<blockquote>'''Who are Videlectrix?'''<br />

The '''Videlectrix Guys''' are the geniuses behind the games produced by [[Videlectrix]]. Apparently the sole employees of the company, both men serve roles of [[Progrum|progrumming]] and providing art for computer games.

== <span class="mw-headline"> Characterization </span> ==

'''Videlectrix One''' is the domineering and abusive (verbally and physically) lead programmer. He is vociferously obsessed with developing "[[Good Graphics|good graphics]]"; even though his opinion of what good graphics ''are'' is wildly outdated (in line with [[Strong Bad]]'s [[Strong Bad's Technology|opinion]]), his coworker's output fails to measure up to his standards.

'''Videlectrix Two''', the subordinate programmer, timidly accepts this harsh treatment. He appears to be on a more even keel than One, often attempting to point out his errors of judgement to little avail. In [[Joystick Wagglin' with Videlectrix: Halloween Edition]], Videlectrix Two was demoted to "Videlectrix Three" as a result of his poor graphics work.

<span id="portrayal"></span>
=== <span class="mw-headline">Portrayal </span> ===

Videlectrix One is portrayed by [[Matt Chapman]], and Videlectrix Two is portrayed by [[Mike Chapman]]. They have both combed their hair poorly, wear rumpled polo shirts, and sport [[Mustaches|mustaches]] (false costume mustaches or sometimes drawn on in [[Photoshop]]).

The "One" and "Two" names were first referred to in [[Joystick Wagglin' with Videlectrix: Halloween Edition]]. Previously, in [[Eric Conveys An Emotion: The Interview|Eric Conveys an Emotion: The Interview]], Videlectrix One was given the name "Monsieur Henri Chapardieu"; and in [[8-Bit is Enough]], the credits list their names as "Videlectrix Matt" and "Videlectrix Mike". A [[RPS Interview - 17 Dec 2008|Rock Paper Shotgun]] interview refers to "Videlectrix assistants, Mike [and] Matt" as additional employees distinct from One and Two.
