The 40 Second Advertisment
This was my first foray into video editing ever. The Idea was a quick miniature commercial timed to 60 seconds or less. This was to keep it short, to the point and to help hide my limitations. It ended up way shorter than I planned.
A History of Inspiration
The House of Torment was begun as a hobby writing project in 2014. It’s inspiration was formulated sometime in 1992 after I had the chance to play the amazing video game “Alone in the Dark”. For years I attempted to make various tributes to the game and each time I failed abysmally. A few years ago after playing one of the “Lone Wolf” game books the gears of logic clicked and I began. What started as a tribute mutated into something darker and sinister. Or perhaps a campy Gothic Hammer Film style production. Either Way I hope you enjoy it.
