Today I'll start the storyboards for Chubis- a short animation bit I'll be working on. St. Chubis is a lesser known Apostle of Our Lord chosen for his availability, referred to privately by some as "St. Upid". I guess he's the patron saint of those of us who are just a bit off-center socially- lacking some of the subtle nuance-ical filters that help to prevent awkward moments.
The clip I'll be working on today centers around an intimate gathering of a few disciples and Jesus. While Jesus is sharing with them 'the parable of the cock-tease' (A parable admonishing those who would taunt birds in cages) , the small group becomes aware of the elephant in the room- a visually repulsive spider that is slowly making it's way toward Jesus' foot.
As the disciples muse to themselves as to how their Master will respond to the impending contact with this vile thing that creepeth,(will he suffer the creature to crawl up his foot?, Will he 'will' the spider to change course?, will the spider change course of his own accord? Does he use this as an opportunity to extol the virtues of the love of life in all of its manifestations?) even Jesus' seems a little unnerved. Chubis breaks the spell of the collective introspection by introducing his bare foot with an audible wet 'crunch'.
While some are curious as to whether or not the unfortunate creature's spiritual form would be in Heaven, it's physical form would later make an appearance during a solemn foot washing ceremony.
