Well, I'm Chad James. I'm Ellie Main and I am Jackie Zauer We tend to bring in some community questions that you guys have submitted using hashtag ruby-roo as we said earlier and Looking forward to answering them today It's gonna be a wild one. Well again, man. Where to begin? Yeah. Well, I know where I'm gonna begin. Go on. Nio's back Yeah, I called it. That's true Umbrella in the intro they threw me off to you because like I saw the umbrella in the intro and there was like But there's the torture cat and I was like surely she's gonna be there But then like, you know, we had that episode where Cinder would walk through that town And then I was like, oh lots of people have umbrellas. It wasn't really like a nod So right as I was starting to think like mmm, maybe Nio's not back Then you saw that umbrella. Yes. Chad got very excited And what a fight scene Introduce her back with like so fun really cool. It felt like animation was just like, yeah You know, we haven't really got to animate Nio in a while. Let's have some fun with it and like Really really cool use of the parasol and also I loved it like it seemed like I'm gonna go ask some people animation It seemed like there was some like Jackie Chan Yeah, definitely. Oh looking at the dishes. That was really really cool. The use of like the environment. Yeah Yeah, but then Nio's face when the maiden powers came out she was like Oh, oh, oh, oh, it's different now JK JK. Cinder really showed some restraint too. Maybe she's just at this point. She's just so done You know, she's like listen stop like we're gonna stop fighting. We both don't like Ruby I'm just telling you stop putting your stuff on me. Nio could be a powerful ally to her Yeah, so it's like whoa, whoa, whoa, let's just let's think let's think about this for a second. Yeah, we're evil You're evil like we get it. Let's go after that. Let's go after that girl together Yeah, I was wondering that too when they like because they started fighting hand-to-hand and I thought like oh She's gonna give her the spooky arm After wrap it back up again. That's true. Like oh boring. Yeah, and so that I was like what about our swords Then they came out. I'm so like but all this is happening and like shouldn't she just like I'm a maiden You know like and then you know, we got that moment and it was pretty dramatic I love it. Just like hovering in the in the wind, you know, just like mm-hmm. Yeah, that's right. I Think she was just tired of Yeah, cuz I mean like in any confrontation you kind of wonder why it's even happening and when she got to the point of okay We're not actually here to kill each other. Let's just get this over with right now We're gonna bring out the maiden powers is kind of like that Indiana Jones moment of like well I have a gun Like what are you really gonna do? Yeah, exactly Maybe she forgot and then she was like oh hang on a second. I'm a maiden Yeah, I mean she used your powers after she fell I assume she used your powers to kill that poor woman to steal her clothes We didn't see a body. We don't know. We can see a body that's villager saves the day But yeah, that's that's the twist at the very end. It was that villager was one of the maidens all along See Patrick tried to throw me off in that in our previous episode and be like she flew off a spaceship, man Like how could you come back? nice try Patrick Hey, that's right. You said that when we were watching you like come on She I was like she has an umbrella. Maybe she's fine. And then he was like come on. She fell off a spaceship. Yeah, that's true Yeah, so then we also have oh real quick Head to roosty.com forward slash play cuz one of the things we do here So we like to interact with you guys if you guys are first members watching live We have a live poll that you can participate with We'll be asking you a question here in just a little bit so open up a new tab head to roosty.com forward slash play and be ready For when we ask you questions I forgot to do that. I'm all over the place today guys. I'm sorry But uh, so okay, obviously that's like my highlight. We had that we had a Yang and Blake a little moment Yeah, I'm upset. I mean it was it wasn't it was gonna come back around and then Blake kind of messed it up Blake okay, I don't think yeah, yeah, yeah, she has too much pride She has like such a huge ego like I don't need anyone to protect me I hope me in my arms. You have such good friends calm down Just that's the tension in that relationship though right now definitely and I thought we were getting past that I was like, okay Maybe it's not gonna be a thing and like Blake seem to be saying all the right things that she was like I'm gonna hold the arm that got cut off again. My bad And then you know, it's like either be the one benefit about the robot Robot hand is it wasn't shaken, you know just saying robot parts are superior to human parts That's how she should have started all right like yeah, that's actually a pretty cool arm that you have known and actually if you think about it You're welcome But no, it was the And I'll protect you that was really And she's also dealing with trauma from Adam as well. She's seeing like hallucinations of PTSD Yeah, I also find it a bunch of creepy dead people in bed. That was creepy. Well, they found their blankets They were looking for blankets and they did and then weiss had a blanket I had that question. Is she wearing the corpse blanket or did they find a different one? Maybe she's using the other side? You know She's chilly and these girls don't wear a huge amount of clothing. That's true. They have a little