Nott looking at her drink, seeing her reflection and then slamming down her beer is the BEST visual metaphor I've seen in a while. All your transitions are incredibly smart, I'm in awe 😍
Your comment made me curious about the reason why Caleb would put his hands inside bread as I knew nothing about Critical Role at the time. I am now fully caught up with all three campaigns and DM for my friends. Funny how a single comment can change someone's life, but I thank you for it
Oh I love this, I've watched this five times in a row now. I love the transitions with Jester turning into Astrid, and Caleb turning into Luc - so good. And Veth being torn between her family and the Nein, especially Caleb. Missing her old family but hating to leave her new one. I love all these characters, but I've got a soft spot in my heart for Nott and Caleb.
What you said about Beth being torn shows strongly, especially now. She recently told Yeza how she wants to have a life with him and her child once all this is over. She definitely seems torn but it makes me worry about how much longer we have with the nein and this campaign.
Dang, that transitions of Caleb and Jester waltzing, then suddenly its Astrid, Then suddenly its Veth and Luc stabbed my heart three times in quick succession
Broo all of your transitions are stunning. My favorite is when Caleb is dancing with jester and it turns into Astrid on the line, "I still dream of you" so good. I also adore how you draw Nott, her legs and feets are A+ as is her small snout. This song fits the two of them incredibly well and I feel like you did quite a good job encapsulating their dynamic, from odd parental projection to being best friends, and pretty much how they are ultimately there for one another. Great work!
Ughhhhh!!!! I love the correlation between Molly giving Caleb the forehead kiss when he was getting in his own head and then Caleb doing the same to Essek later on, it really showed how much Caleb grew as a character and allowed himself to soften up his calloused being
I got to the part where Caleb dancing with Jester turned to Veth and Luc, thn I started crying. This entire thing, with all the transitions, like Yasha's hair turning into fire, Molly pulling him back to reality, the entire dance scene... And I love the end scene, with Caduces being a bit slumped and Molly's spirit still hanging around... This is probably my favorite Critical Role Animatic so far and I've seen *a lot* of them.
"some nights I'll still dream of you" - so perfect for Nott's headspace in relation to Caleb. That transition from Yeza to Caleb lying by the fire is *chefs kiss*
"First fan animatic" how can this be true? This is so perfect. I loved the use of color , I loved the way you transitioned from scene to scene using common elements like the fire, and how you used that to show veth and caleb at different points in their lives, I thought the imagery was beautiful. Incredibly done.
Caleb and nott's relationship is so unique, special and beautiful that not even in several stories do they have that depth or understanding that they face making them more human than characters from famous stories and also with the music that you took out did you show off a very good job Cheers
!!!!!!!!!!! oh i ADORE the focus on not just caleb's journey and his growth, but also Veth's and how intertwined they are and what they see in each other, if. that makes sense??? it made me so happy :)
caduceus is such an important part of Fjord's story now but it makes me think about Molly and how Taliesin would of used him to push someone else's story, probably Caleb's.
THAT WAS SO GOOD. THAT LINK WITH THE LYRICS, THOSE TRANSITIONS. At the start, "come with my boy i want to show you something more" when Nott takes Caleb's hand was amazing. That circle around caleb, astrid and eodwulf as caleb starts crying, jester turning into astrid with the lyrics going "i still dream of you", that gut-wrenching parallel between Luke and Caleb, Nott looking into the glass at her reflection, ugh everything in general the Mollymauk kiss on the forehead later continued with Caleb kissing Essek Veth coming backkk
such a beautiful summary of the M9’s and especially Veth and Caleb’s journey. the transitions were so clever and the song will go straight to my m9 playlist
I just keep coming back. Everything about this is perfect. The visuals are incredibly well animated and thought through, the song makes my heart ache for the characters, everything. I just keep coming back, and I expect I will for years.
THIS IS SO GOOOOOOOOD, the bit with veth's family transforming into caleb at "but some nights I'll still dream of you" GOT me. and those transitions are FANTASTIC.
The transition of Jester -> Astrid is one I've seen before, and you did it very well. Then panning over to Nott and having her look back to see her Halfling self dancing with her son is just aahhhh
Just found this and the imagery and transitions are incredible, flowing into the music flawlessly. I'd love to see someone take a real crack at animating this into a music video!
I know I’m a bit late in the game to this video but I can’t explain just how beautiful this is. Broke my heart only to piece it back together at the end seeing how far they came, thank you for this.
Gods this is one of the best I've seen period. If anything else the last still with the party all in a line before the last seconds is just so powerful and amazing. I love it so much.
I watched this sooner than I probably should have (there are some mild spoilers inside), but holy hell it just keeps getting better the more of the show I watch. You buried so many great touches in here.
Something I love about good videos like this is that they take a song that are not that interested in and they give them context, and show how the song can apply to something so much better than just the bass lyrics. Well done 💛
Wauw. Seeing this, getting reminded of all the great stories of Campaign 2, both of joy and loss, combined with this music, brought tears to my eyes. Really well done.!
Guhhhh I keep coming back to this animatic, it's *so goddamn beautiful*. I think all the other comments have pointed out all the amazing scenes and visual-to-line sync-ups. Everything about it is so gentle and heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time, and all the parallels you've drawn are just beautiful. This lives rent-free in my brain at all points, and I love it.
So much of this is so so good, and the last scene with them walking, especially when Molly appears behind Yasha always makes me tear up. Wonderful work ; - ;
YOOOOOO This is insanely good. The song choice fits so perfectly and you captured them beautifully. I can't imagine how long this took, it gave me chills

