When it comes to the designs, most of the characters were based of the actual singers. It's something the community decided to do. Some animatic design choices came from Jorges own Interpretations that he mentioned in his TikToks. Jorge also adores the animatics and later decided to use some in his promotional material. Also yes Jorge is both writer and the singer of Odysseus.

Important to note that the animators aren’t always collaborating. The animatics are based on the songs, the original mythology, the animator’s interpretation, and the information Jorge gave about his process of making it. They are not necessarily “cannon” One of the details animators keep in mind a lot is how all vocals are diegetic. And are always from actual people (mostly the soldiers) except in the presence of a god cause they can just summon their own backing vocals/chorus.
@altarudragonspirit4016
Ай бұрын
10:41 Important thing to note here: whenever a mortal character (like Oddyseus) is singing, any background vocals are being sung in-universe by people in the background, and whenever a god is singing (like Zeus in 'The Horse and the Infant'), the background vocals are being generated by them; also, each character has a signature instrument that plays whenever they are singing in the musical, and there are *many* recurring motifs throughout 17:25 Just gonna state for the record because this has been a thing before, Mirxi's name is pronounced 'Mirchi' 31:14 Neat thing in 'Warrior of the Mind': When Athena first sings the 'Warrior of the Mind' lyric, she ends it by holding the note, but when Oddyseus joins in, he ends the line in a run, and the second time they sing it together, they both end the line in a run; and when she sings it one last time at the end of the song, she sings it alone and still ends on a run, showing that Oddy's attitude was starting to rub off on her :) 39:27 This beginning part of the song features a pretty infamous recurring theme in the musical known as 'The Danger Motif'. a lot of people had a hard time trying to find where it was used, but this is the first instance of it 48:04 Not Poseidon (yet).

Well, it might be the first repetition of the danger motif, but it first actually appeared in the horse and the infant, during the war scene when everyone is fighting.

There's two different accounts about who threw Astyanax from the battlements - Pausanius says he was thrown by Neoptolemus (son of Achilles) while "illiou persis" aka "The Sack of Troy" (author unknown) says it was Odysseus who did it. Either way, his fate was debated by the Greek war council, and the threat of him becoming an avenging son was what ultimately led to the infant being thrown. Edit to Add: Interestingly, the two accounts about the death of the son of Hector are only found in those two poems, which were written after Homer's Illiad. Technically that makes those accounts in-Era fanfiction... take that how you will.

Whenever a god sings they can summon back up vocalists to sing with them since they are so powerful, however whenever a human character sings whenever there are back up vocals other beings has to be there with them.

Anyways you know I love your content and Ive been asking for this for months so thank you SO much. If you wish to split up your watchs to saga then the cyclopse saga has one more song, the next one. The next one is the ocean saga with 4 songs, then the circe saga with 4 more, then the underworld with 3, and finally the newest saga/thunder saga has 5. I think there 3 more sagas that have yet to be released :) [also the cyclopse saga and the troy saga were recently remastered to if you decide to listen to this in your free time please listen to thise instead as the orginals were not giveing the creators his royalties] when your cuahht up I truely reccmend chrcking out the creator/odyseus as he is AMAZING and funny and has but so much thought and detail into his songs that I cant even fit here and just trust me when I say there is so much beneath the surface to the music, its truely genuis. Thanks once again for finally watching epic, cant wsit for more!!!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 🐎 👁 🌊 🐖 👶 ⚡️

For your own playlist purposes: Please listen to the new versions of the songs in the Cyclops and Troy Sagas! Due to a issue with the publishing company for the first two, Jorge is not getting any money from streams of the original versions. So recently he remade them in person with everyone from the cast.

Mircsy's design of Polyphemus takes aspects of Poseidon's creations and combines them. A tentacled face like a sea creature, and hooves of a horse. (I commented this before you mentioned it. It went over my head until I read about the reason, so my dumb brain assumed most people wouldn't know.)

