Tech is not
the support.
Tech is the room.

A song reaches the back row because someone pushed a fader. A verse lands because someone clicked a slide. A first-time guest sees Jesus on a Tuesday because someone cut a sermon clip on Monday night.

You are not running a service. You are clearing a path for someone to meet Jesus. The cable, the console, the camera — every one is priestly work. We don't think about you when it's right. That's the point. You are the room before the room arrives.

If God can build a tabernacle through a craftsman named Bezalel filled with the Spirit (Exodus 31), He can build Sunday through you. Welcome to the team.

02 · The Six Roles

Six seats.
One room.

Pick the seat where God has wired you to serve. We'll help you find it.

01

Lighting

Paint the room with light. Set the mood before a word is sung.

02

Video

Camera ops & live switching. The eyes of the room — online and in-house.

03

Slides

Lyrics, scripture, calls to action. Every cue lands the moment.

04

Photography

Steward of memory. Document the move of God on a Sunday.

05

Audio

Front of house & monitors. Where worship lives or dies.

06

Post Production

Edits, clips, reels. What the next 1,000 people see of Hue on a Tuesday.

Six rolesHue.Church
Role · 01Lighting04
Role 01 · Lighting

You paint the room
before a word is sung.

A guest decides if they trust the room in the first ten seconds. Color, contrast, focus — all of it shapes the air before the band even plays.

What you'll do

Program and run lighting cues for worship, message, and response. Hold scenes through the sermon. Paint the altar at the moment of response.

What a Sunday looks like

Arrive by call time. Walk the room. Sync cues with the worship set. Run the service. Tear down clean — every fixture, every cable, exactly where it lives.

You'd be a good fit if

You notice rooms. You like quiet, high-stakes execution. You can sit still and stay attentive through a full service.

Stack

Console: [TBD] · Fixtures: front wash, key, color back · Software: [TBD]. We'll train you. No prior experience required.

01 · LightingHue.Church
Role · 02Video05
Role 02 · Video

You are the eyes
of the room.

Every Sunday is streamed. The frame you choose, the cut you call — that's what hundreds see at home, on YouTube, and on a phone in another country.

What you'll do

Camera operation or live switching. Frame the band, follow the preacher, cover the response. Cut the broadcast in real time.

What a Sunday looks like

Pre-service: white balance and focus. Service: hands on the camera or the switcher, ears on the mix. Post: confirm the recording, log notes.

You'd be a good fit if

You think in frames. You stay calm when the unexpected happens. You can take a cue and execute without ego.

Stack

Cameras: [TBD] · Switcher: [TBD] · Stream: YouTube Live. Comfortable to learn — we train every operator from zero.

02 · VideoHue.Church
Role · 03Slides06
Role 03 · Slides

Every slide is a hand
reaching out to the room.

A late lyric is a lost worshipper. An early scripture is a confused guest. You set the pace at which a room hears God.

What you'll do

Run ProPresenter for worship lyrics, sermon slides, scripture, lower thirds, and calls to action. Build slides ahead of Sunday from the message outline.

What a Sunday looks like

Pre-service: load the set, verify scripture references, run a sound check pass. Service: listen ahead, click on the breath, never on the beat.

You'd be a good fit if

You're musically aware. You read ahead. You catch typos. You like making something invisible work perfectly.

Stack

Software: ProPresenter 7 · Mac · Planning Center for the set list. Easiest role to start in. Sundays only.

03 · SlidesHue.Church
Role · 04Photography07
Role 04 · Photography

Steward
of memory.

We don't document an event. We show a Bay Area room that Jesus is being met.

What you'll do

Photograph Sundays, baptisms, HUE Groups, events. Catch worship, hands raised, the response, the kids, the strangers turning into friends.

What a Sunday looks like

Arrive before doors open. Capture pre-service candids, worship, the message, the response. Hand off edits by Wednesday for socials.

You'd be a good fit if

You see what others miss. You move quietly. You can shoot fast and edit faster. You bring your own camera, or you're ready to learn ours.

Stack

Body: [TBD or your own] · Editing: Lightroom · Delivery: Drive + Instagram. Bring a story instinct, we'll train the rest.

04 · PhotographyHue.Church
Role · 05Audio08
Role 05 · Audio

Worship lives or dies
at your faders.

