✨GOD GAMES MAP behind the scene lore drop (1/2) POSTER by @brittpowwpixel
I dreamt up the God Games MAP way back in January/February this year while studying for medical board exams. If you are wondering which is more stressful and time consuming, exams or organizing and editing God Games... My exams were harder but it is extremely close.
I went about recruiting each artist in a pretty systematic and slightly creepy way. I was a fandom newbie at that time and had no connections. It was a mixture of randomly asking artists in their youtube comments, stalking their insta, and sending them friend requests and hoping they'd respond. At one point I send an email to a business account (Jiwoo is so famous 😄)...
If you are wondering how each artist was curated, I brought in a lot of artists who are beloved fandom staples, like @brittpowwpixel @joanacchi @official-orange-art @crashite @Laritamiauu @kisudoodles. I was especially partial to artists with distinctive styles and whom I felt was under rated for their level of insane talent. I could talk about how much I love these artists all day. I am especially blown away at how prolific, professional and just overall friendly and welcoming they are!
I invited a few artists whom I discovered halfway through the project, and they completely aced their part despite having extremely limited time and just absolutely blew me out of the water @HowlArnon @Sirell_Sasakoi, @peachyytown . These artists finished their part in less than a week to a month which is... insanity! These amazing heroes came in to fill in for artists who had to drop out, or shorten their parts.
Some artists I had seen 1 animatic from and immediately wanted to work with (@jiwooundercover_art 's Monster, @TheSmoolio 's Puppeteer, @BlattaTheBeetle's small Odysseus snippet). There were particular parts of the God Games song I hoped they would do (and they were thankfully happy to accept these parts such as the intro and climax, and was absolutely amazing at it).
An artist whose character designs I thought everyone needed to see @sciitikat (how amazing is their Apollo???).
An artist whose insane post-production I wanted to learn more about @rochichan, and whom I secretly wanted to make the piano post credits (I planned that far ahead in February, but didn't ask until late as I didn't want to pressure them). In the end, they improvised a God Games acoustic piece to my specification regarding time etc. That is crazy talent.
An amazing artist I hoped to bring out retirement, as I joked to my partner, @zieru (at that time only Dangerous was released). I was so happy they said yes! One of the goals of GG was to showcase Zieru again. ☺️
An artist I recruited when their first EPIC video had less than 600 views (I was that early). Because I got the feeling they were going to be legendary (@PimPichc ). And I was right!
There SO SO MANY amazing artists I hope to work with, but couldn't include! I had to consider how everyone's styles would come together to create a coherent final video. I hope I have the honor of working with them in the future.
By no means was everything perfectly planned. There are a lot of lessons I learned. I hope when I organize another one in the future it will be a lot of fun, with many new and fan favorite artists taking part!
✨GOD GAMES✨ Swipe to see Trailer thumbnail! Poster by @zieru We are 1 day away from the trailer dropping for God Games!

A project with 8 months of intense planning and organization.
A kaleidoscope of beautiful work from various artists in the EPIC: The Musical community will be displayed. I wished to shine a spotlight on underrated artists (in my personal opinion).
