    Got them from here: https://blog.shootinggalleryasia.com/2015/09/22/the-coming-horrors-of-the-blood-moon-exposed-by-sebastian-siah/

     

     

    As prophesied since ancient times, the blood moon eclipses and all hell breaks loose on earth. Blood gushes forth from the moon and the spirits of the underworld come to torment the living, setting in motion a chain of evil.

    Crawlers of the under earth lure the curious. Messages from the dead haunting cloud the minds of the living as they try to run away from the blood invading their sanity. Fear-induced reactions cause mayhem as the living discover secrets from the offended dead a little too late to be spared their lives.

    We go loco with live action in 3D animated environments as well as sordid settings like abandoned HDBs, late night MRT settings and sacred land of the dead. The concept of the blood moon and magic in the special effects make-up was done by the team from Universal Studios Singapore, with Reel Loco Productions conceptualizing and producing the shoot, campaign assets and characters. From concept to post production, we had fun working with the Universal Studios team our third year running, coming up with characters drawn from Asian context in modern Singapore.

  2. Universal Orlando - Door Number Two / Jack is back - (2015) :45 (USA)


    The legendary Jack The Clown makes his triumphant (and twisted) return to rule over Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights in this frightening online film from TM Advertising and director Andreas Roth. The makeup on his lovely sidekick is gloriously creepy, nicely done, makeup artists.

     

    Heralded as “the nation’s premiere Halloween event,” Halloween Horror Nights puts visitors in the middle of the some of the most iconic and intense moments in horror film history, with this year’s 25th anniversary promising to be the most glorious – and goriest – incarnation to date. In this we're playing a little game of which door shall open first, the one with Freddie? The one with the Zombies? The one with Jason? Looks like Jack always wins this game, no matter what.

  4. Id rather this thread not derail into conversations regarding the logistics of the film studios and theme parks; realistically I don’t see the studios being interested enough to make a film based on characters like Jack, Albert, Mary or Julian. (And lets not even get into the Bloody Mary licensing thing; lets they say they somehow resolved it).

     

    instead I want this thread to talk about the QUALITY of HHN Films. Instead of being discussions of “can they make films on the Icons”, it should be more “Should they” and “could it be good?”. 
     

    Lets say for a scenario Universal for whatever reason decided to make films, shows or whatever media on the Icons and and other characters like Cindy and Eddie. What do you think would be the right way to do these characters? Should be standalone? Shared Universe like the Marvel and DC Cinematic Universes?

    Hollywood has soundstages, as it is an operating movie studio.  And I'm not talking about wrestling events.  In the pre-2006 days they used these, and the results were very good.

    They have done a couple of houses in a backlot SS, and this has been very disappointing.

    They had the opportunity to do AWIL in a soundstage, but they chose to put AVP in it instead.  Creative decision, but AWIL suffered greatly, being put in the smaller JP queue.

    So what else did Hollywood choose to put in the backlot SS?  Black freaking Sabbath.  A 3D house that could have gone anywhere.  What a waste.

    Stranger Things also got to be in a different soundstage, and of course it looked incredible as it was a headliner property.  

    As someone who doesn’t understand how the budget works for the events; do you know why Hollywood is so cheap-looking nowadays? I would think since the event is next to an operating film studio; they would, you know, not have as much black walls.

     

    BTW, Wasn’t Freddy’s house in Hollywood 2007 and 2008 just a repeat of 2006’s Asylum but with Freddy in it?

    Meet the Sisters of Evil...three scary ladies brought to you from the
    depths of Universal Studio¹s Singapore.


    This year we were honored to produce the USS Halloween Horror Nights promo
    commercials. That consists of 4 spots, one for each character and one for all three.


    The brief was to depict as true-to-life as possible, what visitors would 
    experience in the theme park during the Halloween Horror Nights in 
    Resorts World Sentosa, Singapore.
    Three videos were designed to each portray a thematic/character’s origin. 
    The characters were Maiden of the Opera, The Daughter of the Undead & 
    The Crone of the Forrest. 

     

    These commercials were a real "trick n’ treat" to produce. It was a treat 
    because we were able to access to the Universal Studios Singapore’s expert 
    costume and make-up team that did an impressive job enhancing the characters to life. 
    Tricky because alot of testing and CG animation forethought had to be belaboured to
    find the best locations and set design them accurately in order to film with the right angles 
    and lighting to make the "horrific" effect heightened. On top of that, all four spots 
    were filmed over one 24 hour period! 

