Something very similar happened in my most recent session, an already threatening enemy rolled 5 nat 20s in just seven rolls. Critting on 5 attacks in a row. (Two had advantage)
I love how you can almost feel bad for Polyphemus as he’s getting absolutely jumped by everyone one moment only to have him become an absolute nightmare the next. Awesome work!
The Druids and the vines, the dramatic flourish of the blade, and the mix of magics are all so beautiful. This makes a BBEG fight feel so real, the raw emotion is so cool
god, you actually animating where he got the club from adds so much to be honest. cause |I noticed many just have him randomly holding it. but him on his knees being overwhelmed, only to notice the tree and ripping it from the ground in a desperate attempt to get a weapon to defend himself, is honestly so cool. honestly this whole battle was awsome.
This was incredible. The level of choreography and sense of motion here is amazing, everything felt so fast and fluid, even the camera movements were great. I love how the whole squad doesn't just attack carelessly in turns but continuously holds him down and keeps him pinned so he can barely move with combo moves, it makes them actually look intelligent and competent. That they actually hurt the cyclops too is something that I love here too, as I think the fact that he's near defeat in the song before he manages to get one good lucky shot is too often overlooked. The cyclops being all wounded and bloody to the point that he's clearly in pain and has been "hurt enough" is wonderful, yet you also see some cleverness on his side as he uses the tree as a surprise weapon to get just a little more range and break their perimeter. And the emotion on the tiefling's face as he's running away, so painful. Amazing work!
I loved this! I feel so bad for the teifling and their friend, they had to watch their other friends die and suffer from their BBEG, this was such a cool animatic!
this is SO rad, and those motion shots when they’re circling the cyclops and twisting up the arm are impeccable, attack on titan levels of beautiful battle sequences
This has got to be my favourite Survive animatic by far, the fight animations are so smooth AAAAAA We don't have enough animations of the cyclops saga and you have done a service to this community, honestly would show this to friends to fill in for the lack of Cyclops saga animatics even though its not Odysseus (Not that the other animatics aren't good but this is on another level jeez)
So goddamn underrated. Like seriously. Only 17k views? This is my favorite animatic from all the ones i've seen on any song from EPIC The Musical. And it's not even ABOUT the actual greek Myth. Such an awesome animatic, genius choreography, can't wait for more stuff in the future!!!!!!!
This has probably been said a bunch in this fandom but this was freakin' Epic. I am so envious of every frame here. I love your art style I love the perspective lines I love the way you managed the camera shake when *that* part of the song came around! I love how you really conveyed this as a large scale battle between all these different groups and the cyclops! I love how everyone was doing something in the fight! And those little touches with the facial expressions of the captain? I just... Everything about this video is something I wanna be. You should be proud. This is awesome
there are so many compliments I can give this, but my favorite part of this piece is just how great you nailed the scale of the cyclops. he feels so massive, towering over everything in sight, you can almost FEEL the weight of his actions. and when he gets the tree from the ground, when he just goes through them all and starts approaching the protagonist and his friend, you believe him when he says "600 lives ill take, 600 lives i'll break". and him passing out feels so much more akin to just adrenaline waring off. they did enough to best him, but anything less and they was as good as dead. and the way he used that club felt so much like how we would just use a slipper to just crush ants. shout out to my guy who saw him on the ground and thought "fuck it" and threw a boulder at him tho. even the cyclops wasn't gonna let that disrespect slide. and shout out to the winged fellow who levi'd his ass, just love that part
the choreography and cinnamon topography is exceptional, i can really tell you've put a lot of practice into your craft, and its really paid off! youve got such a great grasp on posing and motion and communicate that spectacularly despite the innate limitations of the animatic format. A+! please take this gold star sticker
SIIIIGH I wish I had the motivation and patience to make something like this for my table, the best I have is a messy animatic of the "who broke it" skit
This right here is an amazing animation, even if simplified. Really captures the emotions. I love the attention to detail, you can see every single injury they caused at the very end, especially the swirling blade marks down his arm. Also the 'club' looks like a tree first strike, then less like a tree with every strike as the roots are smacked off. For such a basic and simple animation style this is VERY clean and pays attention to detail. Well done, loved this!! I listen/watch this multiple times a day :)
*117th like* Wow, just wow.. This just visually Spectacular, *Especially* when he was walking towards them in the end. I haven’t seen anyone interpret those final sounds as steps before but they ended up fitting SOO F#CKING WELL!!! And the fluid movement as he wobbled was incredible [:
I love this! The choreography and character designs are absolutely amazing, I don't even know much about them but their expressions are awesome. The way they react to the whole thing, the polyphemus stand in and the adventurers is amazing! Thank you for making it.
This was so cool! I liked seeing the soldiers(?) using magic to work together against the Cyclops. I definitely want to know more about these characters!
I have watched a *lot* of Epic: The Musical animatics, and this one has some of the best shot composition of them all. Every single shot is dynamic and engaging, and you can so easily follow the pace of the action. Excellent work!
Interestingly enough , I have a character who is a wizard, rune knight, who can enlarge himself once with hhis giant's might ability and again with enlarge/reduce, making him huge in just two actions. On top of that, I based his appearance off of Ancient Greece, with a toga, shorts, sandals, etc. which fits even better with the song
Hi there, the other italian gaia here who commented on ur ruthlessness video. Imma follow u just cause u have my same name, u r italian and also god awfully good at animation!!! Really, how tf do u even do it? It's fanstasticoso. ALSO. L'ultimo video che hai postato mi ha ucciso. Adorabile. I was giggling the whole time eheheheheh. I'll lend u my support just cause i've taken a liking in u
I mean this is obviously not an animatic for epic but HOLLY MOLLY, THAT WAS AWESOME 🤩🤩🤯🤯❤️❤️❤️ specially bc there arent a lot of animatics for survive and yours is just top notch 👌👌 the action sequences are incredible and that last shot that showed the bodies and the crying was heartbreaking, it looks like a movie
2:11 the moment the party starts rolling nothing above a 5 but the boss rolls like three Nat 20's in a row
That's me every single DnD session 😭
Something very similar happened in my most recent session, an already threatening enemy rolled 5 nat 20s in just seven rolls. Critting on 5 attacks in a row. (Two had advantage)
THERE AIN'T NO WAY. NOOOO. NOOOOOOOOO. YOU MEAN TO TELL ME... OHHH NAUURRR
Local Goblin Tribe when solo adventurer appears :
I love how you can almost feel bad for Polyphemus as he’s getting absolutely jumped by everyone one moment only to have him become an absolute nightmare the next.
Awesome work!
Don’t kill a mans sheep
The dnd instead of Greek myth is actually a cool way to think of it
I'm imagining that the tiefling was secretly a bard and he's hiding his bardic inspirations with this sick song 😂
When it turns out the boss you owning had a second phase :(
The Druids and the vines, the dramatic flourish of the blade, and the mix of magics are all so beautiful. This makes a BBEG fight feel so real, the raw emotion is so cool
I also played a soulknife rogue, but I never thought to use my psychic blades for inspiring flourishes like that.
Awesome stuff
Also love how at 2:59 you turned the sound of the club slamming down into the sound of the cyclop's footsteps. Clever!
Love tiny details like that!
god, you actually animating where he got the club from adds so much to be honest. cause |I noticed many just have him randomly holding it. but him on his knees being overwhelmed, only to notice the tree and ripping it from the ground in a desperate attempt to get a weapon to defend himself, is honestly so cool. honestly this whole battle was awsome.
You can see the exact moment when the adrenaline hit him
As soon as his eye was targeted he went into “f*ck it, we ball” mode
Must have rolled a critical hit- poor boy
I love this little tiefling. I dont know who they are or what their deal is but they seem to be going through it
This was incredible. The level of choreography and sense of motion here is amazing, everything felt so fast and fluid, even the camera movements were great.

