I love how they have multiple perfectionists in different stages of production. They can point out the smallest details from the breaking wine glass and belt buckles on characters. Its those little things that most people might ignore, but they are very valuable in selling the realism of the show. Just because you might overlook these tiny sounds and visuals in real life it doesnt mean your brain isnt picking up on them and processing the information. In the same way, every time they fix or improve on the smallest details, our brains will pick up on it and sell the story that much more to the viewers

And will probably drag the third out towards noxus. From there demacia, freljord and ionia will start to get involved. On top of this, there is viktor and the void knocking on our door already, leading into just general referencing to Icathia and Shurima. Targon will then end up riding off the back end of shurima. Literally bildgewater, shadow isles, and the jungle place, are the only places that currently have no set up in the current narrative.

After watching the first season, the only thing I was worried that the second season might not be as good as the first one. It's hard to imagine anything being better than this. This series is just a definition of perfection in every level.

The reason why Arcane is legendary is because EVERY department was extremely throughout and detailed with their craft. They got a lot of skilled people to do what they did best and made a killer show. Passion equals quality, such is Arcane.

Seeing Brandon tear up really got to me, somehow. I can't imagine how emotional it must have been to have something you helped create so many years ago evolve into a god-tier art masterpiece that tugged at the heart strings of so many people around the world. Congratulations to every single person that made Arcane possible - from the directors to the writers; the musicians and sound designers; the animators and voice actors; to the cleaning ladies that swept the floors soiled with their blood, sweat and tears - the whole lot... you are all legends in my book. And Christian... the fans will forever be in your debt for the legacy you are leaving behind. Give yourself a pat on the back and please allow yourself some time for rest and relaxation, mate, you've earned it. This community needs you sane... the world needs more people with your levels of passion and dedication in it. With love, A grateful fan.

Holy molly, it's the sound effects crew! I loved every aspect of Arcane, but I didn't even realize for the longest time just how much heavy lifting those guys did! I swear they were the final touch that made everything real, and I know they're not going to get the absolute respect they deserve. You guys were freaking amazing!

The story of how Arcane was made, the years of work, effort, and love has gone into it reminds me a lot of how the LOTR movies were made and I think will have a similar importance on the animation genre as the movies did on the fantasy genre.

Watching this is so sureal. I was excited for season two before the first one was even fully out, but watching all these episodes of behind the scenes is making me so grateful to be a part of something so big and carefully created with countless people giving it their all, even as just one single viewer.

It really shows what kind of beautiful things can be made when you get a bunch of people together that genuinely care not just about the quality of the work but also the content. I feel like a lot of times its either one or the other.

I knew nothing of the game and this show inspired me on a level I didn’t know possible. Everything about this show is excellence. The animation, the story, the music, the sounds. It’s a masterpiece. Art worth living for.

I never thought I would cry watching a making of video. Thank you.

I have never played league of legends game, but I loved Arcane so much that I even watched this documentary. The animation and concept art is so incredibly beautiful I was so hyped to see how they worked on it. The fact that they didn‘t use motion capture just blew my mind!

As someone who has never been interested in League of Legends, I can say: Arcane is incredible. This is the best animated series that has shown the potential of drama and animation. I hope Arcane will have some impact on the animation, film and series industry.

When I think of sound in animation, I usually think only of the voice acting and maybe sfx sounds. I’ve never really thought of how much goes into making the sounds in the environment so this video was very educational for me

"What if you dont know these characters, what if you dont know anything about League of Legends would you still engage in this?" I did. Tbh the only things I heard about LoL game beforehand was bad...and I still felt compelled to watch Arcane. SO happy that I did! I cannot come up with a single complaint for Arcane

I went into Arcane with pretty low expectations. It honestly blew me away. Character writing, animation, world building, it was all borderline perfect. I recommend this show to everyone and consider it one of the greatest seasons of any show ever released...and I'm not even a League of Legends player.

