to be honest, if i had to give an explanation behind the audio, i'd say it would eb alex's editing the raws

either way, i doubt it'll have an actual application to knowing what causes it

unless they tell actually tell us what it is[the cause]

I don't know. I think that the audio distortion is important. It's a pretty clear motif, and I think it provides a link between SM and Mask. Maybe the technical details behind it aren't important, it's just there to hint at some link to SM.

The pace on this thing is driving me nuts.

If Alex is totheark and totheark is Masky, then the only tapes Alex wouldn't have had access to are Entries 15 and 16, and there is no distortion on 15, and only one instance of visual tearing in Entry 16.

This is sort of a purposeful ridiculous theory, and I don't really buy Alex as the source of all the distortion, but if Alex = TTA = Masky, then he definitely had access to the majority of the tapes that have distortion.

I think it's much more likely that the distortions are just for dramatic effect, rather than something with a particular science of which situations it occurs. Rule of Scary and all that.

Holy shit.

I think I woke up the neighbors halfa mile away. Note to not ever watch all these videos at once when everyone is asleep and all you got is a candle.

I havent read this whole thing yet, so bare with me please.

I dont believe that anyone is out to help J. This next thing is all in my opinion, of course:

Slenderman saw the film guys as a target in the beginning, and picked a target like a lion to an antelope. He was trying to gain attention, then the film was dropped. Now, J is taking interest. Perhaps him and Maskeh are enemies. Perhaps someone just knows about Slendadude and wants to shit around with him by toying with his next "target".

I dont think anyone in this situation is hostile. The most so I believe is to be Maskyman, not Slenderman, but Slenderman hardly has any attention nowadays. mask is taking the spotlight.

I laughed my ass off when Masky did that Spiderman thing. I couldn't help it.

As I've said before, there's no hard-and-fast rules on the distortion. I think the distortion, both audio and visual, are an unpredictable, variable side-effect, not something that always effects all equipment in the same way.

The missing audio would be Alex's editing, though, I assume.

distortion: maybe alex's got some crap videorecorders
EDIT: and mentioning the wyoming incident is just inviting it to happen again..

Okay, just going through the video again, and I noticed something.

Jay says "all of the following clips", so we know that it's not one continuous shot.
When Jay was editing the video together, he leaves a second or two of black between each clip.
However, there is NO black screen between MM appearing in the room and the shot of Jay's bed being empty, which means that whole section was one single clip.
This means that for some reason, the camera didn't record MM entering the room or moving around the room, and it also didn't record either MM or Jay leaving the room.
It's also worth noting that there IS a black screen between MM appearing at the window and MM appearing in the room, so that would suggest that nothing of interest happens between those two clips - meaning MM probably stayed at the window without moving for a fairly long time, since Jay edited out the gap.
