Vessi shoes make my feet sweat, are too tight in my normal size and dont keep them warm in cold or cool in warm... Over priced but hey thats my experience
Fking BOT comment by Corridor
you should do a reaction to eddsworld
Thanks Guys! I had a blast. Video came out great, you always do such a nice job making them entertaining :) Let’s do it again soon!
Thank YOU Aaron!! Such a wealth of knowledge and a joy to sit down with. Can't wait for the next one.
Hi Aaron! Have you heard of Vessi? They're great shoes 😄
Amazing talent. I wish Disney would roll back to the time when they made great 2D animation. They seem to have lost their way since CGi became the defacto standard.
Something I appreciate is your warmth and heart when talking about animation. It's a labor of love, and that shines through in any interview you give. Thank you!
Thank you, Aaron, for contributing so much to my favorite Disney movie "The Lion King"!
That Ad campaign animation at the end is unbelievable.
It was really beautiful
I remember watching that in TV
The JL Christmas ad has been an event for so many years now, but I truly think they never bettered this one.
That sponsor segment was photo realistic though
It is one of my favourite ads. Even thinking about it now brings tears to my eyes. I guess I know what the next video I watch is going to be.
Aaron Blaise is one of the best ever guests you've had on this show. Not only because of the depth of his work and knowledge, but how well he conveys his own emotions and feelings with each project. Would LOVE to see more!
13:55 The inspiration for Nala is so precious. Thank you for sharing.
Hell his way of telling this story made *me* all emotional. What a great guy.
Nearly made me cry. Beautiful story.
Beautiful Memories ❤
Aaron is easily my favorite guest. Despite his amazing storied career, he makes it all feel so personal, relatable, and idk achievable? Like I'll never do what he did, but hearing him reflect on his past makes my loftiest plans for the future feel possible. What a treasure and great storyteller. Make sure he keeps coming back.
indeed. you almost feel his success is contagious.
I seriously love how you guys have actual legends on your show and it's totally casual
Aaron "Florida Beast Man" Blaise lol
Shout out to the @moderndayjames clip in there! Love seeing these animation episodes.
Proko, is so wholesome to see you around here! Shout out to Blaise, The Animation God ❤
Love learning art from you too Proko :)
@@coltapodaca Thanks for letting us be a part of your art journey!
😂 Florida Beast Man… yup that totally fits!
I went on the studio tour at Disney MGM back in the day, where you could walk through a windowed hallway and watch the animators at work. They were doing Beauty and the Beast, and near the window was the camera stand where they would record sketches frame by frame onto videotape. A worker (obviously not Aaron) was recording that moment between Belle and Beast where his roar blows her hair back. It’s incredible that Disney actually provided a literal window into the production of their films for a time.
I’d be so stressed out to be exposed like a zoo animal at my workplace 😅
I remember this! They were animating Mulan at the time. The animators weren't there, but all the sketches and drawing desk were there along with models. So cool. Wish they would've kept this area.
I went during lilo and stitch and got to talk to an animator.
Dang, that ad campaign has to be one of the most creative uses of miniatures I've ever heard. Also, Aaron should be a regular guest, he's fantastic!
2:34 I love the detail of Roger's eyes leaving holes in the dirt. Sooo good
Even knowing the context, that was a startling sentence
@@cleverusername8319 ....mmk
Gotta start doing sound designers/ musicians react episodes in films
Give me Hans Zimmer reacts!
please can we have this? Somewhere? maybe corridor crew isnt the area to do it, but they sometimes do sound designing themselves.
Totally. I wanna see reactions to transformers 2007-2011) and like pacific rim, etc. movies with perfect sound design
@@jasonkolker9444 God! How Transformers 2007 lost to The Bourne Ultimatum in the Oscars totally baffles me.
Having a Foley artist showcase their process in creating everyday sounds for movies would be cool!
Watching Aaron talk about and get emotional about his memories on the Lion King made me tear up! So heartwarming! What a genuinely passionate and nice guy.
The John Lewis Christmas Ad is almost a tradition at this point in the UK. Every year they get better and better. Incredible to see Aaron was a part of something so beloved as well. The dude is a legend, wow.
They used to get better and better every year, but I think this was probably when they peaked. I couldn't even tell you what this year's was
The bear reminds me of Brother Bear.
@@PowerRangerfan Yeah, you can totally see his style peeping through.
@@georgehelyar True, not every year is a banger but I thought Edgar the dragon was a pretty good one a couple years ago.
i know some of the people who work on it; way more work than you would imagine
Another AARON episode!!! Now we need a trilogy where he talks about Corridor’s work especially with RPS
Having the people who animated my childhood is always a treat. Please keep having these paper animators on. If possible, it would be great to get some of the old anime guys on as well.
