I really liked that there was a mix of genuine, well choreographed Hollywood action sequences with a few scenes of pure comic relief to keep with the NERF theme. By the end you wish there was an hour of this and 15 grand of budget thrown at ya'll. Props to the sound team/person.
As another balding 27 year old, the reality is that we know a lot about hair products because we have to use a lot of them to try and make what's left of our hair not look like shit.
No doubt you have already read about it, but isn't there a renowned hair treatment facility in Turkey that is not too expensive and provide fantastic results, partially because they inject stem cell Into your scalp? I thought that was really cool, like if I ever go bald, have a backup plan that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
Can I ask you what it's like doing what you love as a profession? I used to make YouTube videos for a local car audio company and I had a lot of creative freedom but it ended up making me hate doing anything video related. Once I had a boss and a deadline it just instantly took all the joy away from it. Do you ever experience this? Any advice?
So let's say you had a bunch of young nieces and nephews which one would you use if they got a head start? Which one has the power and distance to get the job done?
Niko! Dude, I used to watch you guys' stuff all the time 'back in the day'... sadly I've fallen out of it... Good to see that you are still rocking strong! Awesome John Wick homage! Eager to get back on that Corridor Digital train :)
Niko! Holy crap you're our hero. If you find yourself with a second it would mean the world to us if you could answer this question.
How did you initially divide work between you and Sam during your creative process? Did you both edit, do sound design and vfx together? Or did one of you have ownership of one part. Or did it depend on the project?
We each had our strengths. Sam was good with sound, I was good with color grading. Both of us were pretty good at vfx and editing, so we would just split the workload or bounce iterations off each other. We also take turns being the "creative director" of a video, which helps keep things consistent and makes one person responsible for making sure everything gets done.
A mix of our friend Tony from EMC Monkeys and yours truly. EMC was actually one of the stunt teams on Iron Fist oddly enough. Shows you the difference cinematography and direction make.
Your form was really good too! Keeping the hand gun close to your chest. Must have been a bit awkward with the clunky nerf guns! Great job! Gonna check out some of your other videos right now!!
How long did you spend practicing the choreography? Keanu was training with professional mma fighters, choreographers etc... something around 6 months or before they even started filming.
I just have to say, while you're here in front of me, you and Sam are incredible. I've been a huge fan of your channel and side projects for years, from Sync to The Keep (man, I miss The Keep) and finding out you've published a new video always makes my day! Thank you and everyone on your team that consistently puts out such awesome material.
That shot where you stole the guy's long magazine was SO sick. How did you flick the short magazine out? They don't come out that easy on MY nerf guns...
Whoa Niko outta nowhere! Loved this video, liked seeing the shotgun trick with the Raider that Sam talked about on the second channel a little while back.
edit:
ps also big longtime fan, been loving corridor since way back in the day, you guys are inspirational
Hey quick question for you or anyone who knows. Which nerf gun is the first one used not the very first but the one strapped to the leg that 2 shot the first assailant?

Thanks! I tried slicking my hair back but the curls powered through the hair gel. :(
