[@CzechMate44]

BROOOOOO Jordan's deception and the Taiyaki reveal might be my single favorite moment in this entire series

[@displeased-cat]

The fact that Taiyaki even animated the Bridge by hand makes it so much more authentic for me. It looks way more like a guy in a costume walking through a way to stiff cardbord prop than if it was to be simulated. It conveys the scale of "Thats a miniature set" way better i feel like.

[@C2Design]

I've worked on some CGI that was meant to mimic stop motion (for advertising) and here's some of the things we learned. 1. Animate on twos - most stop motion is usually just 12 fps doubled and helps achieve that recognizable look. 2. No motion blur. It feels unnatural but you can't achieve it when shooting single frames so it affects the visual style. 3. We did a super subtle jitter in post to the exposure. When shooting stop motion, your individual frames are never EXACTLY identical so there is this tiny flicker that happened between frames. If you want it to look like less professional stop motion, you exaggerate that effect a bit. Lastly, we were trying to mimic Claymation specifically, so we had animated displacement maps to subtly "move" the surface of the clay between frames. (and our texture maps included small dents, nicks and even scanned fingerprints.)

[@MrAwsomeness360]

*_"2. No motion blur. It feels unnatural but you can't achieve it when shooting single frames so it affects the visual style."_* Tell that to Phil Tippett, who surpassed Ray Harryhausen's work by incorporating motion blur in his stop-motion animation. Star Wars, RoboCop, Dragonslayer, Prehistoric Beasts, etc.

[@BlackhartFilms]

I actually was involved in working on this one! I was part of the team that ran the LED volume in NY for Fallout. We worked on the Vertibird shots, as well as several shots you might not have realised were on the volume inside the Vault atriums, and in the Observatory in Ep8. It was a combination of techniques used. Vertibirds were largely car-process plate shoots as described but there was actually some tracking involved for the walls, but the interiors were Unreal engine and fully tracked as well.

[@myeditedhandle]

yall did great man, so much of this movie looked so good, not to mention how great the story, music, and characters are.

[@ArtflPhenix]

how did you guys did simulate the light and propelling blades?

[@BlackhartFilms]

@@ArtflPhenix For the Vertibird interior shots, the plates on the screen were driven by a live 2D compositing software called Vertex by Ioversal. We actually had the pleasure of having the founder and developer on set helping us to develop new mapping and extra features to run this show. For the flicker, because its 2D comp work, you can do exactly what you would imagine you'd do in After Effects- add a black rectangle, script or keyframe it with some rotation, dial in the speed, and then play that back. Maybe feather the edges a bit or tweak the speeds until things look right. This could also be supported with some strobing from the physical lights on set which were being controlled via DMX from a lighting console.

8:20 “aerodynamically speaking, the aircraft cannot fly this way” *MV-22 Osprey enters the chat*

[@SirWrender]

Well yeah, look at the size of the rotors and the wings on the Osprey. THAT is an aerodynamic vehicle! The Vertibirds aren't correctly proportioned to be able to fly IRL.

[@inquisitorheadsmash5747]

The body of the Vertibird is the issue. With a body that big and rotors that small, it wouldn’t be able to fly. If you look at a Osprey, it has big propellers and a body that is shaped to be aerodynamic

[@adamsmiths3016]

​@@SirWrendernot trying to argue just further the discussion. Would it be possible within the fallout universe they found a way to power a aircraft like a osprey with a reactor that would allow it to fly even without being aerodynamic?

[@SeanBlader]

@@adamsmiths3016 I would suggest definitely. They don't have to carry fuel, they don't have to carry two combustion engines, although they are shown as being osprey style jet engines in the nacelles, it would've been very easy for them to be electric and powered by a tiny fusion core. Then yes, the smaller rotors and bigger but lighter chassis would function just fine with the rotors spinning at higher speeds. Honestly I think the quote “aerodynamically speaking, the aircraft cannot fly this way” is really more nitpicky than anything else, and after they were willing to wave away the nuke blast speed for narrative's sake, I think suggesting that "with a body that big and rotors that small, it wouldn’t be able to fly" is disingenuous. It is technically correct but there's a lot in Fallout games and the show that is really fantastical, and picking on the Vertibirds is honestly the least of it's technical issues. I would've said, "they're close enough to an Osprey that I'll let the details slide."

[@julianholcroft9625]

It could fly the rotors just have to spin much faster.

[@MichaelROLeary]

My thoughts on the fake eye on Chris Parnell's forehead is less about thinking that's where it would originally have been replaced later and more that they wanted a reference for other actors to look at because their glances may dance between the side-by-side eyes where as here they're looking at a specific spot horizontally centered.

