# MotionBlue

> MotionBlue (motion.blue) turns church sermons and church moments into short, scripture-first vertical videos (30–60 seconds) for Instagram, Facebook, YouTube Shorts and TikTok. The pastor's words are never changed, every video is reviewed by a person, and nothing is posted until the church approves it.

## Key facts

- What we make: finished vertical videos with scripture on screen, imagery from the passage, captions, licensed background music and an ending with the church's name.
- Also works for: church events, gatherings, ministry overviews, church picnics — any clip, including phone video. No YouTube channel needed.
- Collaborative: we select the strongest moment by default, or the church gives start and end times.
- Free first video: delivered within 1 business day. No card, no account.

- No contracts. Cancel anytime. Churches own their videos.

## FAQ
### How much does it cost?
Your first video is free. After that, Starter is $79/month for 4 videos and Growth is $149/month for 8 videos, with the $50-off launch code you receive with your free video (list prices $129 and $199). No contracts, cancel anytime.

### Does this change what I said?
Never. We choose a moment and present it, in your words, in context.

### Is AI appropriate for this?
We use it as a tool, to help find moments, create imagery and time captions. A person reviews every video, and nothing is posted until you approve it.

### Won't it feel like marketing gimmicks?
That's what we avoid. The videos are calm and scripture-first, with no clickbait and no trends, and they put the sermon in front.

### Which Bible translation shows on screen?
The one your pastor preaches from, or [KJV/WEB] if you don't tell us.

### What imagery do you use?
Reverent, painterly scenes drawn from the passage: landscapes, light, the cross, scripture settings. We never depict Jesus or show invented people as real. If anything doesn't fit your church, tell us and we'll replace it.

### What does the free video cost?
Nothing. Send one sermon and we'll make one finished video. There's no card and no automatic subscription.

### Do I need an account?
Not to get your free video. When you subscribe, we create your church's page from your email. It keeps every video in one place, lets you upload or connect your sermons, and handles billing and cancellation.

### How do I get the launch price?
Request a free video. When we deliver it, we'll email you a code for $50 off. Use it within 7 days, and the $50 comes off every month for as long as you stay subscribed. The link in the email applies it automatically.

### How long does the launch offer last?
It's for churches that join during our launch. Once you're in, your price stays the same while you're subscribed.

### How fast is delivery?
Your free video arrives within 1 business day of receiving your sermon. Once you subscribe, new videos arrive within [X] business days of each sermon.

### We don't post our sermons on YouTube. Can we still use this?
Yes. Upload the video file, or share a Google Drive, Dropbox, Vimeo or Facebook link. MP4 or MOV, any size. Just the sermon is best, but a full service is fine; we'll find the message and leave out the worship songs.

### Is anything posted without my approval?
Never. Every video is sent to you for approval first. You can approve it, ask for changes or decline it. Nothing is posted until you say yes.

### Do you post the videos for us?
Only after you approve them. Once you approve a video, we post it to the channels you choose, or you can download it and post it yourself.

### What about worship music from our service?
We leave out worship songs and use licensed background music only, so your videos aren't flagged for copyright.

### Can I choose which part of the sermon is used?
Yes. It's a collaborative process. We select the strongest moment by default, or you can give us the start and end times you want. If you'd like a different moment after you see the video, tell us and we'll redo it.

### Who owns the videos?
You do. Post them anywhere.

### How is this different from hiring an editing service?
You get a finished video with scripture, imagery, music and captions, for about a third of the cheapest editing service and a sixth of most, with no annual contract and no setup fee.
