Gift of Ages is an animation I made in about a week and a half for my church's Christmas program.

Ah, there's so much to say about this one, but I somehow feel that explaining it will make it weaker. I should hope that the piece is strong enough to stand on its own without my having to prop it up with words.

And so for some of you I might have ruined Christmas. But to everyone else, I hope you've enjoyed this presentation and that it brings new meaning to the secular symbols we see annually.

Programs used: Flash 8, openCanvas, 3D Studio Max, and Sound Forge. All 3D work was done by my brother Brian (thanks!), and the music is Chopin's Etude in E major Op.10 No.3, as heard in the OST for Fullmetal Alchemist.

Newgrounds is a place to share art in the form of flash. Though people have forgotten, it's work like this that helps me to remember why this is a decent place.
Beautiful, by far the most touching and inspiring work here. Please continue your great work, and thank you so much!

I'm not a very religious individual, but that doesn't mean I'm a heartless bastard. That was touching, really. Music fit perfectly. Please keep your work flowing on Deviantart!
