This felt very old school film riot, and as much as I love everything you guys are doing these days… this was nice. Like finding an episode of your favorite show you’ve never seen. Just a really fun episode.

[@HoodJigsaw]

I remember the OG throwing knives video; utilizing the motion blur is still a go to tactic (also awesome to see practical effects having a home amongst the VFX that exist now 😌)

[@CinematicCaptures]

Would be interesting to try attaching the board to a drill so you can get a constant rotation movement

[@adamsellshomes6819]

I did exactly this...worked out perfectly

[@cineblazer]

this feels like old film riot in the BEST possible way. I'm super happy for all the new opportunities and resources you guys have, and love seeing your advanced projects, but sometimes it's really nice to see you guys getting back to your roots with a spectacular, funny, low-budget-friendly video like this one.

[@GethinColes]

Attaching knife to a drill would give you consistent speed turn and also allow you to focus on getting the path steady. And yeah highest frame rate passible is the way to go because th extra inertia you need for the speed also keeps the path smooth and less wobbly

[@calbranigan720]

I miss your guys’ content. I forget to just sit down and enjoy a video every now and again so for 6 years I guys were 90% of my KZbin “recently watched”. U guys are awesome

[@ReaganScottPhoto]

Love the callbacks to older episodes. the yells, the 1940s commercials. Old school days.

[@mr.j_thestoryteller]

Aaaahahhhhhhh.... i love the addition of the black and white archive film clips... used to love those...

[@zongmuas]

I thought to myself, “why not just use a photo?” And right as i did that Ryan explained why a video worked better. Sensational.

[@adamwoodall8075]

This was nice to sit down and watch this, with a small pack of oreos near the end of my lunch break.👌 Keep it up y’all!

[@shaquilleotmeal5179]

This was nice to law down and read this, with a small bag of spicy hot Cheetos and a bottle of Jack Daniels at school during nap time. 🤌 keep it up y’all!

[@Traversky433]

I just got one of those monitors and I had the exact same experience when it arrived, I still can't get over how big it is but I love it

[@itsmecaldo]

Film Riot is making a comeback and I'm here for it

[@blenderdad]

49'' monitors are AWESOME. i have one from samsung for gaming, work and blender, i love it

[@BrandonYap]

This was such a great vid, I love the variety of content on this channel but good ol VFX tutorials are always my fav.

[@eldronado]

Heey, I bought that exact monitor a couple of months ago and I luuuv it! I no longer have shoulder pains from constantly looking a little bit to the side onto one monitor. I just have my main work window smack in the middle and all other important work stuff (youtube, netflix, 9gag, reddit) on sides. Oh, and playing Cities Skylines on that thing is a.m.a.z.i.n.g!

[@wabi777]

Just so appreciative for you all , and your work. Yall consistently put out rich quality work, I know how hard that can be. I've definitely learned 90% of filmmaking from watching yall. Thank you!

[@hankthepatriot3733]

I want a Ronin 4D so badly! The quality is EPIC!

[@daniel_wilkinson]

I love how much effort you spent on making the stick keyable just to end up completely masking it out.

[@mc.towelie]

glad to see the good old film riot again

[@WhySteve]

Damn the throwing shot looks amazing! The spinning wide is a bit questionable haha.

[@beyondthereel]

very cool effect. The Curved dell monitors look awesome to get.

[@maartentoors]

I have been following you guys since before your 5:53 camera operator was born... I absolutely love you guys!

[@aybee5908]

These diy props work pretty well, indeed. And knife rotation works well, too without a drill. Please keep it going.

[@smepable]

Love you guys. What a Landscape of a Screen!

[@calvinwitthoft104]

this was such a refreshement

[@EdNorty]

Old school practical Film Riot is nice.

[@GalZiv]

The Dell is great I have one after I saw it in your studio. Thannks.

[@UPEXPERT]

wow Amazing and Very Very Nice Video Superb 👍👍👌👌💯💯🙏🙏🙏

[@jamesdaniels8297]

Young people these days are cowards. Back in the good ole days we would actually throw knives at each other.

[@CosmicAmusement]

A belated happy birthday to Ryan... ⚡⚡

[@DorKProductions]

This was great.. one thing tho… In the intro you can tell you were not following the knife cause your eyes stop motion rather than a smooth follow on the knife.

[@Robroy333]

Maybe some shadow on Josh’s face ; grounding it in the world?

[@themsqshop]

I’ve missed you an Josh’s banter. It’s been a few weeks lol

[@adanvargas2339]

Spray white primer on the stick and board first, then paint green.

[@ZekeFaust]

Love the monitors!

[@videovybz8074]

Listen, film Riot is simply the best...full stop

[@Harrisonjnr]

Big work you put into this but Seriously need to add some Shadow and blend to the knife, it looks too flat

[@lastfire77]

Nice lil trick, you should mvoe something behind the camera in the scene where hes following the knife with his eyes. eyes move smoothly when following something, but stutter when they move from thing to thing.

[@danielyeh1627]

*u guys r amazing*

[@MichaelSmith-mb1gm]

I love the fun these guys have!

[@JamesPero]

Once you go super ultra wide you'll never want to go back! :D

[@LostInYoutube]

Ι see new film Riot's youtube clip. I hit like.

