“I bet the entire island of Athens that Odysseus isn’t the one to open the bag.” “Oh, I’ll GLADLY take that bet.” “Well, I’ll bet all the sheep I stole from Helios he lasts at least 5 days.” “not a chance, I’m betting my lyre he’s out in three.” “I bet Achilles’ old armour I forged that he gets back to his island.” “Well, obviously he’s getting there EVENTUALLY. I wouldn’t let a king die at sea.”
I love the idea of the winions whispering things like "never know who you can trust" and "sometimes sneaking is a must" into the ears of the crew, involving themselves in planting thoughts of opening the bag in their heads and making things harder for Odysseus on purpose.
They are doing that. Aeolus is cheating. Gods don't play fair. Granted most of their bad reputation comes from the roman Ovid which painted the greek gods in a bad light to make the roman ones look better
Odysseus' main flaw throughout his story is hubris. He brags to Polyphemus, revealing his name for no reason just so that Polyphemus knew who beat him (and Polyphemus then prays to Poseidon to kill 'Odysseus' rather than 'Nobody'). When they sail past the sirens, he decides that he alone can resist their charm and doesn't need to wear earplugs, because he wants to know what they're singing about (admittedly, he does still tie himself to the mast, but it was still a needless risk he took because he believed that he was smart and strong enough to handle the consequences). Here is no different. In the original myth, he just assumes that the task of keeping the bag closed is 'too easy' and 'beneath him' and doesn't come up with a plan to make SURE it stays closed. Instead, he just keeps watch over it because 'of course the great hero Odysseus could never fail a task this simple'. He actually makes it 90% of the way home (they can see Ithaca) before his men open the bag in the original and the only reason they open the bag is because they're never told what it contains, just that they aren't allowed to open it (and they start wondering if it's some great treasure from the gods that their great leader wants to keep for themselves). Then, the winds blow them back to Aeolus, who refuses to help them again because he thinks Odysseus must be hated by the gods to have the end of his journey so cruelly snatched away from him. All of this is to say that I really like this interpretation of their interaction with the brewing resentment between Odysseus and the crew and the almost nonchalant way he accepts Aeolus' challenge.
When thinking back on it, Polyphemus would only remember “nobody punished me for my act of wrath” and hence would only be crueler in turn, in that case Odysseus’ mistake was believing the cyclops would have any sort of sense or reason to change his ways, rather than instantly seek retribution despite the fact that Odysseus was the victim of his unreasonable wrath. A common theme in many characters in this story is arrogance, some people are punished by it, others are instead rewarded for it. Ody is, unfortunately for him, the former of the two
I love how you draw Telemachus as a boy, in other animatic people forget he would technically be not fully 20-21 so I assume he would be 10-14 when this is all happening
@@Aislin42 That's because the main events of Epic: The Musical occur many years prior to the main sotry of the odyssey, he spent 7 years in callypsos island
@@nastycat409I thought he’d be 10 here, as he mentioned to Poseidon it’s been 10 years since he had the grudge (in 600 strike, he’s about 20), 12 by Circe, so since Poseidon at least two years would pass, 7 years on calypso would make him 19
if the captain stayed awake for 9 days straight I would think that is evidence that he truly believes in what he is saying, like seriously just wait till you get home, once you are on land the storm would probably still be devastating but you can't be flung far away.
I love how you didn't give Telemachus much detail to his face, considering it would make sense that Odysseus wouldn't know what his son looks like grown up, only what he knew from when he left, when Telemachus was a baby.
ahh 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer' he already does keep his men close but the one who opens the bag is his closest friend therefore his enemy
I absolutely adore Aeolus' design, it's just so original and fun and flowy!! Odysseus at the end looks incredibly Tired like. Look at that boy. Can you blame him for falling asleep? He's lucky he didn't fall off the ship. I just keep coming back to this animation because ahhhh you did an AMAZING job!!!
Odysseus learned a hard lesson. He should have relied on his best asset to win this game, his cunning. He was never the model of Greek Fortitude. What he should have done is used some trickery like have multiple decoy bags.
