Mutiny | EPIC: The Musical Animatic 

i love the little "they killed my cow" joke at the end as that's literally what helios did in the book, he went straight to zeus and threatened to go to the underworld and turn off earth's sun if he didn't do something about odysseus and his crew, sulking just like the lil endcard joke

The idea that helios' statue moved to look at whoever slaughtered his cattle is so cool and would probably terrify the other person like imagine doing something that would offend a god that isnt there and then you see their statue turn to look at you with glowing eyes and anger when before it was calm and happy.

Oh I like how friendly the cows are, really shows how protected they are, they didn't have any predators not having to worry about humans killing them

I like the idea that Eurylochus potentially never really wanted to kill Odysseus even after everything

"How are we supposed to trust you now?"- My brother in Zeus, Odysseus can't even trust you to fetch water without putting the entire crew's life at risk.

Eurylochus is the biggest "Bros Before Hoes" extremist I've ever met. But fr I love how at the end, when Eurylochus says "...Captain?", he appears to look actually confused, like he just broke out of whatever trance had compelled him to slaughter the cow, and is finally beginning to use reason to understand the magnitude of what he did.

Unpopular opinion: Epic should become an animated musical series rather than an on stage musical cause there’s SO MUCH more you could do with animation as seen in all these animatics the fan base makes

i like that you showed how Odysseus escaped from his bonds, and how the statue of the sun god reacted to the killing of one of his cows. i also liked seeing the bandages that Eurylochus has too. great job 👍

Odysseus waking up be like: "🐮hi. you got any games on your phone."

dawg the way that Eurylochus towers over Odysseus feels so reminiscent to the battle with Polyphemus... the way odysseus says "my brothers, why?" is so ironic, considering he'd just sacrificed six of them, and the Ithacan crew themselves seemed so aware of this 😭 beautiful art style

This is exactly what I wanted in an animatic of this scene. Specifically, the beginning with Euro's facial expressions. The maddened smile as he tries so hard to be gaslit because the truth is disturbing on so many levels

1:09 - The colored eyes makes Odysseus look like a monster. Very appropriate.

OUGHH the conflict in Eurylochus's expressions, Odysseus smiling nervously and begging him to stop, BREAKING THE BONDS AS THE COW DIES?!! This is so good!!!!

The way you can see Eurylochus struggling to hold on to his convictions while Odysseus begs him not to kill the cow is absolutely heartbreaking! Bravo!

The camera sweep when Eury kills the cow is so good. and I love the color changes when they kill the cow and when Zeus arrives

Ooooh love that part where Eurylochus was basically begging, "pls ody, tell me i'm wrong and there was something to your plan. that you didnt do this on purpose."

"Brothers... why?" _THE AUDACITY_ 😤

I just loved the fact Odysseus woke up to a cow in his face. That made me laugh while also perfectly showing what Eurylochus meant by “bursting with cows.”

YES SOMEONE REMEMBERED THE DETAIL OF ODY BEING TIED TO THE STATUE! I LOVE THE LITTLE DETAILS FROM THE STREAM YES THE FACT THAT HE USES THE ROCK BEHIND HIM TO FREE HIMSELF THATS GENIUS OMG

You killed my COW My favorite COW

Dude... The way Apollo's statue stared at them as they rowed away was my fave part holy shit

You deserve a medal. I absolutely loved the fight scene, the almost feral look in Odysseus’s eyes while they fight, how the color changed when the cow got killed, and that camera sweep? Yes!! Also, was not expecting the statue to look at them!! That was an excellent scary touch. 10/10, well done. Genuinely.

Eurylochus and Odysseus each smiling while begging the other not to do what they're about to has my heart breaking. Also, that steady darkening of the screen is chilling.

I’ve always thought that Eurylochus knew what he was doing was suicide, and Odysseus’ fear for them all gets him moving again however briefly, but it burns out quickly through Thunder Bringer. Hunger for rest is so heavy

I love eurylocus' facial expressions so much! Especially in the first part. Its exactly how i imagined he'd look. So good!

