[video=youtube;ojsP0UiIebs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojsP0UiIebs[/video] We've made and posted a few of these already, the last being our commercial for Vagisent- the feminine spray. This one is the longest but I think funniest and almost most believable looking sketch! We spent a lot of time on making the audio quality match that of the video. In the past sometimes they looked too glitchy but had perfect audio. Sometimes the audio was too glitchy and the video to clear. I think this one found the happy medium. Let us know what you think, please! -Kevin
Tragic..I feel for that family.
Amazing. Would be funny if it was slowed down slightly to simulate the stretched tape.
Are those orange flashes meant to be light leaks? Looks more like a bad TV than as if it's playing off VHS.
oh god the ending what
Do a local news station program from the 80s with the annoying generic yellow text they always used.

Oh god that ear-piercing audio is taking me back to educational videos at school.. great job man.
This is some amazing stuff.
How are you guys doing all the colored noise and such? Whenever I do a VHS-type effect I always make the colors bleed, then blur it, then sharpen the blurred footage way too much. Then I add bars on the sides and a glitchy bar at the bottom. Do you guys just use real tapes?
pretty well made

Often, the videos are put on VHS, recaptured and then put on tape multiple more times. To get the glitches and noise we bang and hit the VCR at just the right moment. We are then left with multiple VHS captures and edit those together for a final VHS'd master. Almost every glitch and jump is 100 percent intentional and hand made.

Your gigantic pe- oh god not the thoughts again!!!!
Is that a hand gun at 1:02?
Looks like shit. I of course, mean that in a good way
Who provided the typical British female documentary narrator voice? It's a nice touch.

The British voiceover really adds something. The vaginal spray video you guys did sounded like it was just one of your friends doing the narration, which took it down a notch in believability. This one feels legit, strange, but legit. You have to keep making these. You guys are on to something.
