http://stephenlechner.com Just another WordPress weblog Tue, 04 May 2010 21:18:26 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Most of you probably think I get paid to sit around and think of stage designs all day since that is all I ever seem to post anymore. My official job title is "Creative Arts Director" which means I'm involved in a lot of things but I also get to ... http://stephenlechner.com/2010/05/04/viva-voce/ We're tackling the subject of purity at In Focus Church this month and the series title is, "Battlefield: The Battle for Purity in a Sex-Crazed World." I wanted to stay away from the traditional camo/army/military look that you automatically associate with the word, "battlefield." The fight for purity is every ... http://stephenlechner.com/2010/02/08/stage-design-battlefield/ [vimeo width="440" height="248"]http://vimeo.com/9099959[/vimeo] This was our first "action" trailer and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. I had one day to shoot and one day to edit. Talk about crunch! We even built our own steadicam which was pretty fun. Big thanks to Mark Pittman and Hamilton for helping ... http://stephenlechner.com/2010/02/01/battlefield-trailer/ Six months. How life can change so quick in half a year. People come and go. Circumstances cause you to grow. Vision is cast, lost, and recaptured again. This is life. If you ask me where I've been, I will tell you that I've been here all along and nothing has really ... http://stephenlechner.com/2009/11/28/6/ This Coke Zero song is amazing. I love it.

For the squares, we just used spray painted foam board and mounted it on conduit. Add some truss, new lights, and bake for 30 minutes. Let cool ... http://stephenlechner.com/2009/05/18/stage-design-grey-matter/ I'm not going to lie, this is one dude who loves him some Coke. I would say it has become an addiction with consuming at least two per day. That's a good day. I know, it's not healthy and I don't think I realized how much sugar I was consuming ... http://stephenlechner.com/2009/05/05/suhweeet/ I believe the title of this post is the motto of my hosting company. After fighting with them for 9 days, I'm finally back up. Though this phrase is a great exaggeration about my experience, I figured I had to grab your attention somehow (though, I did spend a good 7 ... http://stephenlechner.com/2009/05/01/gives-you-hell/ I'd like to say that I'm a guy that doesn't embarrass easily. I can let things slide and not really affect me. But I mean, who hasn't been in situations where they were really embarrassed? I can testify to many awkward and red-faced moments. Sometimes, I find myself thinking back ... http://stephenlechner.com/2009/03/24/nobody-remembers/ Yesterday, our staff decided to let out our competitive side and host an office olympics. The events included, "Power Chair Obstacle," "Flonkerton" and "Chair Race." It was hilarious and I'm glad to be on a team that knows how to have fun! Enjoy the video. We rock. :) Stephen http://stephenlechner.com/2009/03/11/office-olympics/
