Its a divx and is 20 meg.
Have fun and post comments please!

Come on - reply?

Very interesting approach for the message. One thing, shouldn't Jesus have changed the water into Mogen David or some other kind of kosher wine? Way to go. Merry CHRIST mass.

Yey! - Since I've posted this anim I've had 150 downloads - Cheers Guys! (yet only one of you were good enough to reply!).


I was thinking of adding more shots where the wine bottle is smashed by the bullet and JC brush's the dust from his clothes, then santa jumps into a sleigh and you hear the wicked witch of the west theme...?

My Dad is going to play it at our church on Sunday. Might be a laugh, might not be...

Hello Chrispo, sorry for that.... I should replay but I didn't.... I enjoyed very much and was well done. Unfortunately I had problems with my computer that I could not have audio.

Great job.

I loaded it up but it wont play right. I get the audio but the video freezes.

Thats weird, its divx? Is that a problem?

The direct link to the file is www.sadi.org.uk/short.avi
right click it and save to the desktop...

Merry Christmas

Hahaha... hahahahaha! Man, that is crazy-funny! When are you going to enlighten the "masses" (i.e. pathectic noobs like me) with a tutorial on your stylized modeling techniques? :)

wow, such a good animation.
very well done.
the sound effects and background music were very well thought out.
the matrix thing is a bit worn out, but nonetheless, great vid.

cheers - Im new to 3d, and sfx is not a biggy with me... It took 3 weeks to make to enter a competition in 3dfightclub.com.

Great concept chrispo! Glad you have the 'guts' to bring you message to life. Besides Christmas has become a little too commercial in the Santa Claus sense. I still dig Santa but come on people, more often than not the true meaning of/for Christmas always falls by the wayside...Again great effort!

cheers man. Im working real hard on another

WOW, what a GreaT message!! and a great way to put it.

Excellent Animation
Excellent Modeling
Excellent Editing

CHEERS!

Great animation man :):):) and great message to

lol - You guys are cool, I thought it might offend.

Actually something that quite suprised me,

I looked through a search engine for companies that do custom 3D animations,
almost 80% of the companies were christian organizations
cool huh?

God is a creative dude, look what he done in 7 days!

That could mean that most of the members here might be christian...

Even better, though once someone who has a strong view stumbles over this thread there will be hell to pay!

So - To all you fellow JC lovers - HAIL!

(thats the end of it Mods!)

I like your creativity... some good camera work too. But I see another message that is not good.

You trivialize Christ by making Him a streetside side show. So on the one had you say He is indespensible, and on they other you say He's a performer. I don't really jive with that. It basically falls under blasphemy, really.

Be careful. You can certianly have comedy and laughs, but not at the expense of Jesus' majesty.

It's encouraging to see so many Christians actively involved in this site! I'm just starting out with Lightwave (am working through 2 different books... I just animated a cube... ;) ) and can't wait to be at a level where I can pick your brains for tips, tricks, and insight to make my modeling better. As a side note, I've attatched a picture I made for a Christian band called "Desert Rain". Made it about nine months ago completely in Bryce. After working with Bryce for too long, I decided it was time I took a step into the "deep end" of 3D modeling, and that's when I started with Lightwave. Right now I'm pretty much just lurking on this forum, but I hope to have things to post soon-ish. :)

Hmm... no pic in last one... I guess that's what I get for trying to preview a post...

I love the compositions you do, (environments and stuff) the look really good , and the normal stuff is original, a quality trait in 3D

I really like that Leroy it has a very illustrative look to it.

Hey, Leovenous - If you were to link to my site www.thirddayimage.com you would read my idea on the short. I dont want to make Jesus out to be all Holy - We all know who He is, I just wanted to paint a picture of Him still doing miricles today. But I wanted to keep it fun. My music is too dark for the actual peice. It removes the humour, my fault as I only had a few nights to put it all together in the edit to comptete.

Im currently making a new movie (30mins) that I hope to get on the God Channel over here, though its not funny at all. I'll have to develop a new style of character. Keep you posted?

Yeah! Keep us ALL posted!
