[capchassuck]

I did a fancast video of nine inch nails that just so happens to have a sound track from ghosts...its on my you tube profile..

[TheEnchantedivy]

this is NEVER gonna happen. yet another major disappointment from this has been.

[rencrow]

@TheEnchantedivy

This video is from 3 years ago. They already did the film festival event. But don't let this discourage you, the video is still up so obviously you can still make something.

[CalmNoise]

Here it is youtube.com/watch?v=PBje3dARL2­c

[FembotFatale007]

Trent is a God and he shits gold. Did you know it doesn't smell either? He also is perfect and makes no mistakes. What a heroic person for doing all this for all of mankind.

[fallenpumpkinhead]

@FembotFatale007 Nice try but you missed the whole point

[lordfirefox]

@FembotFatale007 Yeah you're right, he's much better than your precious Justin Beiber.

[CrimsonandCloves]

'O_O'...And I missed THAT?! *smacks forehead* I'm not worthy...such a slacker fan I've become...

[JordMcDrummer]

Cant wait for the next four volumes!

[Michaeldoeslife]

@JordMcDrummer

I can't wait either! But I have a feel it won't be anytime soon. :(

[RottenEggCreations]

either too many videos suck, or they are working on something big.

[spikeypromusic]

i feel like the ghosts are taking way to long to get this over with how many vids ya going to check out any way its been two years dood.

[cam6389]

Just curious.. Did anything happen in regards to this? I don't recall ever being shown the favourite videos or anything,

[miniaciloops]

THNAKS MASTER TRENT FOR THIS CREATIVE OPORTUNITY FOR ALL!

I UPLOAD A NEW VIDEO

THE NAME IS A "GHOSTS FUTURE TRAIN"

I LIKE GHOSTS ALBUM VERY HIGH LEVEL OF MUSIC!!!!!!!!!

[cthulukiller]

trent reznor is my hero

[halideproductions]

So did u guys just forget about all the people who submitted videos for the ghosts film festival? I never heard anything about it ever again... did all of our videos suck that bad?

[asiandrummer84]

not sure if anybody notice but the NIN Ghosts Film Fest Group is clutter w/ spammers right now.

[hyperpower10]

0:03

hello mr. spock

[createsumchaos]

He really just is incredible. He's so genuine compared to so many members of the music industry, so many band members in many different genres claim to care for their fans but for Trent there is hard evidence to support it.

[0777Charles1]

hello. I am charlie. my sister entered in my video under a name I can't spell. it was just a film. trent do you like red heads. well, someone said it sound like a death threat and I laughed so hard I pissed my pants about. I can't find that peice of shit film I made. it is burried. I think the name is Ialcante. damn dead forgien aCTOR. SHE NAME SHIT AFTER. i WAS THE FIRST OF THE CAT'S PREY. see there ur not me. where to go this summer

[pazenger5150]

i'd go gay if trent wanted me to.

just saying.

[Brendo2345]

so who were the winners of this festival?

[WisherSurferGirl]

Trent, you look like a cop now. Why'd you cut your beautiful hair? Good vid.

[psych1414]

@WisherSurferGirl yes. he cut his hair but you have to admit...HE IS STILL FUCKING HOT. :)

[LeoDiamondTV]

trent. i must know if you like what ive done with ghosts 14 (nine inch spears).

i put my heart into it.

thanx for being so sharing.

leo diamond tv

[spikeypromusic]

woo hoo

[ParallaxFilm]

Interesting.

[xXxXTheDarkWolfXxXx]

I don't care how different Trent looks now - to me, he'll always be the sexiest goddamned man alive.

NIИ = Best Band Ever

[cesarkillzone40]

Year Zero + Ghosts Festival = Masterpiece Projects!

[junjunjarjarbinx]

I love the fact that Trent is an advocate of creativity and how he integrates with the audience to manifest ideas. This is how the world should be instead of harsh copyright laws hindering our ideas. Pirating music = bad but remixing music = should be good.

[BrandonNicholasBurge]

Big fan of NIN here, but why does Trent Reznor refer to NIN as "We"? I thaught NIN was just Trent acting alone on the albums.

