I am the worship leader for my church and also create the slides that someone else runs during the service. For song slides, is there an easier way to indicate that I will repeat a slide multiple times, other putting that slide in there multiple times. Like if I am planning to do the bridge 4 times in a row, is my only option to do "Bridge, Bridge, Bridge, Bridge" in the verse order? Thanks!
- Hi Worship Coordinator, we do have a feature called Custom Slide Order in Proclaim that quickly lets you change the order of the song without actually changing how to the song appears in the database. Are you using that now? However if you use Custom Slide Order you'll need to have "Bridge" added 4 times in a row and that still creates 4 slides with the "bridge" in your presentation. Is your main concern with having the 4 "bridge" slides in a row or the method of adding the 4 "bridge slides"? The only other way I can think of is having 1 slide but adding a line that says 4x.
- Hi Worship Coordinator; You can use B, B, B, B for this, if that is what you're concerned about. Or, you could alter the bridge each time you do a song by adding (Repeat X times) as we used to do with overhead transparencies back in the day. Or . . . merely tell the operator to be on their toes as our worship leader sometimes does :-)
- What we do if we're going to be repeating a slide multiple times is that we create a slightly different slide for each time. For example, if we are repeating the bridge four times, I create Bridge 4, Bridge 3, Bridge 2, Bridge 1. The only difference between the four is that I put 4 asterisks right under the lyrics on Bridge 4, 3 asterisks on Bridge 3, etc. This helps our people know how many more times we are going to sing that bridge and it also helps the operator as there is a noticeable difference when the slides change.
