I am the Creative Video Director at The Rock Church in San Diego, Ca. I am a motion graphic artist, videographer, director, and a photographer. I’m looking to learn from artists and share some things that I have discovered in my own journey.</description><title>Chris Loope - Blog</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @chrisloope)</generator><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>God In The Mirror - Series teaser / bumper</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/64433019" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;God In The Mirror - Series teaser / bumper&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/48436242371</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/48436242371</guid><pubDate>Sat, 20 Apr 2013 09:49:43 -0400</pubDate><category>davinciresolve</category><category>seriesbumper</category><category>madeinyourimage</category><category>colorgrade</category><category>typography</category><category>slowmotion</category></item><item><title>Check out my new film.

Such a great project to be involved with. The Rock Films crew came together and pulled this off so quickly but did such a great job. Would love feedback and help getting it out there.

The Rock Films team is passionate about  projects that deliver hope or challenge for any person/community willing to be a vessel of change in this world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Primary Crew:&lt;br/&gt;Christopher Francis: DP&lt;br/&gt;Nicole Franco: Producer&lt;br/&gt;David Schulz: Editor&lt;br/&gt;Chris Hylton: Cinema 4D artist&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wrote, directed, color graded, and did the after effects production for the project. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Freedom Project / Red Tape /&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This is a glimpse into the near future if every charity, social justice, church, and aid organization stepped out or gave up on caring for the world or community. Worse, this video is a depiction of humanity loosing it’s care for one another.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The freedom project is a small movement of commoners deciding to unite and engage the population with love and hope. Red tape represents; oppression, abuse, addiction, indifference, and loneliness. There is freedom from these things and we must choose it and then give it to others. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Process&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Filming&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br/&gt;We shot this video using only the Canon 5D mkii with various prime lenses. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Post&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The end was a lot of work for Chris Hylton (Cinema 4D) and myself (After Effects). Hylton made various sets and red tape animations in a sky atmosphere. Tape was certainly a difficult texture/shape to deal with.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I colored this project using Looks in After Effects. The trick was using the Lift/Gamma tool and fixing the levels using Curves. Looks is a pretty gimmicky and entry level coloring tool, but if you have a good eye and have a look that you want to achieve, I think it’s the quickest tool out there. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/20792527990</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/20792527990</guid><pubDate>Tue, 18 Dec 2012 10:47:00 -0500</pubDate><category>the freedom project</category><category>film</category><category>justice</category><category>rock church</category><category>grading</category><category>after effects</category><category>red tape</category><category>hope</category><category>freedom</category></item><item><title>I’m blown away that the people at the Rock show up every...</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/55658330" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;I’m blown away that the people at the Rock show up every day of the week to love, care, and bless the poor. I’m proud to tell this story and to celebrate what is happening here in San Diego. Sure this is a corporate piece but it’s a great message that has unified 12-15k southern californians to engage their neighbors with the love of Jesus Christ. Are there great stories you could share about your community?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/38229014313</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/38229014313</guid><pubDate>Tue, 18 Dec 2012 10:40:50 -0500</pubDate><category>pervasive hope</category><category>video</category><category>poor</category><category>justice</category><category>love</category><category>charity</category><category>church</category></item><item><title>I’m proud of this piece.

No organization is better equipped to care for the ‘broken’ than the local church. We have a body of people that love their neighbors and their city, we have a leader who communicates the gospel well, a staff that loves God and wants to inspire anyone that experiences the Rock, and a vision that unites us all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Watch this video, share your vision for the future, tell us how are you going to impact the world and create a better future for the broken.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/16065838525</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/16065838525</guid><pubDate>Wed, 11 Apr 2012 20:46:38 -0400</pubDate><category>vision</category><category>love</category><category>hope</category><category>serving</category><category>church</category><category>broken</category><category>pain</category></item><item><title>You ready to bring love to anyone who suffers?</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/36992612" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;You ready to bring love to anyone who suffers?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/17787581623</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/17787581623</guid><pubDate>Fri, 17 Feb 2012 17:58:00 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Short ident I made for Christmas - Rock News</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/33046356" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Short ident I made for Christmas - Rock News&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/13649887385</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/13649887385</guid><pubDate>Fri, 02 Dec 2011 17:41:08 -0500</pubDate><category>animation</category><category>after effects</category><category>rock church</category></item><item><title>This little shoot made me miss taking pictures.</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt7wt10KrS1qck0rto1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt7wt10KrS1qck0rto2_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;This little shoot made me miss taking pictures.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/11573360399</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/11573360399</guid><pubDate>Mon, 17 Oct 2011 12:07:48 -0400</pubDate><category>photography</category></item><item><title>Check out my latest promo animation I did for the Rock.</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/30523038" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Check out my latest promo animation I did for the Rock.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/11435386237</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/11435386237</guid><pubDate>Fri, 14 Oct 2011 10:03:09 -0400</pubDate><category>the rock</category><category>rock church</category><category>miles mcpherson</category><category>evolution</category><category>creation</category><category>animation</category></item><item><title>"Never tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon."</title><description>“Never tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.christopherloope.com" target="_blank"&gt;www.christopherloope.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/11202391667</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/11202391667</guid><pubDate>Sat, 08 Oct 2011 19:40:10 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>“Encounter God” - Outro #1</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/29856779" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Encounter God” - Outro #1&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/10858992428</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/10858992428</guid><pubDate>Fri, 30 Sep 2011 16:54:47 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>This is a fun little ident I made for Rock News this week.</title><description>&lt;iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/29841044" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is a fun little ident I made for Rock News this week.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/10849780106</link><guid>http://chrisloope.tumblr.com/post/10849780106</guid><pubDate>Fri, 30 Sep 2011 11:57:00 -0400</pubDate><category>rock news</category><category>miles mcpherson</category><category>animation</category></item><item><title>We are moving into week #2 of the Wired For Love series.
