    As a viewer, the lack of podcasts and vlogs has made it difficult to be a 'fan'. Not because your work isn't awesome, but the Reaction videos feels like a very surface-level corridor aimed at the general public (which is totally cool for what it is). The thing that drew me to Corridor when I was a young lad 10+ years ago and inspired me to start a media company (we're up to 4 full-time employees!) was the genuine and unscripted vlogs of a bunch of bros making fun films and overcoming obstacles in the moment. It was partially about the cool VFX and wild short films, but it was mostly comradery that differentiated it from "Hollywood Sets".
    I know things change but I miss the spirit of Corridor/BrandonJLA vlogs. Making Of: Series, whatever the fuck "Pbtfbthbpbpthbp" was, Swinging an Axe into the wall, and especially Clint not knowing how to file taxes. Maybe those aren't viable anymore and we understand, but losing the podcast was the final relic of the Dobey Jank charm imo.
    Big fan of Tiny Guns 3, Offensive bowling, and Son of Dungeon Series. Without these big series, there are no vlogs.
    - Tristan of Triflix (Still a big fan)

      @Triflixfilms 5 місяців тому +1

      Amendments as I get farther in the podcast:
      - Ting Guns 3 and it's corresponding BTS were amazing and very much in the spirit of the old vlogs imo.
      - I was unaware of Sam's breakdown videos and the shenanigans that went into making them, it would be a good YT push to the website if more people knew.
      - I still search for "Corridor Digital" on UA-cam when I want to find that channel
      - I don't think people mind if the podcast is about things that you find interesting (onewheels)

    Famished and starved, I lay on the cold stone floor of the dark and desolate dungeon with only the sound of dripping stones and the howl of winds outside the thick brick wall. - Heavy footsteps reign down the steps to just right outside the dungeon door before a large silhouette fiugure busts the heavy wooden door as if it were straw, then a man steps foward seemingly wearing a large bear as a fur pelt, its Jake Watson! With a steep and bellowing voice he utters "Corridor Podcast is back" and threw a burlap sack of burnt bread ends to sasiate my hunger, alas all is restored.

    38:50 I think with Son of a Dungeon, I would definitely be willing to watch a lower production value version. I think your personalities and edited storytelling matters more to me. I think just a Livestream wouldn't have the flow that I enjoy. But losing the VFX would be ok.

    To answer the question about Son of a Dungeon, I do agree that it’s the special effects that makes it stand out, but I do think it could be scaled back.
    As a person that really enjoys the miniature battles of say Dimension 20, if you were able to use your skills to have cool transitions etc or work with HeroForge digital models etc to just add an extra level that no one else can.

      ​@@rodom303Likely not enough revenue from it that translates to excess budget and they likely see it as part of their main revenue stream as they diversified from yt.
      The challenge is that they are in a niche content space unlike LTT that's more broad with larger audience and people with more income but corridor still has a dev team to pay / contract.

    MoveAI has a markerless motion capture solution that can be used in real time. Yall have a big green screen studio. You could run an UNREAL env in real time with a series of vfx and particle things pre set up and just act it out live as your characters are on screen doing the thing in the game.

    I originally subbed for Sun of a Dungeon - then, I found Corridor Cast, which introduced me to the awesomeness of Corridor and the people there. I had gone back and watched so much of the older blogs and 'casts, and really missed them when they stopped getting updated here.
    SOAD Season 3 with some lower effort visuals would be awesome! It's really the players, characters, and story telling that I go back and watch Season 1 and 2 for. I also appreciate the effects and table setup, they add a lot to the presentation, but if creating all of that is breaking the studio, find a middle ground of effort/quality and try that out.

    Here’s an idea for the dnd show: Let the community of artists around the channel animate certain key shots of the shows. No style guides.
    You shoot the show, you edit it, you spot the time slices that would be awesome to show something more, and then give each shot to people who already said they wanted to participate.
    The end result would feel like video game shortcuts, where at the end of a grind, a cool animation comes and gives your a carrot at the end of the road.
    As a viewer it would be awesome to see how different artists give shape to different steps of the journey.
    I’m thinking 5-15 second reel that replace the video while the voices stays constant. This format could be an incredible opportunity for aspiring story tellers to show their craft, without being too daunting and or time consuming. Also, from a production perspective, if an artist doesn’t follow through, you can always stay with the status quo.
    Not that you need to hear this, but for completeness, you should give full visible & clickable credits to their social presence.
    A micro Life Death Robot if you will.
    Nitty gritty with the creators is great content for the paywalls for the die hard fans.

    One thing that the internet gives that is very weird to feel, is that I've been here since I was a kid in school. Now I have grey hairs, just like you all... But the thing I always held on very high regard and that always kept me here, was that I saw growth while growing. You always evolved and used your steps to teach others. And your transparency in this episode is a sign that you have good hearts and want to do the right thing. Keep going.
    I never gave you a single dime besides my time, and that feels unfair due to the amount you teach, for that I'm sorry but not super wealthy out here. Still, I hope you take gratitude as coin and that your business thrives going forward 🫡

    Would you guys ever think about doing something like Clints render challenge but as a short film competition? Provide some random elements you have to include, use it as a chance for the audience to interact and be part of the channel. I think one of the best parts of the offensive bowling series or other "watch at the end content" is not necessarily the content you make, its how you guys react to it and how happy it makes you. Being a short film contest, we get to be part of the community and you guys dont have to take time away to make content to react to as a group. You could even short list it and then producer points vote for the best one.
    Anyway, just an idea :)

    Could do a voting system on your website for guest for your podcast or topics to talk about on the podcast. Don’t need a lot of effort for that 😊

    The next evolution of Son of a Dungeon is VR. All the players have a vision pro headset, and move around in the Unreal Engine dungeons in realtime, wearing full VR models. Sam and the minion interns he recruits will fly invisibly around getting the best camera shots, and play the actual NPCs.
    The tech you develop for it, the plugins, or even just the research gathered, all of that you could probably sell to some company. Virtual tabletops is an industry, but VR RPGs is the next level.
