Coming of the Messiahâ„¢
God's Loving Story of Salvation
24 Episodes - 45 minutes each
01
WHY make a production about the nativity?
As the world of entertainment delves deeper into stories showcasing the demonic as misunderstood heroes, today more than ever we need to remember the significance of Jesus' birth and what He came to do.
The truth about the consequences of evil needs to be revealed once again and reinforce the love and mercy shown by God by sending us our Saviour.
​
The purpose of this series is to witness to the truth that Christ's incarnation was the most epic event in human history, changing history forever and the course of countless lives who have turned to Him with a contrite heart.

WHAT SETS THIS PROJECT APART?
Our Coming of The Messiah™ is the first ever nativity story produced as a 3D animated series. What makes our studio's rendition of this event unique is that we recall the account of Creation to identify humanity's real enemy and to reveal the real conflict which necessitated our Lord's coming.
This series explores God's original plan for creation, the rebellion of the angels, and the fall of humanity. The series continues the journey through the Old Testament personages that prefigure Christ. We showcase the principal characters of the Old Testament which foreshadow Christ and which reveal a prophetic role fulfilled by Him.
With Noah we encounter a new beginning; with Melchizedek we identify His priesthood; with Abraham we enter into covenant; with Isaac we foresee the need of a sacrifice; with Moses we experience deliverance, with King David we see the establishment of kingship and the Kingdom; with Elijah we witness the reality of resurrection. These prefigurements assist the viewer to appreciate the cohesive mosaic of the story of salvation, culminating with the coming of the Messiah.
While the animated series is undoubtedly the most engaging medium for bringing the story to life, its impact is significantly amplified by the inclusion of a series of illustrated books and accompanying study guides. Together, these elements form a powerful catechetical tool—not only helping audiences visualize the Story of Salvation in its full biblical and theological context, but also guiding them to understand why the Church teaches what she does through the Catechism, and how those teachings are rooted in divine revelation and interpreted over time.
Although there have been Bible-based animations and traditional study programs in the past, Coming of the Messiah is the first project to unite all these components into one cohesive and transformative experience, which include:
-
24 Illustrated Books that follow the epic arc of our salvation history.
-
24 A Study Guide Booklets that presents rich theological and dogmatic teachings in an accessible and practical way.
-
A 24 Episode Animated Series that is both captivating and thoroughly faithful to the Catholic tradition, unfolding episode by episode.
Unlike other Bible studies, which may include video lectures in a documentary style—with a host presenting content and perhaps short dramatized clips—our approach is distinct. Coming of the Messiah is designed as a fully animated 3D series, with 24 cinematic episodes, each being 45 minute long, covering the story from Genesis to the Nativity as told in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke.
This is planned to be followed by a second season titled Life of the Messiah, which will trace Jesus’ early life, follow Him through His public ministry, and culminate with His Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension into Heaven.

Why aN ANIMATED series?
To accurately portray each character and their role in God's plan of redemption, we must present them through individual episodes. This approach allows us to clearly demonstrate how each Old Testament figure foreshadows Christ and His mission. Only by separating these stories can we fully connect the dots, revealing how God progressively unveiled aspects of His Son through these key historical figures.
Why INCLUDE STUDY GUIDES?
Throughout our research and development process, our team has experienced profound spiritual growth. As we’ve deepened our knowledge of the Lord, our faith, gratitude, and love for Him have been transformed in ways we never anticipated. What began as a creative project quickly became a deeply personal journey of discovery.
The clarity we’ve gained—about who God is, and how intimately He desires to be known—has touched not only our individual lives, but also our relationships, our work, and our purpose. It became clear to us that this understanding was not something to keep to ourselves. It is a gift meant to be shared.
Our deepest desire is for others to encounter what we have: the life-changing power of knowing and understanding the One we love—Jesus Christ, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit, One God in perfect unity. We want the world to experience the depth of love that arises from truly learning who God is, and from walking with Him in truth.

The 3NITY team is currently working on two 2D Pitch Videos:
-
"The Beginning" is a 2-minute video in 3D, showcasing how, in order to understand the magnificence of Jesus' birth, we must journey back to Eden to reveal the reason for His coming. We are currently working on the 2D grayscale animatic version of this event.
-
"The Story of Our Salvation" is a 10-minute grayscale animatic video which will introduce the overarching story of our series. We will have two versions of this video, one with a theological narration that explains our process of discerning our creative interpretation and another one that is enacted with voice-overs and music.
We have made our animatic in grayscale, which aids in the planning for each scene, and to see depth of field, lighting set up, etc.
These videos are our "proof-of-concept" to establish the level of quality our studio has committed to in its 3D development.
05
WHY 3D?
Because 3D assets are reusable and recyclable. While the initial investment will be much costlier at inception, it will enable us to produce many more biblical stories in a cost-effective manner, which is part of our long-term plan as a studio.
​
Below is our model for Adam in its initial development stage. Currently we are working on the "rig" which operates like the skeleton in a body. We then have to complete the "Look Development" with the final textures and hair.

OUR AIM WITH THIS PROJECT
Our goal is to create the first-ever 3D animated Bible Study, rooted in the overarching narrative of salvation. Using the 14 historical books of the Old Testament as our foundation, we will connect each key character and event to Jesus Christ.
Each main figure in the Old Testament foreshadows a vital aspect of the Messiah: Abraham reveals God’s covenant with humanity, Isaac prefigures the ultimate sacrifice for redemption, Moses embodies deliverance from sin, and King David foreshadows the establishment of God’s eternal Kingdom through Christ.
As the Evangelists affirmed, all Scripture points to Christ. This project seamlessly weaves Old Testament themes with the coming of the Messiah, culminating in the anticipation of His birth—the most epic story ever told.
The aim is to equip children with a cohesive knowledge of scripture, aided by visual media and strengthen with additional study guides and other materials.

IMPORTANT DETAILS OF THIS PROJECT
3NITY is committed to precision and adherence to Biblical revelation, especially in instances where we have to take creative license. In order to do so, we have a process of prayerful discernment when formulating our projects and scripts, working in tandem with our board of theologians and advisors.
The first step is to commit the vision into story parameters which then get dissected and expounded by the Creative Leadership team. Every piece is broken down by themes, reinforced by biblical references and historical evidence. During this process many theological questions may pop up such as: what kind of angel was Lucifer? This is important because the answer defines the concept art, the character development and even the arc of conflict / resolution.
Check out our blog to learn more about how we have been solving some of these major questions, which include why we chose to "clothe" Adam and Eve with "Light" or how we chose to represent God the Father, what that represents to us, the biblical reference to it and why it was important to us.
Come & See!