[@flochfitness]

Dang, good call

[@Satellaview1889]

Yeah that was my thought as well. It’s like the red trackers they used for Ultron and Thanos for the Avengers movies. When you have big guys, you need the actors to be looking in the right spot, so you just throw something basic in place to keep their eyes from wandering.

[@kurtacus3581]

That too, or my other thought was that the character might have originally had three eyes but they changed their mind and gave him one eye instead

[@antonliakhovitch8306]

​@@kurtacus3581Lucy verbally describes his eye in the script, so that's not possible.

[@Great_Wall_of_Text]

​@antonliakhovitch8306 Scripts change, and scenes are re-shot. It certainly could have been that he intended to have three eyes regardless of the dialog. I don't think that is what happened, but the dialog does not prove the idea false.

[@wirelesmike73]

Not only did he nail the look of old film, he nailed the look of the lighting that was available at the time. The differences between what was supposed to read as stop-motion, a man in a suit, and then what looks to me to be two different kinds of puppets - (one larger for head, mouth, and arm movements for close-ups, and a friggin hand puppet for "distance shots") were near perfection. Every bit of that stuff looked like it had been captured in camera. That's frighteningly well done, especially for what is essentially a "hobbyist". That is pure talent. Bravo!

[@PopStrikers]

Godzilla '54 is burned into my brain so when I saw these clips I was like "Is this like a different scan of the og film or something?" Still didn't click until the reveal. Fantastic work

[@cvv6384]

Same thing happened to me

[@bot_2412]

The tanks were really confusing until the reveal. I've never seen the original Godzilla movie, but I'm pretty sure some of those tanks in the Blender animation were Comet medium tanks. I was questioning if Japan actually used scale models of them instead of models of prototype Chi-To / Chi-Ri or postwar Sherman tanks for the original movie!

[@levischorpioen]

Same. My first reaction was "God, that's such a dogshit transfer. My copy doesn't have nearly as much film grain." I believed the footage to be from the actual film. I was just amazed that Corridor would choose such poor image quality for their channel. Oh, to be a Kaiju nerd xD

[@monstermaker40]

WOW! In The Mouth Of Madness! I worked on that huge creature, way back when, at KNB EFFECTS Group. WE called that creature "the parade float" I was almost entirely fabricated out of foam with sculpted animatronic heads. I think it was about 20' wide and 12' long and had multiple performers inside of it. Very cool to see it here on CorridorCrew! Big fan for a long time guys👍🏼

[@teamredshirt]

Not sure how familiar you are of Warhammer 40k, but i got a real Genestealer cult vibe from that shot. Almost like they used it as inspiration for early 2000's art. Its likely a coincidence, but still, that front right monster is almost perfectly posed like one of the models.

[@ItsFreakinHarding.]

Props to Taiyaki and that Godzilla clip that he made, it looked amazing, but I'm a huge fan of Godzilla and have watched the '54 movie many times since I was a kid, and quickly realized that it was not from the original movie. Especially the stop motion stuff and the train sequence. But the fact that he did that all by himself in blender is phenomenal!

The 1954 Godzilla suit was sooo dang hot from the studio lights and very little ventilation, that Haruo Nakajima could only stay in the suit for like 3 minutes. He sweated so much that the crew had to manually reline the insides basically every day. Nakajima then went on to play Godzilla 11 more times, then various other monsters in 8 other films, plus various other monsters in the original Ultraman series from the 60s.

I can't fathom how much that sucked- I've worked in a haunted house outdoors in the fall and that costume was pretty hot haha

I knew the Godzilla clip was a trick from the beginning.... but only because the suit design was wrong for that movie. I had no idea it was all CGI. That was INCREDIBLE!

[@DionStabber]

I don't think the Overseer's fake eye was for CGI reference at all, as you guys said they had his real eyes right there. It was probably primarily for the other actors to make eye contact with and secondarily for the DP to frame the shot around.

[@coolgreenbug7551]

like cardboard thanos

[@hammurabiofbabylon8035]

Agreed

[@ctakitimu]

And when we talk to someone, we tend to focus on one of their eyes, then we switch to other etc. Having just the central one would help the actress

[@kjw42]

Ella Purnell (who plays Lucy) basicly confirms this in an interview with the BBC Radio 1: she says even with the third eye it was difficult for her to get the eyeline right in the closeup shots, so at one point Chris Parnell offers to do the scene with his real eyes closed (in the end they worked it out without that)

[@lonelylama5222]

But the eye isn’t even in the right spot, so that doesn’t really work out.