[@carabing]

Would've (no pun intended...maybe) wood've😉, used the dowel attached to the back of the board with the knife instead of using my hands, doesn't matter, after effects wood've masked that out anywhoooo...great stuff guys, look forward to more

[@TheHornedalgaming]

The knife in the shot passing by his face looks strange. I think it's because you're comping a knife spinning in the same spot relative to the camera and moving it across the frame... where you'd normally also have angle differences of the light when it's on the left side of frame and when it's on the right side of frame that now gets completely lost making the Knife look like it's not interacting correctly. Think spinning it in place but also moving the camera right to left to add that knife relative to camera would fix that (instead of moving the knife, that was an issue with walking bumps).

[@JoshGreensVLOG]

It seriously looks so good!!! Great episode y'all!

[@Aafanyu]

ryan, josh!!! i challenge you to make this ultimate one, do the "tenet" backwards fight scene, or some other cool scene from the movie in your next tut. please, please, please. I wont stop until you do it man, please

[@OneScenePodcast]

fun stuff, i say throw the board with knife on it with low velocity of course and with safety in mind, so you get great motion blur

[@Crunkboy415]

You can also create a hand crank out of the dowels, hold the rod with the free hand, then crank.

[@belivaboy]

Can you guys do the super speed effect like you guys did a few years ago but use lighting maybe using saber or your electricity pack

[@Mr.ThomasAnderson]

It looks like so much fun in the Triune offices, when are you hiring? I just want to see the basement where all the Josh clones are and possibly the old... Josh... bodies... you know what, never mind. BTW Dollar Tree sells chroma-green paper 3 for a dollar (maybe $1.25 now) that can be easily attached to cardboard or sticks. Just an alternative option

[@CosmicAmusement]

Awesome Effect!

[@congruityproductions]

Loved this episode! I definitely need to get me one of those beautiful digital surfboards

[@KyleCulver]

1:50 Ooooh, I get it... "Cutting this out." ...with a knife!

[@Razzzzze-mb2tm]

You should make a Playlist of backyard filmmaking. It will definitely help us.

[@jfilm7466]

I love my Ka-Bar D2 Extreme 😃

[@MinecraftBenny]

if you would be careful enough, couldn't you use a drill to rotate the knife with the board in order to get a nicer rotation and better control?

[@alexdib3915]

Looks great!

[@ErisedMediaCo]

Should have glued it to a fidget spinner on a stick… smoother spin with ability to twist faster if needed.

[@davidhutapeatarutung13]

🗣️ can you tell me is there many Hollywood actors like Steven Seagal and Jason Statham, are they can really do throw knife or they did that help by CGI technologi to look good.....

[@adventurefilms]

so for the shot where the knife is rotating here;s two way of doing it: 1. all you need is 4 C-Stands and two pieces of EMT tubing. Set the C-Stands about 2 feet from each other across the distance you want the knife to fly through the frame, then use a piece of AL. tubing with a magnet inset into the end stick that on the knife and then lay that piece of tubing across the two pieces of EMT tubing then simply roll the AL tubing along the EMT tubing to have a very clean and level rotation across your lens field of view. you can thank me later... 2. to simply this even more, use two jack stand with the ability to give the height you need the knives flight path and lay a 2X8 on them with the length you need, then roll the AL tubing with the end magnet along the 2X8 down the length of the board.

[@sespider]

Now get another of those monitors and place one above the other, but angled at you. You'll be in Heeeeeeeeavennnn!

[@colinmemery63]

Q. Do you find issues from screen EMF's Radiation face burn as we found on Apple Mac editing suite after a number of day including std breaking periods from editing. Have you encountered such FX

[@PisaniProductions]

What would you have to do if you wanted to put the reflection of the actor in the knife?

[@loranbolding8670]

Y'all are so funny 🤣

[@ImaginationFolder]

Yeah, I was wondering how it looked so real. Then I see you used a real knife. In the real location. Makes sense lol

[@watchvidz7162]

This is fire!!!

[@pixeltownfilms]

Wow... Great work. Can you do a tutorial on how to tie wire for action or fighting scenes?

[@randomvfxcreator8521]

Do any of you have advice on vfx contests? I know you made a video about that a while back, but I want to know where I can join one

[@rubenrodriguez2590]

How did you key it with the green spill hitting the blade??? That is my biggest issues with keys... can you help?

[@nbentertainment3840]

[@CortesFantásticosOficial]

Awesome!

[@CrashTv3166]

Awesome video one problem, I’m delivering pizza and every time the important part comes on Siri say “ make a left turn at the next stop sign “ FAAAAAAAACK

[@karma-shorts116]

Why would you rotate a flat knife? In a 2d space?😮

[@omarmansour3621]

i would like to focus on the lesson then talk about screen or before the lesson anything except in the middle thanks.

[@nathannab2089]

Wow. This is great

[@insanityfilms]

link of the monitor missing !

[@lexxwayne154]

Why cant you spin the knife in place and just move the lights?

[@rlomeli1814]

What kind of monitors were they? I didn’t see it.

[@DethronerX]

Light and reflections moving, shit, i know I'd just have used a still, but now never doing that hahaa thank you

[@bobcharlotte8724]

I miss skinny Josh.

[@sleepy450]

Noice! 👍

[@WildHorseProductions]

Time to practice doing this with a dozen knives against a Japanese highschool student in Egypt

[@adventurefilms]

LOL, why didn't you take the monitors out of the boxes before you did the joisting bit? LOL

[@IanHecht]

Did I miss the link to the new monitors? Not that I want to buy one, I just want to drool over it, you understand...