bit more though That's true. The wife is rocking some leggings now. Yeah, it's cold. That's true They have a midriff sound and I was like girls you don't freeze. I don't know why I have this thing in my mind I'm just like just just by looking at Weiss's whole character design. I just like I feel like she should never be cold I don't know. I just because she's like she's like an ice princess, you know, she's like immune to it Yeah, maybe yeah like an Elsa vibe going on I don't know that just every time it's like and she's the one all episode is like I'm so cold and I'm like I feel like no wonder We had the first and like addressing of oh, yeah Of crows alcoholism didn't we yeah Ruby was the one to be like hey I'm actually gonna block off the cellar cuz a lot of booze in here and I was so slow and picking that up It was like real they walked in and there's just like it's just like a cellar She's like maybe like after Weiss did like the coolest thing with it like her dust Oh, yeah, all the candles like that was super awesome And it's just like I'm just like oh, it's a seller and I'm like looking for like spooky things I didn't even put it together when she's like, yeah, maybe we shouldn't bring in crow It's an addiction the spookiest thing of all Chad. It is So we had that moment and then oh and then that little trapdoor gave us gave us a wiggle Forget everything I was gonna say about it the trapdoor gave us a wiggle gave us a little wiggle But we didn't get to see what was inside. I think it's a ghost. You think it's a ghost I don't know. I don't know do they do ghosts in do have we seen any of like souls No, but We've seen God and if a man can reincarnate as a boy and stuff over and over and over again Why not a ghost? What if all the like of the spirits of that village are all hiding down there in Seller you got like a Pokemon power situation. Yeah, and maybe I just been playing too much. Let's go Yeah You can get you know you want to go down there and see the ghost but first you got to fight like a hundred trainers and anyway That's the next like 15 episode arc of Ruby In the end it was all actually Pokemon No, I'm trying to What do you think's in there Jackie? I don't know I don't maybe Some kind of grin Yeah, I saw like a lot of comments about that too and I'm inclined to kind of agree with them Maybe whatever has killed the entire village because they all died in their sleep They were they weren't like fending off something they weren't they died in their sleep So I don't know it's creepy Something in the water Yeah I'm gonna say not believe you but then we're talking about the Pokemon situation And I all it is in my head is knuckle Eevee and then it's just like a really creepy Eevee that looks like a grim Eevee like grim Pokemon Yes Fan art's gonna start coming out I can't wait to see it I also can't wait to see what questions the community has for us So Jackie why don't you read the first one for us Yeah, my absolute pleasure let's go Alright Do you think the cause of all the death was some kind of new grim Maybe one that invades through dreams like Freddy Krueger Oh that's really scary Yeah, that's like totally You know Like a reality a reality plane crossing grim Yeah, it's okay because they all that was something I noticed they all kept being like I'm just really tired Oh and like cuz gang said it and then a wife was like I'm just sorry I'm really sleepy You know whatever and I'm like ah like something something's making them sleepy I don't know what it is A peppering of day five Yeah a little bit right Don't worry So what do you think maybe it's something that had like an effect on everyone Like a Yeah, like a sleepy grim Like a go to bed, some kind of go to bed juice Just like go sleep I like the trap door wiggle That was great I don't like sleeping in juice so much I'm gonna read the nice question Now that Neo is back and has confronted Cinder Do you think she will join her or double cross her and become a good guy Ooh I don't think she has any reason to become a good guy Not yet at least I think she'll join her Yeah I think she looked pretty astounded with the maiden powers Like I'm sorry that your boss go eatin Yeah Kind of my bad in a way But you got a sweet head out of it so Yeah So maybe we should just like join forces Yeah I think she'll probably stay with Cinder until it no longer benefits her Yeah Cuz she's in the business of Neo Like she doesn't care about anything else She attaches herself to power And she's just seen some extraordinary power Yeah I mean she was scared I mean she was scared She was legit scared when she saw all the spooky maiden powers She was like hold up magic's not real She doesn't know the story That's true I'm really curious what she's been up to really But clearly she got better Training Just great training Back with Yang says What kind of book do you think Maria grabbed off the shelf Since we got a close up of the cover Well clearly it was book one It was book one of fairy tales maybe Maybe Yeah she did say it and I'll tell you a story I'll tell you a story She's got I'm telling you she's got this whole like grandmother vibe going on Like I'm thinking wolf and sheep's clothing But you would think yeah by this point I don't know how much time they've really spent Quite a lot of time it seems Like they've been on a small journey together But some would be like okay so like who are you Right Old lady who keeps like yelling at me to close the door Like who are you lady And also how did you survive the train crash No I like She seems old and frail And yet she just comes like