Any reach of the flashlight issues were purely my fault. SFM gives you the ability to change the maximum distance of a light. I was, as usual still learning when I made this. Another huge problem was this map is in daytime, and to make this all work, I literally turned down the lighting of everything, and supercharged the flash light in game to be extremely bright.
Ah. Well, that aside everything else was really good. Definitely a lot of attention to camera movements for more a realistic first person experience. Plus, there still was ample attention to lighting, especially noticeable with the flickering.
Best SFM short I've seen in a while, mainly because most people who nails the animations and cinematography have a tendency to forget that sound design and sound effects editing also plays a vital part of a short film. And you totally nailed it on both aspects, kudos to you.
This reminds me of an older video that is like a first person slender/hide from the killer it was a tf2 animation Like slender spy or somethig then running from a pyro on turbine All im trying to say is good job And now i cant sleep easy cuz i cant find that vid but atleast your vid is here Loven it
The flashlight seems to have xd eyes because when the Scout almost put the flashlight in his eyes it seemed that he was not blinking, but when he focuses on the '' Slenderman '' xd, I do not know why it's in quotes because I do not know xdxd ... no but seriously when you focus on the '' Slenderman Assumed not even Sebe! I do not say that it is false '' (again the quotes I do not know what happens to me today xd) So it blinks and at my conclusion the flashlight sees Slenderman that's why he blinks and it seems that the flashlight does not parpede the '' Human '' bone to the Scout because he is a normal person so the Flashlight does not flash when he focuses on his face and very good Animation in SFM: P xd
The one thing I notice is the lighting falloff is constant at all ranges. While it's a weak lamp it can still fully illuminate all of the campground from the bridge. I'm guessing it's just a limitation of the source engine. Have you looked into any workarounds?
WOAH!!! this puts paranormal activity to shame man, this was absolutely fantastic! I loved how it didn't use any voices and just let you suck in the environment around you, it was truly fantastic. I was shocked to the core when slender man first appeared, this is really one of the best tf2 machinimas I've seen ever.
I'm a diehard Slender fan and this is really good! Good jumpstarts. In the end, it was like he was just standing there and saying, "Boo!" I wish there was more animation of Slender in the games.
Unfortunately, the link to the Alternate Ending for this video no longer works. Even so, this video takes me back to the good old days of when I first used the Xbox 360’s TH-cam app.
I see him at 1:36 when Scout turns around after touching the page. If you pause at the right moment, you may see a blurred image of Slender standing here in front of the trees. Nice video you did there. Keep it up. :)
There should be a video like this with each class, showing what happens to each of them after the after (ex: video of Sniper and Slenderman, and during the video you see scout's mangled dead body) and as you get through the characters, the last ones are more smart and live longer, but whether the last character escapes or almost escapes but dies too is up to you.
I could other spend hours animating every movement with intention and patience, or just wimp out buy a couple of Kinects and have them do all the work for me. I like animating. ANIMATING, not having a Kinect animate FOR ME. -Rant-mode off
Very well made, my only gripe is that the Scout is more talkative, not to mention that most people make audible sounds when they're frightened or scared.
Very nice. The animation was great, and I had many heart jumps. The only criticism I have is with the ending part (3:07 and on.) It just seemed a little anti-climatic, with it taking a bit too long for the camera to fade to static. Other than that, I love it a lot. Keep up the great work!
Machinima is the use of real-time 3D computer graphics rendering engines to create a cinematic production. Most often, video games are used to generate the computer animation. Maybe I should just replace "Machinima" with "Animation"
oh god this is scary, the first time scout see's slendy I felt a shock of horror go down my spine and my heart was pumpin' like crazy, I still feel it pumpin' hard
Amazing job on this video. Very cinematic, great animation and sound! 2:45 made me piss my pants! But anyways, really nice job on this video! I hope to see more videos like this!
I won't rush you. Unless a year has passed, then I would flip out on you. It'd be fantastic if you did it like a series. I don't care how long it takes. It'd be so awesome and great
For a scout he sure does walk slowly
no idot
No reply's ill change that
2 years later and I can't get over how fluid that movement from :36 to :38 is (when he spins the flashlight)

In all honesty, this Animation is really well done. The timing and sound effects are perfect!

Thank god he wasn't a heavy, lol
If he was a heavy he would beat the crap outta slender
And if he was wearing the Tough Guy's Toque he'd give Slender Mann a Sandvich and make friends.
1:34 you see the slender ?

This was my first Source Filmmaker animation that i watched....

