You guys have shocked me. I worked on those same shots that Adam Savage worked on for Matrix Revolutions 18 years ago, and until today, I had no idea he was behind the practical side of the FX. I animated the lightning coming off of the Mjolner ship as it crashed through the gate and fell. I can add to the narrative here. We ended up replacing much of the ship in CGI, presumably because the model had more detail added in post production. There were also CGI sentinel(squiddy) robots added at the bottom of frame, being kicked up by the debris and crash. I was impressed with how convincing the blue lightning looked in how it lit up the smoke elements.

Adam Savage is a legend. It's amazing how he can talk about himself without sounding narcissistic or like a jerk. He's just too wholesome and has a level of excitement for things that few people likely even get to experience. I have a feeling he's one of those people that really just finds absolute joy in knowledge and in learning. You could tell him about programming concepts, VFX, or how to fix a door hinge and he'd look at you with the same genuine enthusiasm that he does everything. What an awesome guy.

[@GlennDavey]

Because people talk about themselves from a place of entitlement. Exude gratitude with everything you do and say and folks will give you a lot of room to big-up yourself. Gratitude is the opposite of entitlement. Adam Savage nailed it a long time ago.

[@provingzebra]

I think he’s just a very special type of person who can manage to maintain his level of enthusiasm for his job for decades. Dude seems to have never felt anything but love for what he’s doing.

[@_lime.]

I think it's because he talks about his work rather than himself. The focus is on what was done rather than on him having done it. He just has such a passion for the industry and it really shows. He's also always excited to highlight the work of others with a wonderful sense of admiration and appreciation.

Contemporaneous reports on the Jurassic Park production (Cinefex?!?) mentioned that the production team joked that Tippett was part dinosaur or had lived back then because he could move like a dinosaur.

I love how with real fans, despite some disagreements with things like the script of the prequels, almost everyone agrees the work on the practical effects was absolute top notch. Personally I quite like the prequels, and I love the sets and models they did. And I love Adam's descriptions of how the set designers work in their own backstory to each prop or set model. You see similar depth of work with things like Blade Runner where the art department thought about the past use backstory of each item or building when designing it and it just adds so much nuance to the worldbuilding that's unspoken.

[@Great.Milenko]

If you like that kind of visual storytelling you'll love the production of Mad Max: Fury Road. They didn't write a script; instead, they made thousands of storyboards in which they could showcase all the different designs and visual worldbuilding that the artists had in mind; so the movie is cluttered to the brink with detail, but everything is cohesive and doesn't distract from the story, it just adds to it.

He was hella third wheeling it 😂 which sucks cuz Sam usually is the one cracking me up in these epsiodes and especially the podcast

[@grimsladeleviathan3958]

@@patheddles4004 I respect him for that. He noticed that Adam and Wren has the same level of enthusiasm that they're like two golden retrievers. He either knew he couldn't match their energy, or because of the short notice he was actually tired but those two were having their fun. Let em have it y'know?

If i could chose to have a coffe with any living person today, Adam Savage would be in my top 10. So nice to see him on the show, amazing guy.

[@blind3897]

@@brandondriver99 I don't have a set list, would have to think about it, but there are some people that were so influencial in my life (Like Adam Savage) that for sure make the list. As a child, Mythbusters was my favourite show, i have seen every episode more than once. Now as an Adult, the Tested channel is a mirror of what i wish i could do/be. He is a hero of mine no doubt, tought me so much.

He was uncomfortable

[@ipraytovodka]

@@mightymouse37 yeah there seemed to be something else going on there...like he was forced to replace Niko at last moment or something...

[@rockeyepunkcovers4921]

Yip. There's some weird energy here. Adam is angled towards Wren and only talking to Wren, it's quite awkward. It should have just been Wren and Adam if Nico had to pull out, and they could have just explained that at the top, it wouldn't have been a big deal.

[@manamaster6]

I love how passionate Adam speaks of his work. I grew up watching Mythbusters in Latin American Spanish, so it is a bit weird to listen to him in English, like it is not the same person, but I still admire his work and passion.

[@hun64597]

Man… Adam Savage is just such a joy. Everything he does is fascinating to watch. It doesn’t help that he’s always such a genuine guy. He just goes through life having fun. I strive to have as much fun in life as he does.

[@ProfessorGriffPDX]

It's so cool to see Grant and Tory in those old ILM photos. This was such a great episode

[@adamushu]

RIP Grant, he would have loved to be on this show with Adam, talking about models and his robots he made for movies.

[@csmithbo]

I usually just watch Tested or Corridor videos… so this combo is phenomenal… Adam please be on the show more!

[@tested]

Adam had a great time. He definitely wants to go back, and there should be a second episode from this day of filming!

[@Originalroninstorm]

Sam looks like he spent the whole episode trying not to fangirl all over Adam. 😂 Not that I blame him, I'd have the same problem.