Seeing all these old Disney classics make me so tear-eyed: on one hand I am so happy for all the great moments in animation history you've given me.
On the other hand it makes me sad how this level of craftsmanship and and quality has been completely lost in today's Disney animated movies. And 2 D always wins 3D imho
Despite the high level of detail, you can see how much less emotion is in the 3D characters in the Lion King remake. It feels like it's missing a soul. Aaron's animation, and the team's animation in the 2D film is emotional and stunning. The 3D film looks like a mid-budget knockoff (probably because it was).
Aaron is easily the best guest on this show, imo. I'm not even a huge animation buff, but I could listen to him tell stories and share techniques for hours
I teared up too watching this. How can someone have so much kindness and grandpa-energy? He's the kinda person that every kid should have reading them bedtime stories.
It’s crazy to see all the passion that goes into these characters. And how the animators often want to go back and change things. Imagine if instead of Disney putting money into CGI remakes, they put the money into the hands of the passionate hand animators that still exist.
To be fair, the CGI animators are also probably just as passionate about their work
@@inyrui Well of course they are. The point is more about how people are tired of live action remakes. There’s still a lot of passion put into them of course. He was even talking about it cause he worked on the new lion king. The animators of these newer films are probably the only ones who should be credited for the work. Since the writing changes have been lazy and subpar at best.
@@jessebueckert5652 tbh I agree I can't stand any of these live actions remakes they've made. But I do feel bad for the animators who have to work on these projects instead of something new and creative and inspired
@@inyrui exactly and it’s creating a cycle of losing money, and in turn funding and resources for the next film or TV show. It’s sad to see. Like marvel is such a perfect example. I wish we could go back to waiting a few years between a movie. Like you can’t recreate the amount of excitement I had when the first avengers film came out after seeing the first the first these films. Ah well🤷♂️
Even if they have a gem come out now, there almost no anticipation or excitement.
The remakes are made by completely different people in different branch on the company. It’s not taking away from anything. I don’t know why people have to complain of Disney company as a whole when the Walt Disney animation studios is the topic of discussion
these episodes always make me cry :P just the passion that goes into these movies! also love Aaron he taught me so much that I use in my own art!
What he said about using his daughter and her eyes as reference for Nala was so sweet 🥲
I definitely teared up too. Aaron is one of my art heros and listening to him talk about his work like this was so special
My teacher, Aaron Blaise. Most amazing dude ever
Never really knew about Aaron blaise, but the times he has been on here I realized he is the one who was in charge of my favorite movies or characters. Awesome director and animator.
the animation episodes are some of the best for sure
This episode shows you how do a good interview.
You ask great questions > then allow the guest to answer freely without any interruption > appreciate their response > then follow up with additional questions.
They’ve always been really good about that anytime they have guests. The people at Corridor are great, very professional people.
100% it’s now extremely rare to find any American podcast/talk based video doing this: Presenters are so self centred that they ask a question and answer it themselves which is awful to listen to. One thing CC get right for the most part-your guest should not have to battle for time and should have 50-90% of the airtime in the end product
Man, that shot at the end with all the animals under the tree is so perfect it's uncanny considering how it was made. It looks like a REALLY well blended 2D into 3D backdrop, because it is!
Aladdin was the first movie I saw in a theater as a kid, and there's something unexpectedly sentimental about getting to see and hear from one of the animators from it.
What a passionate, talented, genuine and humble guy. These episodes are so uplifting. And that John Lewis ad - so cool.
what impressed me a lot is that so many different people worked on these characters but yet they all look very consistent to each other. i imagine it must be difficult to nail the artstyle for each individual
I love when you have Aaron on. Some of the best episodes with such a cool, nice, and immensely talented guy who helped shape our childhoods. Please keep having him back if he doesn't get tired of the couch :-P
CHICKEN RUN 2 has a stop motion dolly zoom, it be interesting to see you react
I love Aardman Animations studio.
We need an Aardman episode, gromit is one of the best most emotive characters ever on screen.
I was taken aback with how amazing this man's career has been. He's been apart of everyone born in the 90's childhoods.
2d guy here. Seeing you guys go through these visuals with Aaron is incredibly inspiring. Our art form is so time consuming, and we are often alone, so seeing it valued and analyzed in this way is so heartwarming ❤
Its always a treat to see Aaron on the channel, Still the main reason I practice 2D animation is because of him, and to just hear the stories of all these amazing films that defined my childhood...
Every while with Aaron is heartwarming, he's really connecting the professionalism with passion. It's awesome you could meet and discuss some of his works. He's a great inspiration. At the end I feel like crying again!