Honestly he didn't even need trickery, all he had to do was say that the bag needed to stay closed for their journey, and once they're back home it can be opened.
@@kamaljohnson2200 Because the storms winds were trapped in the bag Poseidon wasn't able to do anything to Odysseus. That's because waves are created mostly by wind so by the winds being trapped Poseidon couldn't use his powers not only does this include his ability to control the waves, but also his ability to search for Odysseus. Which is why Poseidon only shows up after the winds were mostly released. If they tossed the bag into the water then they would have been putting the bag into his domain allowing him the opportunity to acquire it to release the wind and go after Odysseus.
You know all the misfortune that followed after was because of this one decision his men made even after Odyssey desperately warned them to not do so in the end he was the last one alive a broken man from the journey that had happened Plus every time he warned his men they never listened even when he stayed awake for 9 days straight
@SpiritoftheSands True, i have a super old animated movie of Odyssey and I am mostly recalling it from that but I really love this musical they made from the original story.
They probably already know Odysseus would lost the bet, so they never given the term when & where 😅. I mean the winions really working hard to sway the crew 😂.
I just can't imagine what kind of crisis Odysseus had to come through when they reached the Circe's island. His men betraying him. Animatic is beyond beautiful i love your impression of Aeolus
I believe it's spelled Aeolus! But it really is a bop. I play this and wouldn't you like to get my friends hooked on EPIC and it's worked every time lol
@LilacDoodle505 my niece is two and has listened to the song so much that she "sings" along to it and even hums the music! I haven't shown her the whole musical, just this one because I feel like a lot of the content isn't appropriate for her and I'm not her parents to dictate that lol, but she LOVES this song and I always show her this animatic because she loves it too
@XOXOkim-774 😂😂 omg! No! She was only 2 and now 3, I had only shown her and her brothers (7 and 4) the most age appropriate songs from the musical 🤪 when they're older I have taken it as my responsibility to show all three of them the more intense parts of the musical lol
Mah soul is overwhealmed and just I can’t rn I can’t even word properly (I only managed this far because I had to retype and to calm my heart). First of all, THE DESIGNS OF AEOLUS AND PENELOPE (AS SAID BELOW) I AM SHOOKETH. I think this is my favorite Aeolus design I have seen up to date. You have gone above and beyond. Just ahhh and the Winions, their personalities (especially the one on the end, or the third one, who seems most mischievous). The facial expressions are just so much fun, especially when he sees the vision/dream of his wife, he looks so relieved and his eyes. Mah heart. Just overall, I cannot with how it just was so good. It’s not perfect persay within some regards, I mean it’s hard to find something “perfect” for anything but What it is perfect is the clear beautiful creation this is. Like ohhhhhhh mah soul, it is such a good representation of the song. Okay I am done with my rant my heart is just overwhelmed right now.
No, Ody hasn't slept in 9 days straight. It can literally kill u if u dont sleep especially for that long, plus ull start hallucinating cause u haven't given ur brain to basically recharge urself
This song and Thunder Bringer had people thinking Penelope's voice be a trick by the gods. Why is that an idea for you here? Is it to give a more concrete justification for her presence, because it just being Ody's thoughts doesn't seem valid enough?
This animatic is massively impressive. I am surprised you have so few subscrbers, but I am sure that is too change. The desgins for te characters, although especially aeolous, are astoundingly amazing. I appreciate all of the work you put in, the close-ups are impressive. It is quite the ambitious project. I salute you, and wish you the best.
You're incredible!! This animatic comes with such fluid animation and ideas that know no bounds. Another drop dead gorgeous Aeolus design paired with the creative idea to make the winions tied to her hair omg. 🌬💙
I presume you drew influence from Gigi's animatic? I do like some of your reinterpretations if so. If not... wow are you two likeminded with how you visualized most of these scenes. Very impressive regardless.
Whenever I listen to this song, I've always been confused by who's voice it is that wakes him up. Is it Athena still near but hidden? Is it his wife in his dream?
