CRITICAL ROLE ANIMATIC - "Character Creation: VEX & VAX" [EverythingIsContent]

[@lolli_popples]

“Remember, we have distain and cheekbones.” I’m dying

[@feyefall4855]

Y'know it's really hard to remember that Liam and Laura are not biological siblings sometimes.

[@benjaminoechsli1941]

Yes! Vex and Vax (excuse me, Lexi and Lax) are peak sibling content.

[@dull_demon4717]

fair honestly, i mean they have sibling vibes and share a birthday

[@alicianelson1252]

Maybe they secretly are seriously what are they not telling us

[@VanNessy97]

Sibling energy

[@DoctorLuny]

Fuck imagine being able to play a game and go ''was that me?'' when a character speaks

[@smarvin1112]

12:01 the lil grabby hands when Laura goes “Give him to me now” was so freaking adorable

[@WillRayneMC]

"Ope! I turned into Sean Bean." And, Vax turns around with 3 arrows in his chest...feckin' GOLD! Got a genuine LOL outta this guy.

[@bananabreadthenotsogreat9318]

This is cannonically how the twins were before vox machina and nobody can change my mind

[@themorrigan7224]

This is blowing me away! The details, the Easter eggs, the facial expressions, GILMORE?? I can’t believe you did 18 minutes of this, it’s amazing!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Such kind words, thank you! :) You're awesome!

[@VanNessy97]

The freeze-frame bonus of the Percy x Vax fanfic

@@VanNessy97in the bathtub!

[@K_i_t_t_y84]

We really should have titled this "Disdain and Cheekbones" 🤣

[@StellarCircleStudios]

...Okay, like. you're not wrong... XD

[@julienp.3064]

the entire VO bit had me in tears - you somehow managed to translate each scream and yell and hysterical unintelligible noise into the PERFECT visual,, like how????

[@VanNessy97]

"Sneak, sneak, sneak, sneak" has "Don't Be Suspicious" energy

[@sasstrash316]

Still not over Vax’s “I’m Mrs. Sam Riegal that’s Laura shirt at 5:11

[@cybermadness2503]

I like how this whole animatic feels like an alternate universe(AU) of Exandria, where Vex and Vax never joined up with Vox Machina. And they have American accents. That, and I love every single one of the cameos and references you put in there! *LOVE 'EM!*

[@pinkjaguar12]

this is absolutely AMAZING i cannot BELIEVE you did 18 whole minutes of this, i'm eating it up like ice cream, it's PERFECT.

[@StellarCircleStudios]

You're so sweet, thank you!

[@JennyDolfen]

@@StellarCircleStudios However long did that take you?? It's so good, so funny, and so absolutely delightful in every way!

[@shirakrause8160]

Essek taking the beacon absolutly destroid me! And the string beens pic for vax!

[@mentalrebllion1270]

The most hilarious is how perturbed you make them look when they run across their own voices and I’m living for it. I suppose that’s the curse of being a voice actor for something you like as a pastime (anime, games, etc). 🤣

[@Yiangarugalover]

This is THE greatest animatic I've seen! An 18 minute video is already crazy but it's ALL CONSISTENT?! Thank you for animating and uploading this, it's seriously incredible!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

That's so flattering to read, thank you very much for the kind words! :)

[@Ajehy]

And the fight scene, all the jokes, the freeze-frames? It’s perfect!

[@s.grey.k]

This is a work of genius! And so well executed! The number of visual gags you can pack into a 2 second sound bite and then keep up that same energy for such a long time... amazing. Hats off to you!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

You're too kind, thank you!

[@cassidyjohnson2207]

CALEB’S FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND ESSEK WITH THE BEACON THO

[@TaradaPryoNINJA]

Essek stealing the beacon in the shop!! I love it. All these little references make me so happy ahhh!!

[@sophiekrenn5679]

I just disarmebd a bear-trap! After Vax already walked fully into it, dripping blood, is hilarious. Also the general chaos you managed to convey with these two.

[@oakenshadow6763]

16:39 "Did you talk to yourself?" "I do on a daily basis." 16:49

[@SummerOtaku]

The dashing Percy!!! I’m dying!!

[@TheEpona92]

7:56 Of all the easter eggs in that room, the peppermill was the one that got me to laugh the hardest

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Good job spotting it! I was worried no one would notice, lol.

[@itsnochi9447]

@@StellarCircleStudios U did so good! i love essek stealing the beacon XD

[@piperbird7193]

It took me a minute to remember the significance. Travis used it in his one shot? With the little stuffed unicorn?

[@Grim_Sister]

Baby trinket is just so darn cute!!!

[@audoldends6799]

This is the most Twins/ Laura and Liam thing ever

[@invaderzam]

So... many... frames... Those fight scenes were really well choreographed too!

[@dracothelittlepuff1526]

5:39 - omg ashley johnson the musical and hats by daymond...

[@branharak1331]

The twins HAVE TO SEE THIS! you deserve more subs :[ unjust world

[@StellarCircleStudios]

D'aww, that's so kind of you

[@branharak1331]

@@StellarCircleStudios I come back it this frequently just as cozy ambience :)

[@Glimare]

Hysterical! Love it when they realize who the voice actors are in game.

[@trevanminnig3499]

16:34 I’m sure this is already a thing but… c’mon, you didn’t have to make me think about it 😂

[@Marcieishereandqueer]

That Percy bit was the best part

[@kalaxiqwest]

Just want you to know I watch this every time I need a pick me up

[@Blackestrose]

this is magnificent. also 17:23 mister Lax'ildan , what are you stabbing with?

