Oh WOW that daydream sequence, you never disappoint!
i love how this animatic really shows how invasive the suitors are, with them crowding the halls, making a mess, having the maids serving them, all while telemachus is trying to go about his life. you can really feel how they're taking up space
1:14 Incorporating the “L-L-L-L-Legendary” bit as both the original dog-petting thing while also making him look like he’s doing a DJ record scratch is just superb
I luv how during the scene when telemachus is saying 'l-l-legendary' he's belly rubbing his dog. Like it's just SO adorable and cute to me! MY HEARTT can't take it! 😭💖
I’VE BEEN WAITIN ON THIS ONE 1:57 This sequence was breathtaking
0:50 OMG DOGGO RECOGNIZED ATHENA IM GONNA CRY
This is probably the only animatic that actually shows that Telemachus is a prince, not just some kid dreaming- a crown prince at that. In every scene in this animatic, it shows depth to his situation- I always hated how people would animate Telemachus as some sort of child with no responsibilities. they never truly described his situation as much as you did. in summary- I LOVE IT!!
i love how fed this fandom is even after the end of the ithaca saga
I love how Penelope is being escorted around her palace by her royal guards, same with Telemachus doing his princely duties!!! I feel like ppl forget they're literally greek royalty😞
0:35 I love how this portrait from Ody's family is identical to the one we see on the infant's room in The Horse and The Infant
Loving the contrast between Telemachus being a responsible prince and still being a dreamer. The way he plays with his dog and his dreams are a nice touch. As usual, your animations are golden.
Why do I feel like your animatic helped me see Telemachus as a 20 year old man and not a 14 year old boy. You did it so well 🫶
1:22 I love the detail of Penelope having a personal guard because of course she would It’s one of those little details that didn’t NEED to be added but were anyway. Gigi remains legendary, folks!
I love how you've captured Telemachus as both young and inexperienced but not entirely unpracticed or distant from his princely duties. Like he's a young adult with responsibilities and things and also a bright eyed young adult who is curious and wants to explore! I also LOVE the sketchy style for his dream sequence. And his facial expressions were particularly devastating throughout. Ugh this is a masterpiece!
I love the depiction of days passing for Telemachus during the song to show he's trying to solve what to do, dreaming heroic feats, and the conflicts with the suitors. I love how you drew the suitors, particularly Antinous looking like a savage rogue.
I love so much of this oh my gosh- TELE’S DOG AS CERBERUS AND HIM TALKING TO HIM IN LIKE BABY VOICE WHEN HES LIKE “LLLEGENDARY” IS A STROKE OF GENIUS-
Something gigi probably put purposely in the animatic is that at the start you can see a guy selling fish and a man passing by with a fishing rod which actually makes geographical sense because people who live on islands tend to make most of their financial income by fishing (or tourism.) Really adds to the realism
I love how you depicted the suitors here, even fighting among themselves: they are fighting over Penelope, and only one of them can have her. They only occasionally team up against Telemachus.
Okay...I love this. He actually seems like a young adult with responsibilities, but still has the desire to do more. Also love how he does the l-l-l-legendary as belly rubs and the look of affection for Argos.
