Given the track record of my Channel, I did not expect this video to be so well received by everyone in such a short time. There are so many more talented CR animatics out there. So I truly appreciate all the lovely and beautiful comments from everybody. Everyone has been so kind. Truly thank you all. Cheers!
Somehow you added to this scene. The party members sleeping, the loneliness of Caleb's Tower - and the lonely camaraderie between Essik and Fjord, both because they are physically separate from the others AND because they are capable of making such hard and devastating decisions. Your portrayal of this is spot-on. One of my favorite scenes ever and you made it even better. Bravo.
Oh man, having the inevitable massacre play out at the end like that was inspired, and really hits home just how much of a brave decision that was for Fjord, especially as he's always been the one to try to save everyone when he can. I loved Essek reaching for the beacon only to recoil back too, there's so much guilt associated with that for him now I think.
The emotions you were able to convey with Essek’s body language and expressions... holy cow, it was absolutely amazing. I really loved the scene of him staring up at the stained glass dedicated to dunamancy, before promptly stepping away into the darkness. Everything about this animatic was stunning, each frame is a masterpiece by itself. Keep up the great work!
There is literally nothing about this that I do not adore. The entire beginning sequence where Essek finishes his trance and smiles at the Nein only to pass back into shadow has my entire heart, especially. Not to be dramatic, but I'm going to rewatch this for the rest of my life. Well done well DONE
Yeah I can only agree with the many glowing comments. Just a brilliant little bit of storytelling. The cinematography is excellent, those great details like the close ups of Fjord and Essik's lips as they make the decision, the general darkness and mood of the whole thing. Really love the art style as well - everyone always has their own take on the M9 and your renditions are fantastic. Its cool, like you used your medium perfectly. It's not fully animated but it so does not matter, and the emotional impact is just huge. Which again - just great storytelling. Well done!! Encore? Lol
I am at a loss for words. This... this has got to be one of the best animations of this series ive ever seen. The way you have portrayed the caracters, the subtle movements and mannerisms, the intense emotion going through essek's and fjord's faces... simply breathtaking. I'd love to see more of you in the future, keep it up
I stumbled across this over a month ago, and have thought about it at least once a week since then. So glad I finally found it again! I like the music, but I *LOVE* the art and the direction: the lighting, the angles, the slow pace. You really captured the initial quiet atmosphere, and then the gravity of the moment. I've seen many animatics, but to my mind none have come close to this one. Bravo.
I love all of this! Big Vivec vibes with how you drew Essek float-trancing and "standing up" at the beginning. Anyhow, really cool dark take on the whole thing!
Absolutely sensational!!! I can tell just how much love and hard work was put in every frame! Do remember us all when you become a massive TH-cam artist, because you honestly deserve all the praise!!! 👏
This is stunning!! It was a wonderfully tense moment in the show and to see it animated so beautifully makes me so happy. It gave me literal chills, very well done!
This is absolutely gorgeous!! The sound quality works for the scene. How I record sound for animatics: Screen-record the moment on my phone. Use a video to mp3 converter (plenty of free apps) and then if I need to edit the sound together I use Audacity sound editor on my laptop! Also a free software :)
This is absolutely incredible, and exactly how I pictured the scene at the time! His hand reaching up to the beacon in the dunamancy window? Perfection, honestly. Also I checked out your Instagram and your more cartoony style is (also) fantastic.
This is hands down the best animatic I've ever seen - every single frame is utterly flawless and it's so so clear that you invested so much time and care into this. Amazing!
Honestly this scene doesn’t seem to significant. But that just goes to show how with enough artistic love, just about anything can be made into something amazing. This is so wonderfully done.
Holy hot damn. That art is incredible and it really heightens the tension of the scene. All the shadows and those highlights really set the mood. Fantastic job.
holy SHIT MAN! this is incredible! this scene is one of my favorites of the entire campaign, and you completely did it justice. the emotion and tension you built was amazing, and the art looks awesome
This is so good! I love how you portrayed the intensity of this moment and how hard it was for the characters to make that choice. 11/10! I hope to see more CR animatics in the future! :D
This was so cool! Love the atmosphere you created that is equal parts peaceful and tense. Hope more people get the chance to see this because they will love it, and you deserve it for the work you put in. Have you posted this to the subreddit?
A MASTERPIECE!! this better get milions of views!! If you're looking for better audio tho you should be able to find this clip on youtube and find a youtube downloader online, they have pretty decent audio!
I've looked at a few TH-cam downloaders, but they all looked a bit dicey. I have a trauma with weird apps that gave me a nasty computer virus a while back and almost made me lose all my work... But if you can recommend one that isn't dicey, then please let me know.
The visual direction here and artwork is truly fantastic; I do wish you had a better recording of the audio though. Not too big of a deal, the visuals really do carry it.
If you have the ability to make a correction and then upload again, I suggest the following… At 1:25 and 1:48, you have "trope" in the subtitles. When referring to a military unit (as in this case), it should be "troop". And when referring to a performing group, it should be "troupe". A "trope" is something else entirely.
Thanks for catching that. English isn't my native language. hahah Also, unfortunately TH-cam does not let you edit existing videos without deleting and then replacing the entire video. Only edit audio or delete shots. Not replace shots. Bit of a bummer.
Thank you. Are you watching the second CR campaign? Most of this scène was my imagining of the moments in between Fjords and Esseks conversation. It was glazed over so fast, but the impact really got me when I sat and really thought about it.

