"a german shepherd of a human being" is really accurate for Jake
I'm now imagining a german shepherd tackling people and holding an ad for Square Space in their face. Complete with doggy grin and tail wagging.
@@digisenshi "Today's sponsor is Skillshare, hooman!"
Is it only me who can see that somehow jake now resembles a german shepherd if it was human?
Lol
Hahaha
I"ll be honest, watching Corridor Digital actually made me wanted to learn about video editing. Thank you Sam and Niko and everyone in the crew.
This is corridor crew :D
@@marcirajkai8395 I agreed , but at the time the Channel was called "Corridor Digital". That's why I said "and everyone in the crew" in the end :) .

@@koblarb actually just saying this one was the sam and niko channel, corridor is still up.
thanks? for telling me?
"We filled this barrel with coins"
*Like 7 coins*
"It's a big barrel"
@Hai Voai What does that video have to do with anything?
lol that green field village coin is from a place not to far from where i live in detroit. its like a museum type place to see the accomplishments on the industrial revolution and henry ford
Missed chance to sneak in a VFX shot
I am 16 years old. Don’t be decieved, I’ll tell you guys a secret. I’m not actually Kermit the Frog. But when I was a kid I watched all of these videos because of my brother, he got me really into youtube back in 2008, and I’ve been a huge fan ever since. Freddiew, CorridorDigital, and even Video Game Highschool. In that time, I was the biggest fan of Corridor and I always will be. My mother is a photographer and video editor, so seeing how this stuff is done and seeing people do it so well just makes me smile. I love all of you guys and your work. Since I was about 7 I have been watching you guys, and your content never disappoints.
Thank you guys, and keep up the amazing work.

"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
Easy. I've been a fan back when dubstep guns was brand new. The content you all create within the channel, second channel, and even NODE has been the highest quality I've seen from youtube and the way you guys interact and connect with the audience makes me feel like I'm part of the team in a way. To see everyone go on a nostalgia trip with the studios puts me through one as well. Love you guys and all you do. Keep on being awesome!
Same bro. I lost it when dubstep guns came out. Oh how time flies.
Dubstep guns blew me away
couldn’t have said it better myself
Exactly
Bordom, plain & simple.
I thought Jake was like 5 years older then everyone else for some reason

Same

Man who didnt watch their videos as a kid...
I am new ._.
Same ! I made my UA-cam account to subscribe to freddieW
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
It has been said multiple times, but I watch you guys because you really feel like a family of friends. You guys are legitimately having fun with each other and it seems like you mostly have a lot of fun together. How can you not watch that? It feels like a reality show at times, but a more genuine one. You guys are all hilarious and really mesh with each other well. You're all passionate with what you do. It has been sad to see some of you leave, but that is life. I hope these channels continue, they are so great
Studio 3 will always be the “Minecraft LAN Party” room to me lol

"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
You're a fun bunch of guys. When I've had a tough day your videos always manage to bring a smile to my face. What whacky idea will you have next? The work you guys produce is top notch and inspires me to create. Knowing your history inspires me even more. I love Blender. I love VFX. Corridor produces great pixels and waveforms. But at the end of the day I come back because of who you guys are, and not what you produce.

"Why do you watch Corridor?"
Me:
Have you seen your content?
"Why do you watch?"
Well, personally I started in the FreddieW era, actually following freddiew and not you. I loved the VFX, but then kinda forgot about it for a couple of years
A couple of years ago, I wanted to see what freddieW was up to, and I didn't really like his new content, such as VGHS, but then I remembered you guys existed, and you kept on doing cool VFX on UA-cam, so I started following you again, only for the VFX videos.
Part of the spark that got me into what I do everyday and love so much, which is VR development, was influenced by Node videos, in which I found about Brandon and the VR games he was making at Stress Level Zero, which is also such a memorable phrase from back in the 2010s with FreddieW videos
So up to that point, my main interest was the VFX videos and of course SLZ, AND THEN You started with the deep fakes, the VFX Artist React, and other very viral videos that made me actually look past the VFX and into the daily life at Corridor and also the very interesting people that work and create amazing things there. You guys are awesome. PD: if somebody reads this, tell Wren he's gotta try my VR game, I know he loves Beat Saber!
I think those are the main points that make me say I really love Corridor, but of course your work still is amazing and keeps on getting better.
