      The first animatic in the playlist is two songs in one so it's the horse in the infant and then just a man and one video just wanted to let you know that so you don't think you're missing a song

    For the song order, I'd recommend the official concept album playlist on spotify, they're all in the right succession there! Sagas are simply the story sections, each has a different cover because they released over time as mini albums.

  • @chels8556

    Okay; so EPIC is a concept album created and written by Jorge Rivera-Herrans. Based off of Homers Odyssey, yet with his own changes (meaning it’s not an exact interpretation). It’s set into two acts, both consisting of 20 songs each, spreading over a series of 9 “sagas”.
    Act 1 has the Troy, Cyclops, Ocean, Cersei and Underworld sagas, act 2 has the Thunder, Wisdom, Vengeance and Ithaca sagas.
    Jorge channeled a lot of his love for video games into EPIC, and with that in mind, imagine each saga as a game level. Each face their own challenges for our protagonist (Odysseus) to overcome. The Wisdom saga however breaks from Odysseus being the main character and we see things from other perspectives.
    Absolutely highly recommend going to Jorge’s UA-cam channel and watching his premier party livestream. That livestream contains all his commissioned animatics from various artists. It’s the best way to make sure what you’re watching is canon to the story. Otherwise other various artists across UA-cam have released their own incredible animatics for each song.
    Welcome to the EPIC community, we’re happy to have you!

    Odysseus is the King of Ithaca, he, up to this point, has been away from home for ten years because of the Trojan War, you might have heard about the wooden horse they used to sneak into the city.

    Penelope and Telemachus are Odysseus' wife and son, the booming voice you heard toward the end of the song is Zeus, leader of the Greek gods. And there was a female voice too, just barely there at the end who is Athena the goddess of Wisdom and warfare

    Welcome to the fandom! You’ll see, you’re going to love it!
    Like others, I strongly suggest to look at the animatics :)
    I also suggest to listen to an entire saga in one video or at least the songs that go together because some are a clear continuation of the previous.

    Jay the creator plays the main character’s voice Odysseus. It’s a take on Homer’s the Odyssey. He started it as a project for college and it snowballed from there with followers people creating animatics and an amazing online community. This is a concept album and he finished it on Christmas. It’s Troy, Cyclops, Ocean, Circe, Underworld, Thunder, Wisdom, Vengeance and Ithaca saga. So excited for another reactor. I highly suggest watching the animatics for easier contexts

    EPIC is a retelling of Homer's Odyssey which takes place after Homer's The Iliad. The Iliad is the story of the Trojan War (Achilles, Helen of Troy, Hector, etc...). The Odyssey is about Odysseus, a Greek general who was the mastermind of the Trojan Horse, and his men's journey home back to Ithaca. EPIC is the creation of Jorge Rivera Herrans, who also voices the main character who you heard in this song. What most of the EPIC community wants to see in reactions is to the fan made animations, of which there are many for each song. I'm sure people will give you playlists, but in case they don't here is one i've curated. ua-cam.com/video/OE8TQBqWVV8/v-deo.html For the most part it has all of the fan agreed upon favorites in proper order. I would highly suggest rewatching The Horse and the Infant with the animatic to get the most out of this masterpiece. If you plan on doing multiple songs in one reaction video I would look up how the songs are broken up into Sagas.

    • @Atraeus13
      @Atraeus13 3 дні тому

      PS the final saga (the last 5 songs of the musical) just came out on Christmas, so the fan made animatics are slowly flowing in but some songs aren't there yet. For the songs that don't have one yet I added the partial animatic/lyric videos the Jorge livestreamed on Christmas. But i'll eventually update those when there's a better fan made animatic available.

    I love Wicked, I like most Broadway musicals and will obsess over them......that being said...personally, I prefer EPIC over EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. Jorge is a master storyteller, he and everyone who played a part in bringing this to life is super talented and pretty much everyone who sang for this is a POWERHOUSE.
    As other commenters have said, watch the final live stream OR watch with animatics as it will give you a lot of context you might miss. Keep in mind this is a concept album...I am hoping we see sooooooo much more in future.

      @serendipitish День тому +2

      @ea-xb2cf The first two sagas were originally released through a production company, and those old recordings are the ones used by the earliest Epic fan animators (like Gigi). That production company turned out to be scummy, and kept the money themselves instead of sharing it with Jorge and the other vocalists.
      So naturally, Jorge re-recorded the first two sagas, and formed his own production company to re-release those two, and the remaining seven sagas -- these new recordings are the ones you'll hear on most streaming platforms now. Hope that helps!