Audio is the most consequential seat in the room. Mix the band like you're the twelfth member. Mix the message like a friend is listening on AirPods.

What you'll do

Run front of house (FOH) or monitors. Mic check, line check, ringing rooms, building mixes from scratch each week.

What a Sunday looks like

Earliest call time of the team. Stage patch, line check with the band, full rehearsal, then doors. Stay tuned and unflappable through the service.

You'd be a good fit if

You can hear what's wrong. You stay steady under pressure. You're willing to apprentice for months before you ever solo-engineer a Sunday.

Stack

Console: [TBD] · Stage I/O · In-ear monitors. This is the longest training pathway on the team — and the most needed.

Role · 06Post Production09
Role 06 · Post Production

What the next 1,000 people
see of Hue on a Tuesday.

Sunday ends. The work doesn't. Sermon clips, reels, recap videos, baptism stories — your edits are how the gospel keeps going through the week.

What you'll do

Cut sermon highlights, Instagram reels, YouTube uploads, baptism testimony videos, event recaps. Work from a brief, deliver to the team.

What a week looks like

Async. You don't need to be at every Sunday. Pull footage Monday, deliver edits by Friday. We respect your time.

You'd be a good fit if

You already cut video for fun. You have a sense of pace, music, and story. You meet deadlines.

Stack

Software: Premiere / DaVinci Resolve / CapCut — bring what you know · Hardware: your own machine to start. Async-friendly.

03 · Expectations

How we show up,
every time we serve.

01

Show up to team gatherings.

We gather every other week. These build unity, sharpen us, and keep us aligned. Make them a priority — not a last-minute calendar item.

02

Be prepared.

Know the order of service before you walk in. Read the brief. Review the set. Skill is a stewardship — practice happens on your own time.

03

Communicate.

Tell your lead about scheduling conflicts the moment you know. Silence costs the people serving with you.

04

Be early.

Arriving early is a courtesy to the team and a gift to the room before the room arrives.

05

Steward the gear.

Treat every cable, fixture, and machine like it belongs to God — because it does. Coil it right. Put it back.

06

Stay teachable.

Fools think they're right. We seek feedback. We grow by being correctable.

04 · The Tryout

Four steps
from interest to seat.

No pressure. No commitment until both sides know it's a fit.

01

Submit the interest form.

hue.church/serve/tech. Two minutes. Tell us your top 3 roles and your availability.

02

A short conversation.

Pastor. Immanuel will reach out within 48 hours. We talk about your story, your gifts, and the role that fits.

03

Shadow a live Sunday.

Show up early. Sit beside the operator in your chosen seat. Watch the full service from the inside. No buttons to push yet — just see the work.

04

Placement & apprenticeship.

If we're both in, you're handed off to your track lead. You'll apprentice for a season before you solo-run a Sunday.

TryoutHue.Church
Hue Tech Culture GuideHeaven Upon Earth12
05 · Pathway

There is a path
under your feet.

Nobody starts as the lead. Everybody can grow into one.

01

Shadow

Sit beside the operator. Learn the seat by seeing it run.

02

Apprentice

Run pieces of a Sunday under direct coaching. Build the reps.

03

Operator

Solo-run your seat for a full service. You own it.

04

Coach

Train the next person into the seat. Multiply yourself.

A coach is not a senior operator with a title. A coach is an operator who can reproduce what they do in someone else. That's the only definition of leadership we hold here.

Hue Tech Culture GuideHeaven Upon Earth13
06 · Covenant

A mutual commitment
between you and Hue.Church.

Hue's commitment to you

Prepare

You'll shadow and apprentice alongside experienced operators before you solo a service.

Equip

A track lead who will pray for you, train you, and check in on you.

Inspire

Team hangouts, training nights, and access to conferences worth attending.

Early Access

You'll see what's coming before the rest of the room does.

Your commitment as a teammate

Grow

Own your walk with Jesus. Spiritual practices come before technical skill.

Connect

Be in the room on Sundays you're not serving. Be in a HUE Group.

Serve

Show up to your scheduled Sundays. Communicate the moment you can't.

HUE

Bring Heaven Upon Earth. Leverage your skill, time, and resources for the gospel.