You gave it your best shot and what a magnificent shot it was

I see so many people in these comments saying this behind-the-scenes documentary made them cry. I didn't once feel like crying; quite the opposite. I think I got more and more excited with each video, just slowly watching the domino chain of events unfold that I knew would eventually lead to the creation of what's possibly my favorite show of all time (if it's not my all time favorite show, then it's definitely in competition for the title), and I just couldn't help but smile while listening to them talk about how they were scared to look at people's reactions, while knowing myself just how amazing the reputation of the show is. It was just an overwhelming feeling of "Man, I *really* wish they showed what their reaction was when they finally looked at what people thought of Arcane, cause they deserve that moment of realizing people love this masterpiece of a passion project that they made."

i feel extremely lucky to live in a world where arcane exists. forever grateful to have experienced this. cant wait for what comes next.

Makes me so happy knowing how positively received the show is. The whole time watching this documentary I was like "Oh I hope the show does well! They deserve it! Wait a minute..."

man, i gotta be honest, as a sound engineer myself, this its like watching avengers for sound lovers hahaha this its so amazing dude.. thanks so much RIOT.

besides all the respect i have for everyone involved in Arcane's production, im so glad they put some of the TBskyen animation analysis and Necrit here... they deserve it

When Brandon startet crying I couldn't hold it anymore

I didn't watch Arcane until December, because I wasn't a fan of league at the time. But, I began seeing spoilers (and soundtracks) and decided to watch it, and never regretted it. I discovered that I like Jinx a lot and just fell in love with Arcane, really. Thank you Christian, you legend. I can't express it enough, just thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, a million thank yous.

Christian gave us a perfect representation of "never give up," he kept pushing and trying to make something that he truly felt like would be a great thing, I respect him for that. I've been watching this show on repeat since it came out, and because of that i would talk a lot about it. My sister got mad at me because of how much I love this show, but i don't think she understands how much this show focuses on mental illnesses, or how much time and how much effort they put in this. The animation is beautiful, its the best animation ive ever seen This show has effected me and many others very positively. The music was outstanding and blends perfectly into the show. This show will forever be my favorite. I will never stop recommending this show to people and i will never forget this show.

I really felt it when i saw them cry while watching their hardwork🥺

27:26 Seeing the premier attendees watch the first three episodes got me emotional. After seeing the journey this show went through and knowing first-hand how those first episodes felt brought on some tears in me.

Not only does Arcane make me cry, the making of even made me cry now. Massive props and love for every single person in this amazing team!

This is one of the best behind-the-scenes series I've ever seen. The fact that around 7:16, a sound engineer can reference a line of dialogue, and then we cut to footage of that exact line being recorded likely *years* beforehand... it's incredible. I cannot imagine how much footage these editors dug through to pull off moments like that, but it paid off beautifully.

Based on everything I've seen of Christian in these videos, he seems like a really caring, incredibly dedicated and worrying-about-everything person. At every step there were doubts and issues. To go from that to 31:14 where someone explains how they staked their livelyhood on your ability to make this show work must have been such an incredible moment of release of tension and appreciation. Man, I have so much faith in season 2 now that I've watched these Bridging the Rift videos. It wasn't lightning in a bottle. It's just pure skill and dedication.

For some reason getting a glimpse of the live reaction of the creators, writers, VAs, etc during the premiere felt good.

The game isn't bad, it's a well made game, otherwise, why would it be successful? Most people who say the game is bad are people who have spent years on it and have grown accustomed to the nice aspects of it and are now sensitive to the little bits that makes the game not fun for them(even though it still is fun, they just don't care as much). The game is competitive, and losing in a competitive game that you care about hurts, but you want to win because winning feels so great. People can be obsessed with this. Generally, veteran league players say the game is bad because they either don't want you play the game & risk getting addicted to its dopamine feedback loop of losing & winning, or they just want to vent their bottled frustrations of losses in their games. Edit: I'd like to add that one of the frustrations that come from this game is from the players themselves. Most players are ok, and some are loud-mouth, obnoxious, toxic players. It's online so anonymity makes these toxic behavior worse. Other than that, game is fantastic for me, loved it to my core. Just be careful when you try it and you start having too much fun. It can be addicting.

It's rare that people can say "We gave it out best shot" about a project, truly mean it, and actually be right. It also shows how humble most of these people seem to be. It's not "We made the best thing in animation", even though they arguably did

That is one (actually 5) of the most inspiring things I have ever watched. For so long I wished to know the story behind arcane and all the process. Even the documentary is a beautiful piece of art. It is amazing when a group of people can unite the best of each field to do something of value and art. Thank you so much!
