From day one we’ve wanted our Buzz Conference to be as open-source as possible. We’re asking the churches who are attending our theater church forum on May 4 to bring some of their best practices for a little show-and-tell.

I think our Buzz Film Festival is a great open source event. I would guess that half the video ideas we’ve had over the years were generated by something that someone else did. We took the idea, tweaked it, and did it NCC style. I think the Film Festival is a great opportunity to get some great ideas.

We’re now accepting video entries for the Buzz Film Festival. You don’t have to be Stephen Spielberg. We’ll take up to three entries per church. Send DVDs to:

National Community Church
Attn: Buzz Coordinator
205 F Street, NE
Washington, DC 20002

FYI. We’re giving two complimentary movie tickets to everybody who enters a video.
