Drones on Fox News

I'd thought the whole drone thing was dead, left to decay in the abyss of the anonymous web, not so. Two private investigators are on the case, trying to track down a pole in hopes of finding the master mind behind these photos.

The Los Angeles Times has a great article about the two investigators efforts and now Fox News is getting in on the action.

If I were the person who created these photos, I don't know if I'd be worried or excited by the fact that I had P.Is after me.

I sure hope they find the pole, it's become interesting again.

STRANGE CRAFT music video

Just a quick post, have a pretty busy work week ahead. The video below is inspired by the whole strange craft ordeal, it's a music video with CG animations of the crafts which look pretty good, it was uploaded to youtube by the person who made the video in the link above, if you click through to youtube on the video below the description has a few links you may want to check out.

Full Kentucky UFO video now on youtube

Jeromy Staggs the man who filmed the Lunar Eclipse UFO video in Kentucky has placed the full clip on youtube, now without all the news bits.

There's a few things that bother me about it, but I'll reserve judgment until I look at it more.

Pretty cool of him to put it up on youtube I think.

Boo Post - Dogman Bigfoot and Drones

Sooo what was paranormal, well the last few days?

Haven't done one of these Boo Posts in awhile, I figured out I was doing them because I was lazy and I'm feeling that way now, to much Master Chief dissing the PS3 if you know what I mean.

Anyhoo, I spent most of the weekend at my brothers house, playing you guessed it Halo 3, pretty good game, but more of the same, with prettier graphics. When I got online again there were a few interesting stories that a lot of other sites had covered.

The Gable Film thing seemed to take off a little with Cryptomundo sinking its claws into the whole thing, still interesting stuff, I don't know if I'm more into the Internet drama or the seeing of strange things.

There was also the story of the two Chattanoogan men who captured Bigfoot on video pretty much by accident, the article says they will release the video once copyright has been established, but judging by the amount of interest on the net, they should be careful with the likes of youtube being so easy to use.

I was kind of shocked by how this one ended up, the Kentucky Eclipse UFO video, after watching it again I can see what people are seeing, a UFO Drone caught on video, that's right the story is alive again, well maybe not. Seen a few discussions and blog posts about it, but I only have this one handy at the mo, a thread on THoTH forum.

I'm sure there were a few more interesting ones, but I was to lazy to bookmark them, I'll probably come across them in the next few days anyhow.

Boo Post - Drones, Halo3, Big Birds amd more

So... What was paranormal today. or what I was interested in today more like it.

Critique on the Drone/Strange Craft Photographs - A write up about the drone photos with some photos showing some fishy results.

Big-bird encounter one for the books - An eyewitness account of a pair of giant birds with a wing span of 20 feet. Nice story, really got my imagination going, I've always loved the idea of giant birds, I even did my high school design project about a local legend of a giant eagle, presumably based on the Haast Eagle.

Children as young as five to be fingerprinted in schools - This just doesn't seem right at all.

Gettysburg ghost stories - Home of one of my favorite ghost videos. I didn't know it was such a ghostly kind of place, I mean the Ghost Tours part.

WEEKLY WORLD NEWS to shut up shop? - I used to love this paper as kid, I used to read it wondering why I hadn't seen any of the stories on the nightly news, I was totally sucked in.

Halo3 shorts from Weta - When I first heard that Peter Jackson was set to produce a Halo movie I was pretty psyched, but then I heard it was canned. I can't believe I missed this though, it looks like Weta are still connected to Halo in a way, supplying props and supplies. Check out the teaser for the trailer below.

Strange drones as a viral campaign?

For awhile now people have been suggesting that this whole strange craft drone thing is some kind of viral advertising campaign, a few of which I saw suggested were for halo 3 and the Transformers movie. Nothing I've seen of Halo 3 suggests that it is anyway related to the drones, Transformers has come and I haven't come across anything to say it relates to the drones apart from maybe the Cloverfield trailer shown before the movie.

