I have gone down the rabbit hole of watching all the episodes of Corridor Crew. It is a lovely little YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSpFnDQr88xCZ80N-X7t0nQ That is the behind the scenes look at the making of various short form VFX videos that they produce for the Corridor Digital channel https://www.youtube.com/user/CorridorDigital

Now what is so lovely about it is I have been itching to start up a new hobby and they have inspired me to start learning what they do. Now I have no intention of doing this for a living and no expectation of being able to do even a 1/10 of what they are capable of doing. But it is a good excuse to learn a new skill, one I can put to use in fun ways.

The Kid is helping me plan what computer I need and once I get that all together I’ll start small, probably Adobe before even looking at the programs they mention or the tutorials they promote. They are also encouraging me to learn how to use my really good camera that I have that I really just use the zoom on and that’s about it.

I love to learn and they are clearly of the same cloth. I bet they never thought they would inspire a mom with a kid who is old enough to intern with them to start to dabble, but there you go. Really drives home the idea of you never know who you are inspiring.