14:50 Fun fact, Most of the characters are designed after their voice actor! So Odysseus looks like Jorge! Polites looks like Steven Dookie who also wears glasses. Every character has their own instrument too. Odysseus has an acoustic guitar and an electric guitar, Athena has a piano, not sure what Polites instrument is though. Eurylochus stands out though because he has the crew backing him up. 47:53 Those are actually other cylopses. Polyphemus doesn't pray to Posidon until after Odysseus and his men leave

It is very reminiscent of Peter and The Wolf with how Jorge uses specific instruments to identify certain characters and it is reminiscent of Lin Manuel Miranda's work (Hamilton, Encanto, Etc...) as well with the pacing and sound! It truly is a masterpiece and it isnt even finished yet! Jorge is truly a genius.

Acutally Polyphemus ate six of oddyseus’ men in the cave. And those eyes were other cyclops who came check on Polyphemus, oddyseus giving his name as ‘nobody’ meant that Ployphemus said ‘nobody hurt me’ as in he wasn’t hurt, not that ‘nobody’ hurt him. I will say that depending on which animatic you watch, you will get different interpretations or little details on the characters. I believe the next one after this, Goodbye will be one such one. I’d give a watch to more of the animatics form different artists in your free time.

LIGHT THE TORCHES WINIONS, WE FOUND A WINION IN THE MAKING! Edit: Oh right! I forgot, what you're listening currently is the old version of Troy Saga and Cyclops Saga, during the new releasat of ACT 2 Thunder Saga, Mr. Jalapeno released a new version of both Troy and Cyclops Saga, the animators are currently, maybe in the process of replacing the music on their animatics, so all we can do is wait patiently.

Yeah, the thing to keep in mind with this adaptation is that the original epic written by Homer was in general a cautionary tale about why you don't wanna piss off the gods while the musical is focused less on the gods and more on the crew's perspective of the odyssey.

About the musical itself, the entire thing is divided into 9 sagas, each saga is about 4 or 5 songs each. You've watched the first 2 sagas - the Troy saga and the Cyclops saga (except the last song of the Cyclops saga - my goodbye). The rest of the sagas are: the ocean saga, the circe sagae, the underworld saga (end of act 1), the thunder saga, the wisdom saga, the vengeance saga and the Ithaca saga. And because this musical comes out in sagas and the last 3 sagas are not out yet, the musical and the playlist that you're watching from are not the full musical Also, I've looked at the playlist that you're watching from and I highly recommend watching Anniflamma's animatic of ruthlessness instead of Gigi's (as much as amazing that is, Anni's better in this one)
@saddlebag

@@amitlvn9224 Both Ruthlessness animatics are great, but Gigi’s works better flow wise from one song to the next (which is ideal for a first introduction). It’d be cool if Airier went back to check out some alternate animatics after, but this is why it is the way it is.

I don't know if it's what was intended, but the apple being involved with Warrior of the Mind, and Athena holding it at the end, reminds me of the Apple of Discord that originally (arguably) caused the Trojan war. Athena was one of the three goddesses who claimed it, and she was NOT the one who won. So it symbolically puts even more weight on "Don't dissappoint me."
@amidahime

I haven’t seen anyone say it, but the apple could also be a reference to how Athena tried to get the golden apple alongside Hera and Aphrodite, but the apple went to Aphrodite as she promised to give Helen of Troy to the guy who had to give the apples to any of the three Goddess, declaring the one who had it be the “most beautiful Goddess” ever. If memory serves me right

Adoring watching your reactions- most people who listen to Epic aren't super familiar with the story of the Odyssey, so it's super cool to see someone who knows the story of it already! (Edit: Listening to some of the comments you made about mythology, whenever you get to the song "Ruthlessness" I highly recommend checking out AnniFlamma's animatic! I believe in the playlist you're using they include a different one, but there's something you were excited to see during one of the songs that is showcased a lot in Anni's version that might be a fun bonus for someone who knows their way around Greek mythology.)
