is. He has created us, so I believe God desires us to be “creative”.
There is an interesting short film that was produced in 1970 by Saul Bass for Kaiser Aluminum. It is called Why Man Creates. Saul Bass is the artistic director behind the classic title sequences for the James Bond films. In this very creative 25 minute short film Saul gives compelling information about the creative process of man over the years. The film is old, but still relevant to today.

“Most”- A Movie That Parallels The Easter Story
I had an opportunity to preview “Most“. This powerful movie, released in 2003, is a great tool to use for your Easter outreach. Here is an excerpt from the website.
“Between now and forever lies…the bridge. A powerful and moving film about a man who learns the true meaning of sacrifice. “MOST” is the story of an ordinary man forced to make an extraordinary decision. Shot entirely on location in the Czech Republic and Poland, “MOST” is a beautiful yet edgy film that draws you in and grabs your heart. In Czech “MOST” means, bridge. In this film, “MOST”, simply put, is the bridge between now and forever…lives forever changed.” Click here for more information.
