Spy House Productions, Gundersen Entertainment Announce the Launch of Owlegories™

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Sept. 15, 2015 - PRLog -- Spy House Productions and Gundersen Entertainment announce today the launch of Owlegories™, the brand new gospel-centered animated series and interactive digital app that teaches kids about God through the amazing things found in nature and revealed in God’s Word. With the highly anticipated series debut October 20th in both Christian and general market retail stores, Owlegories™ Vol. 1 – The Sun, The Seed, and The Water will be available at Walmart, Lifeway, Family Christian Stores, local Christian bookstores, online and more, through Capitol Christian Distribution.

Owlegories was created by husband and wife team Thomas and Julie Boto. The animated series was brought to life with the help of producer Chad Gundersen and co-writer/co-director Keith Alcorn, creator and executive producer of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and The Ant Bully. Owlegories follows a group of student owls as they travel on adventures learning about nature, faith and God. The premise, “You can tell a lot about an artist by what he creates,” is the basis for this series that explores the nature of God as the Creator of the Universe while sharing the faith-based message of creation inspired by the series’ banner verse, Psalm 19:1-4 (NIV).

Following the success of the Owlegories first interactive storybook app created for families by the Boto family (Thomas, Julie and their four young sons), the Owlegories series features engaging storytelling, high quality animation and an “owl-star” cast of endearing characters, including Professor Owlester and student owls Violet, Gus, Joey, Nora and Twitch. Each lesson focuses on an element of nature that helps teach children about the characteristics of God and the truths found in His Word through the effective use of allegories, metaphors and analogies.

“My wife and I created Owlegories because we wanted a fun way to teach our kids about our great God and His amazing love for us,” shares Thomas Boto. “Our hope is that others can use the Owlegories episodes and our Owlegories apps as tools to teach family, friends, neighbors, classmates or the church body the wonderful truths of God’s Word and the good news of His saving grace. Creating Owlegories has been an incredible blessing, and I think the show and our apps reflect the fun we had in making it come to life.”

Highlights from each episode include the opening Owlegories theme song—with lyrics by Julie Boto, Thomas Boto and award-winning film composer/producer Mark Menza and music by Mark Menza (Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, Dragon Ball GT, Beet and Wishbone), pertinent Bible verse corresponding with each adventure, the “Owl Pledge” and a recap of the lesson, as well as the series key saying, “God loves you, and God loves me. He gives life to all we see.” Each episode is followed with a special message from a different Christian leader to help reinforce the lesson and further spread the gospel. Owlegories Vol. 1 features Dr. Tony Evans, Author/Blogger Jen Wilkin and Pastor Matt Chandler.

In addition to the Vol. 1 DVD series and interactive app, Owlegories TV may be downloaded as an app to any tablet or smartphone to watch the latest episodes. Kids can easily navigate to their favorite episodes and see previews of other available shows and upcoming episodes. Owlegories is ad free and safe for the whole family, so parents don’t have to worry about inappropriate content accidentally being viewed by little ones.

Furthermore, Owlegories will offer a fun, effective and interactive way to help young children memorize God’s Word with the release of the Owlegories Memory Verse app coming later this year. In the app, which features a number of different and silly voices, kids hear Bible verses as they try to catch the owls as they fly, run and jump around the screen. Kids can also play a memory verse scramble game to help learn the order of the verses and more.
