[COMPLETED SERIES] CompileTRUTH

http://www.youtube.com/user/compileTRUTH

This guy's video showed up in the related videos on my HABIT trial vid. Looks like he's doing a vlog with a twist - rather than weird stuff happening to him, he's providing synopses of past slenderblogs to help people catch up with ongoing stories (or get the general picture of what happened in stories that have concluded).

The presentation is kind of pompous and pretentious, but I think there's a kernel of a good idea there. And it's nice to have something different from "college boys molested by skinny man".

Inb4 people accuse me of being this guy (I wish I had a camera as nice as his, then my rabbit video wouldn't have looked like ass).

Clever concept. But anything with a musical soundtrack makes me want to immediately click away.

Oh, I was wondering when one of these were going to pop up in video form. If this guy makes videos explaining HM, TT, EMH, and the other blogs, I like where this is going. Wink

So it's like Z's Slenderblog, Encyclopedia Slenderia, Golom Tulpa Anima, and The Slenderblog, but in video form? Razz

I kid. It looks pretty interesting. Does anyone know if he's just going to do completed blogs, or ones that are in progress as well?

Not sure as of yet, but the JAF video was done very well. I can't wait to see who this guy reviews next!

I feel like picking apart all of his videos flaws, because I already saw one less than a minute in. "Logan" received the notebook, and yet he claims that "Logan" never spoke again after the ambush, using the notebook as his sole means of communication.

I loves JAFOOL. I am bitter glad that Dav got the notebook instead of me .[/strike]

I like this.

Did anyone notice in his intro video when his back is facing the camera, there is a Best Western logo outside. He was filming from a hotel. Surprised

He has thrown in a few corrections as annotations; if you drop him a line he'll probably correct it.

I just appreciated a decent summary of the important points of JAF in under 10 minutes. And he picked better music that time around.

Ooh, I am very much intrigued. I like the concept of making a review blog but with a dark, very much Slender-vlog inspired feel. So far, it's pretty artfully done. Can't wait to see more videos from this guy. =D

He's updated with a couple of EMH-themed videos - interestingly, he's split off the summaries of the facts from the discussion of the speculation, so there's one video which covers the first three months of EMH and one video which discusses the theorising surrounding the hidden videos. Not sure what I make of that - it keeps the summary videos down to a reasonable length, but at the same time I think it risks conflating facts and speculation. (For example, he seems more confident than we have been about which of the early Slendy sightings were fakes).

"It is fear incarnate!"

I KNEW IT!

In other news, I enjoy the choice of music.

Yeah, the music goes a long way in setting the mood / atmosphere.

I'm really enjoying this series so far. Not only is it an interesting idea, but it's being executed very well. My only quip is that I wish he'd have some sort of indicator on the video when he is showing sources that he's added to himself (e.g. when he repeats parts of video evidence or zooms in on something in particular), such as a little mark in the corner or something.

Well done sir, well done.

Analyzes the first EMH "hidden video." Pretty interesting. I'm really liking his dedication.

Damn, this guy's bookin'. I'm still up in the air whether he's doing these analyses from an in-game or out-of-game perspective. I'd like to think it's in-game but it's hard to tell.

I do enjoy how he's trying to link all these Slenderman stories together in a passive way that avoids gamejacking. Never combining two stories into one video, or trying to force-fit theories, but still pointing out when the shared elements of the mythos are utilized.
