In my role as service programming director at NewPointe, I'm basically responsible for what happens in the big room on Sundays: everything from music to graphics...all creative elements. There's a lot of prayer and planning that goes into each service.
Prior to each service, we publish what's known as the "tech notes." Every volunteer in the SP department has online access to the tech notes. Hard copies are also printed and distributed to musicians, audio personnel, control room volunteers, basically anyone involved in making the Sunday services happen.
In case you're interested in seeing what typical tech notes look like, clicking on the picture above will give you a sneak preview of this Sunday's plan.
As you can see, things are planned very precisely (down to the minute) on Sundays (yes, I know, we don't always end right on time). This version is also the "without notes" version. The copies staff and volunteers receive have many more details such as rehearsal times, lyrics, and notes.
A producer tracks the elements live online to how we're doing time-wise. We use an online service called Planning Center to help us plan, schedule volunteers, track the service live, and much more.
Planning Center rocks. And so the SP volunteers!
