Elevate TV #01: Chair



What gets you off your seat? Join us. Elevate.
For Elevate's first video, we were inspired by the metaphor of a chair. What if we turned this everyday object we sit on into something more: a platform for creativity and expression?

Motivated by the idea, we went in search of a location. We scooted off to abandoned rooms that looked like they'd been bombed; to an idyllic landscape on top of a mountain, but we found that we needed that archetypal room, a white cube, in order for it to work. Then, we searched department stores and offices for a simple chair, to represent all other chairs that have ever been.

To rescue us from room gloom slash chair despair, we finally found the perfect space through a totally serendipitous phone call with our friends, creative agency PlasticSoldierFactory, who invited us to take over their warehouse in the East for a day.

Amazing how God provides resources when you just step off the edge -- with storyboard and camera in hand, and great company around.

Look out for more Elevate adventures to come!

28 Aug 09 - East of Eden


Elevate is a brand new platform for everyone with a passion for youth, ideas and fellowship to gather without any walls. There will be food, great worship and an inspiring message!

Our theme this round, East of Eden speaks about how many of us as young people have drifted away from God's original intention for our lives, just like how the Isrealites ended up in captivity in Egypt. We need to take a stand and find our promised land in God's destiny once again!
