My advice, have a plan long before you start or it will end up like my vlog.

[lastminutestrategy] Another GREAT thing I want more of is Slendy talking. I also want, like, an entire series that's, like, ONLY FEET. All feet, all the time. No talking, no Slendy, just a camera pointed at the ground as you run. [/lastminutestrategy]

Actual thing I want more of: The sense that He could be right behind you, right in the corner of your eye. More of a paralyzed, confused "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS THING IS" fear than an actual threat. I know that's really vague, and it may sound like "Be like Season 1 of Marble Hornets", but I think most series these days focus a lot more on the characters and their reactions and strategies than they do on the Man Himself. I know this is hard to do, considering how long it's been since a series has pulled it off, but it's one atmosphere that I don't feel like enough people are working at. To clarify, it's not like I don't absolutely adore plot-based Slendervlogs, I just think a great, "WHAT IS THIS" series hasn't come around in a while.

This.
I had a roguh outline of the series made before I posted in this thread. Everything everyone has said on here is more or less in the ballpark of what I have been planning. However I have taken some really awesome ideas from that I plan on using. I know that the creators want to do their own thing but if they would let fans give more input, the results will be fantastic.

Absolutely. I'm basically in the same boat as you.

Not sure where to put post this

But this is definitely more of what I would like to see.

I really like this careful analytical approach to the character as seen through the lens of popular horror.

    The only 'more' I would like to see is originality.
    So many vlogs do the same things. Slenderman is always standing still, slenderman jerks his head as soon as you approach, as soon as you see slenderman you run, coughing, camera distortion, audio distortion, OPERATOR SIGNS. All of these are just annoying when repeated.
    However, I do like puzzles. More puzzles!

I can't remember the name of this now.

Helpful I know.

But back when Cloverfield was coming out. There was this really bizarre online puzzle website that showed up that had these videos and puzzles to solve and it was all very cryptic.

It was a lot of fun and everybody thought it had something to do with Cloverfield, but in the end it just lead to a role playing game. Wish I could remember the name of it.

But yeah puzzles are fun. Wish there were more of them associated with the vlogs.

    Are you, maybe, talking about somethinginthesea? It was for Bioshock. Lots of puzzles. Very fun. Very nerve racking.

Found it!

http://www.mindstormlabs.com/

It was these guys. It looks the puzzles are all gone from the site now but while there were up it was fun. It had to be one of the worse reveals in all of puzzle/ARG history.

I was hoping for a movie or a really complex ARG or something and we got a role playing game.

Trust me I am not bashing role playing games. I've played more hours than I care to admit but man.

So yeah...more puzzles. Great link btw! Now I'm going to waste hours of my life figuring this out.