Shivers. The BEST rendition of this moment yet.
Thanks man. I really appreciate that.

I love animatics that just focus on the lines. D&D adventures are so much more harrowing when you can't see what's happening inside their heads
Thanks. Thats what I was going for. Especially during this moment. I was so shocked!
oh OOF that ENDING tho. the implications of what Fjord decided, the aftermath of it all. you put it into such horrible reality.
There is literally nothing about this that I do not adore. The entire beginning sequence where Essek finishes his trance and smiles at the Nein only to pass back into shadow has my entire heart, especially. Not to be dramatic, but I'm going to rewatch this for the rest of my life. Well done well DONE
That's not dramatic. That's one of the highlights of my channels running time. Thank you so much for you lovely comment.
Fantastic. Honestly one of my favorite scenes this campaign, none of the other Mighty Nein in this situation would have made such a weighty decision.

This is fantastic. That ending sequence gives me chills every time.
I’ve also never seen someone capture the vastness of the tower the way you did.
Bruh the artstyle is just amazing itself but the sad music and the scene ugh my heart.
I am at a loss for words. This... this has got to be one of the best animations of this series ive ever seen.

Wow. Thank you for the high praise 😊
Holy Hell is this amazing, im sharing this everywhere! and im not gonna stop till Travis sees it.
This is amazing! WOW! The lighting and the build up! The attention to detail! Just all around this is a work of art and LOVE IT!
Wow! Such an amazing Animatic!
Just love the dark art and the music really set the scene. The end gave me shivers...
This is so amazing! I’m blown away by the ambiance and expressions in each frame. And the chills I got from each cut at the end were spectacular!
I love all of this! Big Vivec vibes with how you drew Essek float-trancing and "standing up" at the beginning. Anyhow, really cool dark take on the whole thing!
Absolutely sensational!!! I can tell just how much love and hard work was put in every frame!
Do remember us all when you become a massive TH-cam artist, because you honestly deserve all the praise!!! 👏
Haha, I'm not sure that will ever happen. But I appreciate the sentiment. Thanks :D
That was absolutely gorgeous!!! And the music struck just the right tone!
this bgm is the best for this moment
This is stunning!! It was a wonderfully tense moment in the show and to see it animated so beautifully makes me so happy. It gave me literal chills, very well done!
This is so incredible. The beauty, the subtlety - it's so majestic and haunting.
This was fucking incredible! I was speechless at that ending
