Help potential visitors to feel more comfortable visiting for the first time with a video that will show them exactly what they can expect during a Sunday morning service. This will make them feel more at ease to visit since they will now see exactly what will go on when they step through the doors for the first time.
The Vision - The goal is to provide Churches in America and all around the world with high quality video content as a way for God to use to speak to the hearts of people searching for a church. My aim is to attract the attention of people local to the community of a church and afford the church and its members the opportunity to present themselves and speak to the people in their community.
Most people are looking for a place for their family to grow in the Word of God. Churches need the exposure through video promotion as a necessary way to reach their community and targeted audience. Video is a powerful tool in letting those in the community know what the church is like and who the people are. With video being the leading promotional tool on the internet today high quality content helps viewers see the church in a respectable, serious and engaging way.
Strategy - Using high quality content to post on social media creating traffic to the Church website. At the same time creating a consistent flow of valued and educational content to use on the top social media platforms that will lead to an organic follower base. When you give 90% good free quality content eventually the 10% invitational and action required content will reap its cause.
Affordability - I seek to partner with Churches and Missionaries to reach their goals with quality videos/photos for social media and websites. II . understand Churches usually have a little to no budget for this type of thing so we do our best to work with Churches to help them in all circumstances. We provide high quality content and videos that can be watched over and over on many platforms with high quality to minimal cost. How we do this is by creating a package that is custom to their financial situations.

The story behind Ferris Films
By Shane Ferris (Founder of Ferris Films)
It was one week during Bible college when I took a class in graphic design. I started re-visiting the world of video creating. I visited my previous Churches website and noticed there were no videos and only a few low quality photos to help explain who they were and what they were about. At the time I was traveling every few months back to my previous Church to do outreach in the city where is was located. When I would go knocking on doors I soon realized that it was hard for people to go from talking to you at the door or at the grocery store to then showing up at Church for a service. This can be very intimidating for someone who is new to Church.
I realized I needed to have something to direct people to in order for them to see the Church and what it is all about and how it can be very beneficial to them. I wanted to have something more than just a website. In this day and age everybody is used to watching videos. They aren’t just watching any old cheap videos anymore either. People are regularly watching high quality content and when they don’t see what they expect they don’t give it the time of day.
The burden began after a few months of being frustrated with this problem for not only this Church, but so many Independent Gospel Preaching Churches all over America. I began to invest in video equipment and started using every bit of my free time to train myself to know and understand how video is created. I have been now doing this since 2017 and I am always working hard and striving to achieve excellence in my video skills and its impact on the world for Christ.