Wait...? Eurylochus acually calls Odysseus "Ody"? How could I not have realized? I love it

It should be CRIMINAL for this to be so good omggggg. The emotions I could FEEL bro this is so well done

The way you portray Eury’s conflicting feelings as the chorus battles with Odysseus to reconsider is so well done 😭 I always imagine him teetering back and forth deciding whether to go through with it. In my mind, when Eurylochus hears Ody change “I need to” to “we need to” he fully considers that he wants to be selfish just as Odysseus is for his own means, hence why he’s just a man as well. Lovely animatic ❤🥹

Incredible work!!! I love how you showed Eurylochus bandaged up from their fight, Odysseus trying to escape his bonds on his own, the emotion in both their faces as Ody begs Eurylochus not to kill the cow while he visibly turns away and tries to block him out! And holy shit, the statue of Helios’s head turning and his eyes opening was a jumpscare, like I felt actual dread in my heart when that happened. PERFECT way to show that his presence was always there, but with this terrible act he’s now there in the flesh ready to witness justice being dealt. (Also love Helios’ design, and your cow design was so cute, so thanks for making me extra sad about it’s death 😭)

i love how you draw eurylocus, there's so much emotion in him and his movements, and him being so much taller/larger than odysseus really drills in odysseus' "just a man" motif, eurylocus is the personification of the crew and that's what screws them over in the end is his impulsive behavior and your art shows that so beautifully!! never stop, this is so incredible!! and the color change at the end!!! so much love

There’s so much amazing about this animatic but my favorite thing has to be the fluffy cows.

I love how skilled you portrayed Odysseus in the fight, not even one hit touch him until the stab in the back

That detail at the end of the clouds turning yellow with the picture of the album was a nice touch, I was searching the animation for that song and this one was what I wanted to see! Well done!

I loved the action shots and all of the characters' expressions, you can just see the desperation in Eurylochus when he's begging Odysseus to tell him that he didn't plan for the deaths, that he truly didn't want to believe it. I also liked how you made it immediately after Scylla

The moving Helios' statue has the bloodcurdling vibes Delilah Cooperspoon's moving statues have. Those creep one out, KUDOS Also the facial expressions are exquisite🧐🤌

3:16 i love this part, that such an ody thing to do, trying to escape while talking xD. i was trying to visualize how he escapes during the live and this makes sooo much sense

Odysseus and Eurylochus singing each others parts make me cry so hard, this was beautifully done.

I have been WAITING for a full mutiny animatic and after seeing this, I know it was well worth it!

The genuine fear in his voice in the "Eurylocus, no!!!" And a mixture of fear and anger in the "WHO DO YOU THINK HE'LL SEND!?!?"

I love how Eurylochus goes from wanting to kill ody to acting like best buds right after

My heart. The reflection, the parallels the pouty Sun god XD

OMG THIS AWESOME- Eurylocus’s facial expressions when he confronts Odysseus, then after the crew attacks Odysseus in turn, Eurylocus is standing in front bc he’s the voice of the crew - and his face when he looks back at Odysseus and calls him “Ody” T_T AUUUGH MY HEART- that split screen where Eurylocus gives into his hunger and is about to kill the cow… And then snapping out of his trance right after he kills the cow, and the statue???? That’s so cool!!

Dude, your characters are so expressive and emotional, it’s awesome! Eurylochus and his first monologue/questions to Odysseus were beautiful. Awesome job!

This is amazing! I love starting on the damaged and bloodsoaked ship and Helio’s statute turning to look at them! Thanks for making and posting this!

This was so good. I REALLY loved how you portrayed the conflict and broken bonds between Eury and Ody. Also, fantastic job with the colors! 💖

This really helps my understanding of the song better as I was so confused as to what happened after he was stabbed. Also I loved how you drew all the characters

I absolutely love the detail of everything getting darker the moment the cow is killed Right when Eurilycus killed it the sun vanished

THIS IS SO GOOOD!!! I love your expressions on Eurylochus!! And I REAALY love the moment where the statue of Helios looks at the crew thats so thrilling!!

The emotion in their voices… it breaks my heart

Artists really do speedruns the moment new music drops, legendary. you did so great!

