This Wednesday at 2pm i’m scheduled to meet with the animation factory manager at KL Sentral train station. I hope to show him some of the animation work done on this book up to now, and talk about what his company can do. He work in 2D animation.
Please pray for us, that God will work on his heart to melt it, and that i will be able to lead him to Christ, and that this 2nd most important book in the world can get into a format that many, even of the little children, will enjoy spending time with.
Dear Father God,
Please bless Brother Daniel during his meeting. May your will be done.
In Jesus name. Amen.
Still here at Starbucks in KL Sentral train station where i just met with the animator. We talked about 40 minutes. His idea is good. Rather than jump into the deep waters with a full-length movie, maybe it would be better to draw one or two pics for each chapter and make a manga (comic book) first. An anime would have to have a story board, and the manga pics would form the basis for the story board in the future if we decide to push forward with this project.
.
Please, Lord, these words are yours. Please use me in spreading them around the world. Show me the best way to work for you.
Last week the animator called me and told me his company’s decision.
.
He said that several of the animators were concerned about working on a religious project. He didn’t mention more about that, but Malaysia being a Muslim country, i can imagine what some of the concerns were. It is possible tho, that they were just wary of getting involved with an “unknown”.
.
He also said that to make the book into a manga, it would require some “massaging” of the text. He said that would probably be unacceptable to me, which i assured him it was. The words are from God, so we have no right to change them.
.
He ended his conversation by saying that he was very busy now, but in September he would start to look at this project to see what he can do.
.
Lord, how do you want your words spread? Please open the path so we can have a part to play in this awesome work.
For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.
Proverbs 24:6
Thank you R. Thomas. This is the same verse the pastor used in prayer meeting last nite 🙂
