The Messenger (Part II) - The Garden

Here begins a series of posts for "The Messenger (Part II)"! We were tasked with carrying onward the original art direction and design from the Christmas story of "Part I", this time telling the story of Easter (once again through the angel Gabriel's eyes).

But as some sequels go, the story welcomed a much broader scope. So I was fortunate enough to be able to partner with @Ian Moss (another solid illustrator at Valley Creek Church) as we worked in tandem on tackling each illustration shot by shot. The only way this was able to work well was for me to effectively lead the project by clearly communicating the art direction to Ian, while working on select scenes myself, so it appeared as though the entire video came from the same illustrator! It was a major stretching opportunity for the both of us, but I'm pleased to say that it was worth the effort.

Here is one of my contributions to the piece - an illustration depicting Gabriel comforting and strengthening Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:43). Thanks guys!