sauntering out Yeah it's cold in here Cause they use gravity dust for like everyone else surviving But they didn't know she was in there Like she must have been just bouncing around in that thing I'm still saying them silver eyes behind them glasses Oh yeah totally So that's what we think is in the book That's what we think I think it's a book of fairy tales It's gotta be Everything else is fairy tale related So it only makes sense that it follows the theme Maybe like fables And in the beginning the silver eyes do this Oh there it was That would be nice wouldn't it Yeah Jack you want to read the next one Yeah Why do you think Salem has such loyal followers It doesn't seem like they would be willing to work for her If they knew she wanted to destroy the world by Ross Cool 8th Fair is a very motivating power Yeah and also some people just like they see power And they're like yep Yep It's inevitable I guess maybe they're hoping Right they're hoping at the end of the world that She'll be like you guys can stay Well done and you can stay alive Everyone else no no Maybe that's what they're hoping Loyal only because Cinder was there And so now her boss is gone So she's like oh I'm screwed I guess I have to stay Because if she leaves she'll just like get hunted down Yeah you can't just really like Or I'm just going to check out of being evil now Because it's really not worked out for me So I'm going to be a good person And I think Salem's going to be like tight Yeah you're seeing all the people And what they're capable of And also like Tyrion and stuff You're kind of trapped there I don't want Hans to come out of the ground And pick me up No thank you Yeah I think Tyrion's like really the only one That's truly loyal to her Because she's just crazy Yeah So yeah I Everyone else is out of fear We've got a good question here About what we were just talking about Do you think Yang will try taking Adam on by herself To prove to Blake that she does not need protection Yeah probably Don't protect me It's a little bit hubristic though isn't it Just accept help Yeah I thought we learned this lesson It's all about being a team together Yeah well they are children That's true She needs a helping hand Yeah Aww man Sorry I had to I am looking forward to seeing Pumblebee pulling that cart Oh yeah It's just going to look so funny to me As they found the little cart thing You're like oh we'll just look at the bumblebee And then we'll be fine It was so flippant There mission success Mission accomplished Done But like I just picture this

Chris Kokida Yay That's so beautiful Thank you for the introduction The King of Sound himself That's me Yes the King of Sound Alright well thank you Hey Chris Getting bigger and bigger Well thanks for being on the show man Why don't you tell everybody a little bit About what you do for Ruby Yeah sure I am the audio lead Chris Cocchino So I mean I oversee all the All the animated shows we work on Typically doing a lot of like reviews And coming up with sound pallets And discussing with the team kind of You know what it is We want the episodes to sound like Cool Which we've talked a lot about this too Like you would be surprised Like how much sound influences You know what you're seeing From like the difference in choices Can like absolutely like Effect everything that's going on And like the tone of what you're seeing Yeah absolutely I mean I think You know you can take something That's really serious and add A silly sound effect and it Utterly changes the entire thing right It's like it goes back to the old Thought of when you're watching A horror movie instead of Covering your eyes at a scary moment Covering your ears greatly Pulls away from the I've never tried that Oh yeah I used to try that Works every time Interesting Okay I'm going to go watch something Real spooky and I'm just going to do that I'm going to be like that's weird But I'll be like no Chris said That's the way to do it Cool well we got a bunch of questions For you Oh boy And so let's go ahead and bring up Some of those and see what they want to know About sound Jackie Yeah what kinds of scenes do you Prefer to mix? Expose of fight scenes like Neo vs Cinder or more subtle ones Like in the shed and cellar From this episode Five frogs up So I think both of them Have a lot of different Like there are reasons to love Mixing both of those Like I love mixing fights Because you can take any moment And make it big and explosive You can take all the sound And pull it out and the next thing You know what this punch feels like It's got a magnitude of like You know an earthquake Whereas I think You know mixing the more subtle Creaking house and the wind And all that other Just the elements that make Something feel nice and eerie Like I got into games and sound And film Because of horror The genre itself And I think that It's kind of like a love there So these spooky moments Yeah so Phillip Spann Is a mix engineer Is working on a mix For all of this season He's been a really great job He made every moment count Every creek in that house Just where it needed to be He pulled it where it needed to be He brought the volume where it needed to be And it just made everything Feel nice and cohesive That's so cool Especially since the episode itself Was lacking a little bit In the music department It was kind of a decision between How much music and how much sound We wanted to have Okay, how great It was definitely very spooky Alright, Mike Pertle Who is our audio engineer over here Says give us the dirt Who screws up the most Doing their line Oh man I don't want to throw