I think it's really just his inner voice or his own determination to keep the bag closed. Some creative liberty has been taken so it doesn't reallyyyy make sense... but think about this, does it even need to make sense when it adds so life to the song?
I've always interpreted it as the subconscious being aware of the surroundings around you and it changing his dreams. You've ever heard of going to the bathroom in your dream and then turns out you did irl or how the way a dream ends is mimicking something going on around you when you wake up. and its a dream of his wife
Okay, I don't know if anyone else catch the background line of the men saying, quote. "Something change since Polites" I think that how the name is spelled
@@Sweet_Like_A_Jack_Rose really any god/ goddness could since technically a lot of stories have they have the gods/ goodness change their appearance (either human or animal.) But really this is just overthinking tbh
When I first heard this song I was thinking he can just sew it shut or get a decoy but thinking back... Would they have anything like that on the ship?
I love this animatic! I’m pretty sure Aeolus is supposed to be masculine or at least Gender Neutral, though. (I know they’re voiced by a woman, but Odysseus specifically refers to him with masculine pronouns and title in the song prior. “We’re in the home of the wind God”, “I’m gunna climb to the top and ask him for a hand!”) That being said, I still LOVE the creativity of the Aeolus design here. Super cool.
while i get that, most of the gods had no solid gender unless it was actually based in their identities or had a pair (ex. hecate, hestia, leto being fem cs they are about fem aspects (maiden, crone, mother) or artemis, athena, or hera cs conversely they had apollo, ares, zeus.) so aelous tends to be depicted either way. edit. plus god tends to just be a baseline term. like how one calls humanity mankind or how people say 'dude'. its not really gendered anymore. goddess is just used as a 'this is definitely a woman and nothing else' type beat.
@@dropletq3477 greek has pronouns for males ,females and gender neutral stuff ,in the myths the gods are always treated as males and females ,the only things that are gender neutral are some of the monsters ,aeolus was a dude in the myth ,the name itself is masculine aand belonged to many ither mythical figures ,all dudes
Instead of staying awake for 9 nine days he would of been better off staying awake for a day or two then pretending to fall asleep, catch them in the act and execute them for insubordination to send a message. A darcker approach sure but it would of been more effective if he did it a few times since they would never know when hes really asleep or pretending to be ti set another trap.
Considering that he had just lost 50 men and polities to the cyclopse, and also just not wanting to kill his own men, odysseus wouldve never done this. Also odysseus is a genius, staying awake for 9 days wax his only option, as soon as he heared the treasue rumor he already knew his chances were slim but now they were zero.
@Blossomy77 it wasn't his only option nor was it his best just the one he chose since he didn't want to kill anyone. Just like he didn't kill the Cyclops. And yeah I know he never would used any method that included killing his men but doing so would of ensured no one would of opened the bag.
@David-fp9hi yes I am aware he wouldn't kill them, never said he would at this point in time. But it would of still been a more effective method if he was willing to kill at this point in the story.
Turning the windions into hair and giants was a clever idea.
I just realized that as soon as Odysseus got that bag, the gods probably started betting on whether he's gonna open it
Real😂
the gods tend to do that
Bet some were so disappointed when his crew opened it instead of him
I can just imagine Zeus going to bet all his coins
“I bet the entire island of Athens that Odysseus isn’t the one to open the bag.”
“Oh, I’ll GLADLY take that bet.”
“Well, I’ll bet all the sheep I stole from Helios he lasts at least 5 days.”
“not a chance, I’m betting my lyre he’s out in three.”
“I bet Achilles’ old armour I forged that he gets back to his island.”
“Well, obviously he’s getting there EVENTUALLY. I wouldn’t let a king die at sea.”

Sneaking?! Gosh, I thought that they sang “sometimes singing is a must” but sneaking makes more sense
I thought it was "killing"@@strawberrymilk_nya
@@austinthesecuritygaurd7630 it is both depending on the verse. They tell Odysseus to kill if needed, and the crew to sneak to the bag later on.
"Never know who you can trust" was referring to Aoelus themself the entire time.
