Three Wise Beans, A Christmas Journey:
Brief:
A fantasy parody story, featuring Three Wise Beans that go on a Christmas journey to visit the Baby Jesus. The Beans meet the super-cute Baby Cheeses and sing them an enchanting lullaby.
The lullaby parodies the "Away in a Manger" Christmas carol.
The song lyrics were first developed and the Three Wise Men (from the Bible story) became Three Wise Beans. We like to use Beans as they are one of our featured "creature characters" in the Noodle Bowl Countryside fantasy land (the home of our website creations).
As the song lyrics use a play-on-words, the audience needs to read the lyrics while watching the animation. Thus subtitles were used throughout.
There are 3 main scenes, i.e.
1. Where the Three Wise Beans set off on their journey, which sets the scene for the story.
2. Where the Three Wise Beans arrive outside the stable
3. Finally where the Three Wise Beans are inside the stable of the Baby Cheeses