Anybody into the bus Is it Miles? Let's just say it's Miles If we cover our mouth like this No one can even hear us right now It's not recorded on the internet forever No No, I think everybody has their own flubs No one in particular No one in particular has like A higher flub count to me You just have to turn Miles down, right? Oh yeah Miles is mad loud He is We didn't think about buying another microphone Just for Miles The Miles microphone? Yep That's awesome Sweet, you should do that Because I'm also a very loud person So there's at least two people who use it Sly Sniper asks What was your inspiration For all the audio For the new Grim The manticore and the Sphinx So I typically work on all the vocalizations But Philip did a lot of them For this Grim But the origination for that Started off looking at Kind of Greek mythology, right? And talking about what manticores Would have sounded like So looking at references like God of War And I think Percy Jackson I think there was one in that movie And kind of feeling out What a manticore should sound like You know, it's funny If you really take a mythological creature A creature that doesn't exist Like a dinosaur I was going to say you got the Jurassic Parkit With the Maptics basically Yeah, you're looking at like What can I like in this too That's in the real world So you look at lions You look at snakes Right for the snakes Had a snake tail Had all these different elements to it Funny enough, you made a comment Before this Because we were talking about these questions About how I typically like to hide things Yes, you do So because I didn't work on this I didn't get a chance to hide something But Philip did Yeah We have an editor, Connor Pickens Who did some temp screams And let's just say They're peppered throughout the season Really? One of which is in A grim vocalization That's cool That's awesome So we work with the animation Sound design department for Death Battle And so we've gotten to see A lot more into that process And Philip does a lot of our stuff And it's really funny when like You hear the sound to, you know, together And you're like, whoa, that sounds so cool And he's like, yeah, fun fact Like there's a baby crying in here And I'm like, this is a duck quack You know, and when you take out all the elements You hear, you're like, oh, yeah, there it is Jake hit a backwards dinosaur roll In an episode of MDB somewhere Oh, really? That's awesome Jackie, would you like to Yes, of course What's the weirdest thing you've ever used To make a sound for the show And what was your favorite episode to work on so far By Pete the Nerd Well, it's funny, you kind of talked about We just talked about the weirdest thing We've ever used to make a sound Clearly someone's screaming And it's really funny I think if you pay attention You'll hear it somewhere else in episode one There's a scream somewhere in there If you just pay attention What are some weird things? Like screaming, I feel seems pretty typical Pretty natural Oh, but this scream is not Oh, okay But anyways, anyways, anyways But yeah, I mean, I used to hide like I used to put farts in sounds Because it would actually make It would make the This is gross The texture of the actual sound Feel different The textural farts Yeah, this is the best Never taken a fart through your ears Gross Listen, any art content you might have Yes But yeah, and then of course I don't know, using different like Organic elements Dragging bookcases and such For the high Or like the low guttural elements Of like a grim Certain things like that You know, it's Trying not to be Like what you see is what you get With your sound It's trying to think of Out of the box And so far Of all the episodes I think this might have been My favorite to work on Yeah, I think the fight For this episode was amazing Probably one of my favorite fights Of the entire time I've been here At the company Oh, it was awesome And then everything else About the episode itself Just felt It just flowed so well It felt like it was Like a horror movie almost Yeah It's a spooky little arc I was joking with Ellie and Jackie earlier That I was like I love that the big thing From this episode is that Neo came back That was And we have So we have this epic fight And then I was like It's just funny to me That the character that doesn't Speak and we're like Man, we have the sound guy On Yeah, it was so exciting To see Neo come back to Because I love Neo as a character And seeing us And we haven't seen her In, I guess, three seasons Now Since three Long time It was neat to see her Come back and fight Fight sender I feel like audio engineering Is even more important On a character that doesn't speak Because, you know, you can Yeah, you got to make all of her Moves a little bit bigger A little bit more punchy Yeah Mitch W. wants to As an episode With much less score than usual How much more important Does your job get? It's a good question I think In a lot of ways This might be a can answer But I think You know, I think the Importance of our sound Our job rather Is pretty persistent Across the board If you strip all the music From any of the episodes We've worked on so far You'll hear how much detail Goes into it When Elina gets in the booth And starts doing foliar Certain sound effects It's there It's always there And when Philip gets in And he ingests it into the mix It's there It's just We have to have that balance With the sound and the music Itself Right, so It's about the same level Of importance But I think in a lot of ways You do have to make Some more conscious decisions To be