listen it's not that I think epic the musical is a perfect adaption of the odyssey but it was an impressive passion project that knew what it wanted to be and knew what people gravitated to in the original work and it put significant effort into conveying this through its unique medium and tone to the point that hundreds of other people felt compelled to put effort into their own artistic interpretations of that version of the story. and that's really cool! and yes I would be more critical if it was a 100 million dollar project made by a professional because what the fuck do you mean you're a world-famous director and you cut the my name is nobody scene are you goddamn serious

It's gotten to the point where someone describing media as a "turn your brain off and have fun!" thing just pisses me off. I don't want to turn my brain off. I would like to keep it on to have fun.

side by side, they were very much alike, in similarity less of lineament than of manner and bearing, a correspondence of gesture which bounced and echoed between them so that a blink seemed to reverberate, moments later, in a twitch of the other's eyelid. their eyes were the same color of gray, intelligent and calm.

“We knew that the producers were developing a new language for the actors to speak on set. We had a document that was shared with [dialect coach] Marina [Tyndall], the person tasked with generating this language. We would ask her what ‘patisserie’ was in Ghorman, and she would invent it. So, I asked both [graphic designers] Elle [McKee] and Lauren [Dix] to generate fonts: High Ghor and Low Ghor. In our head canon, it was one for the upper class and one for the lower. But we mixed them all in together on the street. The plaza only had High Ghor. So often, we have a planet that has one font or language, when, in reality, it would have several.” — Barry “Baz” Gingell

“We were given a brief to create a font for a planet inspired by art deco, 1920s–’30s northern Italy—classical, rooted in history, and high-end. I was inspired by roman numerals and symbols, and the shapes found in classical fonts such as Times New Roman. I then used these stripped-back shapes from simple Roman numerals to create reimagined classical lettering. Despite being different, they do hint to the shapes of Latin letters we know today.” — Lauren Dix

“Ghorelle is one of two lettering styles created for Ghorman, serving as the more formal of the pair—comparable to our use of capital letters. To reinforce the vision of Ghorman as a refined, well-established city that aligned with the architecture of the set, we looked at lots of European signage and ended up drawing inspiration mostly from classical Roman letterforms. This was such an enjoyable graphic to work on, and I was able to lean on some of the things I learned as a signwriting apprentice, where I was taught the fundamental rules of lettering structure—knowledge that doesn’t often come up in the Star Wars universe!

“Ghorelle syllables are separated with spaces intentionally to create shorter ‘words,’ so sequences generally remain concise. This allowed us to play around to make signs and words that looked good and worked with the dimensions we had, so we could be led by aesthetics! The name Ghorelle is a play on my own name, Elle.” — Elle McKee
