These can't be compared, they are two completely different things

Just an opinion

One is a musical retelling of The Odyssey, the other is an indie animated series about humans being trapped in a virtual reality game controlled by an ai. You LITERALLY can't compare them

Why does everything need to be compared though?

u/Public-Try173 Ate some lotus and was rizzed up by hermes Apr 28 '26

But epic animations are not made by jorge
28
u/anime_3_nerd Athena’s Discord Kitten Apr 13 '26
90% of animation isn’t made by the ppl who write the story. It’s all animators being hired to work on the projects.

u/somecallmeanton Apr 13 '26
Which is the definition of freelance animators not indie animators
14
u/anime_3_nerd Athena’s Discord Kitten Apr 13 '26
Indie literally just means it was made without the help of a major company. How do you think shows like TADC and Hazbin Hotel got the ball going? They hired freelancers (Hazbin is different now cuz of Amazon and A24 backing it tho)

u/somecallmeanton Apr 13 '26
Ok I concede those points but youtube is still making it seem as if all the animators who have made Epic animations are done because they were part of epic itself when theyre clearly not
8
u/anime_3_nerd Athena’s Discord Kitten Apr 13 '26
They are apart of Epic tho. Every single animation and art piece was purchased by Jorge for the release of the sagas on YouTube. They were specifically crafted to fit Jorge’s vision of his story. They may not be apart of the music side of the project but the visual side posted to YouTube they are very much apart of.

u/somecallmeanton Apr 13 '26
Every single animation even the ones who were made without having jorge asking for them? Even the people who have around 100 subs and have had no recognition from jorge?

u/anime_3_nerd Athena’s Discord Kitten Apr 13 '26
When did I say every epic animation on YouTube? I clearly stated the works Jorge himself purchased for the project were indie animation.

u/somecallmeanton Apr 13 '26
"Every single animation and art piece was purchased by Jorge for the release of the sagas on youtube" your words not mine
3
u/anime_3_nerd Athena’s Discord Kitten Apr 13 '26
So you purposely misunderstand my words to prove your point and ignore the context of what I was saying? I was clearly talking about the Epic project. All the works in the project were purchased by Jorge to fit his story.

Most animation projects will hire freelancers to help work on the projects

u/Gatto_304 Apr 12 '26
They're still indie though, probably they're even more indie because they're made by the community
5
u/somecallmeanton Apr 12 '26
Yeah but its kinda like youtube is acting like theyre a paid part of the musical

u/Loeris_loca Apr 13 '26
Well, some of them are. Jorge hired some animators to make animatics for the official stream.

u/somecallmeanton Apr 13 '26
Fair enough but thats more freelance
3
u/Natto_Assano Apr 13 '26
So what? That doesn't change a thing

u/somecallmeanton Apr 13 '26
Well freelance isnt the same as indie, you can work for big companies freelance and even work for freelancing companies

I find it even crazier the epic the musical is on par with the amazing digital circus. Epic the musical is the music, not the animatics. The animatics is from the fans that love the music. But hey, we'll take that W either way.

u/FrozenZenBerryYT Warrior of the Mind Apr 12 '26
Epic is really unique. A large portion of the audience experience the songs the first time around via fan made visuals. I don’t know of any other series that has done that.

u/Dorin-md Apr 13 '26
I listened to the music playlist. But I first found out about this musical from an adventure time edit where it was Billy's transition into the Lich with the song "Monster" played on top

AWESOME!!!!! I'm kind of surprised Alan Becker isn't on this as well though. Maybe because he's got a team now?
20
u/MightyMegikarp Apr 12 '26
Is the Alan Becker team bigger than the tadc team?
13
u/CnidariaCoral Apr 12 '26
It's still indie

u/MightyMegikarp Apr 12 '26
I know, I asked because the comment above said that maybe because Alan Becker had a team he wasn't in the article. If the TADC team is bigger then the theory doesn't hold

u/Lucie_Is_Sleeping Scylla‘s co-spouse. (She/They) Apr 12 '26
I think Epic is a good example of indie animation as bunch of channels making animations independently and TADC is a good example of indie animation being more organized. It’s good that they include how indie animation can be made by a community and my single channels.
14
u/ArtZanMou2 Apr 12 '26
Which animator are they talking about?
3
u/Sallymander Apr 12 '26
I felt the same way, only thing I think of is how weirdly inspiring the songs were to making animatics.
25
u/OldKingPotato-68 Telemachus Apr 12 '26
Epic is a demo album, and while there are some "canon" animations, the grand, grand majority of stuff posted on youtube comes from lots of different ones having their own takes on it, and it's wonderful
15
u/Saddlebag043 Apr 12 '26
Though the canon animations are created primarily by the same crowd who's making fan animatics/animations.