@@KaguroDraven and then his own crewmates who were supposed to listen to his order regardless of what they think about the situation
Like how as soon as the winds went into the bag Aeolus' hair was tied up
Takeaway from this: if you ask a god "What's the catch?" and they start laughing? Be very, very afraid
The winnions being part of Aeolos' hair is genius!
I love how it looks like Aeolus and the little winions are spreading distention among the crew.
"winions" 😭🙏
They are doing that. Aeolus is cheating. Gods don't play fair. Granted most of their bad reputation comes from the roman Ovid which painted the greek gods in a bad light to make the roman ones look better
I love that wind goddess's hair is her little minions. It's so creative and looks great.
I love this so much, especially the design choice of having the Winions be Aeolus' hair - that's such a great and clever touch.

When I first heard this song I was thinking he can just sew it shut or get a decoy but thinking back... Would they have anything like that on the ship?
i think a needle and thread is pretty likely
I would just throw it in the ocean tbh, like tie it shut rlly tight, or leave it on a random island
They would have to have something to mend the sails.
@@Q33Rwitchthen Poseidon would pick it up in ordeer to open it
@@CaptainPoseidon282 how did poseidon know about the bag?
Cool design
SHES SO CUTE
This is so good!!
love her design 😍😍😍
I love this animatic! I’m pretty sure Aeolus is supposed to be masculine or at least Gender Neutral, though. (I know they’re voiced by a woman, but Odysseus specifically refers to him with masculine pronouns and title in the song prior. “We’re in the home of the wind God”, “I’m gunna climb to the top and ask him for a hand!”)
That being said, I still LOVE the creativity of the Aeolus design here. Super cool.
while i get that, most of the gods had no solid gender unless it was actually based in their identities or had a pair (ex. hecate, hestia, leto being fem cs they are about fem aspects (maiden, crone, mother) or artemis, athena, or hera cs conversely they had apollo, ares, zeus.) so aelous tends to be depicted either way.
edit. plus god tends to just be a baseline term. like how one calls humanity mankind or how people say 'dude'. its not really gendered anymore. goddess is just used as a 'this is definitely a woman and nothing else' type beat.
that only adds to the chaotic nature of Wind
Aeolus is a masculine name and in myth he was a dude
@@dropletq3477 greek has pronouns for males ,females and gender neutral stuff ,in the myths the gods are always treated as males and females ,the only things that are gender neutral are some of the monsters ,aeolus was a dude in the myth ,the name itself is masculine aand belonged to many ither mythical figures ,all dudes
@@wankawanka3053 valid then. however, doesnt really change the latter point. plus ppl can interpret as they wish
Daaamn this looks amazing!
Amazing!
I love the art
peak aeolus design ngl
Instead of staying awake for 9 nine days he would of been better off staying awake for a day or two then pretending to fall asleep, catch them in the act and execute them for insubordination to send a message. A darcker approach sure but it would of been more effective if he did it a few times since they would never know when hes really asleep or pretending to be ti set another trap.
Considering that he had just lost 50 men and polities to the cyclopse, and also just not wanting to kill his own men, odysseus wouldve never done this. Also odysseus is a genius, staying awake for 9 days wax his only option, as soon as he heared the treasue rumor he already knew his chances were slim but now they were zero.
@Blossomy77 it wasn't his only option nor was it his best just the one he chose since he didn't want to kill anyone. Just like he didn't kill the Cyclops. And yeah I know he never would used any method that included killing his men but doing so would of ensured no one would of opened the bag.
Guy odysseyus at this time can't kill so that does not work
@David-fp9hi yes I am aware he wouldn't kill them, never said he would at this point in time. But it would of still been a more effective method if he was willing to kill at this point in the story.
That would be a post “Monster” Odysseus move
OMG GOOD JOB IT LOOKS AMAZING :):):):):):)
YAY! I loved that so much!
this is Amazing
Ima turn the musical into 3d animation so would it be okay if use aeoless design if not back to the drawing board
Yea sure
tysm!