CALEBS HANDS INSIDE THE BREAD!!! Such a wonderful little touch.
I can't see find it...time stamp, please?
@@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi I think it's at the 0:44 second mark.
@@jaimegallegos1314 ah,yes thank you

Quote meme: "It´s beautiful - I´ve looked at this for five hours now."
That part made me cry

Dagger, Dagger, Dagger!
I literally said _"oh no"_ out loud when Caleb turned into Luc. You hurt my heart in the best way.
Oh god SAME I instantly began to sob.

Can Liam and Sam just have their characters be married in campaign 3... This is a gorgeous representation of their story!
"some nights I'll still dream of you" - so perfect for Nott's headspace in relation to Caleb. That transition from Yeza to Caleb lying by the fire is *chefs kiss*
And...I still get teary-eyed from anything that is Molly.
This is so well done! You are amazing! 💜
This is so so sweet, I love all the little details and the pops of color you’ve given each character ❤️ I love this so much
the way i'm crying in this study room wtf

This should be the official video for this song I must have watched it 5,000 times
Caleb and nott's relationship is so unique, special and beautiful that not even in several stories do they have that depth or understanding that they face making them more human than characters from famous stories and also with the music that you took out did you show off
a very good job
Cheers
That was incredible. The transition you put in from the present and the past has brought tears to my face. That was amazing, great work
[quietly] oh my god,,, the skill,,,
Molly on Yashas back in the end 😭
!!!!!!!!!!! oh i ADORE the focus on not just caleb's journey and his growth, but also Veth's and how intertwined they are and what they see in each other, if. that makes sense??? it made me so happy :)
caduceus is such an important part of Fjord's story now but it makes me think about Molly and how Taliesin would of used him to push someone else's story, probably Caleb's.
I love the pacing & the first scene with Caleb and Nott in prison was amazing! Great transitions btw with present and past!
All the details are so perfect.
The facial features
The lighting
The transitions
I wish I could like this video twice
I cried when it got to Veth's family... curse you! *sniff*
holy shit I did not expect to tear up when Caleb transformed into Veths kid, that was brutal man
THAT WAS SO GOOD. THAT LINK WITH THE LYRICS, THOSE TRANSITIONS. At the start, "come with my boy i want to show you something more" when Nott takes Caleb's hand was amazing. That circle around caleb, astrid and eodwulf as caleb starts crying, jester turning into astrid with the lyrics going "i still dream of you", that gut-wrenching parallel between Luke and Caleb, Nott looking into the glass at her reflection, ugh everything in general
the Mollymauk kiss on the forehead later continued with Caleb kissing Essek
Veth coming backkk
I just binged about a hundred animatics today but this. This one was my favorite. 😍
such a beautiful summary of the M9’s and especially Veth and Caleb’s journey. the transitions were so clever and the song will go straight to my m9 playlist
The ending with Molly's ghost on Yasha's back killed me
The forehead kiss parallels teared me up...this whole animatic is a wonderful trip between the past and present
Jester and Caleb dancing turning into Veth dancing with Luc, was unexpected but definitely not unwanted.
3:30 why must you kill me with his presence, anything with him STILL harms me
These are the feels that I hope to get from the upcoming show.
I still fucking melt at Caleb Mirroring Molly...
I just keep coming back. Everything about this is perfect. The visuals are incredibly well animated and thought through, the song makes my heart ache for the characters, everything. I just keep coming back, and I expect I will for years.
Nothing I can say that isn't better said already here but yeah, absolutely fantastic. Puts me right into that emotional space.
I’d love to see this fully animated one day!
This is such an amazing story telling of Notts and Calebs story... it’s beautiful
Straight up goosebumps
THIS IS SO GOOOOOOOOD, the bit with veth's family transforming into caleb at "but some nights I'll still dream of you" GOT me. and those transitions are FANTASTIC.
would sell my soul for these character designs in the show
I didn't need to cry today, but here we are.
I love how you drew Veth and Yezzick
The transition of Jester -> Astrid is one I've seen before, and you did it very well. Then panning over to Nott and having her look back to see her Halfling self dancing with her son is just aahhhh
WHY HAS NO ONE TOLD ME FOR 7 MONTHS THIS IS SO WELL DONE, SO MUCH THOUGHT, ALL SO BEAUTIFUL I DON'T HAVE WORDS
oh my god I just noticed in the beginning of the video (within the first minute) nott is eating a worm and. oh my god I cant
Don't worry, I have mercy.
Because it is fantastic.
