Trying to calm my nerves by editing in Photoshop. Ended up trying to make Belle resemble Emma Watson more. :D

PS: I really really hope that I will like this movie more than I did “Cinderella” from last year. :o

A few months ago, I said on this blog that in my head PJO is an anime with a badass opening credits. I meant it quite literally, like I can actually picture this OP in my head, with all the shonen tropes like Percy walking around pretty backgrounds, cool fighting scenes with lots of camera movements and huge statues of the Gods standing ominously in the background, Nico standing in the rain till Reyna and Hazel and Jason come for him and a ray of sunshine breaks throught the clouds and light hits his hopeful face, GIMME ALL THE TROPES hahaha. Doing the whole opening would be impossible for a single person but I really wanted to try one big “shonen” group shot, so here you are !!! This actually took me AGES, I’m not kidding, the folder for this on my computer is named “batshit crazy ” for a reason, it may not look like it if you don’t know animation but a really huge amount of work went into this. I think it’s actually the biggest thing I ever did for a fandom. I can’t say how many hours I spent on it since I didn’t count, but let’s say I started this in September and spent a lot of week ends and most of my Christmas holidays on it, and I just finished it this week. I had a lot of fun though !!! And I learned a lot too, this was my first time trying to animate japanimation style, with not many in-betweens and ultra dynamic poses. So yeah, I hope you guys will like it !

I want to thank fimyuan and bisexualjason for keeping me motivated with their lovely comments through the project, even when I was complaining about my own decisions to animate friggin’ skeletons, hahaha. Another big thank you to my friend Wekake who went through the animation frame by frame and spotted all the little compositing mistakes that remained ;p

A few words on the process : I animated and colored everything in TV Paint, drew the background in Photoshop, and composited everything in After Effects. The song is an extract of the Yowapeda opening “Reclimb” by Rookiez is Punk’d because I wanted something very distinctively shonen but no lyrics, and I like that song ^^ I animated directly without any model sheet references which is definitely not how you should do it, hahaha, hence the design inconsistencies, but honestly even my madness had its limit and I didn’t want to spend more than a year on this thing ;p

Apollo: Listen, Percy, I really need your help with this whole fallen god thing--

Percy: Absolutely not.

Annabeth: Listen, Percy, I really need your help with this whole Norse cousin sea voyage thing--

Percy: Yes. What do you need? When do we leave? I'm calling my dad right now. I think I can convince some other sea deities to help. Are you okay? I love you--

Lmao remember when Frank thought Percy and Annabeth were screwing on the Argo II

[eclarliteacademy]

remember that time when Annabeth Chase emailed a picture of her on vacation, and Percy Jackson printed it off and kept it inside his school book when they were tHIRTEEN YEARS OLD

I love the diversity of religion in Rick Riordan’s books because even though they are literally living proof that the greek/norse/roman/egyptian gods exist, everyone is still kind of just like ‘yeah I know but I’m still muslim’ etc. and its just totally accepted. People just let people believe what they want to believe. Its chill. 

And at the same time, the Gods don’t even cross out the other possibilities. People in the underworld see what they believe, which is really interesting. In the latest book (The Hidden Oracle) Apollo offhandedly mentions how other religions and even science still function regardless. It basically means that whatever you believe, it is completely valid, no matter what. And I think that is an important message to take from his books.

Reasons I desperately want the Voltron/Korra people to make a Percy Jackson cartoon:

They wouldn’t have to do anything but animate it because the dialogue is already perfectly written

You can slap an educational label on it for the parents, but it’s way too entertaining for kids to care

There’s more than enough material for 5+ seasons, and no end in sight

There’s a huge built in fanbase 

Animation means no terrible live action effects

IMAGINE THE MERCHANDISING OH MY GOSH like just imagine the Argo II Lego set!! and CHB shirts at Hot Topic and Festus on everything

They clearly know how to capture/choreograph water-based fight sequences (Also imagine Jason, Leo, and Hazel air/fire/earth bending)

As far as I know, Fox still holds the adaptation rights. Meaning, they could probably contract the animation studio to make the show and then air it one of their networks 

Seeing Rick go from, “Movie? What movie?” to “Lol yeah, I wrote that.”

Representation. Like a cartoon made with kids with ADHD and dyslexia in mind? Yes please. Main characters of all different races/backgrounds? Gotchu. Gays? Doesn’t get gayer than Greek mythology. 

People loudly and proudly supporting team Greek or team Roman 

Also people sporting their Godly parent like a Hogwarts house

The very first Percabeth kiss breaking the internet. 

Nico Di Angelo breaking the internet. 

Characters dying onscreen and it being traumatizing but necessary

Getting to see whats going on at both camps simultaneously and filling in some of the gaps

Kids getting to grow up with Percy in a completely new way