like, hey We have to make this moment Feel scarier without music Yeah, maybe not hide so many farts In this one Can't hide them Yeah Cool, well, you know Chris has something that he Brought with him to show you guys Probably so he can get out of us Making him do something Like a lightning round What? But we're going to Do a megaphone question That relates to it So make sure you have that tab Open with roosterteeth.com Forward slash play And yeah, so we're going to Ask you guys which remix clip Is the best So the pressure's on And you brought a bunch of clips So tell us a little bit about What we're doing here So I think this first clip Is pretty funny In that everybody's been Really pointing a finger at Oz And so I thought Why not lean into that A little bit more So we changed the music around A little bit I'm curious to hear your thoughts Specifically to make him seem Hmm, we'll see Yeah Hmm Let's see it Ruby Please Don't Hey Do whatever you think is right, kiddo Jen What is Ozpin hiding from us? No! Bum bum bum Bum bum bum I'm just ready for the Mad Max thing It feels like it follows Or something like that It's funny that clip Actually that music track I didn't have to do much To just fit perfectly with that So It's a little weird Interesting The second clip I put together Clearly someone didn't get the memo Things didn't go well As planned for Adam Recently Well Okay Okay Shot No Congratulations Nice Well done Well done Congratulations to you Shot Congratulations Shot Congratulations Well done Well done Well done Congratulations That was pretty good It makes me think of like You know like Way way back in the day You'd have like a live accompanist to film Yeah Like someone's just like going for it And like oh no no no Run music Run run We gotta go I was imagining like a serial killer Just kind of like going down the hallway It kind of fits Yeah a serial killer vibe Is it American Psycho? Psycho? Yeah Yeah I originally put It was like more of a happy birthday-ish song It felt very much like that Real, real spooky But this one got a good chuckle on me That's good So then we thought you know What happens if we were to deflate Deflate one of these fight scenes Just a little bit Okay Just a little teensy That was fun I love it I love that one so much I just feel like it should have been Full of like cartoon sound Sound effects Yeah we probably could have gone and Just did a full pass on that Yeah So this last one here Might arguably be One of the best ships in Ruby At least from last season So I thought to make it Make this particular scene feel Okay A little bit more than that Okay I still don't feel like I deserve A family and your family Grantedly Well You're going to have to get over it Ilya Saving hate will have a huge impact On how Faunus Are seen in this role That's a central saxophone Now it's up to you all To take the progress And keep running ahead Right The white fang may have been a failure But with your father starting up a new Movement I've got more faith than ever before And keep light Cut it off that This is so good This next one going high right there Oh wow See like I'm saying earlier Sound can really do a lot to influence The mood of what you're watching Yeah for sure It's funny how Especially that fight How different that felt It felt like a Saturday morning cartoon Yeah really good Versus something that was a big serious Scary fight for the gang Right Just buddies Just buddies having a fight Just buddies having a good old fight Well let's see what our buddies thought about Which clip was the best On the megaphone pole Let's see Train fight Train fight Yeah win in there That was so fun It was a little suck as theme I really want to see it With like cartoon set effects You know like A lot of fun Well thanks so much for sharing that with us Yeah of course man You know I think it's It's a lot of fun to do what we do And I'd like to give a short Shout out to my department I think You know we're a small team Small but mighty And You know Phillip Phillip Spann and Alina LaCouric They carry so much of The weight of a lot of our show You know I wouldn't be able to pull off All of what we do without them Without them so it's It's pretty awesome Yeah they're wonderful Thanks Phillip and Alina Phillip does a lot of death battle stuff It's great And Alina always has to Fill in She helps fill in for when we're like Oh god I need to Pick this up real quick And jump into the end of your session And just voice this thing real quick It's great Well thank you guys so much For tuning into the show Make sure you guys submit Your questions for next week Using the hashtag RubiRW Send us your comments Things, fan art Maybe that Pokemon Grim We were talking about Who's to say Who knows concert I'm here for That's right Let's go It will make Jackie's day If somebody starts putting that together I want to see the The Knuckle Eevee Knuckle Eevee I laughed Thanks I had to stifle my laugh I was really excited You're supposed to Why don't keep it in man I was off camera I didn't want to I don't want to be that guy That's fine And don't forget to check out These super cool hoodies in the store And everything else That's going to be launching In Tampa Christmas Yeah look at that Little chair dancing I don't know what I'm doing Oh yep Take that marketing This is all you had to do Okay cool Before we go Oh yes We should probably show you guys A sneak peak And next week's episode The exclusive clip Storm's cleared up for now We should be able to leave by morning That's good Good feeling about this place Especially with me around Are you okay?
