fun with muzzle flashes

I watch the Corridor Crew special-effects guys on YouTube. This is a group of dudes who work on movie special effects (often called VFX for "visual effects"), and their insights have proved to be very fun and educational. Since I'm eternally fascinated by movie-making, I've been following the crew's videos with a lot of enthusiasm. In a recent video, the crew complained that the muzzle flashes and gun sounds in "John Wick" (2014) sorely needed improvement, and in the followup video, embedded below, the guys actually "fix" one gunfight scene from the movie, and have a bit of fun along the way by creating an over-the-top version of the scene. The crew also did a hilarious Keanu Reeves deepfake video. See below.