You guys are like cool teachers, even though I don't apply myself all the cool VFX and 3D things I learn, you get me into learning and growing as a professional
Thank you for these 10 years! and here's to another 10!
I wanted to make a comment but you summarized what I wanted to say : came mainly for Rocket Jump, didn't like new content like VGHS, stayed for Corridor Digital and followed the Sam & Niko channel to know how it works behind the scenes and watch cool R&D experiences from passionate, friendly and talented people :)
thats alotta letters
Exactly the same story!🔥🔥
I watched vghs I couple years ago than found this channel and was like is that the same Freddie
"Why do you care what we do here."
To be honest, I don't. But 10 years ago I got sucked in and I've been trying to find my way out ever since. For some reason though I can't seem to find the exit.
Guess I'll watch another video.
j/k. Love you guys.
"Jake is the German Shepherd of Human beings" Why does that seem so accurate
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
I went the boring route and found your channel through the VFX Artists React. It was really interesting to hear and then found you had another VFX channel. You do awesome work and I hope you you gain even more attention in the future!
Same.
THEY'RE USING ROB SCALLON'S MUSIC OMG IM FREAKING OUT SO MUCH
Rain
Yo lol i was thinking the same
dude i recognized summer imidiatly
I thought that was rain in the beginning of the video
Ikr i love rob scallon
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
Saw "MINECRAFT: The Last Minecart" 9 years ago, and have kept tabs ever since. When I found out about the Sam & Niko channel, I started watching all the vlogs and became hooked.
I actually just realized that within those 9 years is acting in my first highschool play, and having a principal role on a Netflix show. Now, I'm mostly sustaining myself off of acting, and I've got you guys to thank for making such wildly inspiring content. Me and a couple friends were even set to shoot our own webseries called Degen City, but then the pandemic happened. Everyone in our crew looks up to you guys, though! So if any of y'all end up reading this, thank you so much for all your hard work. It's been cool growing up along side y'all.
May Dobe have mercy,
Nicco
yes~ I remember watching that same vid too! all those years ago.
@@violetnhz ah, simpler times
What Netflix show, and what character?
@@no.1valkmainAL_oce The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, but I can't say anything else eheheh
exact same for me
Robb Scallon’s Rain at the beginning was a nice touch, good taste in music.
Heck yea
Only reason I pulled the video up on my phone to comment while watching on my TV lol
Was just going to comment about this
Yesua-cam.com/video/iSDasOegDy0/v-deo.html
You took the words out of my mouth
Rain by Rob Scallon playing in the background is getting me in my feels
1:10 is that rain by rob scallon playing in the background? thats's like my favorite song!!!
Dude I was so excited when I heard it!
Definitely is.
It is
i heard the delay and i got hype
Bruh I was like you think I don't recognize this song
I immediately noticed Rob Scallon's "rain", I love that song 😃
Same
Same
I was so surprised to hear it
Immediately recognizable.
Me too
I starting watching when the corridor channel had the TETHER monster for the profile picture
Really wish they did something more with that universe. Was ripe for more videos.
I started watching when it was Sam&Niko studios, (no jk I don't wanna lie)
Same dude! Good days man.
That’s the first video I saw, I was like twelve and didn’t understand it but it was so fucking cool dude

"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
Been watching you for almost a decade. I end up watching corridor crew videos more than anything. Mostly I enjoy watching the moments of passion you all show for your art and friends
same here. I am a musician not even a vfx person or anything but they are always like a magic source of motavation and inspiration to just do things.
10 years ago when I was in high school I saw one of your early videos. Hell it amazed me. I immediately torrented After Effects and started teaching myself based off your, FreddieW's, Videocopilot's, etc videos. Now I work full time as a Visual Effects Coordinator / VFX artist for feature films. Would have had a very different life if it wasn't for you guys, you have all my gratitude for opening up this world to me
to answer Niko's question of why:
I've been following you guys for about 7 or 8 years. I found you through Freddie's channel, which I also followed pretty closely. You guys had some of the coolest effects, ideas, stories, and community that I had ever seen and it's only gotten better in every way. It's crazy to see you guys going through life and I think to myself "man, they are so cool, they have so much fun, I envy them so much", and then you turn the corner on a new part of life and I think "man, they are just like me..."
