      I can't stand the character myself. Impatient, immature, demanding, rude, obnoxious, talking over other characters as they try to make the best decision while jester is demanding they take the least intelligent course of action possible. and the voice laura uses just kind of makes it worse. I'm aware I'm the minority, but damn how did I get so unlucky to hate the character so much while everyone else loves it? lol. Laura is great, but I really dislike this character. it's like nails on a chalkboard every time jester is in the spotlight.

      @@30ART5 the 180 rule is a sort of guideline that states that characters should maintain consistent orientation on the screen to lessen confusion and make it easier to follow for the viewer! say if a character is shown to the right side of the screen, they should stay appearing on the right side of the screen. it's easier to explain with an image, and it makes More Sense why it's called the 180 rule when you can see a diagram, so i recommend giving a google if you're curious to learn more!

    The way you make them move especially Jester’s (look at her tail OMG!!!) and Nott’s movements just captures their personality! Every little detail in this was greatly enjoyed down to the subtle actions like Beau and Fjord waving at them and all the little shifts in all of their expressions!❤️👌

    Spoiler under the thing! (Kinda)
    Watching this now knowing about Caleb is amazing. The fact that Liam stuttered when saying his name “it’s uh C-Caleb” plays so well into the fact it’s not his real name. “Its not my real name. It’s just the name I gave you” phenomenal foresight by Liam. Love his acting.

    The way he animated Jester's little movements perfectly shows her personality. Picking up the chair and walking over them, getting in Caleb's face before backing off. Her shaking her arm up and down when Caleb didn't shake her hand, something Laura Bailey actually did since she went for a handshake, and the 'WHOO' of victory. Plus the tiny detail of Nott putting her mask on immediately when Jester shouts to them is so subtle i only JUST noticed it right now when i have watched this like a hundred times already.
