5 min countdown

[rafikiwilliams]

the church i attend wants a 5 min countdown to play before service every week.

it would be some kind of cool background, with the countdown from 5mins on the bottom right, and the current time on the bottom left.

so my question is, what is the best way to go about making a countdown from 5 mins, AND what would be the best way to throw in the time? (i know the time will not be a live thing, i just simply need it to go in real time from 8:55-9:00)

go to time code generator and let it play to the time you want the countdown to start from and put it in reverse

we do this at my church and we use after effects

is it pretty simple in after affects? i might just go that route if it is