[@mrquirky3626]

But the Ospreys have much longer wing spans to help provide lift when the plane flies forward. The wings of the vertibirds in both the game and TV show are too short too really allow that bulky fuselage to fly in real life.

[@RaphaelChan888]

I hope Taiyaki sees this video. If I created that Godzilla Blender video, the biggest honour would be watching all these reactions and respect from Corridor Crew

[@Satellaview1889]

Personally, some of my favorite CG food is in Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs. The way the food in that film looks is so dynamic, each piece fulfills a different role from texture and sound, to the way it’s animated.

[@Antenox]

The fake third eye is for Lucy to focus on so that her eyeline is correct, because otherwise her eyes would be switching back and forth left and right between his real eyes

[@Pir-o]

Cause apparently just looking between his eyes was impossible lol. It was more likely used as reflection reference.

[@Antenox]

@@Pir-o It's easier if you have something to focus on, so they stuck a piece of rubber onto his head and for funsies made it look like an eye. They do it for CG characters all the time because we, as humans, are very sensitive to other people's line of sight. Why is THIS the thing you decide to act pompous about?

[@seryal]

@@Antenox lol for real, piro is a douche. i thought the exact same thing you did. i figured it was for the actor to look at.

[@Pir-o]

@@Antenox She's also not a child but a grown up who knows how to focus her eyes on a point right above his nose for couple of scenes lol. You do stuff like fake heads when you making cgi giants or huge animals so actors know where the head supposed to be. But to say actors are big enough idiots that they need a huge plastic eye is ridiculous my dude lol. I know people say actors are dum dumbs but cmon. Even if you want to believe they are dump enough not to focus on a specific part of the face, a marker would work just as well lol.

[@Pir-o]

​@@seryal If you need a huge fake plastic eye cause you can't look at someones nose, you also need to be reminded not to open your mouth every time it's raining otherwise, otherwise u will drown. There's a way more much logical explanation than "people too dumb to look between eyes"

That Godzilla "remake" is absolutely awesome. Completely nailed it, from the stop-motion look to the lighting and the scale that's just "slightly off". I was completely fooled. Also: Just rewatched At the Mouth of Madness a few days ago and was wondering what you guys would say about it. There are other very impressive shots in it, although the one you picked is definitely ridiculous for the amount of work they put into getting those few seconds.

But I have been completely blown away by this show called Alice in Borderland. From showing an empty Tokyo street in broad daylight in the pilot episode to having an amazing long take of a car chase sequence in an emptied city block(/s) in first episode of season 2, I couldn't fathom the amount of hard-work the team has put behind this show! I'd really love it for you guys to check it out. Thank you for doing what you do:)

[@Derl30]

In the Mouth of Madness and John Carpenter knew less is more. Also the creatures are supposed to be Lovecraftian Old Ones, where getting a full view of them would drive you insane, so the tight close-ups and out of focus shot are thematically appropriate.

[@Durwood71]

Isn't that the film that ends with Sam Neil's character sitting in a theater and watching the film he was just in while laughing hysterically? A very strange movie that was more confusing than frightening.

[@Derl30]

@@Durwood71 strange, yes. I wouldn't consider it a straight horror film though. It's more psychological, or even existentially horrifying than straight horror. It all makes sense too, especially upon a second viewing. He realizes all the agency he thought he had was utter rubbish. In the end, he may very well have been nothing more than a two dimensional character in a cheapo horror novel, doomed from his own lifeless inception.

[@thechap82]

In Fallout, the single eye prop on the forehead is probably for practical reasons, to assist the actor opposite him. So that they stare/look at only one location in the face. Having both eyes on the face would have unintentional eye darts as they look at either eyes.

[@SA12String]

That Taiyaki scene blew me away. I honestly thought it was straight from the original. I'm just flabbergasted.

[@mapkocc]

Fun fact! Wren correctly identified them as small nukes, as it was an intentional decision in the show. In the Fallout universe, back to the original 1997 manual, the nukes involved in the Great War all have a small yield (250-750 kt), which throws fallout a shorter distance up in the atmosphere compared to larger nukes, which means less particles get filtered on the way down, leading to the longer-term effects of that fallout's radiation in the game world. If the war happened with large yield, later Cold War nukes, radiation would not be nearly as present in the game world 70 years into the future, which is something the original devs thought of and accounted for.