[@Ianwhale15]

18 minutes of great animation? It even has Easter eggs and fight scenes! How? Who did you sell your soul to in order to achieve this??? It is so good!

[@HereticalKitsune]

T-VEX! Great collection of puns and call-backs!

[@nerdydragonfan]

Vex admiring a very pretty Percy is my favorite bit. 7:19

[@ZeldaWolf2000]

Three things make it even funnier: one, the detail on Percy's face, two, the fact that he's climbing out of a window, and three, the fact that this was nowhere near how went in the game, so the changes outright hilarious on its own. I love this bit too!

[@jeiillson]

Cute lil weird animal = Picks up Scanlan

[@Breadly_TV]

This is a long animatic and so dang good!! Didn't know I needed this animated, but I am so glad you did it!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Thank you very much!

[@JeMiChi90]

Out of all the things, I never expected to see THIS animated, but it's absolutely perfect and I love it so much! Makes me laugh! xD

[@jessk1683]

not vex just carrying around dead brinket lmao thats great

[@bocatadeclavos1274]

18 minutes of this? you are spoiling us!

[@sybariticcupboardrat3763]

I just can't fathom how much time this must have taken to make. It never would have occurred to me to make an animatic for Liam and Laura playing elder scrolls, but I'm glad it occurred to you. This is awesome.

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Thank you very much, I truly appreciate the kind words

[@justinmohr1700]

This was gorgeous! I hope Liam and Laura see this it is incredible I'd love to watch more of the twins fumbling through elder scrolls

[@TiliaCordata]

Oh my gods this is amazing! It's so long, it must have taken so much work!!! The Easter eggs are killing me and Lex and Lax are so cute!!! Sneak sneak sneak sneak! Stunning work!

[@ispeakmovie]

This is probably one of my favorite CR animations now

[@manonvanderhaeghe6664]

Please this is one of the greatest things I ever saw

[@KunKunGun]

18 minute long animatic? You're CRAZY! Great Job! Love all the Easter eggs you included. That fight between Vex and Snake was clean!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

OMG SENPAI NOTICED ME I'm a huge fan of yours! Thank you so so much!

[@eggpassion]

i lost it at the string beans

[@CatchThesePaws]

That choose voice section had me chuckling so hard hahaha

[@aquamarinerose5405]

I love the bit where the default voices are her getting the Last of us 2 Script and then holding the Game Award while crying

[@RyanCoulombe-g1e]

I watched the original video that this audio came from and I really like the reimagining of what the characters would actually be doing while they were talking. Very good work!

[@TheMultiForge]

That essek in the background of the shop....that made me laugh louder then should have at 4am

[@MyrnNecromanson]

Considering who voiced Martin septim, it's funny he turned into Sean bean momentarily

[@bookwormwithwings]

Idk how you managed to make character creation entertaining but you did it! Seriously in awe of your talent, the details are amazing!

[@TK-_-GZ]

algorithmic punch! You went so hard on this, great work, loved the puns and really creative visual humor, and it's incredible how long it is too. Thank you for making this.

[@Lure-Light]

All the Easter eggs are amazing I love them so much

[@MonarchsFactory]

Absolutely incredible

[@sparklegemrose]

This is FANTASTIC. I can't imagine how much time this all took, and there's so much love and passion that went into it. Thank you for sharing this delightful ball of fun with us (and thank you for caring about people's health!) There's so many amazing jokes in this that had me laughing out loud. The Matt Mercer as NPC appearance. The Perc'ahlia "I want you". Vax unlocking the door and making Vex think she suceeded at lockpicking. Panning directly to the bear cub and then Vex picking up a dog instead. Caleb walking by with "that might have been me".

[@CurrisCore]

So very impressive! Such smooth animation work when they're play fighting in the clothes shop.

[@AmyTheArtist9]

This is absolutely DELIGHTFUL! It has so much /character,/ much more fun to watch than the original, imo 🥰

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Oh gosh, thank you! I mean, the original is EASIER to watch at least, lol.

[@ramblinentertainment1922]

This deserves ALL THE VIEWS

THE PERCY DE ROLO 😂

[@asifloserface]

I cannot even articulate with words how impressive this is! It must've taken so many hours but it is so worth it. All the little easter eggs and puns! The truly chaotic sibling energy. The awesome audio editing! The art itself!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I smiled for almost a whole twenty minutes watching this. And even on my second watch through I was still finding new details and little things. The details are incredible!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your observation and kind feedback

[@15BubblesOrigami]

Those fight sequences were so smooth and dynamic! Also the audio really sounds like this is all one continuous sequence of events.

an 18 minute animatic? :O wow! well done :D

Fuck that this is canon of Vex & Vax’s early years lol

[@lnfreeman]

I couldnt quite get through the original video, but this is so dynamic and chock full of gags! Splendid work.

[@KrixSolith]

My favorite thing to do is find animatic creators with your level of talent. And subscribe! It may take a month, it may take a year but eventually something awesome like this will come across my feed. There's value to the short animatics most folks make for sure, but these long-form ones have so much personality and passion behind them. You're a pro!

[@StellarCircleStudios]

Oh gosh, that's so genuine and kind of you to say! I really truly appreciate the support and love

[@jakelevinson7802]

Wait this is 17 minutes? You’re amazing
