Fun fact about what they said about the gun in the doom clip being filmed separately, is that in First Person Shooter games the gun is also being rendered independently by a different camera put on top of the rest. That way if you clip the weapon through something, by being to close to a wall for example, the model will always appear in its entirety instead of half of it being behind a wall.

Looking closely at the geometry, if you walk right up to a wall in most FPS games holding a long gun, it should either collide with or clip through the wall, but in most games it doesn’t. It’s rendered as a seperate element so that the end never clips into things.

Cant remember where you were first discovered... maybe ebaumsworld or albinoblacksheep, one of those E/N sites where you were surely hot linked. The love of your work has stuck with me from the first moment your videos played... Which is my onewheel (or Segway) into my next feeling... CptD, without you, and that gift of love you've passed along... all the entertainment, KNOWLEDGE and joy... bolstering my already curious mind every time I watch a CptD vid. I truly believe I'd never have found Corridor Digital.. Corridor Crew... you and your team were and are there for me at a time I needed... something.. wasn't sure at the time (my dark ages as I like to refer to those years) what it was at that time but.... CD.. EVERYTHING you guys do... changes me for the better. I look for learnable and teachable moments everyday... you all continue to provide something I very much NEED (not just want) everyday. That video of Niko and how he manages people... *chef kiss* I'm in management... happy to admit, I stole from your "bag of tricks". NAY! You inspired me to be better. Thank you for always leaving things better than you found it. Thanks for being such AMAZING educators. I'm passing my love for VFX (specifically break downs) down to my kids. We watch movies differently now because of you all. As a single dad of 2, its not always easy to connect with children. CaptD and CC... Thank you so much.

[@zacspear9826]

The ending brought a tear to my eye. Love your work xx

[@tables8489]

I love this video. My first vfx channel that I watched was Captain D and to see him here is jaw-dropping. Heartwarming.

[@FrankEGee88]

I just want to let you know, I couldn't stop smiling the entire time. So, so, soooo happy to see the captain with you all! Mad love and respect all around. Thanks for sharing, and take care!

[@flaagan]

It almost seems weird having on as himself and not the captain, you forget how much of just a chill laid back dude he is when he's not hamming it up as the Captain.

[@Holly1000]

What do you mean? That was his intern Alan, the Captain obviously wasn't available.

[@GumSkyloard]

@@Holly1000 Thanks Holly.

[@stormqueen29]

Eeeeek!! I LOVE Captain D!! He taught me how to debunk "ghost" videos so well, I spend my time annoying commenters and people who post "ghost" videos when I'm bored. People really hate how logically I can point out how they were done. And it's all thanks to Captain D and Corridor Crew. And I love how much you guys have taught me. Don't look for the most convoluted way it could have been done. Look for the simple tricks, and you'd be surprised how easy they can be to spot.

[@michaeljames1296]

by far my favourite. CC video to date. lovely to see and just a pleasure to watch!

[@s0nicfreek]

This is great! I love seeing both of these creators analyzing VFX together!

[@UnCoverOne]

I've been waiting for this since you mentioned it in episode 20 and I'm ready for the greatest collaboration of all time.

[@tyler7690]

Same

[@jimmysgameclips]

So happy to have these two channels. I couldn't recommended Captain Disillusions BTTF videos enough

[@post-monk671]

I love that CD was on the show. I've been watching his videos for four years now and CC for the last 2 years and seeing this collab is epic!

[@Arassar]

It never really occurred to me how insane it was to stand in front of the DeLorean as it was accelerating like that. If it didn't jump successfully they would have both died XD

[@ziomkris1]

Yeah, I'm not sure this would be such a amazing movie then. Just two guys killed by RC DeLorean lol

[@DJTimeLock]

@@ziomkris1 it would be a lot cheaper at least

[@xsanguine8]

It's very self-destructive right up to that point, the Doc has made a lot of failed inventions, and quite a few things have blown up in Marty's face. Then he makes some illegal dealings with the Libyans, to finally make the one masterpiece that actually works, or kill him and his teen friend before the authorities or terrorists can catch up with him.

[@marc.lepage]

Yeah I thought it was reckless.