[@BadassRaiden]

Alongside First Man and Oblivion, Wren forgot to mention that Nolan also did this for Interstellar and was in fact, one of the first high budget, epic films - if not the first - to do this. Now I don't know if Nolan used that same giant curved screen, actually I think they used projectors, but I do know that all of the shots from the interior of the Ranger spacecrafts where you can see stuff outside the windows, or there are reflections on their helmets, or lights on their faces, that's all in camera. All the actors could literally look out the window of the Ranger model that they were in and see the wormhole/black hole Gargantua with their own eyes. Anne Hathaway said the first time she saw it while shooting it brought her to tears because she was just in so much awe.

[@gabrielthegamingking3628]

14:27 That THX sound is perfection. Wren’s known reality has been completely shattered 😂

[@nightspicer]

The "CHARGE " Blender short would be awesome as well. As well as *Aslan from the Chronicles of Narnia!* where you could do a comparison to the "live action" Lion King. Also at the end of second Chronicles of Narnia movie there's a big water creature, so it might be cool to see what you think about that. The *last agni kai fight from ATLA* would be perfect for for the Animators React. It's so stunning! And for stuntmen react It would be cool to see you react to the duel from "Potop", it's really good sword fight

[@Naztash]

One of the big giveaways is that the blur looks wrong from the start. Another easy to spot one, is how the texture streches on the neck of the "costume" when moved.

[@daweaselgeek1430]

I was so confused on the Godzilla clip because I watched it relatively recently and I knew my viewing partners and I would have been over the moon about that stop-motion train attack and I didn’t remember it.

[@Vesohag]

The point of those two frames is to be so much info and so little time for you to not be able to grasp what you saw. A bunch of cool looking puppets but still puppets and rubber suits. It works great for the horror of just having a glimpse of this huge monstrosity that is chasing John Trent. And what a underrated movie really!

[@guicaldo7164]

In defense of the “Mouth of Madness” scene: Barely seeing the creatures makes the scene SO much scarier. You only see them for _just_ long enough to register a nightmarish scene, but any longer and you’d start seeing the rubber suits and the illusion would fall apart. This manages that eldritch horror “mass of flesh too outlandish to fully comprehend”-feel

[@scott745]

The vertibirds absolutely could fly from an aerodynamic perspective, we already have a real world (near) equivalent in the osprey. For sure the wings are a bit short in the fallout 4 model that they use but from memory I believe the vertibirds in 1 and 2 the props are angles slightly upward which would help with the lack of lift from the stubby wings, additionally the nuclear fusion aspect of the fallout universe would certainly aid in making these things "feasible"

There's a non military Osprey like plane, as well.

That Godzilla clip is one of the best clips in the history of this series. Send that one straight to VFX HoF!

[@BrendanSpengler]

The makeup job on Walter Goggins ‘transformation’ on Sons of Anarchy is way more juicy than Fallout.

[@kenk7875]

“CG-eye” lol

[@i-deni-i5138]

I felt Wren's reaction. That was one of the, if not the most mindblowing thing I've ever seen. Wow!

[@KngMaxwell]

“cartoony artist” is a weirdly great way to describe Fallout as a whole

[@Believers_asso77f]

Thanks for keeping us updated! I feel sympathy and empathy for our country. low income people are suffering to survive, and I appreciate Deborah. You've helped my family with your advice. imagine investing $30,000 and receiving $95,460 after 28 days of trading.

What opportunities are there in the market, and how do l profit from it?

[@Pedrorodriguez24187]

You can make a lot of money from the market regardless of whether it strengthens or crashes. The key is to be well positioned.

[@JosephKumar6]

I would really like to know how this actually works.

[@Believers_asso77f]

All you need is a good capital, and the service of a professional broker, with those your investment will most certainly produce high yields.

[@JosephKumar6]

Do you have an idea of any good broker I can start with?

[@Zeromus5555]

The cyclops cgi was the most convincing I've ever seen on film. So good.

[@KaosMaximo]

and THAT is why Jordan is the best, we love you man what a great episode! thanks for sharing that haha

[@superkaboose1066]

That Godzilla reveal was absolutely INSANE!!

[@fahriherlangga7607]

The truth about the godzilla is absurdly mindblowing, YOU'RE NUTS Taiyaki

[@ClaytonBrownMusicOfficial]

10:07 I swear to God that man’s eating it longways like a sociopath.

[@dramen]

Wow wow WOW at that Blender animation holy shit! Incredible...I did wonder for a sec what version of old Godzilla this was lol as I thought we'd seen all of them on this channel haha but no way did I catch it was anything animated...no way at all, even watching it back. Incredible effort Taiyaki, thank you for making this!

[@MrAwsomeness360]

Trivia: the design in the Godzilla '54 Blender short is based on the concept maquette when Toho originally finalized the character design. I personally prefer the concept design over the final suit design because the former is the Godzilla's appearance in his purest form, straight out of the imagination.

