Draft intro sequences
I've spent a lot of time working on different drafts of the opening sequence for our kids channel, and while none of these made the final cut I wanted to share them anyway!
2019-12-24 20:12:40 +0000 UTC View PostDating of Daniel - Historical Evidence, 2/3
Okay, this is a big one. 35 minutes of discussion of some of the problematic dates in Daniel, the figure of Nebuchadnezzar, as well as Belshazzar. We know it's not due to come out for another month, but Josh wanted you guys to have it early!

I just finished this and I had to show you :D it needs a barcode, and an author photo, but apart from that the cover for our grammar is done! What do you think?

Hi everyone,
I know there's been some radio-silence lately - I'm very sorry about that! We are still here, we are still running the channel and HAPS, and we do still plan on launching our kids channel in the new year.
I am currently in the final stages of editing Josh's Sumerian Grammar book, and that's been my ma...

2019-10-24 20:00:24 +0000 UTC View PostAnimesopotamia opening sequence draft
It needs some work (the files with transparent backgrounds are currently stuck on my iPad!) and some music, but I wanted to test out the opening sequence I had in mind.
What do you think?

One of the more contentious discussions when it comes to the Old Testament (and the Bible, for that matter) is when the Book of Daniel was written. Because it describes events that happened in history, if it was written centuries before these events, the book would be evidence for genuine prophecy. If it was writ...

A kind subscriber pointed out to me that I missed Enuma Elish tablet 6! This week's upload now means that the complete Enuma Elish is on the channel - I'll put a playlist together early next week so you can watch them all, and hopefully (soon) edit together all of the videos into one long narration :)

Intertextuality script, part 1
The intertextuality/plagiarism video is morphing from one video into two or three, mainly because it's so fascinating that I want to spend some time on it. Here's the rough draft of the script for video one!

I just got to the halfway point with the video editing and thought I'd show you lovely people what I've come up with!
The intro needs some work, but I think the rest of it is looking pretty good.

You may have noticed that all of our social media has been rebranded over the past week. While I was very proud of the original graphics we made for the channel, it was definitely time for a change! I realised as I finished the editing process for a new video that our intro sequence and end screen no longer worked with the fe...
