Prologue


  When the "Prologue" begins, the sound of thunder is heard and video of a mixture of fire and smoke and lightning in the sky appears on the screen as shown below in Model 1. Following this, the angel Gabriel appears from within the fire and smoke looking out at the audience as shown below in Model 2 and begins speaking to the audience from the dialogue below. Models 1-16 below show the action that takes place in the "Prologue."  Note: don't pay any attention to the stage, lighting tressel and amps in the models below. They were originally created for "The Unveiling" musical but this is a preview for the movie.  


Gabriel: I’ve been here from the beginning and have seen it all. Sin has ravaged mankind since its birth and the curse of death has defiled all creation. Through the ages, man waged war and I witnessed firsthand the slaughter of hundreds of millions of people as man pursued his lust for power and turned away from the face of God. As the pages of history turned, pestilence and famine befriended war and countless more millions perished. But nothing rivaled the death and destruction of the final seven years. The war, pestilence and famine of the past were merely labor pangs foreshadowing the birth of the most wicked age in man’s history. But there was a light amidst all the darkness, a man with a message of hope who fought evil. This is his story. This is “The Unveiling.”-(When Gabriel begins speaking the second sentence from the dialogue above, video of Eve standing by the the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden of Eden with a piece of fruit from the tree in her hand starts playing superimposed on the fire and smoke background as shown below in Model 3. In addition, Satan(the serpent) is seen in the video looking down and speaking to Eve from the tree as shown below in Model 3. As Gabriel says sentence 2 from the dialogue above, Eve brings the fruit to her mouth and takes a bite out of it. Shortly thereafter, the tree, Eve and the serpent wither falling on to the ground until they are no longer visible in the video. Immediately thereafter, Gabriel starts saying the third sentence in the dialogue above and video of the graves in Normandy begins playing on the fire and smoke background as shown below in Model 4. From this point forward, video clips of the images shown below in Models 5-10 appear on the fire and smoke background with Gabriel in the sequence shown in the models below in sync with the audio that's playing as Gabriel speaks. Following the nuclear explosion as shown below in Model 10, Gabriel fades out and the video on the screen shows just the fire and smoke background as shown below in Model 11. As Gabriel continues speaking from the dialogue above, the fire and smoke background on the screen dissipates and a new image begins to emerge as shown below in Models 12-15. By the time Gabriel finishes the dialogue above, the new image is clearly visible on the screen and the music accompanying "Prologue" ends. The new video image is the club "Crossroads" on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood showing the band Joshua's Tree is playing a sold out show on Halloween night as shown below in Model 16. Joshua's Tree is the band of the main character in "The Unveiling" Joshua Wells. It's about 11:00 P.M. on Halloween night and Joshua's Tree is playing a showcase gig at the club. Joshua is a highly sought after musician and several labels are at the show.
