After 'The Mighty Nein' lose their friend Yasha to sinister forces, Jester communes with The Traveler to make sense of the loss.
HAPPY FE-BOARD-ARY EVERYONE!
I can't believe in just one month this all came together for my first major storyboarding portfolio piece and also the start of what I imagine is going to be much more Critical Role content to come!
A little about this piece: I chose this audio almost entirely because of Sam's lack of timing as he decided to start loudly flipping through his notebook right in the middle of a very touching scene between Jester and her trickster god. I thought that was funny, and then I thought "oh... Actually ya know what? Jester could be looking through her sketchbook during their conversation and reflecting on the journey so far". And here we are a month later with my first portfolio piece! All the background noise worked out for the better lol.
In the end it was Laura and Matt's performances that really drove home that, yeah, I wanna animate this.
This piece is really special to me and I'm really proud of what it represents for me as a storyboard artist moving forward in my career.
For those interested, I post a lot of art and video updates on my Instagram @zaza_ink so look forward to more content (#criticalrole and otherwise) in the near future!
I have some fun ideas!
This audio is from Critical Role | Campaign 2 | Ep. 70 | Timestamp (1:53:35-2:01:0:45)

It is kinda the main question of the new campaign too. It shows the ideas that Matt has and sometimes it takes a campaign or two for the players to approach it

Really love how you added so many details in your animatic to add to the moment. Like the Traveler flipping through Jester's sketchbook to show her all the sad things she's already lived through, and the beautiful moments she had along the way. Kind of has this unspoken message of "Look how far you've come. You've already gone through a bunch of hardships, yet you're still here. Don't worry too much, you'll be okay." :')

Yes! You get it! That’s exactly what I felt like their entire conversation was about! Like Jester’s entire character journey revolves around the desire to travel and see the world because she’d been cooped up her whole life, but once she was out in the world on this journey with the Nein, there was just tragedy after tragedy. But this moment really captured the Traveler just comforting her in the knowledge that, a lot of bad happened, but a lot of good happened, and there will be more good to happen. Anyway, all this to say: thank you! That’s exactly what I was trying to help visualize!

oh this is absolutely lovely!!!! the motions of the characters feel so real, the incorporation of the pages turning is pristine, and the subtle expressions you give out (from a hooded character with their eyes covered no less!!!! that's really hard to do!) are wonderful to follow. Plus, whatever music you put on top of this gives it a nice quiet atmosphere. Well done!!!!! I'd love to see more!

Thank you so much!!! It was really fun coming up with the acting for this sequence for sure! Jester and Artagon were a really fun pair to start this storyboard journey with! As for the music I actually just found a dnd playlist on Spotify to listen to while I worked and just went “oh! Actually I’ll just use this music” 😂

Agreed! I have a running and ever-growing list of moments I've never seen animated that really stand out to me. There's a lot of content but hey! At least that means I have plenty of scenes to practice with! I'm really excited about the next one, it's gonna be Yasha-focused, and fun to make lol!

Incredible work, this is awesome!! I love all the details, like the map of Wildemount and Tal’dorei and the traveler picking up the island, Jester’s note to Molly, the drawings of Yasha’s eyes and then the “many eyes upon you” thing, so very atmospheric and very Jester, and also a little foreboding because of Matt’s use of eyes later on. All very cool stuff, keep it up!!

It's true though. People often ask why bad things are allowed to happen, especially those who believe in God or a higher power. Its so we appreciate the good, so we *desire* the good. We can only see the stars when the night falls, rainbows only shine after storms, and Hope has the most power in the face of despair.

@@DX795Q Bet you appreciate all the time you had with your dog and will love your next dog just as much if not more because of it. And that reminder of how precious and fleeting life is would hopefully make you appreciate the celebration of your own life, and the people who bothered to wish you well, all the more.

If I can offer some feedback, the volume of the music/sound effects drowned them out some.

Thanks for the feedback! I noticed that a lot when I was sound mixing too (definitely not my specialty lol)… I was using it to drown out the background noise of the other cast members so I could isolate just Matt and Laura but I guess that’s the struggle of working with podcast audio ya know? But anyway! Thanks for the feedback!
