Interesting.
Their characters are striking, and it's pretty original to start the vlog as if it's a journal for their photography. Not too many cliche's
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
(I did see several Operator symbols and that nightmare entry, which in my opinion is kind of overly done by this point)
so I'm subscribing to see more.
So far, Slendy has not shown in any of their entries so far, correct? I couldn't see him, but I have terrible eyesight and I'm not too good at catching the smaller stuff. All I saw was the 3 (4?) symbols in the last entry, and that the video and audio went wacky in several parts, but didn't notice anything else.
Can't wait for the next video (: so far they have been updating everyday, so it's likely that we will get another one tomorrow or the next day. Wonder if something will happen at the shoot.

Thought so :3 They actually started to follow my main Tumblr and I followed on both accounts.
Seems like a series I need to catch up on, haha :3

One quick thought, keeping in mind I've yet to watch or read any of it and watching the vid may change my mind about this . . .
Calling the first video Prologue seems to point out the fictional nature of the series, which seems like a slight misstep. Like I said I haven't hit play yet so maybe the video explains the title in a less immersion harming way.

Now THIS is a series with good female leads. I can already tell this is going to be much better than TJA.

That is true, calling it "prologue" seems to explain that there will be a story going on rather than a journal, of which they implied. "Introduction" probably would have been a better title, or something similair....

Other than that one note (I've watched the first three vids so far) they're giving me a good impression of people who just started up a vlog with no idea that something weird was going to start happening to them, something I do like in a Slendervlog. It's got a lot of potential so far I think.
Edit: Another point in their favor. Audio distortion that makes me think "OMG, Slenderman!" not "OMG, my fucking ears! Why do you insist on causing me pain?"

They followed me today, too. No idea how they glommed onto me or found my tumblr. I'll check it out.

They're off to a decent start, I agree that I enjoy it much more for a series to establish some realism rather than OMGSLONDEMONZ right off the bat. The protagonists seem like interesting and likable people. My only complaint so far is the use of the Operator symbol, which is something I've never been a fan of outside of Marble Hornets. That being said, they've gained a follower/subscriber out of me. I'm looking forward to where this may go!

i like the slow-roasted approach that they're 6 episodes in, and there's no sign of the man...

I was just happy because they were the first Slenderblog to follow me. :3
I'm oblivious, and I haven't seen the operator symbol anywhere yet. Can anyone point out to me where they are?

I have subscribed as well. I think it's been well done so far with a believable launch.
Log #6 is up.

#6 was pretty well done (: looked like Charlie saw Slendy or something before this video cause she had that whole paranoid "looking-over-your-shoulder" thing going on.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
good hinting of Slendy at the end of the vid.

I was also baited through a tumblr following. I guess they looked for people subscribed to Jeff and/or Adam (Noah)'s tumblrs. It looks like it's starting off all right. I'm definitely interested.

Aerynn's hot.
Well, I'm sold.
EDIT: in all seriousness, this series looks neat actually. I plan on following this series, I subscribed. Also, did anyone else notice the interesting cinematography? Yes, it seems as though this series has actual cinematography . Very nicely done. I honestly didn't expect any other good up-and-comer vlogs to come out after MLA, DH and TJA but I feel these british gals could be in the running.
