FLATLINE: How The Amiga Languished [Patreon Preview] (Patreon)
Content
Flatline is a tale of the Amiga's initial promise, its failure - and eventual redemption. It details a period in the machine's history of which even ardent fans of the Amiga may only have a limited appreciation.
I chose a slightly different approach to this video, using original hardware and CRT displays instead of emulation. Not only does it grant a unique visual aesthetic, I think it also lends a degree of authenticity to the 'feel' of the video - as well as a considerable technical challenge. (Also, it gave me an excuse to expand my collection of Amiga hardware and software!)
I'll be releasing the video publicly in a week (14th December) via the new 'YouTube Premieres' feature - i.e. subscribers will be notified ahead of the video going live.
Vlog to follow soon - I'll be posting soundtrack/wallpaper links for the benefit of patrons shortly, too.
