    Yeah this follows the Odyssey so that's why the Trojan War is at the very beginning. This is the passion project of a guy named Jorge Rivera-Herrans who is also voicing Odysseus. He is still actively producing and recording the concept album in chunks called sagas, of which 7 of a planned 9 have been released so far (30 out of 40 planned songs). After a bad experience early on with a production company he has been producing independently thru his own LLC (Winion Entertainment). On that note, if you stream the music make sure for the first two sagas (Troy and Cyclops Sagas) you only listen to the newly recorded versions as the original versions of those songs only benefit the shady production company and none of the profits go to the creators. All subsequent sagas only have one version which fully belongs to Jorge. There are so many good fanmade animatics out there. It's such a great feeling to experience this for the first time.

      and yes, they will get into the killing all the suiters, but I'm not sure if he gets into the hanging of the maids, because its a very minorthing in mythologie
      and its worth to note that the greeks loved Odysseus while the romans hated him, and epic is judging him for what he does later(he is still a victum of his circumstances)

    One thing to note is that not every animatic is canon. Many are close, but some artistic liberties are taken, since we don’t know Jay’s full vision. For some things, Jay has commissioned artists to draw and animate scenes, and then put them on his various socials. There’s a very cool drawing for The Horse and The Infant, actually.
    When Athena pulls him away it’s called “Quick Thought”. They can have conversations for however long they want, when only a second has passed in the present. The clock ticking, heartbeat audio indicate a Quick Thought.
    Lots to unpack, and it’s also a lot of fun : )

    One thing you might find interesting is that each character in Epic gets their own instrument. The guitar you commented on is Odyssey's instrument, and it is acoustic or electric depending on his mood.
    Also, the creator is the one who is singing Odysseus.
    Lastly, the musical isn't fully released, there's 2 more sagas totalling 10 songs to come.

    This is definitely my one of my favorite portrayals of Odysseus, but like you said there are so many variations you can take on these characters depending on whose lens you look through. Odyssey is such a great story medium because of all the ways you can shift a lot of the characters being more heroic/villainous depending on what the authors goal of the retelling is trying to achieve

    I'm probably not the first person to explain, but JUST IN CASE I AM!
    Jorge Rivera-Herrans is working on this as a series of concept albums for *possibly* a stage play. He's made comments about what other forms this could eventually take like an animated film or a circus performance. But the general audience assumption is stage play, hopefully broadway. He's been working on this for about four years now, slowly releasing snippets of his work in progress through TikTok videos, which is also how he got a good portion of his cast: TikTok auditions!
    On Christmas of 2022, he released the first saga, The Troy Saga, for everyone's listening and proceeded to put out the Cyclops Saga not long after, but due to some disputes with the record label, there was a long break between that and the Ocean Saga, which released on Christmas of 2023. Since then, we've gotten a new saga roughly every two months (February, April, July, August) and we're just two sagas (and ten songs) away from the finale.
    Hope that answers your questions.

There are parts that are changed or entirely created for the telling of this musical.

    Hi, I love your reaction! I see you're talking about the twelve maids he hanged. While it's undoubtedly a horrific act, it's important to remember that those were different times, and those maids betrayed Penelope by siding with the suitors and even having relations with them. Throughout history, there have been far more gruesome punishments-like boiling people alive. Just something to consider. Cheers!

      @oops3828 Yep, it's the remastered one. It's harder to tell for some songs, but in this one Ody's scream when he gets 'hit' by the vision sounds more natural. Zeus also has the other Olympians backing him when he says the second "I don't think you're ready" and the biggest tell is the part where the original says "you can say goodbye to Penelope, you can say goodbye to Telemachus" instead just repeats the Penelope line twice in the remaster. Also the other Olympians are backing Zeus during the whole "he will burn your house and throne/I'll raise him as my own" segment.

    You are the best kind of reactor! Even more for like musicals, because i really love that you take the time to do commentary and all but pausing the vids, a lot of times reactors miss little details or even huge stuff because they talk over the music or dialogues, so i think it's great that you give yourself time to pause, comment whatever you want and then even go back a few seconds to really absorb the part you paused or as a precaution, so yeah, keep at it!
    Also, yes, Penelope is SO the woman! It's gonna be interesting to see more of your reactions to EPIC, also claps for the one who arranged the playlist because the last two as you saw, come as a set, the apple thing doesnt makes much sense if you watch other animatics for either of the songs and even The Horse and The Infant + Just a Man in one video is better because in this version, as declared by Jorge, the creator of Epic, the baby does get dropped so... yeah.