[@peterpain6625]

I usually don't fangirl about talent but with Adam Savage i'd probably squeak like a 9y old meeting their biggest idol ;)

I love watching Adam talk about his stuff. He really lights up / little kid comes out. And hearing details of how a lot of that was done is cool.

[@erikhale5193]

The amount of positivity Adam Savage brings to everything he does is awe inspiring.

[@QuantumS1ngularity]

Damn, every time i see Adam i get hit by such a huge nostalgia surge. This guy filled my childhood and young adulthood, he made me passionate about science and most importantly taught me to question and test everything, no matter how silly or pointless it might look at first. Of course the rest of the Mythbusters crew also played a significant role in that, but somehow Adam was and still is the most vivid representation of the spirit of that show. Had HUUUUGE crush on Kari ( i mean who hadn't), laughed almost to unconsciousness with Tory and his ability to self inflict injuries, was completely amazed by Grant and Jamie's ability to built incredible stuff, but Adam was like the finishing touch to all of that. The pure unrated, unfiltered emotion coming out of him is what bridged the TV and the viewers. His grown child personality on the show bonded perfectly with the inner child in each and everyone of us. As for the video... well for me personally it's the best react video on this channel so far.

[@KirsiKitten]

This is, absolutely perfectly said. Ive had the same experience all through childhood and as an adult now I still watch his KZbin and builds and just the pure unfiltered passion he has for creating is absolutely contagious. It fuels and pushes me every time and I love him forever for sharing that passion all the time.

[@gloom303]

I can't believe you guys didn't ask him about his role in "The Expanse", especially because it's also a great VFX shot.

This was absolute nerd KZbin Gold. Adam was absolutely built for this platform … and for nerds. Thank you Corridor Crew for somehow making this happen, maybe Niko can be less selfish next time and be there in-person haha.

[@Zikar]

I've always loved Star Trek's ships, I often typify the difference between design philosophies is that Wars' ships are created by engineers, Trek's ships are created by artists. In Trek, the future is so utopic and resources so plentiful that they can literally spend time making sure that their ships are aesthetically pleasing, not just functional.

[@IxodesPersulcatus]

After a brief rundown, I now have a much better understanding of what makes the Star Wars aesthetic so appealing. Knowing what to keep an eye out for, it really helps paint a greater picture.

Dude it's getting weird. That youtube algorithm is has grown sentient and broke free from the matrix.

[@AleksandrMotsjonov]

exactly my thoughts.

[@MaxwellAerialPhotography]

The more i learn about the production of the prequels, the more i respect George Lucas. The man had issues with writing and at times direction, but he genuinely respect the craft of all the experts that he brought in to help create the world of star wars.

[@KanyeT1306]

It's why I think the Prequels work better than the Sequels. They had some real passion to them, whereas the Sequels feel a bit corporate from The Mouse.

[@FablestoneSeries]

It took many years for people to realize, but George wasn't the problem. It was all the sycophants he had surrounding him who weren't challenging him, or telling him the harsh truths he needed to hear. In his gut he already knew he had pushed the silly goofy slap stick stuff too far, but all the yes men surrounding him just kept telling him how amazing it would be.

[@Сайтамен]

@@FablestoneSeries Basically it boils down to people being flabbergasted that the people Lucas hired to help him make the prequels were largely in sync with him creatively (you know, as you might expect) and didn't constantly trash talk him while being filmed for behind-the-scenes footage. There's no real evidence that Lucas was surrounded by "yes men" to a greater extent than is usually the case. There's this whole mythology about how Lucas was constantly being challenged and put in his place by others during the making of the original trilogy, but if you do a little actual research you find very little evidence of that either, besides some claims made by disgruntled ex-producer Gary Kurtz who was fired halfway through Empire for incompetence and spent the next several decades constructing a self-aggrandizing narrative which recast himself as the hero of Star Wars.

[@cenciende9401]

@@KanyeT1306 Wrong. You clearly have no goddamn clue about JJ and TFA/RO were both great, if you want to blame someone blame Rian Johnson for screwing up the second film and by extension Kathleen Kennedy for hiring him.

[@FablestoneSeries]

@@Сайтамен challenging a person creatively doesn't involve trash talking them. I don't remember his name, he was one of the producers, and he is a real smooth talking, slime ball salesman. watching him in every clip, you immediately get the sense he was little more than a no talent cheerleader. George was suggesting they cut all the slap stick from the movies but this idiot was like cheering him on the whole time. You don't see this side of Hollywood much. There is the famous talk Kevin Smith did about the notorious producer who ruined his Superman movie with his ridiculous requests to have Superman never wear the suit, never fly, and to fight a giant spider. Every block buster movie flop in the last 30 years you can tie to producers interfering with the creative process for one reason or another. I work in film and have been fortunate enough not to work on any flops, but i have worked on enough movies that I seen morale suffer greatly due to the ridiculous decisions being forced on them by pencil pushing executives.
