I loved this web series so much!!! Just wondering if the different filming styles for each episode were done to reflect the god that they featured? If so how did you decide which style for each god? If not why did you choose to use all the different styles? Thanks :)
Hello, so very glad to hear you enjoyed it!
So yes, the different film styles were very deliberately chosen to be another tool to develop the character/tell the stories of the god we had chosen to feature with (note: if you haven’t watched watched yet, there aren’t really any spoilers below here, but I do talk a lot about some cool stylistic stuff which is way more fun to watch than it is to read about. Just saying). Since every episode is essentially a character study, we wanted both the shooting style and the genre of the episode to reflect that god’s character.
Poseidon and Apollo for instance: they both have rather big personas. Poseidon has his (albeit very charismatic) ego, and his episode manifests itself in the documentary/mockumentary format, which best showcases that ego, and places him at the center of things without doing any of the work. Apollo, similarly, has the blog thing going, but it puts her completely in control of her world and the narratives that surround her… or so she thinks.
Also we have episodes like Zeus and Hera: Zeus is a fast paced, in the moment, impulsive sort of character, which is reflected in his episode by the one shot dynamic, condensing the life of an insane party into just a matter of minutes, the action and drama constantly bombarding him. Here’s episode is the exact opposite: the pieces of her episode come together slowly as they track the course of a four year relationship with Zeus. The pacing and the story telling aspects of the episode are all in place to bring you into Hera’s world, to see how long she’s been invested in, and contained by, her relationship.
Then there’s something like Dionysus, which doesn’t really advance the plot of the series, comes out of nowhere, and has little to no impact on anyone else but is directly inspired by its title character. It’s flashy, fast paced, loud and fun… just like a musical number.
We tried to make each episode’s style as distinct as the character it focuses on in order to make their differences and characteristics shine even brighter.
Thanks so much for the question, keep them coming! - Ed
Long before the young adult craze took over bookstores and movie theaters, there was Greek mythology. Endowed with supernatural powers but still unmistakably human in their emotional volatility, gods like Zeus, Hera and Ares were in many ways the forerunners to more contemporary figures like Harry Potter, Bella Swan and Katniss Everdeen. While the youth of these …

So I’m the one who did the art for the Herc episode(s), and my two favorite drawings that I did ended up on the same screen!
Want to know what the hell this is about? Check out Pantheon University! It’s completely released and very binge-able.
I really love the series it's so varied and so brilliant imo, not at all what I expected but a great surprise. I was wondering if there is a reason you chose to order the playlist the way you guys ordered it. Also if there is any way you guys could add closed captions that would be super awesome!!!
Hey - thanks for the support and the love!! Amazing to hear at the end of a long day :)
The ordering is simultaneously random and purposeful, the result of a giant puzzle, to be honest. Some episodes needed to be in a certain relation to others, some relied upon information from others, and some could stand on their own. We tried to balance the humor and the drama and make sure that while you’re guessing at times, all of your questions are eventually answered. For example, Poseidon and Artemis raise a lot of questions that Apollo answers. Aphrodite informs Ares. Hera needed to be before the finale in order to pull you back to the party and make sure her and Zeus’ arc concluded. It can be watched in whatever order (besides the finale), though we do think this order makes the most sense dramatically. If you have a better order though, or found an order that gives an entirely different reading, we would LOVE the hear it.
We will absolutely try to work on closed captions. I (Imogen) am in the midst of insane thesis work and Ed is about to close a show, but once we push through the mad times we’ll return to make some tweaks and improve the viewing experience.
Hope that answers everything!! All the best.
Pantheon University: Discuss
If you’ve watched it, I want to know what you think!! Talk to meeeee!
The time has come, my friends, for the release of TUTV and Neat-O Productions’s newest web series, Pantheon University!
All of the episodes have been released, and while you may watch them in any order you like, we suggest beginning with Zeus and following the annotations at the ends of the videos, or simply watching straight through on the playlist (make sure you don’t have it on shuffle!)
Feel free to live-blog, begin discussions, create screencaps and gif sets, fan art and fanfiction, headcanons and analyses.
Shoot us some asks, tag us in posts, but most of all, interact with your fellow demigods.
Happy watching!