    Love your reaction! Hope to see more Epic from you soon. I’ll be adding facts and comments as I watch the video. :)
    - Yes, they made Odysseus cute because the animatic designs are based on the people voicing the characters, and Odysseus’ singer is very cute. He’s also the writer, composer, and director of the whole thing and he’s only 26 years old.
    -Never noticed the butterflies before, but these animatics are not quite official, and done by several different artists. You’ll see different interpretations and different running themes the more of them you watch!
    - on “switching up the style of the song… and helps with each character, giving an insight on who they are” that’s something the creator is amazing at. Each character has their own instrument, each idea has its own motif. It only gets better and better as you go deeper, and I can’t wait for you to experience it all.
    - on Athena: “She has a gorgeous design” : another commenter pointed out, she looks like you lol.
    - “Why can’t I buy tickets to Epic the Musical onstage?” We have been asking that question for so long lol. Long story short, it isn’t done cooking yet. Only 75% of the songs have been released - Jorge (the creator) is working on it. There was a hiccup with the production company that helped make the first two sagas. Everything is written, casted, and possibly recorded, but it’s still being mixed and cleaned up. Also, Jorge has said that he’s not sure it would work on a traditional Broadway stage with how big he wants certain scenes to be, but has said that it would be something more akin to a big act with more room like Cirque du Soleil.
    Loved starting this journey with you! Your commentary is lovely.

    Welcome to the journey! This is an evolving musical project with 6 out of 8 sagas currently released. The 5th saga premiered on July 4th, and the 6th saga was just released this month. I'm not sure if there are any animatics for the 6th saga yet, but we're eagerly awaiting the final two chapters.
    The mastermind behind this musical is Jorge Rivera-Herrans (pronounced in Spanish), who also voices Odysseus. Jorge shares parts of the songs on TikTok, where talented animators in the fan community create animatics based on the clips. When a new saga is released, Jorge often includes some of these fan-made animatics in his live streams. After the release, more fan animatics are made, typically following the action he outlines in his TikToks.
    Jorge began writing this musical in 2019, and it has since grown into a highly anticipated project.
    Enjoy the experience! And if you're on the playlist I think you are, you'll notice the Cyclops looks different from the typical portrayal in the first two songs of the Cyclops saga, before transitioning to a more traditional design later on.

    Did you notice that the branches of the tree form a skull? It's also growing larger and branching out while Ody is singing about how things can snowball.
    I also saw "when does the man become the monster?" As a tie in to the rest of the musical "would I be a monster for letting this child live if they grow to kill everyone I love?" Along with Zeus' line about "the blood on your hands is something you won't lose, all you can choose is whose" could be the kid or his loved ones

    In fact....at that time throwing an apple at someone was equivalent to a marriage proposal or declaration and the video animator took the small trouble to represent it at the end with Polites throwing an apple at Odysseus.....just say, and welcome to the epic!! ONE OF US!! ONE OF US!! 🎉

    Most animators have based their character designs on the real life actors. That's why some may look very modern compared to ancient greece xD

    wait til you get to the underworld, thunder, and wisdom saga. Every saga is gonna hurt. Pay attention to the instruments that play with each character. Each character has a specific instrument and they all have specific tunes/melodies that reprise as the narrative continues. Polities song open arms for example appears because he impacts Odysseus a little more here than he does in the original story :)

    Epic is more of a concept album, so it's not really on stage.
    It's actually still in development at the moment I'm writting this comment, as the last two sagas are still not officially out as of yet.
    If you want to learn more about the develpment of this musical I recoment Barbienronpa's video on the musical, but take into consideration she talks about it up until the underworld saga, so there are MAYOR spoilers...which is why I recoment watching it after you cathed up with the content.
    On a different note, the Epic community is actually very fun from what I've expirienced, so you'll have a blast on it, specially with the animatics!

  • @felixhenson9926
    @felixhenson9926 2 месяца назад +1

    Yeah so you mentioned hearing an electric guitar. Every main character in this has their own instrument so you can hear in the composition who's there even if they're unseen or not singing. Odysseus' is the guitar, which kind of guitar rly depends on the tone of the song. Athena's is the piano. Eurylochus' is the ship's crew. Also you mentioned choirs; only gods can summon backing vocals that are non-diegetic versus mortals require there to be actual ppl there to sing the parts e.g. on the ship there's lots of backing singers bc there's the whole ship's crew whereas there's nothing in Just A Man except Odysseus.
