oh the transformation kinksters are gonna go fucking crazy with this

Still would

Well I enjoyed that one. The origin of Scylla and well that was a heck of a enjoyable watch

Poor Scylla😢1:43

Love the animatic, unfortunately your pov of the story went over my head. I'll pretend i understand though necause it was well executed

Wow beautiful

I hate that in Greek mythology there's no really a trustworthy woman that other women can lean on when needed. Aside from Artemis, Nemesis, Ceres and Hestia, sadly they aren't very active. Like, even the goddesses of women and feminity aren't sororal.

OMG I LOVR HOW U SHOWED SCYLLA'S BACKSTORY OMG

Oh this is stunning! I waant excepting the backstory telling but i LOVE IT!

someone read Circe by Madeline Miller

I know it was just posted 13 days ago but this is insanely underrated this will go viral soon…one of the best I’ve seen

this makes that last line hit harder because its less the "you are a monster like me" to a more "we are monsters because this world forced us to become one"

This was incredibly well done. The transformation was horrific and brutal not in a bloody and violent way, but just how painful it was to watch fantastically animated great job.

Logical person: So let me get this straight. You cursed a woman whom your crush had a crush on. Circe: Yes Logical: Let me rephrase that. That woman you cursed... Showed no interest to your crush, and your crush showed up to your door begging for help on making her love him. Circe: Uh huh... Logical: .... Why would you curse a woman who said no to him? She doesn't have ANY interest to him! Circe: BECAUSE HE LOVES HER AND I LOVE HIM. Logical: SO YOU CURSED HER FOR EXISTING?!

Scylla's story will always make me feel so sad for her. You portrayed that so well here. Especially where we see her clearly malnourished and more skinny. Jesus christ it's sad. We'll done 💯❤️

Oh this is so cool that you did scyllas whole story for this wowowowoww

The fact her curls got washed out from being in the water for so long, poor girl

incredible animation

ONMGGG?????^?

Now the line "die in the blood where you bathe" has a different meaning because in a way scylla the sea nymph died where she bathed and Scylla the sea monster was born I just found this interesting

I thought the woman pointing the man that way was a Siren telling Poseidon where Odysseus was But oh my god this is so cool I've never seen Scylla's transformation animated before!

This is incredible! I didn’t know Scylla’s story but not surprised she was made a monster by careless Greek gods! I was wondering if I could ask you a question one of my kids would like to make an animatic for epic as well but we don’t know how to use the music without getting a copyright claim. Can you tell me how you did it or give me a link that we could follow to figure it out? Thanks so much!

0:38 is that rule breaker

YOOOOOO🔥🔥🔥

GOATESQUE

MY HEART This is outstanding, phenomenal, extraordinary 💖

Okay, I gotta ask just to be sure: is that dagger on display in Circe's study Medea's RULE BREAKER? Or is just a huge coincidence?

💙💙💙

Cool video! And I wonder if Scylla's backstory inspired "The Little Mermaid". Merperson falls in love with someone with legs, and goes to a witch for help.

This looks absolutely stunning and wonderful oh wow!! I don’t know too much about Scylla’s tale but it is quite tragic from what I’ve heard, so I love how you showed her backstory!

I enjoy the play on the “we are the same you and I” lyrics, the idea being that not only are Scylla and Odysseus monstrous but both are abused by the gods and forced into that life.

Insanely beautiful good job!!

Hi everyone! I wasn't expecting all these kind comments, it's really heartwarming, thank you all for your support!! To clarify on Scylla's story (since there are a few versions and the animatic itself might be confusing), the guy pestering Scylla is actually Glaucos, a god who was once a fisherman. After she rejected him, he went to Circe for help, who became angry with Scylla because of her own love for Glaucos. And that's how it went! Poor Scylla, really. Again, thanks for all the love on this <3

No flowers,no "hi how you doing",Greek gods are horible flirts (That poseidon right?)

The Poseidon design is amazing

Wow that ending has such a different feeling after that backstory. It almost feels like a “Look at the beasts they made of us” The way that gods have toyed with them until they became unrecognizable

Anyway, fuck you Glaucus for not taking a no for an answer. And I LOVE the "Circe Invidiosa" reference"

Not her being malnourished on the time the song is taking place with Odysseus (Loving that detail and how it shows that she has had it rought ever since)

There are just... No words I can say at this moment but just say how much I ADORE THIS ANIMATION!!! I didn't know the story, but I know with Greek Mythology, it had to be some sort of tragedy.. I also just love how at the beginning, it's Scylla behind the stone, and as she swims, it transitions to Poseidon (Or Glaucus? Unsure..), as we get a flashback to Scylla before she became the way that she is now.

CIRCE PAINTING REFERENCE SPOTTED HELL YES (also love your Glaucus design, it looks so cool!)

For anyone who doesn’t know the tale of Scylla’s origin, I’ll explain it. Or, well, explain the one portrayed in this amazing animatic, for there are many! So I am assuming this is the origin that is being portrayed…Scylla was once an absolutely gorgeous nymph, so beautiful that she caught the attention of Poseidon. Poseidon claimed her, but this created jealousy from the other water nymphs. Poseidon’s wife, Amphritite-pardon my most likely misspelling-was enraged at this affair and poisoned the spring water from which Scylla drank out of. This poison transformed her into the creature we now know her to be. Insert bow, there you go my fellow mythology disciples, may you take this insignificant knowledge and create significance for it, such as this wonderful creator has done! Good job on the animatic, it is quite lovely!

Wow esto es bello, me encanta que hayas mostrado la historia de Scylla. Ella no siempre fue ese monstruo hambriento, alguna vez fue una joven inocente cuyo único "pecado" fue gustarle al crush de Circe.

I love that reference to the painting "Circe Envidiosa" by Jhon William Waterhouse. I'm using that painting as an inspiration for my own version of Circe. Poor Scylla, the poor girl was just minding her bussiness and ended up transformed into a monster.

This is amazing!!!! It’s such great visual story telling too because my knowledge of the Scylla myth going into this was iffy at best and I still could tell what was going on 100% of the time. Scylla’s transformation at the end was heartbreaking I wanna give her a hug

Absolutely incredible! Your work is SO GOOD, the only reason you're not instantly one of the top animators of the fandom is because not enough people have seen this yet!!

WOW. JUST. WOW

OMG THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I IMAGINED THE SCENE AS A KID!!! I swear Scylla's backstory *terrified* me back then, and you portrayed exactly why: the fact she saw her new heads coming out of the water without being immediately clear they were a *part of her* ... that was such an uncanny image and you captured it perfectly!
