Caleb gets knocked out, wakes up, casts fireball and blows up the enemy ship, and immediately goes back down from the flashback. Glass cannon indeed
The quintessential wizard. Wields the power of battle ending artillery but crumbles like wet paper when bonked on the head a little too hard.
The flaming boots for Caleb's expeditious retreat were a great touch
That’s the moment that always sticks with me for this animation.
It’s all great, but I love seeing the creative flairs for each spell cast
This fight was ICONIC, and you captured the action so well! From Caleb casting Wall of Fire to Fjord summoning the balgura, I got nostalgic chills!
I can't waitm to see this scene animated in the series! GONNA BE LIT!!!
I know that if the Monkey Paw is listening, lol. This scene setup really shows the action. You should be highlighted if/when they use it for ideas. Great work.
Fucking excellent audio layering. The selected audio was choice, and the decision to layer what was being said was a perfect way of keeping combat moving quickly and showing how things were happening simultaneously. This must have been a massive undertaking. Cool shit.
agree fully
I can only imagine how much time and effort it took to make this 😱
The last scene was partially animated 2 years ago (last vid).
So my guess is: a ton.
Coming from you that's saying a lot
I forgot half my education but I still remember this fight *vividly* .
Expertly done, *GJ!* o7
The little blush on Beau when Jester put her hand on her waist was a cute touch.
From the M9's individualized colors to the fire and blood, this was just a beautiful piece of art.
I forget how fucking smart the team was during this fight like they handled the scenario so intelligently and it makes me weirdly emotional cause the team dynamic is PHENOMENAL
This was excellent. Holy shit.I remember this whole sequence from a whiiiile ago and youve managed to supercut the timelessness of a 6-second turn into the confusion of real time battle confusion flawlessly. BRAVO!!
3:00 I love how Caleb face plants to the ground! 😂 ouch! 🤕
Bro the Barlgura animation was FUCKING SICK!
the audio editing on this is FANTASTIC, it really adds to the effect of "this is all happening simultaneously"
fantastic! I love the various ways you visualized the spells, and I also love how you intercut the dialogue! makes the scene much more frenetic :D
This is probably one of my favourite moments in CR, and I love that you were able to condense it into an 8 minute video, and give us visuals. Also going through and cutting up all the audio as well.
Jester's heart eyepatch in her pirate disguise was *chef's kiss*
This has so many good touches with stuff like seeing Calibs skinned face before he mentioned it and the great animation for nott slipping out of the guards arms. It was way more fluid than I expected as a whole.
dude this is PHENOMENAL. i love the way you spliced together the descriptions of what they're doing, it rly adds an extra layer to this. and the spells, the movements, everything is so fluid! you've earned my sub!
This is the most detailed animation I've seen of this scene. Everything is just so perfect.
I love your Nott design! :D She looks so agile and dynamic, and you captured her movement excellently!
I have to say, I have never seen a better DnD fight depiction in animation before. The background description of the fight just adds to it. Great job. Can't wait what they do in the TV show. Hope it's at least this good ;)
That audio compositing was a mountain to climb and you bore a roller-coaster through it all. Great job!
This fight was fantastic! I love your turning narrative flair like arrows through a shield into awesome visuals.
This is amazing! Absoloutely love how Evantica's coragrophy was when she got into the sword fight with Nott, since I think the hardest part of selling martial characters in role play is to try and viusalize those kinds of cool swings and stabs! The Balgura summoning scene? Super solid and even the psudoanimation of it landing? Good shit! Also, this is an 8 minute animatic! You should be proud of this since shit man, this was a lot of work and it is great!
EIGHT MINUTES?!!? And it's so good, you chose an excellent battle and brought it to life so well! The narration and music and everything works so well here! Amazing job!
The blush on Beau when Jester grabs her is a good touch
Hot damn this is so dynamic I LOVE it :D
MASSIVE props on how magnificently this turned out
The way you let lines and the DM lines merge was beautiful and super cool. Not to mention the animatic in general. Very well done
You have grabbed their identities so well! Super impressed with your artistic skills, and your audio choices were spot on. Thank you!
I just finished ep43 about a week ago!
This is so awesome, you truly do great work!
Amazing work! You captured that scene beautifully.
This must’ve taken an incredible level of patience to craft but I hope you know it turned out beautifully, can’t wait to see more from you
best animation of this scene i’ve seen so far. absolutely incredible.
The extra combat frames were so good, I liked the variable action when needed! Good sign of knowing what to animate and split your time into. Some wicked art frames with that fireball too and the expressions!
HOLY HECK THIS IS AMAZING!! The sound design is amazing as is the art and the scene transitions! beautiful
I like to listen to critical role episodes whenever I'm working on stuff I don't need to be fully focused on, but this one episode made me watch the whole way through. This animatic is insane, even better than I imagined the battle to be. It's one of those times in DnD when, somehow, everything works perfectly and everyone has their opportunity to be cool in their own way. I can only wish I once have the opportunity to play a scene half as fun as this one
...Holy hell, what a masterpiece. Hard to fathom how much time and effort you must have put in for it, but if the result is anything to go by, my god.
This was one of my favorite battles from all of critical role, so intense and vivid! This is my new favorite video! Thank you!!!
Everything about this is phenomenal, kudos on one of the best animatics I've seen period!! From the expert audio balancing and dialog cuts to the perfect depiction of the flow of combat, truly a fantastic work all around. 10/10.
You are SO GOOD at storyboarding these fight scenes, amazing work! I catch new fun little details each time I rewatch
That was absolutely incredible. 15/10. Amazing editing on the audio, illustrations are sooooo goood. I loved it. Like a dream come true. The actual animated adventures of Critical Role!!!