"I CAN'T" There's tears in his eyes 😭 those details got me frfr

THIS IS AMAZING!! The emotions from the characters, the set design of the statue moving, the camera panning around Eurylochus as he is surrounded by conflicting voices.. Such an awesome animatic!!! 🔥

I don't know if this was intentional, but at the beginning, when Eurylochus stands in front of the mast, it almost looks like he is attached to puppet strings. Like he's realizing he's not seen as a partner, but just another pawn in Odysseyus's game.

i didn't notice he still uses 'ody' to mention him, he still view him as a friend

The ending is so funny to me, but this was overall one of the best animatics for this song yet

you got across their emotions so well!! also your Apollo statue is beautiful, I love the way it turns to them at 4:32

Helios: Dad, they killed one of my favorite cows, can you go do something about it? Zeus: Oh boy, have I been waiting to straighten this shit out, and in SONG!

OHHHH THIS ANIMATIC IS GENUINELY SO GOOOD the desperation on all of their faces and the absolute gravity of the situation that you can just Feel through the screen, absolutely beautiful

The fact you made him in a physical body but also a cloud body show how much more scarry zeus can be and he litelry controle both lighting way❤ i love the idea and movement behind it, also love fact that Zeu litelry try to kill Ody at some point

this is unbelievably gorgeous. that sword fight!!! their expressions!!!! i absolutely LOVE this, and the colors changing for zeus!!!! and i GASPED aloud when the statue turned to look at odysseus. so so incredible

Oh this is awesomeee, love the Helios (just red the description- the *Apollo*) design! And you ALSO imagined they tied Ody up! Very cool, same thought

I love Perimedes voice, it’s so soothing 🥰

I absolutly love the way you staged the second half of this the split screen of both men doing what they must to survive, the statue turning to gaze at those who angered him, the fact THE SUN LITERALLY GOES AWAY IN THAT MOMENT CAUSE ITS THE FUCKING SUN GOD OF CORSE IT WOULD. Oh and lets not forget THE COWS BEING SO INNOCENT AND UNAFRIAD *LIKE AN INFANT WOULD BE* so you give Eurylochus his just a man moment a bigger build up. Hell even the parts that were referenced with the animation in the livestream are not a 1 to 1 but rather rephrasings. Every song seems to have the one animation thats considered *the* animation. and this is THE mutiny animation!

Byeeee, this is perfect, Odysseus eyes at the beginning are such a great detail, it's amazing. The cow is so cuteeee i love it The emotions are so clear in their faces and expressions, I am amazed. Also, I LOVE your Apollo design and how threatening he looks when he turns to see Ody, this is just great in so many ways

The subtitles saying ‘just a normal cow’ is amazing :3

I absolutely adore this! The designs fotr odysseous and Eurylychus are amazing, I love their expressinons, they're extremely on point! I love the backgrounds as well, the blood spattered on the damaged ship, and the way the crew reacts to the whole thing with euryclychus and odyssous. I love your design for apollo, and his cows. Bandaged Eurylychus and oyddsseous breaking out of his bonds are amazing details! Thank you for making it.

AGHHH ALL THE LITTLE DETAILS IN THIS ARE JUST AMAZING!!! YOU HAVE CAPTURED IT PERFECTLY ✨️✨️

I love how the ending shot resembles the thunder saga cover art, great touch

I've been looking for a Mutiny animatic for ages! And your work really delivers. The emotions are so well portrayed, I love your design for the Sun god and how the statue reacted also, the cow was so cute, the poor thing lol

ohhh my god this is so good and intense and overall just fantastic also, i'm in love with the color scheme you chose

Once again, one of the first animatics I've seen of this song, definitely my favorite one so far! I especially love the sword fight

I love how sad Perimedes look after stabbing Odysseus.

OMGGGGGGGG THIS IS SOOO GOOOODDD!! The statue reacted! the camera turns, the lighting, how Odysseus frees himself to make sense of how they get to the ship! LIGHTING AGAIN! The all-golden ending is a chefs kiss! even the cow haha, you helped to raise the emotions of a song that was quite loaded in itself

Great Work! Love your design decisions, especially on the island.

