HOW ABOUT FREE LUNCH AND LEARNING ABOUT CRITICAL CONCEPTS CENTRAL TO YOUR ROLE AS A TECHNICAL ARTIST! JOIN OUR FILO PARTNERS FOR TOPIC-SPECIFIC SESSIONS LED BY SOME OF THE INDUSTRY’S MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE VETERANS. WE’LL TAKE AN IN-DEPTH LOOK AT DIFFERENT DISCIPLINES THAT WILL LEAVE YOU WITH ENHANCED KNOWLEDGE, PRACTICAL TAKEAWAYS, AND A FULL STOMACH!
We’ve all chased the holy grail of “just add more speakers” only to end up with a louder version of the same muddy mess because your sanctuary’s acoustics don’t care how high end those new boxes are. In this Lunch & Learn, we’ll geek out on why your room is the real boss by bringing in the pros for a live Q&A panel featuring experts from d&b audiotechnik, a veteran acoustician, and a lead designer of custom acoustic installations to prove it. Join us and find out why getting a proper acoustical analysis should come before you ever crack open that shiny new d&b catalog.
Most worship broadcasts show people what’s happening. The best ones make them feel like they’re actually there. The difference isn’t budget, it’s intention. In this session, Chad Vegas breaks down what it takes to build a cinematic worship broadcast: how a service gets called, camera techniques that capture what’s really happening, and how to build a production culture that serves your congregation and your online audience. You’ll walk away with real, practical techniques you can put into action this Sunday.
This session explores how churches can build a simple, easy to use production ecosystem that helps production crews work together more effectively on Sundays. Using tools like Riedel RiCapture, Bolero, Artist, Hi, and MediorNet, we will look at how communication, signal transport, and content capture can come together into one connected workflow that simplifies Sunday production.
Packed with practical, “try this” ideas, this session gives attendees actionable strategies they can implement immediately in their own teams and leadership contexts. Walk away with creative solutions you can use right away to inspire collaboration, innovation, and impact.
Volunteers are the backbone of every ministry — especially in tech, where skill, creativity, and reliability actually matter. Recruiting is hard, training takes time, and losing great people is exhausting. This session cuts through the fluff and shows you how to build a culture that keeps volunteers engaged for the long haul. You’ll walk away with practical leadership shifts that reduce burnout, strengthen your team, and make serving something people want to keep doing. If you lead a church tech team, this is about building people — not just filling positions.
Join acclaimed live sound engineer Jeff Sandstrom (Chris Tomlin, Lauren Daigle, Grace Church, MxU) and Waves Live Specialist Jeremiah Clever, for an in-depth masterclass highlighting audio processing tools from Waves. Learn to use plugins to tackle EQ, dynamics, harmonic enhancement and coloration, and corrective processing like pitch correction. You’ll also hear from Jeff on workflows, best practices, and setting your audio teams up for success. Learn how these tools can help harness your worship team’s performance and create engaging worship that sounds great!
This season, we’ll send short, soul-filling encouragements to help you pause, breathe, and refocus on the One this is all about. You’re doing holy work, but you’re not meant to do it on empty. Let this be your reminder to slow down and spend a few quiet moments with Jesus. You need it—and you deserve it.
