I made lightsaber props on the prequels. We used a metal called durilium, and it kept on bending. But we kept on shooting with the actors fighting with bent rods. I remember pointing this out to a guy from ILM he said don't worry we paint in the glow afterwards. I said yes but youre going to have to paint out the bent rods as well, so it doubles the work loads on each shot. He looked kind of worried. We spray painted each of the the metal rods orange and green and then shrink wrappped plastic over them to stop flecks of paint firing off. The hero handles would be moulded with a large screw thread placed into the each cast which we would screw the duriluium rods onto.
Brown is dark orange, you can’t do a bright brown. However, I used to play with led lighting, and discovered that if I put a pure red light on one side and a light green on the other of a textured surface, the eye was tricked into seeing brown within the light & shadow, so perhaps if you did a white core with a flickering red and green surrounding glow, with enough adjustment it could look brown?
@@sub-vibes I agree. The Episode is fantastic. Short summary: Brown light does not really work because brown is just orange but darker. It is depends on context. Your display can show you brown light, because there are brighter things around it. A brown lightsaber can't really work because the lightsaber is supposed to be something thats brighter than its surroundings.
It's impossible to make a brown light, sure. But it's not impossible to make a darker color appear to glow. Sure, the brown lightsaber looks yellow. But the camo lightsaber had brown on it, and it looked brown. I do think that they could have pulled back on the fringing on some of them, to make it match the fringing of the regular sabers.
Heh, they skipped over my favorite low-tech lightsaber effect in the OT. When Obi-Wan faces Darth Vader and ignites his saber, there's no jump cut... because the reflective stick was already in place, and Alec Guiness was simply pointing the tip directly at camera so the length couldn't be seen. Then he rotated his wrist outward, and the camera's forced perspective made it look like the blade was extending.
There was a jump cut. Alec Guinness at first was just holding the handle. Then they froze the frame and handed him a new reflective light saber prop, and then they did what you described. But you are right, it's such a great low-tech manuever to achieve a great effect. I remember seeing this in the 1984 TV special that Mark Hamill narrated.
The original Star Wars still rotoscoped the color over the scene captured light reflections from the sabers. By hand. Plus they had on set pyro effects coinciding with saber impacts.
I was literally looking in the comments to see if anyone mentioned that. Congrats, Jim. On "The Making of Star Wars" I think they even show some of the rotoscope animation by itself.
Everyone alway, ALWAYS forgets about the clash effects. Even the Disney movies don't include them. Those bright yellow flash frames were an important component of the original trilogy, adding a visual impact to the clashes for the audience that was almost too quick to process. This is the sort of thing that gets lost to history and contributes to later effects not looking 'right' for those that saw earlier examples.
Yup! Lucas even put an homage to them in RotS with Kenobi's fighting position. Ryan may have done effects on that one as well, if I'm remembering correctly.
From what I see on their site they don't really lean into the whole "fragile man" demographic the way most of those sorts of products do. Their products are 100% geared towards stereotypically manly stuff, but they don't mention that anywhere on their site - - very welcome IMO because all that stuff is cool as hell and there's no shame in liking any of it but if it were me I'd be turned off by marketing that was like "HEY MAN! ARE YOU TIRED OF FEELING LIKE A GIRL? THEN BUY OUR KNIFE-A-LIFE KNIFE-PER-MONTH BOX"
Haha yea, I can accept people saying they weren’t that good, it’s okay to have their own opinion. But nobody can deny their position in the film history and will forever be remembered. The original series ofc.
6:17 I just gotta say that, when it comes to things that are dark with a glow, it would be sick to see a "Blackhole" style effect where it's an inverted glow. Instead of pumping light out into the radius it instead absorbs the light, warping it around a true black core.
they did something kind of like that with the darksaber, but there was still some white texture inside the black blade. SWTOR does have black core lightsabers in the game, so that's probably the closest you can see for now.
Rogue One was amazing for me tbh. I thought the scene where Vader opened his saber, and the red light illuminating him was the only light source... It was like the directors went "finally. we can use ambient light from sabers because our CGI is finally good enough.... lets go balls deep..."
