The Journey Continues (With a Short Break) 😄

Hello my friends!!! :D

When I first made this Patreon, I was deep in the process of writing EPIC. I had already written a bunch of songs, still had so much writing left to go, and I had a clear sense of where the story was headed. Because of that, I was able to regularly post Progress Updates, host Livestreams while working on songs in real time, and I was able to build something more intimate and personal with you all as I documented the creation process.

Right now, I find myself in an in-between phase of my creative journey where a lot of exciting doors have opened both for EPIC as a project and for myself as a performer and creator. As I figure out the next steps, from bringing EPIC to life, to diving into something new, I want to be extra intentional about the content I share here. My goal is always to give you the most value I can out of your subscription and provide you with the most engaging content.

With that in mind, I will be pausing this Patreon page for the time being. This means that current subscribers won’t be charged while the page is paused. The rest of the May content will of course be posted by the end of this month, but content after that will be put on hold. This will give me time to figure out how I want to move forward and how to best share the next part of this journey with you! :D Whether I unpause the page, move the page in a new direction, or close the page to focus on an alternative way to engage with you, I’ll be sure to keep you posted every step of the way.

Thank you all so, so much for supporting me throughout this journey. You guys have kept this dream alive and I’ll forever be grateful for that. On particularly busy and hectic days, I miss the simplicity of our movie nights. 💙 I love you all.

I also joined primarily to support you and Epic.I wouldn't be opposed to us all watching movies together, but if nothing else, I would ask you to leave us the option to continue to support you.

Karina Miller

Jorge, thank you so much for what you have created. You have given me and my family something so special. Grateful to you.

Jasmine López

I second Danny North, I signed up because Epic is amazing and left a deep impression on me. It affected me so much I decided to sign up for your Patreon purely to financially assist you in your process to evolve Epic. Whether it's an animated movie, a stage play, a video game, CD's, vinal records, or official Merch I want you to ( Shut up and take my money! ) * Insert futurama meme here.*

Sierra Shaw

good luck! ♡

Shaikha

I literally just joined and if you don’t give us any additional content, the content you have already given is incredible and I am happy to support you - because you are a Warrior of the Mind. If you decide to “shut down” your Patreon, please consider making tiers that are literally just to show support without any benefit because people like me will flock to support what you HAVE done and what you WILL do. Thank you!!

Danny North

You’re amazing!! Thank you so much for making such an incredible musical and building this community! Can’t wait to see where you go next!

MildlyPerturbed

Thank you so much for everything Jorge 😊☀️

Anastasia Boulard

Jay, you’ve been amazing and I hope that you can do everything you want to do with EPIC and beyond!

MydnyteRaven

Just don't do what A Voice From Darkness did to me and shut everything down :(

Lord Nevermore

then I came in just in time to say goodbye and good luck on this step of your journey! thank you for everything. I'm trying to get in touch with you because I localized the full musical to pt-br (it's been 2 months of almost daily work), and I won't share it anywhere until I have an OK from you. I hope to be a part of the brazilian adaptation. I'm seeing a few dubs popping up on youtube with people even claiming to be OFFICIAL, but the quality is way too questionable for it to be. anyways, I've got all you could want here, all you could need here, I hope my email finds you someday soon.

Manu Mello

Thank you so much for sharing this truly epic (pun absolutely intended) journey! From expressing your voice, creative vision and discovering steps to take in the very beginning to now being presented with new doors that will continue to help you express your voice and creative vision. I hope the path or multiple paths that present themselves are clear and your feet always find solid ground to land on. Until we meet again — First up, uncharted waters!

2 things 1 thank you for just epic as a whole I was shown it by my sister when I was in an I don't want to say depressed but weird point of my life where I was just a stressed-out mess and then my sister showed me epic and I felt like I found my purpose in this silly little musical and because of it greek mythos as a whole and heck I STILL GET THAT FEELING TODAY and it is amazing and 2 thank you for putting the page on pause because most people would just take their money and run and as much as it makes sense to want money it's still greedy and I am SO GLAD you didn't do that

the_soda_boi

mr jalapeño!!!! i felt out of place being so new to epic, having found it just this february, but finding all these little communities made me feel very welcome!!! the amount of love and dedication you have for your arts is so awe inspiring !!!!! thank you so much for your music 🫶🫶🫶

jayden

Y'all are making me cry with your kindness in these comments 😭🙌🏼💙 I love you all so much!

Jorge Rivera-Herrans

Jorge thank you so much for taking me on this entire journey with you! I have enjoyed hanging out and also learning from you. I’m grateful for you and the community that you have created. I will forever think of Spirit and you when I hear a narrator. But truly I have enjoyed watching you create epic and just seen you grow both as a person and epic these past years. I have also seen your hair grow but that also makes sense. But really thank you so much for letting me be here ☺️

Kimmie Jensen

No worries Jorge! You always put us fans first, so I'm happy to see you putting yourself first :) We are here to support and love you no matter what comes of this page! ❤️

Soli Sahagun

Jay, you have been such an inspiration and I hope whatever you do in life, it leads to many exciting adventures! Good luck and take care of yourself!

Rebecca Fox

Thank you Jorge! I decided to join this Patreon because of how much love I, the community, and the creators have for epic and I wanted to find some way to help support that love <3 can’t wait to see what’s in store for both your personal journey and bringing epic to life. Thank you for bringing this dream alive for the world to enjoy

Hailie Cruz

And here I am ahead of the curve and already cancelled my subscription lol. Looking forward to potentially supporting you again in the future <3

Blitz

I wouldn't even care if you posted nothing, I would still pay for this. It feels illegal to be enjoying the masterpiece that is EPIC for free. Thanks Mr. Jalapeño

Sacrem

Thank you for always being so honest with us! We support your art, and more importantly, the time you need to take for yourself!

Kory Misun
