Hi, I’m Michael Slater and I’ve made this tutorial to help you bring life to your lyrics through this hand-drawn style, inspired by Hillsong Young & Free. I hope this tutorial and the resource attached will really be a great help for you! I love the online community of church media guys and want to give back to that community by providing you with this! All the best.

Very nice! Love the simplicity.
This is amazing! I think I’m gonna try it!
Is anyone producing YF style backgrounds yet?
Awesome thank you. I will definitely try it out!
I'm adding his tutorial to my ProPresenter 5 tutorial set. Great work.
Can i see your sample sir. Thank You.
Okay, so apparently, something about the playlist doesn't want me to, so now I have a "Great Videos from others" playlist that will include this one.
so I did this with one of our songs, but in pro presenter because its an image not actual editable text the worship team couldn't see it on the Stage display monitor so we havn't used it yet. Suggestions?
Kaz, enter the text lyrics as normal and make them either transparent or move the text box off screen. They will still display to the stage display but not to screen 🙂
Where can i get those motion backgrounds you are using?
Check the youtube comments for this video, there are some ideas listed there.
Hi there, we did something very similar in our church, we made almost 40 songs in the handdrwan style.
How we do it: I give the lyrics to some talented people, and they write every sentence on one page, afterwards I scan all pages of one song into one .pdf . I have created a Gimp-script, that converts this 1 pdf to multiple files (jpg + 1048*768), and then turns it to white on black. Then we import it in Songbeamer/ ProPresenter
if you are interested in the script or more information, feel free to ask me 🙂
Hi Raphael, you reckon it would be possible to have the script. My pastor asked me to create something in the style and it would be great to not re-invent the wheel. :). Thanks heaps. Contact me personally on jonathan@hectorgraphics.ch
Great idea! Could you send on the script for Gimp? I’d like to try that out? Still learning from the ground up on PS and Gimp,
Actually got the Y&F hand drawn lyrics available for download. Scroll to the bottom of the page and they're all yours. http://hillsong.com/youngandfree
Dude so awesome!! thanks for taking the time to do that!!
This is awesome!! I have a question. We work with Stage Display and how do you guys work with the hand drawn lyrics and help the lead vocal?
John, enter the text lyrics as normal and make them either transparent or move the text box off screen. They will still display to the stage display but not to screen ?
where can i find the pdf of the boxes to hand write on?
It is included in the download link above.
I attempted to download the PDF file and it would not download. Do you have any other suggestions or ways that I could get ahold of that PDF or even create my own?

Im having trouble putting motion background behind the text in propresenter. It is recognizing it as a jpeg, and hence i cant put motion behind it.
Looks like the resource link is broken now… I get an error when clicking on it:

Wrong file extension maybe?
