After being an Odissey fan since childhood (and still being pissed of that Argo wasn't immortal) I just realised thanks to this video, that Argo's role wasn't just to *wait* for his master. He was working, protecting and kinda trying to fill in the void within his family. He wasn't just Odisseus' dog, he was his family dog too. And he worked himself so hard, and was so good. And brb I'm going to hug my dog and cry. Thank you for putting him in this video, and to animate this song that finally gives some nice space and voice to Telemachus that is ofter a silent voice in this story, even more than Penelope. This animation is real good.

I love this so much. The dynamic change between 'scenes' and areas, it was a little search of Telemachus' own, 'looking' for the answers he needs.

Yeah, he was the first "recorded" dog to wait for his master who doesn't come back, though it remains heartwarming that he at least got closure by seeing Odysseus one last time, unlike some of the others that unfortunnately did not get this chance. Rest in peace to all of our lost loyal comrades, and let's hope they at least got the chance to meet their friends once more after.

Fantastic animatic! Also 1:39 is that suppsed to be Argos?! (For those who never read the Odyssey, Argos is Odysseus's loyal dog who waits 20 years for him to return.

[@cloudphoenix241]

This is so good! The style is amazing, the backdrop of Telemachus's room is really cool & feels like something he'd have with posters & figurines. The use of light and dark is able to make things stand out (Telemachus) or blend together (the suitors), it's also just worth mentioning that not everyone does that kind of thing when making animatics. the movement and dynamic poses are really cool and really well done & I love the part where he's using his hands to represent the different creatures. Sorry, I sound like a teacher or something but I just felt like saying "It's underrated and I love it" would be an understatement.
