Dray, there's a way of having a Slenderman reference in your promotion image without there being a Slenderman reference.

The mannequin that we see in the background of every single one of Vince's opening sequences for the videos.

Demongel, that's a good idea right there x)

Alternatively, sneak in the operator symbol somewhere. It's not very suspicious for people who don't know much about slenderman, and instantly recognizable by everyone else Wink

Edit: aand, that should not happen. Oh well. Prank account had outlived its usefulness, anyways =)

I actually snagged some cropping tape from a sale a while back at an art store, which is basically clear tape with the (X) repeated across it.

...I think I need to find it again. >Very Happy

You could sneak Operator in there by putting a circle around the EverymanHYBRID logo. The arrows form a pretty decent X, so the circle around it would complete the subtle picture.

If I can talk my brother-in-law into it, I'll have him dress-up and just show a shoulder off in the distance. If they call me on it, I'll just say I was mimicking their earlier style.

*Ahem* I am also among the OLD FOLK, but I didn't watch Max Headroom.

Good lord, I disappear for five days and then I have to spend half an hour wading through ten pages of new EMH stuff.
Still, I'm glad a lot happened and I can take it all up in one big digest. I'd like to add my belated thanks to TheGreenFeathers for his efforts and great work.
Does anyone have any idea as to the relevance of eyes here?

Has anyone seen anything in the dark area of the video starting at 0:05?

@phantom: it's Evan sitting at a kitchen table alone in the dark. I sent a message to the EH guys asking if they put it there on purpose, no reply yet. Here is a screencap from SomethingAwful:

In the context of that box? Obviously, Slenderman has no eyes. There was speculation that in Marble Hornets, cameras can act as his eyes, although there was no smoking gun to definitively prove it. The closest thing is probably the last entry, where

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Alex's girlfriend turns on a camera with an old Marble Hornets tape in it, Alex freaks out and within 10 seconds SM is up in their grill


There's also the possibility that only certain people can see Slenderman, that you need to have summoned or pissed him off somehow. I can think of a few interpretations of the eye imagery in that vein... open your eyes to what's really going on, he can see you, I know you can see him, etc.

I think I'll give this promotion video a shot, considering I'm huge into nutrition & working out. I also do have a camera and am good with special effects...

With relation to the box, I was thinking more specifically. In particular, the drawing on the inside of the box-lid, of slendy rising from the corner of an eye. Just writing that has made perfect sense to me now, since he often appears at the periphery of your vision, or "out of the corner of your eye". I don't know if that's metaphor is too much of a blunt object though.

No, that actually makes a lot of sense. Good call Smile

Slender Man pose-able action figures: Not just for EMH/MH anymore!

I may be looking into this a little too much as I tend to overanalyze but our pal Slendy seems to be forming out of the inward part of the eye. Like coming out into the other side of the face. Either that or it could be a metaphor for how he appears in the corner of your eye AND how he festers in your brain and kind of plants himself in you. I don't know haha, just a thought.

Hey just wanted to say that I have been following you guys since gknova and I finally made an account. I will be very happy to help! I do not know if this was already posted but I messaged the EMH crew and they said it was okay to use slendy as a advertisement tool.

I just thought I'd come out of lurking for a bit.

Do they have a fish tank? Because the water sounds at the end reminded me of floods and CYSTW

And the eye ultimately reminded me of seeing the words...

...AND back to lurking.