It's been a huge influence in my life, from the way I get inspired, to the way I get through tough times, to the fun things I can share with others. You guys aren't just artists to me. You're role models. I don't love everything you guys have made or do, but I love the reasons and the way you do everything. The journey has been so much fun and there are so many ways that you guys have either influenced or mirrored my own life that I don't really know how to put it into words. I continue to watch you guys because you inspire me, you comfort me, you educate me, you entertain me, and most importantly, you make me think. I love to see you guys grow and succeed, and even if I have not contributed to that in a large way, I like to think that my views, likes, and the occasional comment have somehow helped or made an impact. Even if it's not true, you guys give it the opportunity to matter, and that's more than you might realize.
I love you guys the same way I love my best friends, even if we've never actually met. One day I might get up the courage and set aside the resources to come say hi and introduce myself, but until then, I'll just keep on enjoying your content...
Kind of the same pattern for me. I found Freddie's shorts a few years ago, which were awesome, then UA-cam started recommending Corridor shorts, and here I am now. I also like other short films but it's hard to find them on UA-cam, there aren't really a lot of channels.
I just wanted to see the how they've evolved the effect of Sam's thinning hair! The baldness pattern looks so natural these days that it's astonishing!
“Rain” by Rob Scallon playing in the background starting around the 1:05 mark
AceusMusic dude I lost my shit when I heard that! So awesome!
CGI nerds are usually metalheads too, because metal, especially tech metal, is the best, most complex genre out there. And nerds love that shit. Myself included.
heyimgoingtoplaysomegames Yeah I do know that lol since Sam has his tech metal project. I always do love hearing youtubers rep other UA-camrs music or projects. Especially Rob because he really deserves it!
Bro I was freaking out!
Oh yes, some good shit
Suddenly, Rob Scallon takes place in the background
Yeah I noticed that and was super confused for a second.
No one: Wow crazy that you guys have been around for long!
Everyone: OMG THEY'RE PLAYING ROB SCALLON AAAARHJEHAJA
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
I started watching not so long ago, when I found about 'vfx artists react' videos and 'vfx artist reveals' videos. And got me wondered what kinds of work you're doing and then I started watching your past videos on your other channel. After watching, I found out that you make films about whatever you think would be entertaining, with great script, hilarious jokes, and I can feel that you enjoy making your films. Knowing that you already doing it for 10 years and still it with so much passion and having fun in the process inspires me to do what I love and gives me motivation to do so. Keep up the good work guys and we will always support you.
All the way from Philippines.
John Edwards yes
same
Because you are gay and Wren is gayer and Clinton is just flamboyant I Love you guys. Keep up the Amazing work.
"Jake is a german shepherd of a human being"
No way you guys got "rain" as your background music...
It's a great song
Wholesome
I was playing it on guitar and then it started started playing in the vid
I got hyped
Still waiting for the collab
“Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?”
I have been watching from the beginning i was like 10 back then and you guys were a big inspiration and a great learning tool to see what i wanted to become in the future, i guess i still see all your videos cause it kinda feels like family, feels like im home, just chilling with people that love the same things i do and i clicked on the video cause it shows a bit of nostalgia from when i was a kid and was super impressed by your videos and now im impressed by how far you guys have come. thank you guys for the videos i will keep watching.
I got extreme nostalgia and that same homey comfort feeling. Truly, thank you for being great guys all these years.
Oh my, something's inside my eyes D': I remember those times, good old days.
Spot on!
I see a lot of these comments like “I’ve been here since the beginning” and while I wish I could say I’ve been supporting you guys for these 10 years, but I’ve only started watching a couple of days ago, but I am absolutely hooked on this channel. You guys are so funny, so entertaining, and seem like such genuine people who really have a passion for what they’re doing that I can’t help but keep watching, and while I might not have been here for the 10 years leading up to this point, you can definitely count me in for the next 10 years. I can’t wait to see what you guys do next!
This was a very refreshing comment. I had genuinely forgotten how long I’ve been watching this Hunter St group. It is one of the very few that I started with and I will never unsubscribe, even at 360 subscriptions.
nice birb
pls dont eat me birb
Welcome to the community. You have a lot of great videos to watch. Everything on either corridor digital or corridor crew is great content.
