At the end of the video it sounds like he is saying twinkie, twinkie. Laughing

He mentions that he will be on AIM when he gets to his next place to camp.

Again, amazing production values. I thought this was going to be a small grassroots sort of thing (as most that start on Blogger seem to be) -- especially when someone recognized the picture of the dwarf. It seemed like the other photos were innocuous enough to have all been found online as well. But there has to be some money behind this; animation like that is expensive. Even if you're doing it yourself, you need good software and equipment to make that nice of a render. Really really cool!

Obviously this guy has some sponsors. The question is, where's the product placement - the type of meat? Laughing

That's what I'm thinking, that's why I put it in a spoiler tag. Laughing
It could very well be our next update.

But the add dates are weird on the youtube page. The two that are up on the blogspot were added last week, and the one that hasn't been put on the blogspot was added 6 months ago. If this is Leon's, why would he upload the third video in the sequence before he uploaded the first two?

A couple of things come to mind here.

Either A - The order they are coming in the blog are the order Leon is telling them within the story

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Looking at them along with the one in the tag seems to make sense in that the order is for the storyline


B - He decided on using them for the ARG but they weren't made specifically for it.

Busty Kelp

Sorry for the double post, but I googled busty kelp (the name on the youtube account) and found this: http://www.bustykelp.com/

It's a site for an animation company. In their projects section they discuss their "Wood Imp" series and how the have big plans for it in the future.
So, either Leon borrowed these for his own use, or Leon is a character in their plans for this project.

Let's let this take it's own direction, I think. Good stuff in any case...

@|3lack5mith>> Really, join up. It's free, and there are benfits, like being able to edit your posts, get PMs, etc. You're already part of the community, so you might as well...

Yeah sorry this is my first arg so I dont even think of registering I just come on and post will do though haha.

This is totally out of character/game or whatever and I'm going to spoiler tag it because it may spoil the feeling for some people.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I emailed the contact at bustykelp.com and asked them about the videos. The ARG's nothing to do with them but Paul, the contact, says the PM has his permission to use the vids.

Aww, what a shame. I was hoping that we were getting the first bits of some movie promo. Ah well, it's still really nifty.

For your first shot at an arg it's pretty darn good. Keep up the good work |3lack5mith!