Just found this and the imagery and transitions are incredible, flowing into the music flawlessly. I'd love to see someone take a real crack at animating this into a music video!
this whole thing is absolutely amazing but 2:47 to 3:00 made me gasp. i love this!
I know I’m a bit late in the game to this video but I can’t explain just how beautiful this is. Broke my heart only to piece it back together at the end seeing how far they came, thank you for this.
lovee Nott's cat-like design!
Oh my lord, when Molly showed up at the very end hanging with Yasha, that got me crying.
Mollymauk is scientifically proven to be great for mental health
NO THIS IS TOO GOOD I WASN'T READY IT JUST KEPT BEING AWESOME
OH MY GOD THE GHOST MOLLY AT THE END!!!! I LOVE IT ALL
This is gorgeous. I have yet to see an animatic as clean, well transitioned, and character accurate. Beyond stunning!
This
*This is nice*
edit: Teared up near Nott's, gods damn it
The last scene with Molly floating behind them all made me cry. Thank you. 😭
That transition of caleb to luc to veth dancing- broke my heart 😭💖💖
Gods this is one of the best I've seen period. If anything else the last still with the party all in a line before the last seconds is just so powerful and amazing. I love it so much.
Ah fuck. It hit me in the Face when Caleb swapped for Luc. I've never seen any other animatic show that connection and it made me Cry.
THE ESSEK PART I LOVE IT HERE
Damnit.... STOP MAKING ME FEEL....I love this too much
I forgot the name of this and spend 30 minutes searching, well now I found it and it was worth it
This is SO heart touching! I never new it, but I needed this. Thank you for making this!
This explained all that was needed with out a word and it was beautiful
Ooh, this good. I mean, I didn't need to cry today, but totally worth it!
Thank you for spending time on this
AMAZING I LOVE THIS!! All of the connections between the characters, how Nott is torn between her two families, who is in the shadows etc amazing
The kiss from Molly, the transition with the dancing, the wonderful song.... my sore heart is singing
I watched this sooner than I probably should have (there are some mild spoilers inside), but holy hell it just keeps getting better the more of the show I watch. You buried so many great touches in here.
well I just found my go to bed video. thank you for this blessing.
Oh man this, this genuinely made me cry. With the story being over and watching this just now?? I am *balling* my eyes out.
Again so so emotional. The transitions between the flashback scenes was just so so amazing and I am in awe. Thank you so much for gracing us with this
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE SONGS RN AND I LITERALLY AM CRYING HELP
This is amazing! Beautiful!
I can't believe I only found this now, it's incredible! Great choice of song, I love the way you draw the Nein!
THE FEELS TvT
This made me tear up, I love every second of it QAQ
Tears! I can’t believe you made me cry right before I have to go clock in
Something I love about good videos like this is that they take a song that are not that interested in and they give them context, and show how the song can apply to something so much better than just the bass lyrics. Well done 💛
thank you for putting molly in at the end. that made me tear up in the best way, truly beautiful song and animatic
The scene with not fantasizing of her family is very well done
I am so glad someone used this song. I've listened to it for months waiting for someone to make a critical role animatic
I knew this song had Caleb vibes!
I want to like this more than once. You made me tear up. ❤️
this is amazing. the storytelling in this and the transitions that knit them together are so, so good.
I LOVED THIS SO MUCH!!! THE TRANSITIONS OMG !!
THIS is PERFECT use of this song. Amazing.
Beautiful! I especially love the picture of Nott looking into her glass. And the transitions are all so perfect!
I'm sorry that I'm quite selfish, but I loved this so much I want more. the art is great, and the story told with the song is beautiful
Wauw. Seeing this, getting reminded of all the great stories of Campaign 2, both of joy and loss, combined with this music, brought tears to my eyes. Really well done.!
This is so good. It made me cry. The song is so perfect and the transitions feel right like the pacing and everything is amazing
This is just amazing.. I i just can't
Dang it, why does this make me feel so many things!!
This was perfect and beautiful and it should be canon.
OMG!!! That was so lovely! I'm gonna go rewatch it like 10 more times now!

One the absolute best I’ve seen. Made me tear up.
You did such an amazing job. I could watch this over and over
So much of this is so so good, and the last scene with them walking, especially when Molly appears behind Yasha always makes me tear up. Wonderful work ; - ;
YOOOOOO This is insanely good. The song choice fits so perfectly and you captured them beautifully. I can't imagine how long this took, it gave me chills