Nick Z thanks! I feel welcomed
love the Rob Scallon - Rain, been a fan of his for quite a while.
Ginger_bit idk what that has to do with this
@@dedrxbbit7549 its the music in the video
@@dedrxbbit7549 yeah man, i just like the song, and like how they included it in the early parts of the video.
Sorry didn’t know. I wasn’t paying attention. I love the song too btw
Joakim Boström if you’re offering, nope. I’m married with two kids. Thanks tho. I appreciate the offer
The question "Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?" gave me chills.. because It made me realize that I've been watching you guys for about 8 years now and its unreal how fast time goes. You guys have always just been such an amazing group of people that have always worked hard to chase your dreams... It almost feels like over the years, I grew up with you guys as a routine...
Stay amazing you guys...
I wonder how Carmichael is doing. He was the nicest guy...
check out his channel then? (fables of refuge)

Matty Key omg I had no idea! Thanks!
You can tell how much their content has improved in quality. Congrats to The Corridor Crew, they deserve all the notoriety and success for their hard work.
Woah you also watch
"Why do you watch?" Well, Wren posted a "fire hands" tutorial that I recreated in my video reel which literally got me my first job in video production, my boss hired me specifically because I could do that effect. And I saw how you guys continued to prove time and time again that you CAN continue to innovate in your work, you CAN continue to learn new skills, you CAN create something meaningful and make a career out of it, you CAN love the people you work with, you CAN create and grow a successful business with your friend, you CAN stay friends with people for decades, you CAN have fun working hard on something. Ya'll have been inspiring and genuine from the get go, and it's helped inspire me to work jobs I never thought I could do. I've been a TV broadcast director for a couple years now and it's largely because ya'll show that we CAN do what we think we can't.
Also, Clint is pretty god damn funny.
"Why did you guys listen to our story"
When I see you guys make and create your videos its exactly what I want to do and seeing you guys actually do it is both inspiring and motivational to get better in film and art. Keep it up 10 years is only the beginning, I'm sure this will be bigger then you guys imagined.
damn, i still remember when smosh was at its prime and rwj was the epitome of youtube comedy
Prime youtube
The bad old days of UA-cam :P
I never thought rwj was funny
@@Altiveda No he wasn't. He was an OK host showcasing other peoples things, but never had any good jokes. I remember he tried to create a comedy show and it bomb so fucking hard!
@@sdzyde7482 They where one of the good channels back then actually
Shout out to Rob Scallon's "Rain" playing in the background of the beginning lol
"Why do you care what we do here?"
You're intelligent, grounded, young guys with unique - and kinda geeky - creative skills. That sums it up.
I'm 19, been watching since a time I didn't properly know how to use the internet to get to "that website with the videos" (I just knew I liked Mario and Pokémon). We don't have many actual male role models these days - celebrities don't give insight into experiences, and more and more, guys being guys is ostracised anyway - and each member of the crew is a man to look up to in a way.
Niko's calm and wisdom. Sam's straight-forwardness. Jake's maturity. Wren's excitement and engineering background. Clint's dedication and artistry. (That is of course not mentioning Nick and Cmikes etc.) You provide grounding for young viewers. That's why we keep watching.
haha 69th like
Is anyone gonna talk about the fact they used Rob Scallon's song "Rain" for the video???
"Why do you come to see corridor vids?"
Because it fells like a real life Friends show. And it is actually funny and emotional and stuff. Because it is trully interesting and it has deversity and friendship. And the funny part is content as well. You guys made fun part of your work. Thats why I watch it. It is a mix of hard work and having fun in the process. This is rare
They used “rain” by Rob Scallon in this!
Just about to comment that lol
@@coletonvieregge2010 Already did lol
I was unprepared to hear it.
“Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?”
Because of Dubsep guns.
Dubstep. Freaking. Guns.
Same here
that was classic :)
"Why do you watch?"
As a kid, I thought your videos were just awesome to watch and that they were hilarious, and they still are, but as I got older I stayed because I admired the awesome friendship you all seem to have and what you accomplished together. There is a sense of real friendship and that I felt like I got to be a part of through the years and has left me with a lot of nostalgia. You guys were a part of my childhood. And I thank you for everything y'all have done.

One of my major take home messages of this: if you’re perusing dreams, it’ll take time and you’ll start small. But you’ll get there!