And the emotion on the tiefling's face as he's running away, so painful.
Amazing work!
The sad look the tiefling gives with "our journeys over" is so gutting oh my god.
Bro rolled nat 20 on persuasion check
3:00 That moment when all those damage over time effects save the team.
I haven’t seen anyone choreograph the soldiers as well as this! Incredible
I loved this! I feel so bad for the teifling and their friend, they had to watch their other friends die and suffer from their BBEG, this was such a cool animatic!
this is SO rad, and those motion shots when they’re circling the cyclops and twisting up the arm are impeccable, attack on titan levels of beautiful battle sequences
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME YOU'RE GONNA DO REMEMBER THEM AFTER THIS, I NEED MORE AND I AM SO SPEECHLESS AT THIS OMG 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
We’re gonna hard on Dungeon&Dragons on this one!
With only two videos i am incredibly invested in this Smol Tiefling's story.
I must know more
This has got to be my favourite Survive animatic by far, the fight animations are so smooth AAAAAA
We don't have enough animations of the cyclops saga and you have done a service to this community, honestly would show this to friends to fill in for the lack of Cyclops saga animatics even though its not Odysseus
(Not that the other animatics aren't good but this is on another level jeez)
This is amazing! I love how you animated him using the stump club, and the bit of breathing you put at the end really added to it. Great job!
So goddamn underrated. Like seriously. Only 17k views? This is my favorite animatic from all the ones i've seen on any song from EPIC The Musical. And it's not even ABOUT the actual greek Myth. Such an awesome animatic, genius choreography, can't wait for more stuff in the future!!!!!!!