Yeah, that's how I felt about the Rey vs Kylo Ren fight at the end of Ep 7. Not only were both sabers giving off illumination, but you could see the snow hitting the blades and sizzling. I loved how they could take such a well-worn effect and make it new again just by putting some modern twists on it.
I highly dislike that film for many reasons. But the production crew in every area did a damn fine job. The Vader scene was pure fan service, but it looked damn good.
Having followed you guys for over a decade now, it's amazing to see how far you've come and to see you bringing new talent into the industry with your amazing crew. Keep up the awesome work guys!
I love these professional dorks! Just seeing the BTS of Niko & Sam playing with the light sabers gave me extreme nostalgia. They are still up to the same shenanigans as they would many years ago. Love it!
4:42 When I was in school for visual effects back in 2001 we had a lesson on light sabers in After Effects. Yes, we were animating them manually frame by frame but we had several layers to make sure it had that white core, then colored glow around it.
Josh: "This is my first Video with you guys, what should I do to make sure the audience loves me?" Niko: "Just Be yourself" ~ Filming Video ~ Josh: "I only watched Star Wars once. I didn't think they were that good." Niko: "NOT LIKE THAT!"
As soon as you said Brown Lightsaber, I was reminded of Technology connections video about brown light and how it's just Orange with context. It's fascinating.
God, we haven’t seen Ryan vs Dorkman in a very long time. I still say Ryan vs Brandon is one of the best saber fights I’ve ever seen…but that’s just me.
Hate on the sequels all you want. Having LEDs shine on the actors' faces was amazing though. (Though attack of the clones did have closeups of Hayden Christensen and Sir Christopher Lee with lights on them)
it's so rare that you see anyone bring up the fact that the core of the lightsaber is actually the color of the blade and the reason why you dont see it is because it's overexposed. if it was really just white then the glow would be white too. if you saw a "real" saber in person the core color would be more obvious than it appears in the movies. like when you see people take video of their practical blades on youtube and the core appears white but in person you can see a very obvious color.
Niko introduces an interesting concept that I've thought about before too, which is that we can imagine light conditions that are physically impossible to create in reality. Imagine for instance a grey LED light that casts grey light. It seems pretty unremarkable but it's impossible without some sin city esque color grading because it would just be dim white light in reality.
The easier way to do a camoflaged light saber, would be to make it so its actually a blade that camoflages with whateve is behind it. So you could essentially do it with just a pixelation filter like whats used to censor part of a video. Make that look like a digital camo pattern.
Ryan vs. Dorkman! I haven’t watched those in years. Those videos were so absolutely phenomenal. The choreography was amazing, but the effects of the lightsabers cutting the environment around them was fantastic too
I really liked Sam talk about Dungeons and Dragons being an open source, we could really use some more info on what is available to artists to create or to sell or to make content from. If you're reading this please consider. ❤️
I like to imagine duels being so dance like because they can both see the future slightly, so it's a bigger game of chess than average sword fighting. Never got to see it in the last trilogy
Realistically, if you can both predict each others moves you wouldn't waste all your energy exchanging blows back and forth like that, though. Every fight would just be like the Rebels Obi-Wan versus Maul fight where it's mind games followed up by a singly decisive strike.
@@hiimchrisj realistically, real people with small measures of armed combat experience can "predict" one another's "moves" to a degree and it never results in mind games and one decisive blow because real people arent psychic and even if they were, you would have to account for human error, outside conditions, and luck. anyone who has ever been in a mock swordfight for more than a minute can tell you that no swordfight is ever that cut and dry. So, in short, normal people can achieve similar levels of "focus" and they would never conclude in the way you describe. Therefore, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Finally the Op said "I like to imagine". there was no need for you to come in with some sense of higher understanding of bladework where there clearly isnt any nor any need for it to begin with.
That's because we now have technology to create LED glow with proper stunt sabers. Almost all of the stunt saber makers that are out on the market today? Were used for the most recent renditions. Ahsoka Tano's own lightsabers in The Mandalorian Season 2, I don't doubt, were created by SOMEONE within the industry who has been making our personalized stunt sabers for kids and adults of all ages the last 20 years.