Survivorship bias :/
Dear Corridor,
I started watching you guys because I saw a group of guys that I could relate to. I've always wanted to get into the film industry, and I'm currently about to go to college for just that. I knew that VFX was something I was gonna have to learn if I wanted to get anywhere with the movies I wanted to make, so I started looking up VFX tutorials. As I was scrolling down the videos, I saw an old one that I had seen a long time ago called "The Glitch." I re-watched the video and decided to dig deeper to see what else you guys did. Fast forward a week later and I subscribed to all of your channels and I became hopelessly hooked on you guys. VFX artists react quickly became my favorite series because it taught me so much about the effects that I wanted to be able to do for the stuff I was trying to create. I think the most amazing thing was the fact that I found myself relating to you guys on a personal level, which was a completely unexpected turn of events. Your laughter became my laughter, your sadness became my sadness, and your moments became my moments. I really felt like I was part of a crew that, in reality, I had never even met before. You're a cool group of guys, and if this college thing pans out, I hope to work with you in the future! Good luck moving Niko!
With much love,
Jason Herring
So, Niko is just going to be living in a different location? He's still staying with the crew, right?
gunars12345 He is staying! I believe there’s a video earlier this year that briefly explained Niko moving out but still staying
@@smeech5177 thanks for the reassurance! I was worried for a bit there
Niko is a gem
@@smeech5177 but he wont be in their videos in person?
They talk about it on the podcast! He’s just moving out, now it’s a fully functional, big ass studio.
Hey Niko, (and the rest of coridor)
I watch these videos because it feels like I'm watching my friends work hard and create incredible art. Its satisfying, relaxing, and I'm sure has changed millions of lives for the better. One of my irl friends was met through a shared love of corridor videos, as we both started doing visual effects in high school, about 8 years ago now.
Thanks for the entertainment! Love you too :P
"10:58"
As an OCD patient.. I was struggling with a lot of things.. My hands are burned from the sanitizer that I use every minute... I found you guys recently, and I can't express my feeling into words, but you guys helped me a lot.. you can't even know how much you helped me. I watch your videos to avoid the things that I do unconsciously.. and it is kinda works! I've been watching your videos for a month, and I can't even count the number of videos that I watch in a day!.. sam, Niko, Jake, Wren, Clint, Nick, and the other crew.. thank you guys.
"Why do yah watch, why do you keep coming back"
Honestly. Binged all of your VFX Artists react videos, thought they were pretty funny, then one of your archery videos popped up on my suggested tab, started watching it and have been watching ever since. Only been subscribed for a year or two but you guys honestly have made me want to explore special affects and film making more.
“Why did you listen to us tell the story of corridor?” I remember enjoying the portal gun video of Frediew and wondering about the special effects being it, I remember the begin the scenes of clock blockers. You guys have been making the best content of UA-cam for so much time, I just enjoy the effort and everything you do. Also you look like really good friends between yourselves so is nice to hear about your adventures. Hopefully in ten years you guys keep doing the content, so will keep watching until the end. So thank you guys, you all rock!
Me: wait that's rain by Rob scallon
Thats why it sounded so familiar
I was just about to say that - ive been learning it on guitar and I was like “waaaaait”
Oh yeah... It's all coming together now...
Lol I was thinking the exact same thing I had to pause the video and check the description to confirm
Variant I KNOW RIGHT
"Why do you watch?"
Everone: Deep detailed reason and deeply seeded problem that they struggle with
Me(5 yr old brain): Video go Wrender
But actually, I watch Corridor Crew to gain knowledge of behind the scenes of vfx and the techniques used to make them, and how they could be fixed. Also Wren, he's very cool and teaches interesting things such as making drones and how ludicrous exponential growth can be, especially with something like a virus (which shall not be named).
I watch Corridor digital to be entertained, from "Tiny Guns", to "Tacticool reloads", to "There's an alien on your head!". It's fun watching the videos themselves as well as the improvement of the team behind them.
ua-cam.com/video/iSDasOegDy0U/v-deo.html
You thought it was Logan but it was me dio
I just began watching corridor recently because of COVID, I found the time to explore UA-cam and as a musician, seeing fellow artists who have such a passion for a different craft is so inspiring. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication to your art!
Rain by Rob Scallon, good taste of background music.