also there teamwork was on POINT!

shout out to my guy who saw him on the ground and thought "fuck it" and threw a boulder at him tho. even the cyclops wasn't gonna let that disrespect slide. and shout out to the winged fellow who levi'd his ass, just love that part

Those clubbings bout to give somebody ptsd
* hears drumbeat * "its all coming back..."
Well Ruthlessness is mercy upon ones self, so...
Ok I gotta admit the fight segment 1:08 to 1:59 the animation in particular is truly amazing.
im speechless! the amazingingly fluid action, the story of the battle, the dynamic camera angles, the creative use of spells, this is awesome!!!!! ❤❤❤
SIIIIGH I wish I had the motivation and patience to make something like this for my table, the best I have is a messy animatic of the "who broke it" skit
Can we appreciate how much of a masterpiece this is
This right here is an amazing animation, even if simplified. Really captures the emotions.

The way you made him fall was amazing! I haven't seen that before! And the tree as a club! INSPIRED!!!!
nice feeling of depth perspective , its really showing how of a giant the cyclop is 10/10 well done
*117th like*
Wow, just wow..
This just visually Spectacular, *Especially* when he was walking towards them in the end. I haven’t seen anyone interpret those final sounds as steps before but they ended up fitting SOO F#CKING WELL!!! And the fluid movement as he wobbled was incredible
[:
Wow, you can really see the weight of the cyclops when it falls.
I love this! The choreography and character designs are absolutely amazing, I don't even know much about them but their expressions are awesome. The way they react to the whole thing, the polyphemus stand in and the adventurers is amazing! Thank you for making it.
Thank you and everyone else for watching it and leaving such kind comments! 💛
This was so cool! I liked seeing the soldiers(?) using magic to work together against the Cyclops. I definitely want to know more about these characters!
Gods-dam… this is absolutely f#cking amazing. I have no words… other than: BRAVO WITH THE PAM PAM PANCAKES
Mixing 2 things i love, Dnd and ETM, This looks really sick, hope to get like this later on
Oh it’s well and truly escaped containment now lol
Fighting a dark souls boss in a nutshell
WOAAAAH IT WAS SO COOL!!!
I have watched a *lot* of Epic: The Musical animatics, and this one has some of the best shot composition of them all. Every single shot is dynamic and engaging, and you can so easily follow the pace of the action. Excellent work!
The nexts animatics could be Circe, Scylla and Mutiny.
OH MY GOD HOW DID YOU DO THIS SO WELL???
also love how even though it's technically not Epic the death of Polites still hits
Man the wet smack is so visceral every time I here the song
THIS IS SO GOOD OH MY GOD
IT'S SOOOO GOOD, THE WHOLE BATTLE SEQUENCE IS JUST *chefs kiss*
This has the best action for the fight scene I've seen of the animatics
So it just cannon that you must do a Levi attack at "PUSH BY!"?
idk how i stumbled upon this but im glad as hell i did oh my god
Omg! The facial expressions are so good!
If you had a rune knight fighter or a path of the giant barbarian, it would be way easier. A boxing match between titans
Interestingly enough , I have a character who is a wizard, rune knight, who can enlarge himself once with hhis giant's might ability and again with enlarge/reduce, making him huge in just two actions. On top of that, I based his appearance off of Ancient Greece, with a toga, shorts, sandals, etc. which fits even better with the song
the energy you bring to this topic is infectious! ️
Next level of jumping
THIS IS LITTERALLY SO GOOD WHAT THE HELL
This is good
SO SMOOTH!
Your talent is insane.. This is a full fledged masterpiece 💙
Loving every single bit of this animation. Great job!
1:45 = levi ackerman vs zeke moment
This song and this animation! Chefs kiss
This is nothing short of *Amazing*
Oh. Did you run from your studio? That is fantastic. Like. I want a cartoon with your work❤

This was amazing!!!!❤
Amazing work.
Very cool!!!
Absolutely fire!
This is insanely well done! Its so intense and the subtle expressions and changes are so good
Glorious…
This is so good!
This is such a fun and intense take on the fight, I love how hard the tone swung on this (But not as hard as the cyclops did)
