For the first time ever, Corridor Digital brought their massively popular VFX Artists React series to a live audience; and they did it right here at the Puget Systems booth at NAB 2026!
Wren Weichman, Niko Pueringer, and Sam Gorski take the stage together to react to, break down, and debate some of the best and worst CGI ever put on screen; live, unscripted, and in front of a crowd that did not disappoint.
No editing. No second takes. No 2–3 hour session trimmed down to a tidy 30-minute episode. What you're watching is the real thing: the full conversation, the tangents, the hot takes, and the moments where nobody could agree; exactly the way it happened.
The crew digs into everything from AI-generated footage and the limits of synthetic actors, to a deep dive on actor de-aging and "resurrection" tier lists (yes, they talked about Val Kilmer and Sandra Bullock), to a classic Clint Eastwood tank-through-a-wall scene that went sideways in the best possible way. Along the way, they revisit why the 90s approach to VFX still holds lessons the industry keeps forgetting.
Oh, and fun fact: the couch they normally film on? It's a pull-out bed — and the middle seat has been sinking for years. Today they finally got an upgrade!
If you've ever watched VFX Artists React and wished you could be in the room, this is your moment. The first-ever live episode!