I’ve been watching this crew since the OG OG days, like FreddieW’s Roller Coaster Day 2010 or the actual Rocket Jump video 😂 always such high quality stuff, always hilarious, entertaining videos, you guys are STUDS. Thanks for the incredible content over the years!
Nate Wilde good times!
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
Simple, you guys just make me happy whenever I watch your videos.
Agreed
Just want to say thanks for all your amazing videos. I'm a fulltime freelance graphic designer, and I've learned a ton about how to make my work more real by watching your videos. You inspire me to keep doing what I'm doing as a freelance artist. Work hard, have fun, and work harder. Thanks Corridor Crew.
Niko: I love you
Sam: That's a big commitment Niko
Me: I love you guys too
8:55 “just like we shot peter... it was the same thing”
That subsequent eyebrow movement worried me. 😂
Josiah Smith my theory is Niko 42
Agent К видео by now the whole crew are probably clones of themselves, and the real ones are safe at home.
I'm here coz yall are talented and lacking in flexing egos...
Ash White well said mate
I actually learned about Corridor Crew before Corridor's main channel because of "VFX Artists React". When I watched the first episode right after it came out, I started to watch your videos from time to time. I'm always happy to watch Wren and his passion to everything he does. The friendship that your whole team has is incredible. A lot of laughs in the studio. That's something I enjoy and come back for.
Was that rob scallon’s “rain” that I heard in the background. Good taste in music 👌
im so glad it wasnt just me. that song is stuck in my head when tyhey tried to make the reverb practically with two other guitarists
Dang I felt seriously called out when they referred to me as an “OG fan” for watching freddiew videos in the third grade. Crazy. I wish you guys the best and I plan to watch as much as your content as I can. Hot dog.
I used to spend afternoons watching “Sam and Niko” vids. Now I tune in for the Corridor Crew
"Why did you listen to us tell the story of Corridor?"
I've been watching Corridor & FreddieW videos for almost as long as they've been on UA-cam. I have ALWAYS wanted to be a part of creating the kind of content y'all do, but I never actually believed that I had the equipment or talent to do it though. You guys & RocketJump continuously inspire me by showing it only takes a small group of dedicated people to make something big & professional. You're making quality content in a studio with a handful of guys that usually takes teams in corporations to do the same. I learn & grown as a videographer, editor, & producer all the time from watching your videos. Seeing your team, content, & brand gives me something to strive for & try to reach as I learn more.
Sam: "We can always move back home at the end of the day, we havent burned those bridges yet."
Me: "Yet?"
Eventually you just get too old to move home with mama and papa
“Why do you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?”
I’ve been watching since Brandon and Freddie credited you for helping out with their Mario Kart IRL video. You’re talented, creative, silly. You’re all clearly really into what you’re doing, and it’s fun seeing you speak of your craft, even when I have no intention of pursuing it myself. You let yourselves nerd out hard, with video games, engineering, movie making. And you’re just charming. It really does feel like I’ve known you all for a long time, and I’m very invested, with my time and my emotions. I’m so happy to see you all continuing to flourish. Thanks.
isnt it strange to feel nostalgia for all of these places/times that you didn't really experience? lol, I'm getting emotional because I've been watching for almost a decade now and it's just such an overwhelming feeling to look back on it all
Can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that every single one of these guys lives was allowed to get to where it is all because Steve the landlord kept his rent low.... I love Steve.
Agreed!! people like Steve do not get the appreciation they deserve.
I first watched Corridor for the really unique and fun-to-watch videos, but I stuck around because you guys seem like such genuine and good people.
Why did I listen to you to tell a story of Corridor?
I'm following you since the Frozen Crossing and I've gradually watched every single video you posted online. Heck you even cooked a dinner for me during the DayZ fan meeting in 2014! You have passed so much knowledge and inspiration to me and recently I started my own filmmaking/motion graphics business. I'm 23 tomorrow and you kinda raised me if I think about it. I feel like you're my friends even though you don't know me. I've spent so much time with you by watching all of these behind the scenes, tutorials and tons of other kinds of videos. It's very weird and special relationship.
