you're not abnormal andyou're not in the minority. you are the majority! so really, using the word small church or smaller church is not really even fair, because you are the norm. and the reason i say thisis because when it comes to stage design, oftenwe get our inspiration from the big churches. and when we get our inspirationonly from big churches,


it usually means that we'realso getting our inspiration from the big budgets. at the very least, budgetsthat our bigger than ours. so let's dial that backfor a moment and talk about three ways tocreate great stage designs on a small budget. first things first, it'simportant to be clear about this one main thing,the most important part of your stage design is your lighting.


stage design is 75% lightingand as my friends over at the creative pastor have said. wood pallet walls like the onebehind me, they're gonna come and go, but the lights thatyou have on stage can be with you for decades and sowhen it comes to your stage budget, whatever amount that may be, prioritize the purchase oflights over everything else. and that's my first suggestion for you as church trying to designa great looking stage


forget the trendy stageitems, just use lighting. and to bring this example to life, take a look at this shot from my church. here we have shimmering ledstrips in the background, and it's kind of hard to see, not only are there ledstrips on stage here, but there's also a rainwall if you can believe it, and yet, despite those two crazy elements, the most dramatic partof this stage design


is the twin streams of light that are backlighting our worship leader and creating a dramatic silhouette. two simple backlightsoutshining led strips and a freaking rain wall. simple is good. of course, if you want tomove past stage designs that are only lighting, let's talk about two wildlyinexpensive materials


that you can use to create amazing and immersive experiences. firstly, coroplast is still the king of budget stage designs. i did an entire podcast, it's linked below with jonathan malm, he's the creator of the popular sitechurch stage design ideas and the number one materialthat he recommends churches use is coroplast.


it's inexpensive, it'sflexible, it's adaptable, you can shape it, you can light it, and it won't simplycreate just a single look. i did another podcast with a pastor of a church plant called creating beautiful stage designs on a church planter's budget and this church's stage design was done almost entirely in coroplast.


if you want to hearmore from that podcast, it's linked below also. finally, the third andfinal stage design idea on a budget uses pvc pipe. in this video you'll seeour church stage design uses led stripes. but you can create a virtually identical look using inexpensive pvc pipe. much like coroplast,pvc pipe is inexpensive


and a great receiver of light, meaning, you can color it however you want. linked below is an entire post on pvc pipe from my buddy jonathan malm again over at church stage design ideas if you want to get a fuller breakdown of how to use pvc pipe to build a stage design. the most important thing to remember here is that lighting is the mostimportant element by far


when it comes to your stage design. prioritize lighting,and then use adaptable and inexpensive materials like coroplast and pvc pipe to supplement your lighting. if you liked this video, make sure you hit the like button below and definitely subscribe tothe pro church tools channel, we post new videos likethis every week helping your church learn creativeskills and feel like a pro.
