Dudeman121

Hello everybody. I'm currently making a series that I hope will be pretty good.

I have some pretty insane ideas in my head, and I'm hoping I can make my Slenderman as murderous as possible. 

I only uploaded one video as of now, but I have tons of ideas up ahead. Oh yes, and I'm most likely not going to give spoilers about future videos. Sorry.

My first video is very un-interesting, but I did show some stuff that will be very important in my later videos. Oh yes, and I'm sorry for sounding very stupid in the video, I wasn't really knowing what to see word for word, so I ended up sounding a little stupid... Whatever.

Oh god, the evil vertical iPhone video has appeared.

I know, I know. I was too lazy to open in Sony Vegas and fix it, so have fun with that. The next video will be fixed, and so will most of them most likely.

Dudeman121 isn't exactly the best title of the year.  I can't really comment on the story so far since there it isn't really started yet, but it could be good.

The vertical iPhone videos are appearing again? I thought we got rid of vertical iPhone videos in the great cleansing?

I don't mean to sound like an elitist, but you can't really use laziness as a reason not to fix this. Your first video is, well, the first video and the thing everyone see's when they start. When you leave the first video in bad quality it just leaves a bad feeling with the person watching that will only discourage them from watching more of your videos. Like I said this hasn't gotten far and could become great, but if you want the series to really good you shouldn't rush videos or get lazy on them. Thats what happened with goomba771. I hope I don't come off too condescending, but its about average so far.

Oh, don't worry. I do understand my first video is pretty bad. I also felt like my acting seemed a little bas. I felt like I was too silent at times anyways. I tried harder on my next video and I actually did some editing. Here's my new video. Oh, and the glitches were actually from audacity. Search databending with audacity if you want to see how I did my effect.

I´m sorry that i have to ruin your theory that "bad" first videos would discourage people from watching on, but honestly most of the series that i have seen in the verse (including the big 5) have started out with not so good first videos and i still wanted to keep on watching and i´m overall in most of the cases glad i did so.
Personally i think that it normally needs at least 3-8 videos into it to see if it goes into a "good" direction that i like (and often also to really kick off with the story and finding their own style).
And honestly, i think it´s not to important for a slenderseries to look as professional as possible and it adds more authenticity to the atmosphere to give it an "amateur-look" sometimes. You also have to concider that not everyone around here is a filming student or has the (material - or money-) capabilities to make everything instant-professional from the start (not even filming students can do this directy).

I thought the second video was a lot better. The acting was good enough and the editing was good. The distortion was done well, and for the most part this was a much better video then the first one.

I thought it was a lot better also. I got a very good video idea, but it will include the Slenderman, so I don't want to show it quite yet. It would also be the first appearance.
