NEW HypeO! Dead To The World (the story of the antichrist)

There it is everyone. My magnum opus. This is what I've been doing for two years.

I urge everyone to PLEASE read the lyrics. You don't have to read the notes (they're all indulgent wankery) but read the lyrics. Watch the video a couple of times before forming an opinion as it takes a couple watches to let it all soak in.

The video is 25 minutes and 18 seconds long. It is NOT a music video as you've come to expect them. Please know this before watching. Get comfy, grab the popcorn, clear your head, turn out the lights and fucking CRANK IT.

The video is also 525 megabytes. At the risk of sounding condesending, I ask people to not worry abut the compression, its as good as it gets. After watching the video, hopefully it will become clear as to why its so huge.

This video is a story about the antichrist. Its dark, violent, grotesque, brutal, and shouldn't be watched by people under 17. Don't let the little sister watch this.

I'm so excited to be showing it to all you guys. Give it a chance, happy downloading, and tell me what you think!

BEST VIDEO EVER

Beo, I've got to give it to you; this video is awesome. If I've ever got time, I'm going to give you a ONE MILLION WORD OPINION!!! It will be the greatest, longest, most pretentious opinion ever, but you'll love it. :-*

When I first saw this video I thought it was a brilliant collaboration of 9 people working together, but to know it was made by one person is just amazing!

You're the chief dude. =) Too bad it is pretty freaky so it won't appeal to so many people. =(

They say horror videos are imposible...

They say that originalality is dead...

I have a feeling you're about to prove a lot of people wrong.

And I couldn't think of a better editor to do it.

Thanks so much for the comments people. I'm glad you're enjoying it. I'm really happy you think its original pen pen, because that was my intention.

Very very awesome editing, particularly for its length. I wasn't particularly SCARED during any of it, though I really liked the Narative. Didn't like the music so much, but this is one of those that's just too damn awesome for me to care. Beyond the music more or less sucking, I don't know why this wouldn't appeal to a lot of people, it's more or less got everything you need for an excellent... well, I think it almost deserves it's own genre. Well, I'll just call it a "storytelling video".

What's revolutionary here isn't the editing so much as the way everything is put together so very awesomely.

<<I wanted to create something larger than life, something that could grab a jaded audience by the balls and not let them go until its over. >>

I'm afraid you're going to have to go for a different set of rounded protrusions if you'd like my attention... :wink:

I'll be downloading this on my first opportunity...right after I figure out why I can't get rid of the DDR Project, despite a complete restart of the computer and no applications using the file...

So, yeah! I've got your back...soon.
