Nativity: Shepherd 2

Costume:

Big heavy coat and scarf

Filming:

Please read the information for filing which can be found here before you start.

Ideally, learn the lines off by heart and speak them to the camera, or, print the lines on a large piece of paper and hold behind or to the side of the camera.

Remember to say or have a piece of paper that shows the Scene number (eg S03 = Scene Three) before you start each section.

Look like you are freezing cold, shiver a little bit, go Brrrr or something then say your lines:

S29

Get that fire going.

S31

It’s always the same.

S33

Nothing exciting ever happens around here.

S38

Can we come in?

S40

We’ve brought some lambs for him.

S34

Then film yourself sitting down, feeling a bit sleepy and drowsy, yawning, then lying down maybe nearly falling asleep.  But then you shield your eyes from a bright light in the sky, and you look surprised and a bit scared.  Continue to film, for at least 10 seconds like that (as you listen to what the Angel says)

This is to film some background video while the Narrator says:

The shepherds were getting sleepy, but just as they were dozing off a bright light appeared in the sky. A beautiful angel hovered above them and spoke in a very loud voice.

S99

Say loudly:

Jesus, the Son of God is born!
