Subject: Slender Man Animation? Sun Nov 04, 2012 5:49 pm
For this topic I have a few questions, so let me break it down a little.
Would anyone be interested in a Slender Man Vlog that was an animated series or would it lose all its appeal because it would be obvious that it was fake?
If there is interest in this idea, is there anyone who is interested in collaborating, maybe supplying the animation and working together to create such a thing?
If I did end up creating something like this, what advice would you give to not make it suck and do the mythos injustice?

I have mixed feelings on this. On one hand, a animated series could be pretty good, depending on the style. Normal animation might be good, or japanese anime style would be kind of strange. On one hand there have been disturbing anime's that were creepy (higurashi. Not even once). On the other hand, the sense of realism is what makes most vlogs scary. If its animation, then it takes away from the immersion because it doesn't look real. If it had a good story, it would probobly be more focused on story and characters then the horror, because it just wouldn't be as scary. We all know marble hornets is fake, but the acting like its real is part of its horror. An animation is about as obvious fakeness would make it a lot less scary IMO

SLENDERMANIMATION
I think it would be OK, so long as you made it clear from the outset that you were not trying to create an atmosphere of realism, it would set people at ease. Could be a good opportunity to mix some comedy into the slendersphere.

I am sure a thread on this exists. But just in case I'm wrong, I'll say that I'm all for it, especially if the animation is solid.

Don't tell him Rake![/dads army quote]
Sorry, the joke had to be made. I think the fresh prince of slendair works. I'm going to edit in the theme tune in a minute...

Now this is a story, all about how my life got flipped - turned upside down, And i'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, I'll tell you howI became the prince of a town called Slend-Air
In West Philadelphia, born an' raised, on the playground is where i spent mosta my days, Chillin out, maxin', relaxin' all cool, An' all stalking some G-guys outside of the school, When a couple o' kids who were up to no good, Started makin' trouble in my neighbourhood, I killed eight little kids and my mom got scared, She said 'You're movin with your auntie and uncle in Slend-Air!'
I begged and pleaded with her day after day,but she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket I put my walkman on and said 'I´d might as well kickin' First class, 'Yo, this ain't bad' drinkin orange juice out of a champange glass 'Is this what the people of Bel Air live like?' 'Hmm.. this might be alright!' The way I´d hear the percy, boots white and all I had to sit as I have a place of they just in this school cat 'I don´t think so', 'I see what i get there' I hope they´re prepared for the Prince of Slend-Air!
Well I, tha plane landed and when I came out there was a dude look like a cop standin' there with my name out 'I ain´t trying to get arrested yet, 'I just got here' I sprang with the quickness like light has disappeared
I whistled for a cab and when i came near, The license plate said 'Fresh', And had dice in the mirror, If anything i could say that this cab was rare, But I thought 'Nah, forget it - Yo, home to Slend-Air!'
I pulled up to the house at bout seven or eight, I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo home, smell ya later!' I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there! To sit on my throne as the prince of Slend-Air!
sup in the hood?

Yeah, it could be like a regular one or you could have a whole set of new opportunities like you could set it based around a small girl and her parents not understanding her drawings and this "Man" she says comes to visit her. She could be taken to a psychiatrist.
By focusing more on the story you could create endless possibilities that would be very hard to create using real actors and the limited supplies most of us have. Yes, immersion would be lost but new avenues of fear could be explored.

Someone needs to contact the guy making that slenderman movie. I think this thread will improve his movie more then he could ever dream.
