My big 2016 project was to create my first Seance. I have spent months and months reading about seances, and then scripting, revising and creating my own seance. I spent so much time on my seance that I decided to record it to show it to my friends from this forum, or other darker forums, to get feedback and hopefully to stimulate other creations. Sometimes I feel isolated in Sydney, and I thought a video would be the best medium for sharing, improving and maybe inspiring others. This is by far my biggest project, and it evolved to become much bigger than I expected.

I recorded my full seance in April and it took me months to edit it. At the start, I only wanted one camera, but then I added another two cameras to make it less static, and then some lights. I ended up asking a videographer to help me with the editing because it became too complicated. He asked me to use a better sound system with a microphone on me and a microphone on the table for the sitter, then... then... this 'movie' became a real monster in my life. I felt like a Hollywood producer (and actor, technical director, writer...). Finally, I am reaching the light at the end of the tunnel and I should finish the editing very soon.

I hope you enjoy this 'teaser', which offers a taste of what the finished product will look like. Enjoy!

Voila

SH, I'm very much looking forward to the complete video! Great! Luc.

Great news Dr. SH! I know you have been working hard on this and look forward to seeing more. Look forward to further discussions on the 'darker forum'.

Brilliant!

Just wonderful! Looking forward to seeing the full video!

This sounds beyond cool. Can't wait!

Congratulations!

Great trailer, really looking forward to the full video!

You have my full attention...I want to see more!

Well done! What a teaser! Would love to experience this in person some time!!

Will you make our chat next week? This is really showing what several of us thought you were creating and I think you have pulled it off.

Thank you guys for your comments and feedback, I appreciate it. I aim to finish editing everything in the next 2-3 weeks... finger cross

Great job! Congratulations for taking on the challenge of such an ambitious project. Can't wait to see the finished product!

I never used Vimeo before but I have to say I really enjoy their details stat about who, where , how people are watching my video since I post it here 3 days ago... it is really interesting.

People who watch this trailer live mostly in US, UK, Canada, France and Australia (in decreasing order).

In US most people watch from California , Missouri (no idea who) and South Carolina...

some people loaded it but did not watch it... not sure why but it appears to be something normal
69% of people watched the full trailer from the 1s second to the last second (which is a compliment)
66% of all people who watched it was on the 1st day of release
55% used a desktop (I am surprise)
23% a tablet
21% a mobile.....

just interesting stats... here the map

I thought it would be interesting for you too in case you want to upload a video and hesitate between Vimeo and Youtube

Wow. I didn't realize you could get this kind of feedback. Pity those that didn't watch till the end as the camera caught a nice reaction from one of your spectators.

Mazel Tov, Dr. SH. I how you can stop in on Friday for our usual session and download to us!

That's awesome!! Well done SH, cant wait for the finished product!

I am finalizing the files... last bit of editing.
The full seance is over an hour!
I am also making a second video of 30min where I cut out some background stories and cut a big portion of the Voodini remote viewing.

Looks like a lot of fun! What lucky friends you have.
Can't wait to see the entire performance.

Fantastic trailer and tease Dr SH!
It is clear how much thought and effort you dedicated and the results are deservedly wonderful...looking forward to the full piece!
An excellent inspiration for thus of us who have lacked the discipline for such commitment to scripting, practice, production and presentation.
Has me humbling myself and questioning my next steps...!
Best thoughts,
Bill ("Doc Ben")