FUN FACT: The little round cylinder on the lower back of Storm Troopers were supposed to be LIGHTSABER HOLSTERS. Originally George Lucas was going to make them all Space Samurai. Then chickened out because it would make the script dumb in a bunch of places and the Jedi "Less special".
@@itsd0nk Which was a good thing. OT would be as shit as PT if Lucas was let 100% loose with his ideas. OT is as good as it is because his wife made it in the editing room.

Thank-you for not having the cringy business manager or whoever he is do the sponsor. First time ever I've watch the whole sponsor slot and actually clicked the link.
Oh man I was all excited I thought you guys were gonna compete to see if they could make a lightsaber look as good as it does in the sequel trilogy haha
Niko was so done with Sam and his efforts to push the lightsaber down.😂😂. I love these guy's. P.s I know they had a blast with that food, and that amazing wire saw is a must have. Loved today's sponsor.
I have a question. In all of the Star Wars lore, has there ever been a Jedi or Sith lord that has created a lightsaber solely from force energy? Like if a Sith lord can shoot lightning out of they're hands, why not be able to focus it into an actual force energy blade or something? Could that be a thing? Should that be a thing?
@@itsasquid there were, but those were actual weapons like swords or spears that were imbued with force energy. So not exactly what Bigtex was talking about.
Could it? Not really. If anything, the use of Force powers to manipulate lightning is considered a dark-sider technique, and also expends an enormous amount of physical willpower to achieve. Unless you're effectively immortal (which no one in Star Wars is), you couldn't create such a lightsaber. HOWEVER There are lightsabers in Legends that were designed to be activated with ONLY the Force. Unlike the grip panel used on other lightsabers, which included an effective kill switch to turn the saber off if one was disarmed or had it knocked out of one's hand, there are also Force-users who created an internal connection matrix that could only be activated if the made the connection through a tiny Force-push within the lightsaber mechanism as a whole.
*In a book there was a Lightsaber that wasn't actually like the ones we all know with technology it was just a kyber crystal strapped to a stick and the Jedi needed to use The Force to make it work, I think it's supposed to be the oldest Lightsaber in canon right now.*
Okay here's an actual, non-speculative answer. Yes, in the old EU, in a Darkhorse published comic series called "Dawn of the Jedi." It took place before even the Old Republic and before the Jedi when the Rakatan Infinite Empire controlled everything. There was a group called "Force Hounds" that were similar to Jedi except the were essentially slaves for the Rakatan. They used Forcesabers, which was just a handle that could channel dark side energy into a blade. The blades could be a variety of colors like traditional lightsabers, but because of it's nature, using one brought the user closer to the dark every time.
About the camo patern lightsaber It would've been cooler if you designed a procedural camo texture with 3d noise in blender or something else Then render the blade as volumetrics using it
Grew up watching Star Wars, but as an adult, I've gotten more into Trek. I'd love to see you do the same video on the transporter cg from the different Star Trek series.
I watched one of the early VHS copies from a rental store as a kid in the 90s and I remember that pale white lightsaber so clearly. The early less edited versions were so rough but in a charming way. Like watching Krull more for the nostalgia than the actual movie.
Sam: We need more time for the Dungeon And Dragons Video. What can we put on the corridor channel in the meantime? Niko: Let's makes a weird lightsabers video. 😂 BTW love you guys ❤️
Day 12 of asking Corridor Crew: Review the CG animation in the “Star Wars The Clone Wars” tv series across all seven seasons plus the spin off series “Star Wars The Bad Batch”
I have the original Star Wars on VHS and the other thing they did was take out a bunch of scenes. In the scene where Hon and Leia are arguing in the Snow Hallway on Hoth, Leia says she would rather kiss a Wookie then Hon. When Hon walks away off screen he yells "You could use a good kiss." In modern versions that is not said.
PLEASE VFX Artists React to Ryan vs Dorkman... you just hit such a heavy nostalgia button for me. holy crap. I had that video saved to my freakin iPOD.