[@CMANIM]

For the Cyclops Overseer, I think the fake eye is more for the other actors to focus on while talking to them, so their eyeline lines up with the CG-Eye

[@shApYT]

Absolutely incredible that godzilla recreation

[@brown2889]

Yeah, that 1954 Godzilla animated footage, 🍒 Cherry! I like this kind of minute millisecond type work but man it takes sooo much time. To do it right you do have to have kinda put yourself into the frame of whatever it is you’re animating. I really enjoyed this break down and I have loved Godzilla movies since I was born. Fallout the series is awesome sauce!

[@a-rod48]

I'd love to see more Star Trek clips, especially some of the newer content. Discovery has some very beautiful Volume shots, especially in the Series Finale. Also of note in the final season was the scene where Lok is introduced that admittedly is a bit uncanny valley, considering he's see through jelly for a bit. Also Strange New Worlds uses the volume well. The shot where a couple characters walk out onto the hull of the ship without EVA suits on is a personal favorite. And It'd be cool to hear your thoughts comparing the 2d animated shots of the portal planet in the Lower Decks crossover and the Live Action+CG background shots of the same area.

[@PeterYamasaki]

To add to the Godzilla theme, I'd love to hear your take on the effects used in "Godzilla Minus One." Thinking about the water effects - such as when Godzilla was pursuing the wooden minesweeper). Also some of the transitions from CG to live action - like when Godzilla has the train in his mouth and it transitions to Noriko hanging inside one of the train cars.

[@trillivmmusic]

I can’t help but love the episodes where it’s just the crew. The energy is so much fun! Love the show regardless but the crew ones are special fr

[@ShadowChaoSP]

I was working on the explosion shots! There were so many different versions of these, the timing and look of the shockwaves and the explosions, especially the drone shot. It was so much fun working on these.

[@Peaceful_Gojira]

In the Mouth of Madness is a highly underrated Lovecraftian horror film. I watched it a few years back. Not so much shocking, but more so psychologically horrific- the concepts and the story's implications on what true madness becomes. EDIT: Also, that Godzilla clip was so on-point, and I love that the Corridor Crew were deceived, because honestly: if you haven't watched the first movie in forever, you'd also think "wait, this is from the movie? I don't remember that EXACTLY like that...hmmm, maybe?" Haha, so awesome. I think the only massive gripe I had for that clip was the lacking in floppy Godzilla spinal horns...those things in older films with the costumed actors ALWAYS had some kind of jiggle/floppy physics to it, and here the horns don't wobble at all, if not hardly. But honestly, for a single person who put this together in so short a time on a small channel, he nailed it. I hope he goes very far. Kudos, for sure.

[@UncleManuel]

14:24 was my exact reaction, too! I REALLY thought this was a clip from the old Godzilla movie - my mouth stood open for like 2 minutes straight! 😁😁

[@erthboy47]

idk which is more scary, the john carpenter monster clip or the way niko eats a burrito

[@naneek2]

Tayaki gave his godzilla animation the "sky captain" fake film treatment, that's really what sells the animation.

[@6320mOvierObOt]

As a huge fan of Mad Max and Fury Road, I was so hyped for Furiosa, but honestly, the effects this time around were majorly distracting. I would love to hear your guys' input and reactions!

[@joshrich507]

I wish they linked Taiyaki’s channel the description or a pinned comment, but I loved this whole episode!!

[@PabloEdvardo]

4:20 (nice), the fake eye is probably for Lucy's actor to stare at when talking. People naturally lock onto one eye and sometimes shift between them when talking to someone, so having a fixed centered frame of reference for the other actor(s) would probably sell the effect even more! If so, great small detail!

[@padoco73]

Simulation of stop motion using traditional animation (the less labor intensive version) 1-Set the frame rate to something lower than your intended frame rate. (i.e., if you want 30 fps, work at 18-24 fps) 2-bake the animation. 3-convert the keyframes to stepped animation. 4-Change the frame rate to your intended frame rate. 5-Manually adjust keyframes as needed.

[@EvilLOON]

CV-22 Osprey vs the Vertibird. Great video as always!

[@matthewbaker1841]

I can't believe they finally talked about Fallout and didn't talk about the bad CGI rain at the Red Rocket. I immediately thought of Corridor Crew when I first saw it

[@jorgencamera]

Nobody talks about this series, maybe because there isn’t much to talk about, but the series is called Mr. Corman. I love the effects they used in a certain episode called “Many Worlds.” I think it’s an awesome episode that may needs more appreciation.