You should take a look at Wolfwalkers. Absolutely amazing movie. I actually watched the comic con panel for it recently and they even mentioned looking at Aaron's stuff for reference.
Aaron actually helped out with Wolfwalkers his credited in the credits
I've been hoping they would do Wolfwalkers and other Cartoon Saloon movies for ages😊
More of Aaron!
I am OBSESSED with the way that Christmas ad was made. So unbelievably unique, how has that format not been copied for a children's movie yet???
Think it would be cool to see you try and make the most realistic pov shot using visual effects
Wow, one of the animators that literally SHAPED our childhood. What an honor to hear from him
Glad to hear everyone has the same experience of crying the first time they see the lion king musical
First time?!? The beautiful, emotional music makes me cry EVERY time I watch the broadway or animated versions!
Saw the first run on Broadway spring of 2001. Was amazing.
6:18 Thats ittt, you work on something so much you completely understand it. Awesome guest Corridor!
I've been following Aaron Blaise's work for so long, yet this is the first time I heard he worked on my favourite Lewis advert!?!?
The Bear and the Hare is hands down my favourite animation ever.
It will never fail to make me cry, it is so simple, beautiful and a masterclass of storytelling.
In the UK it truly sparked a new excitement for Christmas.
If you haven't seen it, please, if it is the one thing you do today, watch it.
LOVE the animators! These people make real magic. A big thank you for all the hard work and soul you put into these movies. Without you my childhood would have been dull and dark. I know many others can relate.
Woke up at a good time
A new Corridor video coming up in the feed while my coffee is still warm? Hell yea.
Good morning sleepyhead 😊
What time?
@@CodingAbroadWhere's Reznov?
10:50 PM here
That commercial at the end was super neat!
This was a super cute episode. Aaron seems so chill and humble. MORE PETER PLZZZZZZZ
So cool, we get to hangout with all of these creators vicariously through you all!
I miss good old 2D animation so much. It was a gift of gods to us.
Thank you for bringing back the legend Aaron Blaise! Really loved this episode too! I really really hope though that you guys start talking about more anime again in these animators react
Amazing episode again with such a legendary artist thank you ! (And wow the last commercial technique took me by surprise)
Dang. So, I went and watched the Christmas advert, and it made me unexpectedly emotional. Something about the look on that bunny's face when they were missing their friend just broke my heart. Well done, Aaron.
What an absolute cool dude, so much talent comes to the couch and I adore these episodes so thanks to Aaron and the team for putting them together. I look forward to whoever comes next.
i have to ask you guys to take a look at the opening sequence from S2E1 of Halo, there is one particular shot of two Spartans running towards camera that absolutely needs a reaction from the couch!
Only on CZcams we have the opportunity to see such great stories like that from Aaron Blaise. It's amazing to see the background of movies from my childhood. Very inspiring and emotional too. Thanks Corridor.
I'd love to see Aaron on the couch again, he is an amazing man. Love his story, hope to hear more from him.
I made some of the props for one the John Lewis Christmas advert's (the clip of child blowing up the balloon). Never did I think I'd see anything of mine on the Corridor Crew channel! What a treat! 💞
I love Corridor Crew, they never fail to inspire me.
This is such a great episode! Aaron is sooo cool, and I'm understanding a bit more about some of his methods! I really gotta try working on characters more, getting their forms better. Been awhile. Ha!
Great episode! Love hearing the behind the scenes from Aaron Blaise.
Really enjoyed these videos with Aaron Blaise, thank you Aaron for sharing your experience!!
Aaron is the best guest! Such a great guy with not only a phenomenal knowledge but also very emotional and open! I had a blast with his episodes!
What a thrill to see a couple of my own shots in there at the end when you cue up the bear and hare commercial! I have been binge watching corridor crew for a week and the pop I see a couple of my stop motion shots ! Surreal and fun ! Keep up the great work guys, love the channel!
All the best Phil
This is amazing! I can't imagine what it would feel like to be a part of such a wonderful history of animation. This man has worked on most of my childhood animated movies, such a delight to see him come to Corridor and show off some of his talent.
The John Lewis commercials here in the UK are considered to be the best marketing campaigns around, they have almost become synonymous with the 'start' of Christmas - in my opinion the Bear and the Hare is absolutely one of my favourites, including heart warming especially for the holiday season. 🥰
This was a fascinating episode - thank you for putting it together.
I really love the idea of how the animators back then had a mentorship program. What an amazing thing to learn from a supportive pro to then be able to pass that on to others. I think that this model of teaching/learning has been severely lost in a lot creative arts and even in other enterprises. Let's bring it back!
