Cumberland Church (Sanctuary) - Franklin, TN

Cumberland Church, based in Franklin TN approached Elite about how to make their services technically more attractive. Cumberland is a North Point Strategic Partner, which means they are a video based church featuring a pre-recorded messages by Andy Stanley. They have a live worship band and lead pastor, but the teaching is presented via video. They had been playing a message series DVD provided by the main campus on a single center screen. After careful consideration, a three screen system was designed. During worship, the two side screens are used for lyrics and the center screen is lowered halfway and displays graphic content. During the preaching, the left and right screens would be an IMAG feed while the center would be a High Definition feed showing Pastor Andy Stanley standing on stage, life size. “After about 5 minutes, I forgot I was watching a video. I really felt like Pastor Andy was actually standing there on the stage.”