Which is pretty interesting because this Cloverfield(working title) movie is cloaked in secrecy, no one seems to know exactly what the movie is about, but as with Transformers theirs more than meets the eye. The trailer for Cloverfield seems to have clues in it, as a result people have been lead to this site slusho.jp, which is a really annoying site, but there may be more clues on it to lead to somewhere else on the web.

Another mysterious online brain teaser is ethanhaaswasright.com, the characters that can be found here seem very similar to the drone markings, but they aren't the same, after completing the puzzles presented you get an email sign-up form that tells ya to check back on the 1st of august. As with cloverfield people have also been able to find sites through some Internet detective work such as this site ethanhaaswaswrong, but maybe that's just someone trying to mooch of it.

Both of these cryptic promotions are very compelling and I think they suit the drone thing well, but I haven't seen anything definitive to link them to each other.

The thing with the drones is that you have these witnesses with photos, then you have someone who seems credible come forward with documents that kind of prove that what these witnesses saw were real, they just seem to real to be true. If the whole thing is real, well then, we're gonna have some great technology to play with.

So if the drone thing is a viral campaign, what can learn from Cloverfield and ethanhaaswasright, if it is similar maybe there are clues that people haven't been looking for, could be a sign of a failed viral campaign if no one is looking, does the evidence lead anywhere else? where could it go from here? could it be just a flat out hoax or could it be real?

I don't know, the drone thing is getting a little stagnant now, which could indicate that it isn't a campaign because with the other two they lead you to a point that keeps ya on your toes, you know there's more and you gotta figure it out, with the drones no such luck.

Drone Sightings History by DrDil

Just came across this pretty cool thing, it's embedded just below, it's a PDF embed, that's new to me.

Anyway it looks like a complete history of the whole Drone Photo thing, it starts from the Chad Drones up until the Isaac Caret Documents. I was trying to do something similar with this post "UFO Drone photos inspired Videos" but it just looks messy.

I think you can download the PDF from the embed below, if not here's the link to the site that hosts it Drone Sightings History by DrDil.



I have a theory about what this whole drone thing is about, but I'll have to look into it a little more before I share my findings.

New drone photo with a ground unit.

UFO Casebook has a new drone photo, this time though there's some kind of ground unit, looks to me like a docking device.

I don't know about this, the thing that strikes me most is that the ground device it placed in some pretty long looking grass, but the feet supporting the object are still very visible, I would imagine that the grass would be covering them up.

I'm actually enjoying this whole strange drone craft thing, mainly because the images are just cool looking and I am enjoying seeing new photos every now and then.

I'm covering most of what I find in my post titled UFO Drone photos inspired Videos, which contains links to the drone photos, the videos on youtube inspired by the photos and a few other things related to this continuing saga.

UFO Drone photos inspired Videos

Every ones seen these, probably. it started with this set of pics from C2C and I think this is the last set of UFO drone pictures, I think there was a set in the middle.

I think they're fake and there are a lot of theories as to why they maybe fake, including a viral campaign for the upcoming Transformers movie.

What I find cool is that they are inspiring video makers to replicate the craft in full animation, I think I may have posted one of the youtube videos in a previous post, I'm to cold to check.

This video of the drone is based on the latest Big Basin photos.


I'm assuming a home user did this and it looks pretty cool, especially for a mock-up, some nice textures would make it look even better. I only wish I could produce CG like this.

The user also as a couple more drone videos based on the earlier photos if you want to check them out.

EDIT:

Other info on the drones:
Explanation of the Recent "Strange Craft" Sightings - I haven't read through much of it, but it does have some pretty cool photos of an object that looks similar in some ways.

Strange Craft in California - A nice video showing the time line of the photo sets, with photos and the write ups that came with them.

UFO - the Caret Drones - Video showing the drone photos and the Caret documents and photos.

Drone Sightings History - Go here to download a PDF with all the history and photos of the drones.

Critique on the Drone/Strange Craft Photographs - Write up which also contains some analysis of photos, yield something fishy.
