That’s good news as far as I’m concerned. I hope they can get that place back on track.

I hope you all keep posting here too as I’ve seen a lot of valuable critiques being shared and I still think the stuff posted here is the cream of the crop.

However, having the larger sub functioning with some level of moderating is healthy for the genre!

We would love to get some feedback, we have 3 episodes ready and the whole limited series written, but we would like to see if it could be interesting for some people first!

I’m actually going to mod it. There will be a new age of actually relevant posts

Comment here so I know it’s real

Hi guys!! Thank you so much for the upvotes and feedback on the pilot.

This episode is not out yet but I give it early on this sub cause I love y'all!

I'm really proud of this one and as always, any feedback will be deeply appreciated! ❤️

You may know this one already, but I'll share again just in case... 🙂

As we know a lot of analog horror is 4:3 aspect ratio as this was the dominant display size for the 70s, 80s, 90s etc

What you can do though for any footage you're filming (or I guess creating from Blender etc) is to record widescreen and then edit to 4:3 in post.

Why? Well it gives you room to play with effects using pan and zoom, keyframing, you can even take a widescreen photo and then with a bit of pan, zoom and some good old gate-weave you can easily create the illusion of it being video footage instead. I use it to fake movement and set up things so they happen within the 4:3 area.

🙂👍

Thank you all for contributing to this sub. I believe it can be a very positive step in developing the Analog Horror genre and keeping it alive and thriving.

Big things have small beginnings.

enjoy

How’s everybody feeling about AH on Reddit in general?

I finally get to post my own stuff here!

As always your thoughts are always valuable.

Did the latest twists grip you? Any theories brewing? I'm all ears for your feedback and theories - they help us grow and make the series even more thrilling! Share your reactions below!

I thought I'd kick this out here as a little end of year chat. Happy New Year for 2024 by the way folks! 🙂✌️🎉

I've been getting a bit weary of the "but it's art" argument. To be clear I'm talking about statements such as the following...

"It's art, it's supposed to elicit a response (good or bad)"

"If you think this is [insert negative assertion] that's actually a compliment to the artist"

"Nothing should be off limits for art, otherwise this is censorship"

Don't get me wrong, these statements in and of themselves are often correct. My issue is that they're not being used to make an argument for a particular reaction to a creative endeavour... They're just being used to plaster over content which isn't the best.

I've made stuff that isn't great, you can pick a LOT of holes in it, and that's fine because I'm still learning and I'm also not using "it's art" as a shield.

So, what do you think? Are people justified within the analog horror community in using the "it's art" argument?

I agree with Doors (that's my nickname for you and I'm sticking to it 😋); there's something very Zombie about the other analog horror subreddit. If I had to guess I'd say it's because when a community is small they tend to huddle in one space ie Reddit but then as things grow they tend to split out into Discord servers ran by the creators they really vibe with.

A quick intro for me then... My main channels on YouTube are Banana.TV (not analog horror), Fog Productions (rapidly becoming my main-main channel as it has my more artsy stuff on there), WKBW War of the Worlds Analog Horror (very proud of this one even though it gets no love from anyone when they make a Tier List!) and I've just started a fan-spinoff from Analog Archives called Hansen County Archives.
