No Longer You_EPIC: The Musical Animatic

[@AM-ji4mv]

Tiresias' blindfold unraveling to reveal a glowing eye was SO COOL

[@annablaze4577]

Yeah

[@madebyoneart]

I love that after odysseus asks "WHO!?" tiresias just repeats his lyrics. Much to Odysseus confusion. But he did answer Odysseus' question of who is with his wife. Himself. He just doesn't know that yet. It's like that one word finally sealed his fate, and now no other path is possible. And what the prophet said before is now his only path forward, and ending.

[@StoryLover-7]

You saw the parody of this scene from Jorge? It's hilarious, I love his humour. Since I saw it I just can't think of else but that clip when I hear this part of the musical. X"DD

[@BonkyBee]

@@ThatOneNerdInCabin13 "I see portrayals of betrayal and a brother's final stand." He did! The scene revolves around not only Odysseus's betrayal of his own men, sacrificing six to get the rest home, but also the betrayal of his men after his own and the mutiny that followed. The brother's final stand was Eurylochus attempting to take control, seeing that Ody would do anything he could to get home to his wife and son. Prophecies are rarely ever linear and distinguishable, since there's so much betrayal and selfishness in human nature that really, it's impossible to even grasp what an oracle says in the moment; he lost the advantage of Athena's wisdom as a Warrior of the Mind. They're starving, he's desperate, and that does a lot to cloud the mind.

I like how Tiresias looked caught off guard when Odysseus yelled at him. It gave me "don't hurt me I'm just the Messager" vibes. Maybe he wasn't expecting the reaction from Odysseus or he wasn't expecting Odysseus to grab him. Ok well maybe he did because he can see the future but it still could have surprised him. It's like when you're watching a scary movie and you know a jump scare is going to happen but you still get scared when it actually does happen.

I LOVE that someone else finally captured the same way I interpreted this encounter by thinking that Tyresius is almost frustrated that Odysseus is being so stubborn about not believing that the prophecy isn't the problem. Seeming to almost intentionally upset Odysseus more by giving him the "palace in red" verse in retaliation, and basically telling him "you're in MY house so play by MY rules and don't make me say it again" by stating the original prophecy with such hard finality at the end.

[@Whooachannel]

in the original story its the prophet who tells Odysseus that in order to get home safely he's not to kill the golden cows. But he didnt do that here, here he essentially tells him "lol sorry your on your own" so I wonder how the story is going to progress now seeing as killing the golden cow is what fucked the rest of the crew and got them killed and Odysseus trapped on the island with calypso

[@LMichaela94]

It's possible that advice will be spoken. I don't think the musical is sung-through (a la Hamilton) since there are a couple key moments like that missing.

@@TonyaGreenBane That was the important part. Essentially the river Styx is death as a river, the waters wash away life. You can't normally survive taking a swim in it, what Achilles's mother did was she essentially washed away all of Achilles's mortality *except for the heel*, still giving him a tether with which he could cling to life from. Its why his heel is his weak spot, his soul was basically compressed into the bottom of his foot to make the rest of him invincible!

I think, based on the fact that Eury’s hairline is the only one he sees, that this is exactly what Tiresias meant. It could mean something else, like Eury’s important to Ody, and he’s the one that he looks up to(literally he’s like, a foot taller than Ody) and all that deep stuff, but no. I choose to believe that Tiresias just really like’s this guy’s hairstyle.

holy Shit that shot of Odysseus falling right on time with the music.... speechless

[@Grey___-]

Tiresias fr thought he was gonna die again after that "WHO?!" I agenuinely loved how scared/shocked he was when Ody grabbed him and shouted

[@lenni01]

I love that after ody asks “who” the repeating of the prophecy makes him step back in horror realizing what He would become

[@koldailair-rm1yj]

Your style and everything gave me chills! Every scene made my skin crawl like I was about to be stabbed. Love your style hope to see more!

[@docamelia7415]

Omg that change in the second verse where Tiresias is refering to Scylla and Mutiny aaaaaaa the first verse's betrayal was the open of the bag of wind then the second verse's is the golden cows!!! I love how you separate the two verses!!!!

[@eggmoth7408]

THIS IS SO GOOD OKFISJD THE DETAILS!!! THE COLORS!!! I HAVE REWATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES ALREADY!! YOU DID A PHENOMENAL JOB!!!

[@nicholaseklund39]

DUDE!!! The whole ending sequence was flipping phenomenal!!! The last “But it’s NO LONGER… youuuuuuuuu” I got so many chills, with the revealing of the eye, and shot to red background, that was amazing. I’ve listened to this song so many times, but this was the first time I actually didn’t know how it would end. This was absolutely amazing, incredible work 👏👏👏

[@alexanderstrauss7331]

I feel so certain that at some point in the future, there will be line where “draw your final breath” will become “triumph over death”

[@J1407b_slugcat]

i cannot get over how fucking heartwarming it is to see Eurylochus or however you spell it at the end with Odysseus. Despite the situation it is so cute to see such kinship.

[@reinyarain]

It's my favorite music from the Underworld album ! Tiresias' voice is so powerful that it gives me chills. I love how the flashbacks are drawn. The scene getting red as Tiresias said "I see your palace covered in red" is so ingenious and greatly thought. The hands holding back Odysseus are also well thought, as to represent his regrets and sacrifices.

[@Soybean_8]

I love the small details you added! This may be one of my favorite animatics of this song!

[@MizuShadowWolf]

this is SOO BEAUTIFUL i love how you use colors throughout, how you draw the memories and the future touching odysseus, strangling him. And the very end, where the prophet's bandages fall away and that unseeing/all-seeing eye just pierces through him aaaa this is amazing!!

[@Not4Raccoons]

The way you animate predatory men in these animations are incredible. Absolutely incredible. 10000/10.

[@scooburst]

The end where the color scheme changes is so genius. And Odysseus being pushed off the edge, and this being the song that sparks his mental downfall, the bandages on the prophet unraveling, it’s just so good.

[@cantfinddiamonds]

that's officially my fav EPIC animation, everything is just perfect!! the emotions, the designs, i love how you capture their feelings perfectly, the flashbacks, the littles details, WOW i don't hve the words :,) and the END WOW it's like the best one i've seen, with the dramatic instrumental, it gave such CHILLS 🙌✨‼

[@robinmichelleartistry]

This is literally one of my favorite songs from Epic because of how it's sung and the way you brought the characters to life in this animatic makes it all the better.

[@yahyah_uwuroblox492]

This is probably the only animatic that I have seen Odysseus get aggressive with Tireses well done ❤

[@robinpolito7252]

Oh my GOD the absolute CHOKEHOLD this has on me I’m obsessed with your cinematography the footsteps?!?! Amazing!
