Hey guys!!
After 4 months of working on this video I have finally finished it! This is another short documentary on the cast of Critical Role and how they came to be who they are today! To note I did not add any campaign 3 items in as that is still moving forward and didnt want to add spoilers! I also did use footage from the previously posted video series of 'Between the Sheets'.
Thank you @criticalrole for being such an awesome cast and there are a few hidden messages for you! Thank you for inspiring me to create such a piece! And if you want something more official, let me know ; )

I DO NOT OWN ANY TITLES OR CONTENT THAT WAS USED IN THIS VIDEO. THIS IS A FAN EDIT.

I'm glad someone put effort into preserving these interviews. I was hoping that if CR didn't do it, some one would.

Haha is it wrong that I hoped to be the first before Critical Role could do it? 🤣

@@StandProductions do you have the full interviews of the cast saved? i would love to be able to watch them in full if you could share the files

@StandProductions 6 месяцев назад

@@mightytoothpick Hey! Personally I would love too, but first it is not my content and I dont have any rights to post it, as well as wanting to respect the cast and their decision to remove the videos. (In the end I have a feeling the company may ask that I remove them if I did)

@Ozgarthefighter 5 месяцев назад

@StandProductions Just the fact that the content is out there still is some comfort. Regardless of how things turned out with BF, those interviews were really special. Hopefully, CR will find a way to re-release them.

Thank you or preserving this. Between the Sheets were some of my favourite stories told by the cast; the ones that made me fall in love with them as people, not just their characters. You have revived an integral part of CR history, and- me personally- I think the community owes you a debt.

@StandProductions 9 месяцев назад

@teramarhauer 9 месяцев назад

From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU for putting this together. Between the Sheets was something that I replayed quite often.

@KadiaGray 9 месяцев назад

Honestly, I had opened this to save and watch later - I was tired, ready to sleep... I watched the whole thing then and there. I never got a chance to watch the interviews while they were up, as I was on a mission to catch up to the "Live" show for 2.5 years. I finally did as of two weeks ago. This... this takes all my love of the cast to a new level. I've always known them through one show or another, but this presentation of them holds all the pieces that make up the heart of who they are. How they got here. Why we feel so much watching them play a game together. Thank you for this. It's beautiful.

@StandProductions 9 месяцев назад

That is an accomplishment! and thank you for your kind words and I agree, I found CR through Ashley and Laura by The Last of Us 2 and wanted to watch more, I know it was a spoiler, but i started watching CR with the epic cupcake clip and no turning back, I had no clue what was going on but their reactions to that moment got me hooked immediately :D

12:40 - The wild part is: I have been a fan of Matt's since TWBB. That's how I learned of him because I would go to their website and wait every week for it. Came across Laura with Bloodrayne and was instantly a fan of hers in 2003... What? I fell in love with her voice. It was funny because her characters would be my favorite in the various games before I learned her name.
