Charybdis | Epic: the musical animatic

I want to do Dangerous next just so i can animate my Hermes moving around like a dragonfly. Find me on Tumblr and Tiktok at Lemonpoet!!!

Audio: Charybdis from Epic: the musical (written by: Jorge Rivera-Herrans)

OH THANK GOD, every animator I know is doing six hundred strike and dangerous and not sorry for loving you and get in the water already have animatics out, I really thought this song was gonna get left in the dust for a while

The happy tears as soon as he sees Ithaca, Penelope sensing her husband is near, and the wind taking her form to embrace Odysseus... bro, is Poseidon in my eyes? Cause that's a whole lotta water.

[TheSilversepiroth]

I love how the colors are inverted from what you'd normally see on a scene like this (which would be red skies/blue-ish water) because it kinda cements what Jorge said about this being the most video game/anime out of the Sagas: historically red is used to denote danger, and the water is more dangerous than the sky because, well, there's a giant monster in it

This is so Moana fighting with Te Ka coded from putting the hair up to the way he's steering the raft and I am so fucking here for it let's GOOOO

[idontneedachannelthanksyou]

1. I love he puts his hair up. He is NOT messing around
2. I love how he’s steering, It looks really good
3 I love the boat being broken, Ody just barely getting back on
4. HIS FACE WHEN HE SEES ITHICA
5. Penelope…
6. The way the wind is like communicating for them? A messanger?? Hermes and Aeolus help they favorite guy on an odyssey??
7. The way Ithica is covered by an approaching wave removing it from ody’s vision. Oooh man another obstacle for ody to stab repeatedly
8. The devil works hard but epic animators work harder IT HAS BEEN LESS THAN A WEEK HOW DID YOU GET A FULL CHARYBDIS OUT AND IT’S FUCKING AMAZING???

[ВасилисаБасманова-фч]

"My love, don't be scared" hit me in a new way watching how Penelope feels her Ody is near... Amazing animation, very difficult and active action!! I also loved the idea that Ody reached the nerby island, Get In The Water is more understandable then

[peqper]

DUDE ODYSSEUS WITH HIS HAIR UP IN A LIL THIS IS REVOLUTIONARY THANK YOU FOR THIS

[hunterredtalon]

The colors in this one are superb. It’s as though Odysseus controls the sea and Charybdis is an outsider— until the god of tides comes to dominate the waves and Odysseus is the other. Incredible work! :)

[cimmerianmuse]

No one talking about the beautiful wind-elope or the tears of happiness Ody gets when he sees his island. Great animatic!

[Elfall]

Finally someone showing Charybdis some love

[Andronika-bdwz]

Oh thank the gods...
I thought this song was gonna get left in the dust like a dam pile of schist.. Thank you for this beautiful anamatic

[addystuffs]

this is an awesome animatic but also the only thing i was thinking when he was sailin around was "koolaid ocean"

[Kieran_Luna]

I don’t know why but Ody putting his hair up was so cute lmao you did amazing 👏🏽👏🏽

[dootznbootz]

Oh I love Penelope getting up to the window as though she knows he's singing of her!!! And how her "image" goes out to Odysseus! Wonderful job!

[integrahellsing]

Not Penelope having a gut feeling that Ody is near 🥹

[meganmay]

Genuinely glad to finally see an animatic for this song! I love how Odysseus just puts up his hair in a ponytail before dealing with charybdis
Edit: Not going to lie. I love how destroyed the raft is by the end

[IcecreamCat]

I know Charybdis is gonna go under the radar, but I honestly LOVE this song. It’s like Survive. It gets me so PUMPED. I could listen to this song all the time no joke. It’s just ear candy. So I’m SO happy someone animated this. Cause now we legit have every song animated within… 10 days. Wow.

I just love how satisfying quick think sailing is. Just YUM

[Asterjupiter]

I love how you made Ody's boat get tore apart because Charybdis is meant to destroy entire ships!

[KaiseaWings]

It's such an underrated detail, but I love how you've shown him counterbalancing the boat and hauling on those ropes. It's a lovely visual, dramatic, and a bit of accuracy. Literally fighting that storm with just a bit of fabric.

[AngieTheSilly]

I just want to point at something, I believe that the "penelope" we hear in "the challenge" is exactly ody in this part, I think, because it would make sense-
Because is close, when he is just about to arrive, and penelope talks about the storm, probably poseidon storm, she just doesn't know his ody is fighting A DUCKING GOD for her 😂
