Matthew's Five's Nine   -  Currently in Production

. . . an eyewitness tour through the Gospel of Matthew, to a concept thoroughly rooted in faith yet paving the way far beyond anything yet imagined – the concept of marriage. As shows such as Family Guy, after The Simpsons, have established, animation clearly communicates the simple truths of complex dynamic social systems and practices and is uniquely suited to relating these truths. Indeed, since the sinking of the Lusitania, this is animation's destiny ! As shrewd as any two bit advertising executive, HESUS JOY CHRIST puts images to work establishing the divine role of marriage as put forth in Pope John Paul II's 'Theology of the Body'.

Personal concrete references to the life of the filmmaker flesh out the first five episodes of HESUS JOY CHRIST . Matthew's Two Four, based on the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthew, which is about the signs of the end of the age, is the beginning of this series, as the beginning end of this age of HESUS JOY CHRIST. Matthew's One Too ! is from the first chapter of the Gospel of Matthew and lists the matrigeneosophy of the matriarchal influences before continuing on to the story of the conception of marriage. Matthew's Two , relating to the second chapter of the Gospel of Matthew, which is the story of the Wise Men and the escape to Egypt, becomes the story of the marriage relationship preparing to be acknowledged. Matthew's Three Fold, from the third chapter of Matthew, is about an early minister of marriage acknowledging a marriage relationship. Matthew's Foretold, from the fourth chapter of Matthew, is about the temptation endured by the marriage relationship and the influence that relationship has on the community.

The animation is fully coloured simple line drawings, carrying the story that although simple, bears considerable consideration. Approximately 20,000 words have been, or will be, written by the filmmaker discussing the text of each animation alone, and can be read at www.sites.google.com/site/vid932008 .

Matthew's Five's Nine, is based on the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew, which includes the Beatitudes, and is currently in production. Two previews may be viewed at www.sites.google.com/site/vid932008 . It may take years to complete this full production that began in 2010. This episode does not have any references to the personal life of the filmmaker.
