I really want to go back and do this one and I’m glad to be finished right before the next saga! I’m so excited the ending is my favorite 😍.

Thank you all so much for the love and support to this crazy gal in this little corner of the internet! It means so much to me. 🥰 Fun Fact: SPOILER slightly but when Ody comes back to his senses the puppet strings are broken by Penelope's motif. 💫

I love how Odysseus persuades Circe to help by just going on and on about how much he loves his wife and is loyal to her. A rarity in Greek culture. See Hamilton, this is someone who *could* say NO to it.

Are we sure he's not Hera's chosen instead of Athena's?

The most powerful and rare ability amongst the entire greek pantheon. Loyalty to one's partner.

Except in the original lore Ody un willingly had to sleep with Circe for a year before she turned his men back and let them escape 😅 same thing with Calypso , hence bro went atheist in the end and said F the Greek gods

i haven't seen someone use the final part of circe's side as her using her powers to send them to the underworld before. I really like that its a cool way of imagining it and makes sense. i was surprised to see the men turn back from pigs so early since i feel like most people turn them back when they come back in as backing vocals to the song but the way you did it was cool and i like that its different from others ive seen

Awed shock. Just . . . what? This was brilliant. Ody's eyes going yellow to show he's being influenced in addition to the puppet strings. The moonlight gorgeously contrasted with the firelight. The nods of understanding each other towards the end. Circe using a spell to transport them down to the Underworld. Brilliance. Sheer and utter brilliance.

I loved this. The way Circe was designed and I love how menacing but beautiful she looks. The necklace to signify she was in love at one point (like maybe gift from them… if someone could tell me who she was in love with that would be great because I’m too lazy to find out myself) was a nice touch too, especially with how soft she looked when looking at it and it being a contrast to her menacing look though out the beginning.

@mirandagarza2657 Ай бұрын

From what i understand she was in love with a mortal, a fisherman to be exact, and helped him become a god (albeit a minor one), the problem was when the man abandoned her and changed her for another nymph (who was said to be quite beautifull in contrast of Circe who had the blood of the god son Helios but was said to not have luster associated with him and was also by her mother compared to a lynx), she then out of jealousy cursed the nymph turning her into Scylla which is a monster with twelve heads that lives on a cliff blocking the path the opposite of charybdis, Scylla is one of the monster the Odyseuss actually fights in his travels. The biggest problem with Circe is that since she uses witchcraft and not godly powers the greater gods were afraid to what she could end up doing and/or achiving so they used that oportunity to confine her. They also forvade her parents from having other children because of that same reason.

That ending was beautiful, powerful, and gorgeous! I absolutely love the visuals as well as the storytelling that takes us from Circe's Palace to her actually helping them travel to the Underworld.

Another really enjoyable animatic from you Pixel. Loved quite a few aspects of this with the strings and hypnosis effect Circe has on Odysseus, the Moonlit setting which is ironic given Circe is the daughter of Helios the Sun God who was another central character in the Odyssey, the tender cleavage nearly being on display, how Circe after the shift really feels like a mage confidante, and Circe's pendant containing a loved one. The major highlight though was of course having Circe actually send Odysseus and his men to the Underworld, with her final belt backed by Odysseus's men. It combines the best parts of the song with gorgeus animations and with Odysseus and his men actually leaving the island. Also just wanted to add I really do like your style combined with this Circe design. It reminds me of a late 90s anime style. Circe looks like she just walked right out of the Jugdral Fire Emblem games, like with Linoan in particular. I really dig it. Looking forward to your future animatics and hope the Epic community can find you to be a breakout new animator for the Thunder Saga.

@brittpowwpixel Ай бұрын

Thank you so much for the kind words! ❤️ It’s funny you say 90s because I’d say I’m influenced by the modern castlevania which artistically is based off the older games. I do however really enjoy that older gothic anime type of vibe too. That and probably AOT but that’s newer.

Honestly, just wanna say I do really appreciate this art style, very different from what I'm used to see from other, still amazing, Epic animatics. With its sharp angles, well detailed eyes and even the hard lines marking the cheekbones it feels kind of Jojo-coded, or even Fist of the Northstar, and honestly it just looks good, somewhat under-used style nowadays.

This feels weird to say, but I'm glad so many people drew Circe reaching for a knife to kill Odysseus rather than actually forcing him to sleep with her. If she was serious about her proposition then that would've basically made her a rapist.

@fandemusique4693 Ай бұрын

She's a Greek deity/immortal divine blooded witch, being a rapist is normal for their lot, that's not an issue at all character-wise, especially when we see Epic kept the SA vibe of Zeus. Hell, it's not for nothing epic had to make the physical relationship not happens despite the Odyssey making it that Odysseus had to sleep with her.

@sinjinreed2091 Ай бұрын

@@fandemusique4693 It's hard to sympathize with a rapist.

@fandemusique4693 Ай бұрын

@@sinjinreed2091 true, and it's why they changed it because for some reasons they didn't wanted her to be one. Same for calypso, who's straight up one without wiggle room, even Homer wrote it "unwilling lover alongside lover all too willing", that's the quote for Odysseus and her sleeping together.
