A beautiful memory for later.
Already since 2009 it is a cherished tradition: the annual "confirmation shooting" in the Lutheran. Parish Wetter (Ruhr).
On Tuesday after the presentation churce service - and 12 days before the actual confirmation church service -
the confirmands get dressed up to get a lasting memory of this time.

The challenge
Well, quite as "innocent" as in the preceding image the boys and girls are not.
And it requires a certain "art of persuasion" to take appropriate photos and video clips within about 2 hours
in order to produce - after appropriate processing of the material - a personal memory in the form of a professional and personalized DVD.

In addition to the edited photographs - of each individual, of the consecrations and of all -
the confirmands get a video produced in HD, which not fully meets the claim of seriousness.
After a short introduction, the confirmands will be introduced with their respective confirmation verse.
This can take - considering the number of 22 young people - some time to complete, but is part of the "mandatory program".
This is followed by the consecration groups. Thereafter, the "path of virtue" is left for the moment to echo in a conciliatory end.
The result
This year's "confirmation shooting" took place on 28 April. On Sunday, May 10, 11 girls and 11 boys were confirmed.
Following the confirmation church service they received their "confirmation packet"
which, inter alia, contains the following video.

Personal note: A family handed over an envelope following the confirmation church service.
It was to be read:

Thank you.
Family of a confirmand
Much obliged.
A small retrospective
Last year, 15 boys and girls were confirmed.
Although the structure of this video is very similar to the one of this year, there are nice differences.
See for yourself.
