I remember seeing an animatic where Odysseus grabs Polites bandanna after his death, I loved the concept of him wearing it as a little memory of Polites. So I was thinking about it and in Monster when he decides to "become the monster" he takes the bandanna off. Debatable if he keeps it or leaves it in the Underworld for the symbolism of him leaving his morals behind.
I usually don't post singing stuff on here but I thought screw it, why not?
So for those interested, here's a little part from No Longer You I recorded last weekend because that song has me in a chokehold since I first discovered it :)
Since I do not have access to my drawing tablet for the time being (I'm on holiday overseas), I made a Picrew (in like 5 mins forgive me) of Odysseus in the Underworld saga, in honour of it releasing a couple days ago:
Dragging my ass out of burnout, here’s some Hermes (+ Odysseus ) drawings I made during class.. I promise I’ll finish that dangerous animatic.. one day.
Help I wanna try out the EPIC musical cause I’ve seen it’s popular but I know nothing about it like what should I listen to or watch first?
OK OK!!
So, to start off, EPIC: The Musical by Jorge "Jay" Miguel River-Herrans is a work in progress, musical adaptation of The Odyssey by Homer. EPIC is made up of two acts that are comprised of nine concept albums (or sagas) five sagas in Act 1 and four sagas in Act 2. Last night The Underworld Saga, the final saga and closing to act one came out. All sagas that have been finished (so the entirety of Act 1) are out on Spotify and basically any othe streaming platform! I don't personally have tiktok, but I would recommend looking up EPIC if you do and watching videos on it!
A great person for EPIC here on tumblr would be @epicthemusicalstuff
As far as trying out for EPIC! Jay says that anyone can try out no matter their age, equipment, whatever! If they think your voice is the right fit for a character, they will do everything in their power to help make it happen! I am unaware if there are any characters that auditions are open for though!
I probably spewed a little much, but I get very excited about EPIC. I hope this helps the way you needed! I'm not the greatest at explaining things or formatting them, sorry if this wasn't helpful!
Here is a list of each song in order and the link to my EPIC playlist! (There are probably tons of these that are easy to find if you dont wanna use mine, I just made my own anyways and already had it)
Here are the designs I made for a good chunk of the characters. I have some more, but I'll post those tomorrow. They were all based on the appearance of their voice actors (except Polites because I couldn't find his VA until after- whoops-), art/statues I found on Google from like- Greece or wherever they're from, and other designs people had made for them.
They're probably not the best or most accurate, but I like them and that's all that matters I think. This is all for fun anyways.
I don't think I've seen anyone talk about what Eurylochus was gonna say to Odysseus in the beginning of the Circe Saga? Probably because there isn't much to talk about but I'm 75% sure he was gonna confess to talking the crew into opening the bag that let out the storm given how guilty the dude sounded.
