I love the little pause before "hundredth," it's like he just remembered how monogamous this version of Odysseus is, and recalibrated his estimated falling-in-love timeline.

Grandpa got moves

I love how you made Hermes seem more like he is deranged rather than this helpful little trickster.

I like to imagine hermes duplicating himself for the chorus

i can't with this lol I love the dancing XD its all i can think of with song

what is going on with hermes eyes

This interpretation of Hermes is brilliant, he’s so unhinged, yet logical and he has some killer dance moves !!

I love how in some parts his hair is made of water! It’s such a cool design

It really feels like Hermes is trying to get Odysseus to dance with him in this lol

I love the detail of Ody tying the headband around his sword, because I don't think that's the kind of arms that Polites wanted to greet the world with. This is a great animatic and it needs more recognition!

Just imagine a trickster god trying to do something NOT tricky- This is the result and I love it- 🤣🤣💖💖 No but seriously i agree with everyone else! The way youve somehow made him both logical and insane, like hes about to go off the rails even though his heads probably in perfectly straight- or as straight as a trickster god can have it- although he IS his grandson and Hermes also the god of travelers so- yeah, checks out he wants to help Odysseus- 😅👍

i love the emo pose of the thumbnail jahaha, great animation btw

Not Hermes falling from the tre in the beginning. Than dancing as if nothing happened. And ody in the background with his jaw open 😂👌🏻❤️ I can't 😭💀

I love how Hermes can fly so we can assume he voluntarily fell from that tree at the beginning 😂

I absolutely ADORE the Uncanny Valley feeling that Hermes' design has, it feels like it fits him really well, and makes the deal feel a lot more shady as a result too, after all he is taking an offer from a Trickster God

It might be a problem for Moana

2:10 Accension time

Hi there!!! Can I just say this is really impressive artwork! I love how much expression is on every frame ✨ Is it okay if I use your animatic for a cover I’m currently working on? Of course I’ll be giving you the corresponding credits for such amazing work!

I compliment the atention to details.

I noticed you like showing the Gods as a bit unhinged. I suppose this may be because we are seeing them from Odysseus' perspective.

One of the most epic takes on the story. Good Job!

I question Hermes intentions. The way Odysseus saves his men has little to do with herb Hermes gave him.

I love how a t 2:32 ish you can see how his eyes are dialated differently. It really gives off the vibe that he’s not right in the head, like he’s concussed or something,

Man this is too good you did Incredible so unbelievable good words can't describe how amazing this 💫

Quite poignant how he tied Polites' headband around his sword - a tool quite antithetical to greeting the world with open arms lmao

The one man band really captures his essence lol

i hope you keep working on this because it is a great adaptation of the song.

Just gotta love Hermes little hip sway and shoulder dip dance, got me dancing with him, on beat with those dance moves man

Looking great

Poseidon treating the ocean (and the crew) like he's a kid in a bathtub playing with toys is such an excellent comparison to how frail humans are in the face of these deities.

I love how every animatic has him dancing like that we hear the music and the voice and the hive mind kick in

At 2:48 it looks like there’s a face next to Hermes’ head that’s watching on. I don’t know if it was intentional, but I’m going to imagine that it’s Athena making sure Hermes followed her instructions.

This is great

Also seeking revenge on Athena after the while situation with namong the city Athens or Posideona or soemthing liek that

Can we talk aboit how Posideon put his hand over his eye, so villainous and cool, Posideon has did alot of stuff, raping Medusa, having multiple affairs, but hes a father and god, and has the authority to avenge his son, life can be worse than death

This version makes me so uncomfortable, I love it! It’s pretty different from how I imagined him, but I can still totally see it! I love this version sm 😭❤️

1:44 holy moly. foreshadowing much?

Great expressions!

Okay, I really like the 'clothing as water' design here, especially in combination with the hair. It's a really solid design. I also like the Polyphemus design, if it didn't match the one shown before in the story that'd be fine, because we could easily read this as how Poseidon sees his son, or (more ruthlessly) Poseidon deliberately making the figure more human to stab harder emotionally with the point being made. He's not going to kill Odysseus here, he has to consider his fellow God's views on the matter. But no one said anything about not torturing him, which is pretty much the entire sequence up until the 'apology' that isn't. It was also all personal until then and the expression you rendered for Poseidon in response really works.

0:11 i love how Posideon is nodding like "yeah... Say my name,"

You guys should know Gods/immortals really feared pain, they laothed it, being in pain was one of the harshest punishments a god or immortal could receive, and Odysseus literally left the cyclops in pain and humiliated him by calling it mercy, he even rubs it in by leaving his name and address as if to scorn him for not being able to do anything to him. To make it worse, Odysseus' crew has been slighting poseidon from the very beginning by not paying tribute to him while in his domain!!, and he even used poseidon's own animal the horse, as trap for the trojans who actually worshiped poseidon, while his own kingdom worshiped Athena instead of him, while his kingdom was literally on the coast. His usage of the horse made it seem like he was mocking the trojans for worshipping poseidon, because it is their belief in poseidon that made them fall for this trap. To even further elaborate on Odysseus' arrogance, he dropped that infant and was going on about how he was just a man, but when he blinds and humilates polythemus, he says he is neither man nor mythical. He places himself in a position where he is righteous and is above polythemus. Quite frankly he would still have died if he had apologized to poseidon, but maybe he could have saved the lives of his men, because the gods have to keep their word even if it is just to a certain extent, otherwise mortals lose trust in their word, which won't be good because it means they lose worshippers, hence getting less tribute. Odysseus saw himself as an eqaul to the gods, i think he got to close to athena and because of athena literally spoiling him, his arrogance just grew and he even forgot his place that's why he talked back to athena and actually defied her orders!!!!

Ah yes, our favorite greek equivalent of good Joker 😂

I love how in the animatics every one made Hermes graceful and swift like a cheshire cat, and you just made him faceplant on the ground from falling off of the trees. It's like he's really, really unhinged, dangerous, and unstable, but also knows exactly what he's doing. He looks like a guy that would help you out and toss you in a snake pit just for the heck of it. But I also know that he's just helping out his great grand son. I love this so much.

I absolutely love your artstyle! Does it happen to be partially inspired by Jojo's? Could be completely wrong of course tho xD

oh wow

You have a talent! You don’t miss when you make these!

This looks like it could be a great manga, love the atmosphere and expressions!

Hermes is a manic pixie and I am HERE FOR IT and I'll not hear any words to the contrary.

Nice! hermes here looks a lot more insane than on other animatics I've watched.Also, eyes. he has eyes here. One of which looks insane, and the clash is pretty weird. And you did this in a week? Kudos to you. Hermes here seems even more enthusiastic at getting Odysseous into drugs than usual, and that's saying sommething(Hey, maybe that's why hsi eyes looks so weird-)