Slender looks like a sumo wrestler at the end

If you plan to make another alternate ending have the slender man take out the tentacles in disturbing slow mo, that would be sick
this is just 👌
That was fantastic. Great job! Sound design was excellent
This is absolutely amazing! It would be fricking awesome to see this from Heavy's point of view or Medic. Never the less, still just amazing work :D
Lol slendy's like: "come at me bro!"
11 years later...
I was almost expecting the scout to yell: "SUPRIZE MUDA FUKA!!"
I see him at 1:36 when Scout turns around after touching the page. If you pause at the right moment, you may see a blurred image of Slender standing here in front of the trees.
Nice video you did there. Keep it up. :)
I was waiting for someone do do this... I knew it would happen eventually xD Hahaha great job, really awesome and atmospheric.
Very good! I like the smooth motions, build up, and anticipation that you use.
This is the first best slender animation ever
Normally I don't like Slender in the slightest...but...this is just too good. I have to like it.
would be creepier if it was shrek
okay.
+Daniel Antony "If"
Wow this is a great sfm film and the parts when scout turns and slender is there made me jump.
I think you did a Epic job on this animation IT was so realistic.
why is this made out of 100% pure awesomeness?
When scout went to that cave I was like, "Oh he's not there, OH SHIT!!!
That actually scared me more than fan-made,yet good looking films...great job....D:
Nice, really great atmosphere created

i love your work just the amount of work you put in really pays off!!

Very good work sir, smooth animation, perfect first person view, scary atmosphere.
There is nothing to say, thanks for sharing this :)
Excellent video, scared the shit outta me from the start to the bridge.

This is pretty good for an SFM!
Great movements bro...This is epic
This is impressive!!! Good job!!! Wow!!! You actually had me believing the movements!!! Wow!!!
freaking amazing! please make with the other classes!
not hating on your work or anything this is really good but just saying the last jumpscare in the cave was a bit predictable hehe

1:36 had the earphones on volume 10 and that scared me lol
that's atmosphere of Slenderman(and screamers)
damn dude, your good at this
dude that was so flipping awsome you made it to were i wanted to play slender
Hah, I like how he animated it too.
How many people are going to freakin' steal my video. Thanks for telling me, but I can't really do anything about it.
Scout broke the world record: the longest time to stare at the slenderman.
WOW , Extremely dense animation!
I really like the way this video was made. Keep it up dude. ; )
I couldn't help to notice but you have the best youtube username out there! :D
Great work designer
Such beautiful animation
oh god this is scary, the first time scout see's slendy I felt a shock of horror go down my spine and my heart was pumpin' like crazy, I still feel it pumpin' hard
Seriously Scout is the best class but he does kind off fit in with the funny sort of scenes like this but really you sould of used heavy!!
"Slap my hand!"
Perfect.
Amazing job on this video. Very cinematic, great animation and sound! 2:45 made me piss my pants! But anyways, really nice job on this video! I hope to see more videos like this!
good job and also to survive the trick is to go against instinct and never look behind.
No way! You're also the guy who made this!? Wow, dude, you're awesome
2:24 Scared the shit out of me. This video fucking brilliant, just awesome
Never buy life insurance from the Slender man. I am speaking from experience.
I usually make animations based on other game only if I extensively play them. I've already got lots of other stuff on my plate right now anyways.
this is why u never go camping or sleeping in the middle of the forest
HOLY S*** THAT WAS EPIC
Loved it!
Finally someone who didnt pick up a page
He could have run faster
Adrenaline....
Ya he could
2:25 He starts running.
ya
the scout could have run faster
Amazing work. Really nice!
Very nicely done!
I won't rush you. Unless a year has passed, then I would flip out on you. It'd be fantastic if you did it like a series. I don't care how long it takes. It'd be so awesome and great
Use the ToneMapScale on your camera setting and turn it down.
Holy shit this is creepy. Creepier than the game. Nice job!
You are an awesome animator, +1 subscriber.
Awesome work!
Nice job man.
Nicely done!
this is really good!! nice video, like a film^^
damn nice mann! ;P nice anim + thinking!
Oh man this scared the Shit Out of me. NICE JOB!!
True, even without it's flamethrower the Pyro would still find a way to get the job done.
The animations are so great! How did you do them?
Really good work!
DUDE THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I EVER SEEN :D
That was awesome
At least the Scout can RUN, not slowly creep away with the speed of a snail...
thats amazing i love tf2 and i only played slender acouple times they both awesome what made you think of making this
How did ya make the map dark? Can't seem to find anything to do et. I feel like a noob ;-;
I'll try it, but I'm still inspired to do Unreal Tournament action stuff.
now that was a good one
Really awesome animation! gonna make my friend watch this, she's terrified of Slender man hehe :)
Huh, that was very creepy. Insanely well made, though.
thank you and this video is amazing
Fine Job!
Awesome work, as usual :D