[@Metaljacket420]

The guns in 1st person being a separate element from the scene is very smart to emulate feel of games.

[@Nerketur]

My two favorite VFX channels. Found you guys because of clock blockers, and found Alan because of debunking. It's great to see you both in one place. I still want Clock blockers to be made into a game.

[@RefractionStudios]

Everything I know about VFX is from you guys...including everyone who has worked with you and don't anymore and i still follow. the VFX breakdowns is how i learned how to do all the cool shit i know how to do. I just learned about Captain Disillusion today, and will watch his content to further my knowlege. Thank you guys for everything. I want to break in to VFX, and I am one step closer every day!

[@enlightendbel]

Fuck, seeing a flash of James Randy on that Captain Disillusion clip, I went to check how he's doing and apparently, the grandad of what Captain and the Corridor Crew do in reacting to videos has died just over a year ago. Granted, he lived to a ripe old age of 92. He'll be missed and should never be forgotten.

[@jimmydean8007]

The "Amazing Randi" was the OG Debunker of bullshit artist and almost all but forgotten if CD hadn't featured him in a video for the young generation. I seen him when I was a kid make people look like clowns on national TV and have never forgotten the lesson he taught.

[@enlightendbel]

@@jimmydean8007 I also saw him as a kid but did see more of him in the 90's and 00's as many skeptics and atheism upstarts on KZbin and other platforms included his mindset and himself in their videos and thinking. Penn and Teller were also good friends with Randy and they had practically the same mindset in terms of magicianship too. And they also did programs exposing bullshit and charlatans. People should know, Randy had a prize challenge to psychics and other paranormal claimants that started in 1964 and ended with his retirement in 2015 for starting at $10K and growing to $1M in the 00's. The prize was never successfully claimed while all these people needed to do was demonstrate their powers and abilities on camera without Randy or people like Penn and Teller being able to replicate or debunk them where they stood.

[@JennySYS]

captain d really changed the course of my life. now im going to film school and just excited to become a VFX artist and filmmaker, all because i found his channel way back in 2014. so glad to finally see him on vfx artists react

[@Dynas13]

After looking at Doom, it reminded me of another POV movie called Hardcore Henry which is almost entirely POV action, It'd be cool to check that out

[@domonkosludvig3314]

I love this guy so much! His thoughts are so in line with mine its crazy... like when he said "check out this stuff we worked so hard on" on the doom cgi... I probably copied his thought process, but still, its so satisfying!

[@DeathBringer769]

Finally, the crossover we've all been waiting for! I was afraid Captain D would never appear on this show after his own episode where he made fun of Corridor for having "exaggerated reactions" (briefly showing a clip of Clint freaking out) lol. Glad it was just a little joke and not him seriously disliking the Corridor guys, since I am a fan of both their content ;)

[@DemsW]

yeah and they even adressed it I thought it would be much more akward (even it still was pretty akward compared to normal episodes)

[@argh01hass]

I love that they used Alan's react face in the thumbnail for real 😂 Way to troll him back 👍

[@ayaanpawar8681]

We need Ryan and Josh on the show!!!! (film riot - I'm sure everyone knows...) They are the OGs who have helped millions get into VFX (me included). Do ittttt.

[@Pheuri]

Captain D (and i guess Alan) is the spark that ignited my love for VFX and is the reason I question everyting - Thank you CC !

[@thomasdraper3566]

Captain Disillusion is one of the coolest youtubers out there no cap. I want more of him cuz he knows so damn much ! Also that hose kid essentially just needs that on his resume, it’s a great practical and art effect.

[@matdoosh]

I don't watch these until my lunch on Monday, but let me tell you how extra excited I am that The Captain is here! (Or at least his chump assistant Alan. He's busy I guess)

[@gwendyp125]

😂

[@tonny.c]

Captain Disillusion is probably the only guy left from the beginnings of KZbin that has about -1000 scandals and dramas. Absolutely pure, hardworking good guy

[@GhostDrummer]

I’ve been binging out on your channel. The amazing community that you guys have been building has been so fun to be a part of.

[@roachy72]

at 12:07 when you can see the hand bones cuz of the explosion, it looks like the character has webbed hands for a split second
