The Shepherd
It is officially Christmastime! RevelationMedia is excited that The Real Story of Christmas, an eleven-minute iBIBLE episode featuring the birth of Christ and a call to respond to God’s invitation of salvation, is now available. The art team has been joyfully bringing the New Testament world to life through our new 3D animation format, including the shepherds. Today, see one of these iconic Christmas characters in this behind-the-scenes glimpse into the making of iBIBLE.
First off, here’s a model that the artists use to draw from when creating the cast of shepherds for iBIBLE Life of Christ.
Next, here is an image of the typical outfit a shepherd of the time and region would have worn when tending their flocks.
Finally, take a look at the shepherd himself in 3D animation. These people were often isolated from their society, and yet the angelic host of Heaven appeared to them, with the angel Gabriel declaring the Good News that Jesus the Messiah was born in Bethlehem. Jesus, it was declared, was a gift for all of mankind.
Thank you for supporting iBIBLE! Your generous giving makes it possible for us to continue animating the entire Biblical Narrative, from creation to the second coming of Christ. iBIBLE will be the first-ever visual and interactive presentation of the entire Divine Narrative of Scripture. It’s a big project, but God keeps providing the way forward. Join us as we continue to make God’s Word accessible and free to the global missions community.