This was epic! Definitely worth a sub! From one CR fan and animator to another, great job!
Oh wow, this is a lot of good work! It flows really well. Thank you
Holy shit this was so well done! I love the way you cut in the cast described what was happening while it happened, simply beautiful
I have never seen dnd combat captured so perfectly in an animatic like this!! The audio editing alone is remarkable. This is AMAZING
Aaaa! You captured all the epic moments so well!
I had a feeling something BIG was coming from your channel since you haven't posted in two years before this was dropped. I can see why you waited, and it was 100% worth the wait! Incredible job! The audio mixing from different parts of the fight was expertly done, and the animating was tight, fast, and clean as sin! You did a marvelous job!
You've created such haste and urgency with this, not just the animation, but also your choice in cuts and editing. Fantastic, well done!
This is incredible, this fight was a top moment for me in the second campaign I still go back and watch these episodes often. You nailed the feel and I love how you mixed the audio between lines and Matt’s descriptions, so well done!
Goddamn, that’s a beautiful misty step. Hats off, my friend.
The layering, the colors, the way you’ve masterfully mixed the sounds, and the animation! This is a masterful 8 minutes of beautiful work
Amazing, with all the little details! My favorite is Jesters pirate disguise self with the heart eye patch. She'd do just that, awesome!
I've been waiting for an animated adaptation of this fight since I saw it live 4 years ago
Thank you very much!
This might be my FAVORITE fight of C2 and this animation brought back all the excitement of watching it the first time!
That was absolutely one of the coolest M9 animations I’ve ever seen. It was so wonderfully executed. Well done!
Also, I love how you've got everything woven together here. Double that for Jester's little heart eyepatch. Iconic.
Incredible! I comment your talent and patience to not only draw, but mix the audio in perfectly as well!
This is incredible! You did an amazing job! This is how I pictured it and it’s still even better! Thank you for this moment in the campaign and for your talent!
Great job. This is awesome. The visualization of the spells and the blood on weapon hits are amazing. Keep up the great work.
Also I kinda hope for a part two of this.
One of my fav episodes! This scene was so tense and you did an amazing job with this animatic.
Amazingly done! The animation capture all of the actions and emotions of the moment! 10/10
This is what I want from critical role animated
Aw man, this was amazing! I love how you kept the narration going along with the animation,it was so fluid!
I am here and present for ALL OF THIS! You did amazing!!! The angles, the facial expressions the effects are all just mwah mwah mwah!
I’ve seen bits of this fight animated before, but this one takes the cake!
The Beau blush is such a primo touch.
This is incredibile! It was absolutely worth the wait! I can imagine all the time and effort u put into it, so thank you really much :)
All of this was incredible, thank you for sharing!
This is amazing, I love seeing every hit and miss visualised!
Never thought I'd see the whole scene animated like this, I love the designs and action so much
Fantastic work! Always love watching your videos!
Absolutely brilliant effort. This captured the fight so well. The first ive seen of your works but now, not the last. Well done.
This whole video rocks, but I *love* Nott/Veth’s scuffle with Avantika. The motion of the stabs, dodges, and the follow up slash look so nice
One of my all time favorite scenes, thank you for animating it so beautifully
Wow! this is beautifully done
Adding the background music was great!
I’ve seen a lot of animatics and I must say this was my favorite, just for the creative choices in audio layering, style consistency, and overall timing of scenes. Great work!
What a great fight and what an exceptional animatic for it. Great work
That was crazy amount of work! All the sounds and action, all is packed so close, so densely. Massive 1.5 hour fight translated into perfect animated action scene!
Of the top-tier CR animatics for sure, this is huge!
Wow! This is stunning! I can’t believe I caught this within the first couple days, what an absolute masterpiece! Smooth where it needs to be smooth, jumps perfectly with comedic timing, perfectly accurate down to every minute detail of what’s actually going on. This is incredible!!
amazing job!! Thanks for this, it made my day :)
The whole thing?! Wow! God, this was a great fight. How awesome to see it laid out visually. Thank you for all the time and effort this must have taken, it was a real treat to watch!
This is fantastic! Thank you so much for making this!
Absolutely epic, C2 really was amazingly special. Thank you so much for the mountain of work this entailed.
this is a great visual for this fight! beautifully done!
This is so freaking awesome. I just restarted C2 and I'm loving all these old moments coming up again. Be proud, this came out great!
Oh my god this was absolutely incredible!! Fantastic work. :D
So badass, thank you for bringing the turn by turn wildness of this HISTORIC battle to life. Such a great job, thanks for your effort and contribution to the community!
Awesome! Very well done! Visuals are fantastic. Love the fluid movements, especially for Nott slipping up and out of that guards grip. Audio editing is also great.
great animation. i love the expresions you gave all the characters
absolutely fantastic work!
I love how you layered the audio on top of each other to really sell the feeling of urgency and desperation. This whole fight was intense! And you’ve conveyed it perfectly. Truly amazing!
This is crazy good well done. The amount of work put in looks crazy
Very good details on the eyes and additional streaks of colour for unique moments. Please keep at your work : )
YES!!! I have been waiting for someone to do this! AMAZING!!!!
This is so freaking good! 🔥🔥🔥❤️ You absolutely nailed this!
YES LETS GO!! I was looking for animatics of this just a few days ago! This was such a great fight and you captured it well! Props to doing an _8 minute long_ animatic as well, by the way- i could never
My absolute favorite CR battle and you captured it perfectly! Great stuff!
Holy SHIT!! This is so long and so well done, with all the cool dodges and attacks animated!! Bravo, 10/10! Thank you for animating one of thr most iconic fights in the campaign :DD