I love how the guy who draws so many animals dresses like a zookeeper 😂
Amazing episode! Always love hearing what the disney guys have to say
This felt like a very special episode, what a wonderful guest and insight in to the life he has lead not only as an animator but as a father.
Thank you Mr. Blaise for coming back for another episode to get us all emotional thinking about our favorite childhood movies. Ah still favorite movies! You have left your footprint in history Sir. ;-)
Aaron is such a great guest and seems like a truly genuine person, always love to see more of him! I wish I had the even 5% of his passion and work ethic.
One of the best react videos in a while. Please, if you can, have Aaron come by more often!
Always a pleasure to see you guys interview Aaron Blaise!
The last segment was truly incredible and id love to see a movie or even short made the same way
Without a doubt the best guest you have had on! The passion is captivating, and the questions you asked were just perfect.
I could watch you guys talk to Aaron for hours, learning, laughing, and hearing him imparting his life's work to us all
Aaron seems like the most down to earth amazing bloke. So good to see him back on the couch.
Aaron Blaise is awesome!
I hope we get more videos with him.
I can't believe he did that John Lewis ad. By far my favourite one!
This was an amazing interview that let us see how animation of two characters interact works. Thanks guys!
this dude is a huge part of our child hood. i love seeing the actual people who worked on these movies.. thanks ccrew!
wow i just love this channel
all that knowledge, joy and art
Any love from you guys for ‘Blue Eye Samurai?’ I was blown away by the whole show but the visuals in particular are simply stunning. I would love to see a breakdown not only of their seamless combo of 2D and 3D animation styles and techniques but also in how cinematically scenes are put together from a shot selection and editing perspective. It’s really one of the most incredible pieces of animation I’ve seen on tv in a long, long time.
As a kid I really liked Watership Down's realistic and native art styles of the animals, it's what made it one of my all-time favourite animated movies. My daughter was 2 in 1988 when Who Framed Roger Rabbit came out, it's still one of her all-time favourites, she freakin' loved Roger, had to wash her Roger plush doll when she was sleeping, it was the only time she didn't have it tucked under her arm.
Technically she did have it tucked under her arm while she was she sleeping, it was the only time you could sneak it away from her without a tantrum tossing fit.
Aaron talking about getting emotional about his animation, especially of a character, is such an interesting and unique perspective to this show. And as much as I didn't like the live action remake of The Lion King him saying the Broadway show interpretation to something he brought to life bringing tears to his eyes helps me to reconsider things, like the live action remake, and maybe think about these types of things in a different way.
Aaron is awesome and really hope he comes back again again!
Amazing as always. I found some cool things for you guys to look at. The adventures of Paddington bear is 3d animated but made to kinda look like stop motion as a nod to the original Paddington show done with puppets. Also, the intro to season 17 of South Park which combines the 2d style of the show and 3d.
Easily one of my all time favorite guests, he’s just so open and knowledgeable and fascinating!
thank you corridor , thanks so much, we live with these cartoons when we are young and always wonder their animator and now so good to see like this. please go ask for more animator like them.
wow hearing about those old lohn lewis animations is crazy as a brit. i remember watching those adverts and thinking they were awesome and not understanding how they did it, espesially hearing its the same animator as naala etc. what a surprise to learn that from animators react. What a gem of an episode guys. keep up the good work.
Makes your appreciate the animators so much more than a name in the credits, great video
Hearing Aaron talk about his daughter inspiring his work got ME tearing up! What a guy.
These videos are so good. They always lead me down great rabbit holes, and the artists more than deserve the recognition.
All so amazing. That John Lewis ad (The Bear and the Hare) has a great making of video as well. Always loved the effort that went into it to give it that special look.
I was just talking to a friend the other day about Aladdin and we touched on the subject of Rajah as a character. The first thing that I said was that Rajah was animated with such an emotional range that it felt like he was Jasmine's 'spirit', not just a pet. Aaron's work gives such a softness and humor to the animal as well. Really glad you got him on your show, this man's life experience is an international treasure.
Dude’ puts the heart and emotion in his animation and explanation… Luv it!!
I look forward to my Sunday mornings because I know a VFX artists react video is coming. Cheers from Australia!
blaze it up! he is such a great teacher and speaker.
I am continually so grateful to corridor for giving attention to animators, my dream has always been to be an animator, and these episodes help me see that despite the hurdles (I was rejected from uni due to not having maths) that I should work. Beat this maths, and get into uni, to focus and get my dreams of becoming an animator into reality
everytime he tell the story behind it, i feel the emotion and the excitement!!!
this how you work with the heart..
