LG15 : Outbreak Episode 1 Webseries Review

The first episode has launched and LG15 is once again an active part of the web series world. Outbreak does not have a powerhouse opening like Resistance or The Last, but ventures more into the “hi, guess what, I’m vlogging” territory once explored by the original LG15 Bree and later by Kate in KateModern. Despite that, YouTube already has a long list of positive comments and it seems everyone is very eager to welcome this new ‘vlogger’ into the internets and pretend she’s a real person. Which she of course is, except, uh… you know what I mean.

Her name is Crystal O’Brian, she’s cute (aren’t they all?), loves art (such as it is), knows how to use Mace (so did the 9/11 hijackers), slams doors on possible suitors (I feel your pain, brother) and for some reason moved into a new city to start a new life (Squee! Intrigue!). She has a Twitter pagea Facebook page and uses the name of ArtGirl47 (AG47?) on the lg15.com messageboards, and those will serve as a platform for fans to explore the puzzles and clues that will no doubt be released upon a very suspecting viewership.

Oh, did I mention at the beginning there may be some spoilers in this article? Darnit, too late. Well, there will be more episodes here on VisiwebTV. We’ll try again.

LG15 : Outbreak Trailer

We had been warned, and here it is. The trailer of yet another installment in the LG15 epic.

We’ve mentioned it before, but LG15: Outbreak was the third pilot submission for EQAL’s second LG15: The Show Is Yours contest, where the original creators of LG15 outsourced the continuation of their epic to fans.

Was that a good idea? If LG15: The Last, the previous fan-created installation is any indication, then yes. The trailer looks simple but promising. It is after all a fan-based creation and just about a notch below the usual EQAL creations where quality is concerned, but that never stopped a good story. The series will launch on January 11th, 2010 and VisiowebTV will be there, front row. And if we are, so will you.

On an amusing side note, on the trailer’s YouTube message board there is a buzz (and by extension on Tubefilter who should have known better) about a mysterious whispering voice towards the end of the trailer, and someone even uploaded a backwards version of that section to decipher the possible meaning and it seems hundreds of fans have been playing the recording back and forth trying to decipher it. Unfortunately there is no hidden message. The voice says “Revostock” which as most editors know is the company Revostock.com’s way of watermarking their template stock audio products. Must be a doodoo by the trailer editor, using stock music that still had an audio watermark. Oops. You can go the Revostock site and check out some of their stock music. The samples all have that mysterious voice.

In fact, much of the trailer’s effects seem as if someone had made extensive use of the creator resources links collection here on VisiowebTV, which is actually quite commendable…
