We'll Be Fine | EPIC The Musical Animatic

[@prinzdersee]

It's so clean. Athena and Telemachus are both beautifully drawn

[@nanamarynina609]

the animatic is pretty cool, but the owl completely steals the scene 😊

[@tumblingartist]

IKR ITS SO CUTE

Big Owl and Baby Owl bonding 🥹🦉

The end card has telemacus reading a paper that says how to not die in a fight by athena.

[@anansajohnson9139]

I know a lot of people are going to talk about Athena and the cute owl, but i want to talk telemachus. The desgin for him is so simple, but its wonderfully done. I can look at the thumbnail as see he is a 19-20 young man, which is hard without making him look too young you know? So great work.❤

[@kisudoodles]

omg thank you! i was worried my design was kinda boring because when i started designing them i only listened to the songs so by the time i got to seeing other peeps' amazing art of telemachus i was like wow mine is so plain in comparison

[@anansajohnson9139]

No, you did a wonderful job. I can so see him dressing up at first around the suitors, then was like screw this after a while. I love the muscle definition you gave him, like he is fit but not in a fighter sort of way. As his arm movements are great with how he rotates his arm as the owl moves around on it.,@@kisudoodles

[@kallandar13]

I second this; scrawny sweetheart Telemachus is fine, but this one actually looks like a 19-ish year old who has probably participated in the sports events that were very common at the time-the Greeks looooooved a feast and wrestling/archery/etc. entertainments alongside.

[@kisudoodles]

@@anansajohnson9139 omg I love that idea! I gave him a simple look because I wanted something easy to draw because this is the first long animatic I’ve done but ahhh yess him wearing more princely clothes is something I really want to draw nowww

[@kisudoodles]

@@kallandar13 ooh yes! I kinda had the idea of him being a fan of wrestling because what else are you gonna do for fun as a prince in Ancient Greece so he knows what a fight looks like but doesn’t really know how to do it properly! I also kinda messed with the idea of him being sickly as a lil dude so maybe Penelope was sorta overprotective and he was only ever a spectator for sports

[@Aphrodite_strawberry]

THIS IS GORGEOUS WHY DOESN'T HAVE MORE VIEWS

[@kallandar13]

The perfect word to describe this animatic is understated. There are lots of little subtle things that convey so much emotion and story in such a simple way. It’s absolutely wonderful, and I love it.

[@callaghan184]

This is honestly so cute! And the owl is adorable!

[@kisudoodles]

ahhh tysm! i usually make blursed stuff so it was pretty tricky trying to make something kinda serious but i really loved how sweet the song is

[@nataliegoodman4131]

I love your designs for Athena and Telemachus, they’re so cute!

[@jadendenfeld9980]

Okay I wanted to write this all out earlier but I had to run to class. So first of all I feel like my heart is going to explode. I don’t even know where to start, everything in this animatic is just so perfectly amazing. I love how at the very beginning Athena feels so disconnected and aloof in a way. She’s a god and beyond mortal boundaries. Her posture even feels just so measured, everything is a perfect showing. But then she heals Telemacus’s hand and other injuries and then when she takes off her helmet I just, my jaw just dropped. The addition of the pupils just completely changed everything about her, it immediately humanized her in a way you could easily relate to, and her posture and facial expressions felt so melancholy. Her sad smile as she sings about Odysseus and her wistfulness, it is just beautiful. And then when telemachus starts singing she's surprised(I almost see it as she is surprised that Telemecaus would want her around/the guilt with how things happened with Odysseus weighing her down) her facial expressions and body language are all unsure and hesitant. Likes she is hesitant to accept Telemachus reaching out after she abandoned his father. And then when she takes his hand she is still so hesitant but then accepting as she stands up. And then she hands over the baby owl(which is so unbelievably cute) and just watches with such a soft expression. And finally the nudge from Telemecaus just catching her off guard before she nudges back is just so beautiful. I just uggghh. I want to cry I loved it so much And I love your design for Athena with the simplicity of her clothes and hair. And the way you convey her emotions is just amazing. Her expressions are incredible, each one feels so viscerally real and impactful, the subtle changes and differences between frames just astounding. Your talent is absolutely stunning and there are not enough words in the english language for how much I loved this animatic. MY two favorite moments in this animatic are the nudges at the end which are just so beautiful, and just so humanizing for athena. But my favorite is when she takes off her helmet. Which I have to come back to. First of the all the way you managed to transform athena from Goddess of War to Athena was so beautifully done. The decision to leave her eyes blank and then add pupils after the helmet comes off was amazing. Not in any other animatic I have watched(and I’ve watched a lot) has the idea of the “Perfect” goddess been so quickly nor deeply uprooted. It's such a small change but it completely changes everything about her in just one frame. And I love just how subtle it was. Despite the fact that this song is supposed to be humanizing for her she is still a god. A being of such power that mortal can’t understand what they can do. Most other animatics I feel try to push her humanization too far, try to make her seem too human. But this subtle change feels so deep and visceral because it fits so well with Athena. She is a god she has seen how many people die and pass on. Mortals are just momentary sparks. So the way you do it with just this very slight erosion of her godly status, and her subtle relaxing of her emotional defenses is just so perfect. This animatic is one that nearly brought tears to my eyes just by how deeply I could feel and relate to the characters and what they were feeling through your drawings. And I never cry or get teary. I’m sharing this animatic everywhere I can because it is just amazing. I just love it so much.

[@kisudoodles]

@@jadendenfeld9980 omg I’m totally speechless this is truly one of the most wonderful things anyone’s ever said about my stuff 😭😭😭 I’m so glad you noticed how I tried to characterise Athena because I see her as very rigid and not one for any sort of vulnerability like even compared to the other gods she’s very guarded and emotionally distant, so her showing Telemachus her real eyes is like woah! I kinda felt like she’d be the type that kinda needs an object of focus to be affectionate like she wouldn’t give a hug but she’ll let Telemachus pet the owl and when she’s being emotionally honest she’s doing something else like emotions are too overwhelming for her! I got the vibe that Telemachus unlike ody is a bit more on her wavelength so when she gestures for him to do something he gets it because I feel Telemachus is a very sweet lil dude but he’s also direct like he just states his mind which has her like u wot mate. I kinda wanted to show that with the arm nudge like it’s very daring but also respectful of her boundaries! Anyways I keep reading ur comment over and over because it genuinely fills my heart with rainbows i don’t think ive ever read anything so thoroughly sweet and insightful like seriously

[@Ella16360]

Woah! Your art style is so pretty! Amazing job!!

I told you people would love it 💖

[@PiaPancakes]

*sees owl* Ooh look at the pretty bird! 😊 *sees Athena w/o the helmet* Ooh look at the pretty lady! 😮 On a more serious note though, I just wanna say I love how your art style and how you designed the characters. Keep up the good work. BTW: funny story, while writing my comment, I had my YT setting on autoplay so it accidentally played one of Gigi’s Epic animatics before I finished. When I pressed send it accidentally posted this comment on her video instead. I was wondering why it didn’t show up 😂
