Viral Agency a trailer sent to me mysteriously - any ideas ok - got this from an unknown source 'Viral Agency' - apparently a film coming - anyone else found any other trailers? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdMCTHlNdY8
Looks good regardless of an ARG or not - though if an ARG were tied to this I'd be loving it - anyone else found anything?

edit - just un-stretched my signature - sorry all!!! [thanks for head up!]

well first, could you please line-break your signature so it doesn't stretch the forum?
second, the video description reads:
Quote:
"...Great God T Cernunnos, return to earth H again. Come at my E call and show thyself to W men. Shepherd R of Goats, A upon wild hills C way, Lead thy lost H flock from darkness unto day. Open the door that hath no key..."
single cap letters are THEWRACH
No idea what to make of the 'scratches', though the flashing makes me think of morse (but it seems quite random) like it should be a code.
and IOUIDO is in the UK.
ETA: seems like a typo or another code, but "WRACH" matches a mountain peak in Wales (UK) called Pen Llithrig y Wrach

this reminds me of kanji/hanzi
in chinese and japanese writing, there are basic strokes that make up the rest of each character....each stroke is significant, has it's own number, and order to how it should be written
for example: if a western person was to draw an asian character, they would try to just imitate the form as long as it looked right; but there is a precise art to this type of writing
so the stroke name might be significant, or even it's order number
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_order
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CJK_strokes
however, the one long diagonal stroke doesn't look chinese to me and may be japanese....but i only have the most rudimentary knowledge of this
someone well versed in either would be able to tell off the bat

'Wrach' is Welsh for 'witch'. Considering what happens in the video, something reminiscent of The Blair Witch Trials maybe?

Check this out:
http://www.asabailey.com/blog/uncategorized/iouido-1.html
That blog has a link to " vira agency london" on it... site displays only a picture that looks like a night shot and a uk phone number.
Nothing special in the sourcecode.

It looks like there is some good staying up late at night. Since I subscribed to the channel IOUIDO I got both a private message and a profile comment with this " IOUIDO.2 إلى الآن "
Its Arabic meaning 'To Now' I haven't had a chance to look anywhere else, but IOUIDO has already posted here as well.
EDIT: 02032871444 seems to be a number in london. not sure if I should call or not.

Noting that further down Asa's blog there's talk of Witch House Films, based in Wales, and with the first production due out early 2011....
Calling the number is quite interesting.....
Oog - If this is a viral for a film, I'd be interested in knowing more. I write for one of the UK's leading horror websites so we could maybe do some coverage.

ideas suddenly after a lot of sleep I've not got the technology - but could someone slow the videos down and transcribe the long and short strokes - feels like morse code when watching them again....

There's a morse vibe to some of the phone message too.
