What was it? I didn't notice.

at about 4:30 there's a shot of the ground with an extra shadow standing next to nick while david was up ahead. the next shot sees nick running toward david, so I think this might have freaked nick out. It could just be the juxtaposing of the clips and the shadow could be any random person in the graveyard, but the paranoia in me automatically yelled "Cultist!" and proceeded to keep me terrified for the rest of the video.

This is the best frame that I have for that. It looks like the shadow of a tall, thin person. It appears to be too long to be the shadow of one of the miniature flags that were also casting shadows upon the ground in the area. I dumped 50 frames from this sequence; they are available here: http://photobucket.com/JA_22 .

EDIT: I forgot the main reason for this post/bump. I love this series. I'm watching a lot of the series here and this one stands out more than any other (save MH, which has been slow and full of delays this season). The storytelling is slow and deliberate, but the pacing couldn't be better. The camera work and quality of the video is unsurpassed. I have become very sick of Flipcams and cell-phone videos; these guys are bringing their A-game, every time. This series is truly a .357 Magnum in a world of Derringers.

I don't know if I've said this already. But if someone presented this to me as real, I would believe it. The acting and everything is just incredibly done.

Awww I saw the bump and thought we had a new video. I will agree with everyone and say that this series is just fantastic, It is probably my favorite horror vlog out right now.

thank god, I needed some sort of confirmation that our unnamed narrator was still alive and the cultists haven't discovered that he's been uploading their escapades online

I don't know why, but this made me actually lol.

But yes, it is good to see an update. Looking forward to what's to come.

So I recieve an e-mail in my Youtube email box this morning.

It's RiseShineProductions (which is basically the creators of JustAcquaintances's other page where they put their other videos and trailers) saying that there's going to be a particular gap until the next video and that the appropriate explanation would be on their OOG facebook page soon (once it garners attention) which is here:

Not sure why it took us so long to say this, but thank you so much for helping promote our series. It really means a lot to us. We are pretty frequent lurkers over on unfiction, and would like to thank you as well as everyone else for the compliments on the series.


This i'm pretty sure is ok to directly quote from their message.

I don't mind waiting a bit longer given that these guys make quality videos.

Maybe I'm just fishing for stuff to go by and this may be totally wrong, but here's what they posted on their Facebook August 10th:

Quote:
Thanks a lot to the assholes that prevented us from finishing our shoot. Now we have to wait months to finish it...


On top of that someone commented and questioned if it was JustAcquaintances....to say I'm concerned would be very true.

Always a bummer when things like this happen. Hopefully everything works out for them when they start filming again.

Aww damn that sucks. Did they say when they would post the more detailed reasoning or did they just say soon?

Oh, nevermind. They already did. Here's the post.

Quote:
To all JustAcquaintances fans: Sorry to say but the next upload is going to be delayed until at least mid October. We have been having so much trouble trying to film at the location we want. We talked to the owners of the place way back in
May about filming there. They told us that it would be fine, and yet every time everyone would be good to film, we would be told that it wasn't a good time by the person allowing us to film there. It was extremely frustrating to say the least. There were multiple times where were almost ready to shoot somewhere else, but we didn't want to have to completely re-write the episode, thereby ruining our vision. The closest we came to actually filming there was about two or three weeks ago. Everyone was good, and once again we were given an okay by the owner. Then last minute we were told it couldn't happen. Mark, the actor who plays David, was going on a 7 week freelance film shoot in Maine only a few days after so there was no way we could squeeze in a night to film before he left, and he is essential to the scene. He doesn't return until the beginning of October and we hope to film there as soon as we can when he gets back. We didn't want this to happen, nor did we expect it to, so we apologize to all of you guys.

The good news is that we have half of the episode already shot, so as soon as we can get that scene done, we're golden. We've also been working on episodes for what we call "season 2" so we haven't just stopped. In the mean time we would really appreciate it if you checked out some of our videos on our Rise and Shine! youtube account. We even made a first person horror short film we think you guys would really like, and would really appreciate some feedback on. Thank you.


EDIT: Double post. My bad.

okay, well I can wait. I'm glad to see that these guys are people who would most likely not give up on something so I'm really not worried about any delays in video releases so long as they do get out eventually, and to see mention of a "Season two" makes me so happy to know that this is gonna last a decent amount of time