Sadly I've never had enough resources to support you on Patreon or buy your merch (shipping to Czech Republic isn't free either huh) but I think this is the day I should start paying back. The impact you had on me is immeasurable. Thank you for everything. Hopefully one day I'll have a chance to thank you in person. You truly deserve the best of everything. I feel really bad for the people in parallel universes that don't have Corridor Digital. Life is just better with you. Thank you again.

"Why do you care"
Honestly started off watching FreddieW videos all those years ago, which obviously lead me to you guys! This little circle of UA-cam was honestly the best thing to happen to UA-cam way back then and still is. I used to watch you guys after I would come home from school whenever you would have uploaded a video, and now I watch you guys whenever I come back from work if there's a video up. Thank you for all the good memories :)
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?”
Man like back in the day when I was in trade school a buddy I and had a dream to do stuff like you guys do. But like times get tougher, money gets tighter and then my buddy eventually became prone to seizures. Part of me wishes I didn't give up so easily. See you guys succeed makes it easier though.
I started watching the channel around 6-7 years ago when I myself became a CGI artist / Motion graphics animator. The content inspired me to keep learning and keep working on my skills etc.
I've since re-positioned myself in the industry and work as a Producer for a large advertising agency. I miss being 'on the tools' and every Corridor/Corridor Crew/Node video I watch makes me want to get back behind my computer and make something cool.
Corridor will always be one of my biggest inspiration because for me, you do exactly what everyone else dreams or thinks of doing. You make all the cool, ridiculous, awesome stuff that we all talk about making but never 'get round to' or 'find the time for'. You guys reflect my inner geek and a laugh along with every stupid joke, prank, nerf war the lot.
Congrats on 10 years! Keep doing what your doing and I'll always be here to watch :)
Thanks
i just realized they were playing rob scallon’s “rain”
"Why do you watch?" Your personalities; you guys are so fun and kind and genuine.
I got weirdly excited when i heard "rain" playing in the back
Rob scallon gang RISE UP
"Why did you listen to us tell a story about Corridor?"
I started watching you guys back when dubstep guns and the gravity gun were made. Its amazing to see the progress y'all have made since those videos. The amount of work put into each Corridor video keeps me coming back again and again.
You guys helped me get through a lot of trouble. I wish I could have been there since the beginning but I was there for a bout 6 years. I want you guys to know that in any decision you make you're community will support you because you have literally raised us. From the dorky skits with the little people having dance battles or the meme police one to the amazing ones like after dayz. We have learned so much from the stunt actors react, and the fx artists react. I used to have a dream of joining you guys in skits as a young kid, and I want to thank you for giving me that. Even during this time you are able to give us content. And I'm sure you will be able to fill new kids hearts with joy and entertainment. Alright I'm gonna stop talking now. But seriously, thank you so much. Love, The Community
"Why do you care what we do here?"
I loved the 2010 era of UA-cam VFX videos. I started with FreddieW but when Corridor Digital was formed after, I subscribed in a heartbeat. How can I resist more of the same content? Plus I thought it was very cool that you guys had a second channel that was giving out VFX tutorials at the time and even inspired a few of my friends in college to shoot random skits together for our own enjoyment. Ngl over the years I started to loose interest in the main channel as Freddie's channel started uploading less frequently. The bond between you guys during your studio 4 days was kept me interested in what everyone is doing and seeing where everything would go. When NODE came to be, I watched every single upload as it comes out. The same with Corridor's second channel when it started ramping up to become Corridor Crew. Seeing a glimpse of what goes behind the scenes imho was a lot more interesting than what goes on to the main channel at this point. Plus the uploads were a lot more frequent. Seeing the final product on the main channel feels like a very good bonus. In the past 2 years, I feel like the Corridor Crew had become even better and diverse. Now we're getting educational videos, VFX breakdowns, and random challenges on top of a behind the scenes of their main uploads all from a single channel.
"Why did you listen to us tell a story of Corridor?"
This crew, above anything else I've ever seen, has been my number one inspiration in filmmaking. From learning composition, lighting, how to shoot, how to edit, how to do VFX work. Hell, I didn't even really practice editing a bundle of footage into a cohesive story until the first time you guys did open applications for editors and I didn't start teaching myself After Effects until the second time you guys did because I felt I needed to step up my game and push further. Honestly though, just seeing a group of friends from the midwest carry each other to such great heights in a world that I too aspire to be part of is incredibly powerful to watch. I haven't been here since the beginning, but I've watched, enjoyed, and learned from every single video you guys have put onto the Corridor and Corridor Crew channels.