     

    Through all the hard work and long hours we were able to deliver and
    exciting experience for the viewer. We hope you enjoyed your trip to USS
    Halloween Horror Nights this year and we hope our commercials prepared you
    for the frightening experience.

  8. Looking at the Director years of 2003, 2006, and 2011; his role in the events overseas keeps getting worse.

     

    Orlando 2003

     

    Was present in the marketing (including creepy commercials featuring the jester and bathtub victims), had a show called Infestation and a house called All Nite Die In. However Infestation was just Fear Factor, and the house wasn’t really dedicated to him, it was based on Freddy, Jason, Leatherface, and Michael Myers. 
     

    Hollywood 2006

     

    Adverts unnecessarily reused a lot of the 2003 content, and in the event itself he only had the Terror Tram, although it was better than All Nite Die In in that it revolved around his “films”. However I saw from some videos that he only appeared in-person at the very end before the Mummy’s tomb; but it was too dark to see where he was.

     

    Singapore 2011


    Just a single photo-op. What was the point of using him as an icon?

    Airing throughout Florida, the commercial debuted on Sept. 30 and concludes on Halloween night. Amanda Evans directed the spot via Tight, Santa Monica, for agency davidandgoliath (dng), Los Angeles.

    I could only figure out "Awakening" from this vid. What media/link are you referencing? I'll take a look at it.

     

     

     

     

    Nice ID on this! I never paid attention to the audio in this clip. Looks like "Pencil Neck" is what plays before "Epiphanic Evelyn". Wish the full opening scaremony was available. There's definitely some tracks playing based on the brief snippets of the Caretakers entrance and exit (wouldn't doubt it's more HoHH music haha).

     

    Around 1:00-1:30. I figured it sounded similar.

  11. For the sake of it I’m translating the whole thing; so I’ll just highlight the sentence I’m most interested:

    COME INTO THE MIRROR, MY DEAR…THIS WON’T HURT A BIT

    Halloween Horror Nights Website Pulls Guests into the World of Bloody Mary,
    Long Before They’ll Meet Her in Person 

    Orlando, FL (September 9, 2008) – Chanting her name lures you through the mirror. A mesmerizing, swirling portal guides you through each world. You explore – nervous of what you might find, unsure of where Mary is taking you. Your own heartbeat quickens, but you can’t seem to draw yourself away from the spinning vortex. Did something just blink at you? 
     

    This is the Halloween Horror Nights 18 website and it’s unlike anything Universal Orlando has done before. Universal set out to redefine Halloween Horror Nights this year, and needed a website capable of communicating the new scope and level of detail for the event. Reflections of Fear, an application on the website, offers a multisensory, interactive experience through this year’s event. For the first time ever, users can sit at their computers and navigate through what they’ll experience at Halloween Horror Nights 18. 

     

    “The website heightens the anticipation of coming to Halloween Horror Nights 18 by delivering pieces and parts of the event to the consumer at home,” said T.J. Mannarino, director of entertainment for Universal Orlando. “What people are seeing online, they will experience at this year’s event.” 

     

    The application features over 60 hand drawings and about 200 individual files that create an illusion similar to a flip book. The files come together to simulate movement through each world of Urban Legends, Fears, Myths, Tales and Nightmares. The audio behind the imagery exists on three different levels: the general background music, atmospherics (i.e., glass shattering, thunder, horses whinnying, etc.) and sound bites (i.e., Bloody Mary, a spaceship alert, classroom chatter, etc.). 

     

    Consumers can navigate through the Reflections of Fear application, purchase tickets to the event, learn more about Halloween Horror Nights 18 and view a sneak peek of this year’s television commercial at http://www.halloweenhorrornights.com/orlando. 

     

    Regular admission to Halloween Horror Nights is $69.99 plus tax. Get tickets online, at the Universal Studios Florida front gate or by calling 888-HORROR-7.

    End of transcript.

     

    when I had a computer, I remember going through the archived 2008 website here and the artwork (I guess concept art) was not accessible. Reaper’s 2008 audio mix contained some of the website audio (I believe it was the Fractured Tales music box, Dead Exposure zombies effect, and Interstellar Terror) but not all. I know the Bloody Mary sound effect was not there. Is there anyone here who saved those files?
