Tools I’m using in 2019

May 11, 2019 By Joel Wilson

Here are a few tools I’m using. Domain names: Hover Web hosting: Siteground File Renaming Utility: NameChangerIf you work with processing more than a handful of files, this utility is awesome at one simple task. It makes renaming files super easy. It’s so simple I even use it when I only have a handful of files! […]

Why Video?

May 11, 2019 By Joel Wilson

This is a collection of a few stats and quotes that I came across a while back and originally had on another page. It struck me as an important context to understand since so much of my work has been focused on helping folks use video content in their business. More important than the format […]

The problem with ideas

May 10, 2019 By Joel Wilson

Confession: I’m often an “idea guy.” So let’s start with that. I love discussing ideas, thinking about ideas, possibilities, how things could be done in a different way. That’s a gift. It’s also a problem. There’s a tension between having ideas and taking action on ideas. Ideas on their own could be accurate or completely […]

Story formula that avoids getting in a rut

May 10, 2019 By Joel Wilson

Alex Blumberg has a course on how to use storytelling concepts for making a podcast. My favorite part was the story formula: I’m working on a story about x . It’s interesting because of y . Try it out. A few other ideas that I found helpful: Break it up into smaller stories. Stories are […]

An invitation to create

May 4, 2019 By Joel Wilson

It doesn’t have to be hard to invite others to co-create – if you intentionally set the stage for them to be brought in. As an example, here is a simple board that was set up at the Springfield Artsfest 2019. Ingredients: An 4′ x 8′ sheet of plywood set up with supports and painted […]

The sharp edges of the project

November 15, 2018 By Joel Wilson

The sharp edges of the project are a place of friction, the place where it’s easy to get frustrated, the place where someone acts in a way that is illogical or slightly unreasonable. It’s the offhand remark that makes someone upset. It’s the attitude of “my way or the highway.” It’s the place where passion […]

Beautifully Broken

November 13, 2018 By Joel Wilson

I recently setup and ran media for a showing of a new film, Beautifully Broken. The film is based on real people and tells the story of an American family and two families from Rwanda. The showing was at Evangel University and it was a privilege to have director Eric Welch there as well. A […]

Live Event Production Stage Ideas

June 10, 2018 By Joel Wilson

I’ve been looking at resources for live event production from design ideas, to how to approach projects, to new technologies. These are a few of the links that I found interesting. TED has published their helpful guidelines for an event such as a TEDx talk. Jonathan Malm runs a site that focuses on church stage […]

Reisinger’s Violin

April 9, 2018 By Joel Wilson

W R Reisinger made violins in the early decades of the 1900’s. The one that I have was made in 1938. It’s a great sounding and beautiful instrument. I’m hoping to find out more about Reisinger’s life, especially in regards to his craft as a violin maker. There is very little known, except that I’ve […]