I just recently saw Venom and I noticed two things. 1. That the cgi in opening scene of the space ship looks odd and I can't figure out why and 2. Venom's texture looks so squishy and I have no clue how the vfx artists created that effect. It would be awesome for VFX artists reacts to cover these scenes!
Joel Aron was the lighting and FX supervisor for Star Wars the Clone Wars since Season 3 Episode 12, Nightsisters. He was behind the Dark Saber in season 2, the Mandalore Plot.
I have several Manley lightsabers and the skills to use them.
I didn't expect you to be into VFX, with the amount you know about space I figured you wouldn't have enough time for much else

0:43 At that moment, Niko became close to the dark side
I find it funny that I was only subbed to this until a minute ago and not corridor, I guess I appreciate the behind the scenes of movies as much as the movies themselves
Please react to the clone wars animations over the years 🙏 they've come a long way since 2007 and the Bad Batch looks amazing!
true bad batch and tcw s7 have the best tv show animation i have ever seen
In the words of a certain Sith Lord, “Dew it!”
I keep wishing they would re-render the old seasons and release in 4K.
Truely Remaster the series to today's standards.
Good idea for animators react!
@@mbogucki1 There's just one problem... they'd need to use motion-capture for the duels like they did with season 7.
Shoutout to your Pixelbook at 7:04! I use one for all my journalist work. Great machine.
"I only watched Star Wars once. I didn't think they were that good."
It's treason then.
I think you guys should look at the Lightsaber Choreography Competition for either VFX Artists React or Stuntmen React at some point.
If you haven't already done it, could you review the scene in Spaceballs where they watch their own movie.
It's very cool to see the other Corridor Crew members having a shot at the videos!
I'm 22 but I feel 42 hearing Josh's opinions on Star Wars 😭
Tell me, what's The answer? What's the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything?
This literally couldn't have been a better video for Bespoke Post to sponsor
The sponsored segment was 10/10 lol. Just hilarious
Bro this video with the editing was funny as hell c:
Hearing you guys swearing makes you seem so much more human than the extremely family friendly sounding SFX reaction vids, I like it
Best channel and content on UA-cam, you guys are awesome, thanks for the hard work!
Josh: I didn't think they were that great, honestly
The Fandom: *_HERESY_*
Thank-you for not having the cringy business manager or whoever he is do the sponsor. First time ever I've watch the whole sponsor slot and actually clicked the link.
Oh man I was all excited I thought you guys were gonna compete to see if they could make a lightsaber look as good as it does in the sequel trilogy haha
music at 2:40 is brew by jobii
Those soap guys just started doing Star wars commercials!!!
Did they know when they started working on this?
It's really interesting how the crew channel has been doing way better than the main one
0:38 Josh has been branded a Heretic, and will be hunted down by the Inquisition.
Why is this one of my favorite videos you guys have made. 😂
Call me crazy, but the prequel lightsabers look the best in my opinion. That’s just what lightsabers look like to me
Niko was so done with Sam and his efforts to push the lightsaber down.😂😂. I love these guy's.
P.s
I know they had a blast with that food, and that amazing wire saw is a must have. Loved today's sponsor.
I have a question. In all of the Star Wars lore, has there ever been a Jedi or Sith lord that has created a lightsaber solely from force energy? Like if a Sith lord can shoot lightning out of they're hands, why not be able to focus it into an actual force energy blade or something? Could that be a thing? Should that be a thing?
I believe that was partially the case in the old EU. There were force-imbued weapons, but they took a ton of concentration to do so.
@@itsasquid there were, but those were actual weapons like swords or spears that were imbued with force energy. So not exactly what Bigtex was talking about.
Could it? Not really. If anything, the use of Force powers to manipulate lightning is considered a dark-sider technique, and also expends an enormous amount of physical willpower to achieve. Unless you're effectively immortal (which no one in Star Wars is), you couldn't create such a lightsaber.
HOWEVER
There are lightsabers in Legends that were designed to be activated with ONLY the Force. Unlike the grip panel used on other lightsabers, which included an effective kill switch to turn the saber off if one was disarmed or had it knocked out of one's hand, there are also Force-users who created an internal connection matrix that could only be activated if the made the connection through a tiny Force-push within the lightsaber mechanism as a whole.