Thanks guys.
My early teens i watched you guys. Now that I think about it you guys inspired me to get into video editing.
Wound up working in IT and doing the occasional freelance video editing.
Huh, wonder where i'd be without you guys
Weirdly reminds me of what I was like 10 years ago. Good times hey.
What’s so funny is that I was showing some people this channel on discord two nights ago. And talking about how I found it and showing the first video that I watch years ago which was the Minecraft and some of the newer videos. Like rust, r rated movies, and rust. It’s fucking awesome looking back on these moments.
Like so many others, growing up in a small town, I didn't have resources to go to film school, have access to a lot of gear, and most importantly other humans who had similar passions. I was able to go to college but couldn't afford a school with an actual film department so I quickly learned that if I wanted a chance at a creative career, I would need education from somewhere else. Thanks to y'all and other amazing channels, I was able to have access to talented creatives who could help me progress to where I needed to go.
Really, thank you. I know you all were first and foremost following your passions and trying to pave a way for yourselves but the best thing about UA-cam is you brought a community of creators along with you. We were experiencing many of the same things you were going through. We were hitting similar roadblocks of not knowing if there was a future for us or how the hell we would carve a path for ourselves in this world. Being apart of this community helped us continue to push forward in a time when the industries we wanted to live and work in were changing under our feet. Thank you.
To the next 10 years.
Cheers.
I've watched this video multiple times, but only just realized y'all used music by Rob Scallon! I've been following him for years! Crazy!
"Why did you listen to tell a story of corridor"
It's because I personally have been a fan of your works. I think I started watching your videos back in middle of 2012 and was amazed by the effects and wanna learn a little bit of how to make a good effect and what's important to know about filmmaking. Love from Sweden and stay strong in times like this
"That ones from greenfield village, I have no idea what that is"
As a Michigander :(
same:)
Tbh I kinda smiled hard. Thinking that a little sliver of my childhood somehow made into all the way to their coin bucket in LA and has probably been there since Freddiew and CD were starting up 😌
Worst. Field Trip. Ever.
Samshu going back as an adult drunk for Fourth of July is fun tho😂
Oh boy I've been here a loooong time... Still remember when 'The last Minecart' came out. Here's to 10 more!
5 years ago I watched your Call of the Wild videos. Those videos got me into Node and subsequently Corridor as well as D&D. Now, 5 years later, I play D&D as often as I can and watch all of your videos. Some videos really do seem like big-budget things with a group of 30 people, but it’s a group of very talented friends.
I've been watching since The last Minecart and Graphic Violence, I liked them so much I would download them onto a little 1 gig thumb drive to watch them at school when ever I was bored. I'm a prop maker, set designer, and monster make-up enthusiast now and though I wouldn't say Corridor help make me that (I was already on that track by then) It was fun to see what I felt were kindred spirits and I always hoped that one day you would make a call out for physical prop makers like you do with digital film makers. I'm a struggling artist, quit my day job 4 or 5 years ago and been scraping by thanks to peoples kindness, after seeing videos of you behind the scenes talking about your journey and path to where you are, I would never give it up for the world. Its been a wonder to watch you grow in size, talent and maturity, I hope to continue to watch for another 10 years. Thank you so much for all the laughs, the tears, and awe inspiring moments.
I was waiting for the water bucket prank, that still is one of humanity's greatest achievements
"Why do you watch Corridor?"
I've been following you since a long time and still does it today because of the passion you show in your videos.
May it be on the Corridor or Corridor Crew channel, you're always passionate, you do your best to be insightful and entertaining.
To me, that's your brand, you communicate with your audience your passion.
Passion for VFX, Passion for making the impossible real, Passion to teach, etc ...
You always impressed me, and continue to do so.
I still remember the Far Cry video of 2012, I think that must have been the point where I went: DARN those guys are awesome, I want to see more. Never left :)
Thanks for all the time you spend on the channel, on youtube ! You're all awesome !
I discovered Corridor Digital 10 years ago, with the Shoot Your Friends serie. I remember actually messaging you with VFX questions I had and you guys would always reply. Flash forward to now, I'm a senior compositor artist and I fricking love my job. I think I owe that to you guys. Thank you for everything!
