 [DEAD SERIES] WatchingWhiteBalance
A project I started, based on the Slenderman Mythos. It's gonna be fun to make, hope it is to watch.

Yes, I'm self promoting, but I just want to know people's general opinions.

I had the Idea of crossing over a written blog with a video series for my slendy project. And so here it is.

Also, a bit of backstory:

Cameron Mansford (Me (Name changed though)) is a 16 year old art student from the north of England, dabbling in photography (Basically like me, to make it easier to portray the character). Cam goes on a photo shoot to "The Mount," and in the process, looses a small portion of his memory from the shhot, and 2 strange video files appear on his camera.

Also, side note, the clicking distortion present in the second clip on video #1 WERE NOT edited in by me. Which is always worrying.

First off self promotion isn't allowed on this forum.

Second, your blog starts so unnaturally. In the second entry you're talking about someone moving your camera. I haven't read on but that's way to fast for a blog to have strange stuff happen in my opinion.

Thirdly, the video isn't very good. It's short which is a good thing. The blaring distortion makes me immediately turn off a video nowadays, if you need to rely on that to make people frightened then you need to rethink things.

Oh right, I wasn't aware it wasn't allowed.

Also, the thing about someone moving my camera and breaking it was actually true, un-related to the blog.

Finally, thanks for the feedback on the distortion, though I won't be putting it in all the time, in fact very rarely. It was just there needed to be some kind of prompt for Cameron to go back there and Investigate.

But like I said, thanks for the feedback. Very Happy

Yeah, self-promotion is a big no-no here and the same goes for posting in a thread about your series. You should consider it a good thing though, because nothing hurts a series quite like pointing out and explaining every little detail OOG. You don't want to pull back the curtain this early, it's all about mystery. Keep your audience guessing. There's not too much to go off yet, although I'll agree the distortion is a bit too in-your-face. The distortion has been a great tool in building suspense for these series, but don't go overboard with it. That said, you already mentioned that you plan on using it sparingly so no big deal. I'll have to keep watching before I get a solid opinion on it.

Personally, I will have to read the blog more and watch more videos you upload before I will tell you my true feelings and opinions on your work. I think that it's hard to give a solid answer when blogs and vlogs are just starting. I will tell you keep it original, try not to rip off the other established series. I can see some positional for this series. I would make sure everything is well thought out and really developed before posting another post on your blog.

The fact that you call it out shows me that you KNOW that it's against the rules and you chose to flout them. DON'T DO IT AGAIN.

Before you post again please review the TOS here.

And the stickied threads and the top of this forum, especially this one.

When you are ready to post your series again please PM me, Dixie-Wolf or a member to post it for you. If you post it yourself I will just lock it again.[/url]
