Gilgamesh, part 1

Gilgamesh part 1 image

A puppet-animation based (loosely) on the Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh, and made entirely with open-source software, except for a short animated section at the end which was made with Flash MX.

In this episode, Gilgamesh incautiously boasts that he can beat anybody in a fight - even his patroness, the Goddess Aruru. When Aruru herself hears of his boast, she decides to send a new hero to challenge him. Episode 1 of 10.

You can see it on YouTube, on Vimeo, or (if you've got one of the newer browsers) on my website. Please visit http://edwardpicot.com/gilgamesh .
