This is a video introduction to the story Phall if you but will rise you must. I am thinking of animating the entire story and maybe others as well.

Would not watch 30 min. Do want to see the narrator at start and more background to set the stage.
Thank you for the comment! I am planning to include the narrator in next section. That is technically difficult though (to do it well that is).
It’s a beautiful story! Might be good to give the name of the tribe for the source if it’s known.
Thanks. I wrote it, so maybe the Tribe of Israel 😉
There you go!

I loved it, very well done. It kept my interest and the images were wonderful. As I caveat I must add that I am an avid collector or native art, have a house full so the subject is of particular interest. I have to ponder what I think about animation, maybe but I loved the images. I also read some of your blog which I had been told was very interesting and it was!! Best, Jacqui Bostrom

Is good! I know folks are reading the blog, but I get very little feedback which I need to improve.
Nice storyline, great photos. Assume children are your target audience? Suggest you slow down the narration.
Hi Marilyn. Thank you so much for the feedback. A number of people have told me to slow down the narration. I will do that. No, this is not really a children’s story. It is a fable and hence a bit childlike in its telling, but it is meant to speak to adults. It is actually the prologue to the larger story whose link is above (and here) https://www.torsorotation.com/2014/09/phall/
Thanks again! Paul
