Outlast Trailer

The main theme that I wanted to build into this sequence was the idea of analog horror, so a lot of the footage used in the sequence relates to VHS style analog, box TV’s, and glitch style transitions. There’s also a bit of experimental footage of different colored inks such as black and red. The inks were then diluted with rubbing alcohol and mineral oil to create a distorted movement.

The entire sequence may be quick, but it allows the viewer or fans to gather subtle hints littered throughout the piece related to its predecessor. The title for this sequence will not only attract viewers but will hopefully attract fans of the franchise who continue to unearth the mysteries that lie within the story. The overall development of this sequence will not only stay true to the original, but it will create its own narrative and reimagining of the terrifying and wonderful game known as Outlast.
