These photos were taken specifically for a post I made about the storied doorknobs and hinges on the temple. For more information on that, see the post here.

Being caught up with the Temple render releases for now, I am back to my Historic Video series. Today takes us forward to the year 1888, and for the first time, the Manti Utah Temple. the video here shows the temple as it would have looked when completed, as well as other buildings representing the support structures built to help the workers in the construction effort. Historic photos show that these buildings remained on site for many years after the dedication.
Continue reading “Historic Temple Video Series- Manti Utah Temple (1888)”We have arrived at Manti Utah Temple. All the hops from here on out will be short, just for a photo or twelve, then we will be on our way again. so. if you aren’t already here, or right close by, you probably. won’t catch us.
In what will be our longest hop for the day we are on our way to Manti Utah. While we are traveling, we will be reading the history for the Manti Utah Temple, as well as reading the 2 Dedicatory Prayers (1888, 1985.)
We plan on being there around 11 AM Utah time.
My Manti Utah Temple video is now finished. I feel pretty good about this one, it is one of my more complete models. Not only that, but if you click through the image at the bottom of this post, my Manti Temple page features renders of different stages of the Temples evolution, including all the changes to the annex.
Today I worked on the Manti Utah Temple. From the south side, where I usually provide my renders from, there is absolutely nothing different. You would not know I did anything. From the North Side, look at the progress I made on the Annex:
Compare it to the previous render I showed from here:
I needed to drop the height of it, pull in the trim above, and drop the grounds on the north end by the entrance. The entryway is now shorter as well. Windows are in, as are the blinds behind it.
It may not look like I did much, but I did. I have a new texture for the retaining wall, was white before. Also there I have finished most of the west tower.
Mostly I started in on the Annex. Like St George and Logan, Manti has an attached annex on the north side of the temple. unlike those two temples, where the annex is heavily influenced by styles of the 70’s when they were added, Manti’s annex is appropriate to the period the temple was originally built. This means it looks fantastic, but will take longer than a few hours to throw together.
It might not look like much progress, but trust me, there are all kinds of fiddly little details that were not there before. Also some improvements to the textures, especially the windows, which are now beginning to have blinds. Crenelation are in on the first portion of the retaining wall, the tower tops are more accurate, and buttresses are now everywhere.
Here is last months render:
And here is the new one:
This is a fantastic Photoshoot, probably my all-time favorite for the Manti Utah Temple. I started late afternoon, in a breaking rainstorm, with rainbows, and finished up early evening, with the lights on on the temple.