0:35 I like how you actually made him appear as if he was going crazy for a moment. It looks believable. 0:3

YESS!!! THIS IS SO AMAZING!! AND IT'S THE WHOLE SONG?!! You did a great job, i LOVE it it's my favourite animatic so far 💖💖💖

A little off topic, but I love how the first epic animatic you posted was introducing Eurylocus (full speed ahead), and the next one (this) was his betrayal

I can see the effort put into each frame of this and it's amazing. This song feels like one of the more difficult ones to animate but you pulled it off beutifully

I mean lets be honest... eurolchyus opening the bag killed hundreds... odyessus knowingly sacrificed 6 men after finding out the betrayal.. I honestly think the high and mighty eurolychus needs a mirror xD

Breaks my heart, they are all so tired and hurt.

This is EXACTLY how i pictired this song you executed all of it Beautifully!! The sword strikes and fighting were marvelous!! Tbh the cow was so cute i was rlly sad when they murdered him, I can see where helios was coming from :/ ( 2:23 the cow jumpscare lol) Also the STATUE TURNING TO LOOK AT THEM was P e a k ok but the ending matching the sagas cover art just doxixhsbnwkwiehd yALL NEED TO STOP BEING SO TALENTED I cannot express with words how much joy this gave me but this is my attempt at trying ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

Literally searched for an animatic of this song yesterday and found nothing. I accidentally stumbled upon your video and was very satisfied. Great work!

[ sigh ] Without the bag, there was no escaping Posiedon long. Posiedon would've come after them immediately. And given how he took out a good 500 something men in one go, leaving 43 alive--and that was an example of Toying around. Yeah. Its not a nice choice, but if going through a monster's lair meant safety, even at the cost of 6? Its a horrible choice, but its a majority rules choice. He argued that they should've faced her? ... In her own lair and element? She would've eaten all of them. Most of them would've probably drowned through lack of light and stepping off the ship by accident. The ship would've been destroyed and then that would've been it. ( And if you know your myths, then its either Scylla or Charybdis--and you wouldn't have the choice of a ship to Charybdis ) Eurylochus seems to keep thinking that they're still in the Trojan War. And while such a mindset is understandable, given that Troy lasted 10 years... You're not in Troy anymore. There is no facing the monster here. No mercy. No chance to avoid sacrifice. and Sure as Hell, no Raiding the enemy Camp. You ask your captain to work with you, and yet, you prove time and time again how you won't do the same. ... is it any wonder it ended as badly as it did, when Odysseus went "Fine. I'll look after myself then." Besides, it was a false choice anyway. Even if Odysseus had sacrificed himself, the Boat would've still been destroyed, and the crew stranded until they killed and ate another cow--and that would've been the end of it.

I have been waiting for someone to do the whole song omg amazing thank you- now o need a full Different Beast lol

This is so good, I especially love her you did The lighting

You did this in 8 days?😱😱😱 this is amazing. The emotions in eurylochus’s face, especially during the cow scene were soo good. Love this!

Those cows look so cute! I want to hug them!!

I was literally just looking for this song animated an hour ago Thank you 😭

Very underrated! I love your design for Helios!

What an amazing animatic, especially in such a short time! I really enjoyed the colors and character acting, as well as dynamism of the actions. Thank you for your incredible work, it allowed me to relive this fantastic song

I’m in love with the idea that the statue was a little watchmen the chills I got when it turned in the end 😮

Stunning emotion!!!!! With expressions, movements, and color!!

Amazing animatic, but can we appreciate the pouty helios chibi at the end? He's so cute!

good job being the first full mutiny animatic! i loved the split shot of odysseus and eurylochus as well as the color change when the thunderclap happened

Helius is so cute!

Random crewman: “I say mutiny.” Odysseus: “Did you just say I had cute knees?” Random crewman: “No. I said MUTINY!” Odysseus: “Oh. That’s MUCH worst!”

I love that the sun stops shining. Awesome detail

I really love your expressions and use of color :)

Bro this is so sick! Your artstyle is so cool, I wish I could draw like you.reminder to not give up! Hope you have a great art journey :)

I really like your design for Apollo in the statue