*In a book there was a Lightsaber that wasn't actually like the ones we all know with technology it was just a kyber crystal strapped to a stick and the Jedi needed to use The Force to make it work, I think it's supposed to be the oldest Lightsaber in canon right now.*
Okay here's an actual, non-speculative answer. Yes, in the old EU, in a Darkhorse published comic series called "Dawn of the Jedi." It took place before even the Old Republic and before the Jedi when the Rakatan Infinite Empire controlled everything. There was a group called "Force Hounds" that were similar to Jedi except the were essentially slaves for the Rakatan. They used Forcesabers, which was just a handle that could channel dark side energy into a blade. The blades could be a variety of colors like traditional lightsabers, but because of it's nature, using one brought the user closer to the dark every time.
I heard "In order to have peace, you must have vore." and was very concerned for a second until my brain caught up...
Can we get a "I was arrested at Disneyland" shirt? 🤣❤️
7:38 - For real these commercials have been everywhere. Hilarious little bit!
About the camo patern lightsaber
It would've been cooler if you designed a procedural camo texture with 3d noise in blender or something else
Then render the blade as volumetrics using it
I love that you used the coast line of Tel aviv for the motion blur demonstration=]
"Fringe Star Wars Canon" across The Mandalorian backdrop was my favorite small detail of this video.
Seeing the clip from Ryan vs. Dorkman was a blast to the past
Grew up watching Star Wars, but as an adult, I've gotten more into Trek. I'd love to see you do the same video on the transporter cg from the different Star Trek series.
In case somebody is wondering what that thing was at 11:38 they are called "pocket operators". Really fun machines.
you made my day lol
0:44 that's the "you're one mistake away from being fired" look. How dare he disrespect Star Wars like that.
I watched one of the early VHS copies from a rental store as a kid in the 90s and I remember that pale white lightsaber so clearly. The early less edited versions were so rough but in a charming way. Like watching Krull more for the nostalgia than the actual movie.
Sam: We need more time for the Dungeon And Dragons Video. What can we put on the corridor channel in the meantime?
Niko: Let's makes a weird lightsabers video.
😂 BTW love you guys ❤️
You guy's really inspire me so thank you guy's
Day 12 of asking Corridor Crew: Review the CG animation in the “Star Wars The Clone Wars” tv series across all seven seasons plus the spin off series “Star Wars The Bad Batch”
We need them to react to that! The animation has come a long way since 2007.
Hell yeah !! This comment needs way more likes.
I was moved to see that motion blur clip on 4:29 is a place in Tel Aviv, Israel! Shalom and peace to all!
I have the original Star Wars on VHS and the other thing they did was take out a bunch of scenes. In the scene where Hon and Leia are arguing in the Snow Hallway on Hoth, Leia says she would rather kiss a Wookie then Hon. When Hon walks away off screen he yells "You could use a good kiss." In modern versions that is not said.
You mean Han? :D
You mean Ron? :D
PLEASE VFX Artists React to Ryan vs Dorkman... you just hit such a heavy nostalgia button for me. holy crap. I had that video saved to my freakin iPOD.
"I only watched Star Wars once. I didn't think they were that good."
Everyone's allowed to their opinion but also HOW DARE YOU
Loving the sponsored segments not just being Jake any more. It really adds something!
I actually relate to Josh a lot, I have watched almost every star wars movie, but I never really liked them...idk, just my opinion
I just recently saw Venom and I noticed two things. 1. That the cgi in opening scene of the space ship looks odd and I can't figure out why and 2. Venom's texture looks so squishy and I have no clue how the vfx artists created that effect. It would be awesome for VFX artists reacts to cover these scenes!
"I only watched Star Wars once. I didn't think they were that good."
A visual effects guy with no imagination... :/
FINALLY😂 I told Wren you guys should do this at last years RaceForTheRail and it’s finally here👏🏼
VFX Artists: "A glow has to be a bright color."
Darksaber: "I guess I'm a joke to these guys." 😁