[BaileysBeads]

He gathers a band that continuously changes per project. With 'we' he means whoever is in cooperating.

[YetAnthony]

Trent doesn't even need to use good lighting because he's too cool for that. :P

[Eddieliebe]

please!!! HOW..I CANT GET THE MUSIC????? FOR THE VIDEO

Thanks a lot!

[BaileysBeads]

You can download the first ghost album for free from the official ghost site.

[Shapiro216]

Where can we see the winners?

[stoopidMonkey56]

Are you guys serious? It happened a while ago, the winners were chosen, and all the winners and their respective videos were released.

He said film festival-LIKE presentation here in the video. That is exactly what happened, showing us all videos of the winners.

[mckrakin]

Yeah. This ain't happening.

[GenerationXeroFilms]

I think it's safe to say this shit is never gonna happen. It's going on 2 fucking years.

[JayBennett1973]

the film fest happened ..its called ghost.he wanted fans to make vids t o his general music..interaction is great.

[JesusTerminator]

He looks kinda tired...

[JayBennett1973]

Trent is such a genius..I love the way he is interacting with his fans..Keep up the good work Trent.

[icemika]

yeah but did this film festival actually happen????????????

[CzechRiot]

it happened in the afterlife.

[angelforfreedom]

I think Ghosts I - IV is THE MOST "industrial" work Trent Reznor has ever produced; in which it stands alongside what the original notion of industrial music was conceived as (by Throbbing Gristle), in my personal opinion. As a fan of NIN, Ghosts I - IV is the only thing by them that I can fully relate to sonically since "The Perfect Drug Remixes" back in 1997. That said, "Pretty Hate Machine" forever though!!!

[ixli]

Just remembered this vid today: It's been ages since this came about...

Did this film fest' actually happen?

If not, now that NIN are somewhat over (for now at least) it seems unlikely that it'll be followed through :/ Hope I'm wrong. If not, lame

[Cmccaffe81]

Trent is awesome intelligent

[floppycooldog]

NIN4LIFE

[vanriver11]

Dude, this is steller. The music by it self is great. To have the fans apart of it, kick ass.

[Disembodied23]

Trent you're the man.

[spikeypromusic]

trent this is spikeyprodutions or spikeypromusic im sure after digging through the hours of this project its time for me to say way to be for the fans and buy the way you started this on my b-day march 2 how cool for me. love your work best wishes

[diegolas666]

Tren= The ultimate musician

[wolvespack6]

so when is this going to start or did we miss it

[spikeypromusic]

i feel a tingling sensation in my pants oh sorry thats my dog rock on and best wishes for the future

[nikolaspearce]

NIN 4 LIF3

[mynameisomar199]

If jesus doesn't win, OUR CARROTS WILL NEVER BE ROASTED!!!!!

[aja123456aja]

trent rules

[YetAnthony]

Trent = God :)

[eldruidacosmico]

Trent looks like irish actor Stephen Rea on this video, doen't he??

[reggie0094]

Trent, you are a pure music-genious! Everyone I know loved your work of art, and you do an amazing job. AMAZING.!

[MrBlue612]

wat r u tlkin about?

i just saw trent in concert in novemember

[jjjlane]

Does anyone know when this festival will end?

[dk2853]

In an interview a few months ago, he said he kind of forgot about it and pushed it back, because he had so much other stuff going on. My guess is sometime next month after the final few NIN concerts.

[mynameisomar199]

it will end when jesus comes back to earth from the 50th World War of Mars so that way the martians will stop eating our cabbages. We Need Our CABBAGES!!!!!!

[strangeldsixtimes]

fkin awsome

[quinn15M3NT4L]

The "hecklers" have found better things to do now that these guys are on the last leg of their goodbye tour....

anyway, I'd love to see more volumes of Ghosts some day, I thought it was a great project on many levels....

[lepexi]

he SAYS to download his music.

your doing what he DOESNT want buy paying for his music. because until Nothing Records he was fighting the labels to lower prices and stop being greedy assholes.

[CoolMovesNow]

Hecklers? Who the fuck are they anyway? This is Trent Reznor. Saw them when they were in O.C., they fucking rocked!

[Monada3]

Is there limited dates?

[josbusfield]

Been watching all the heckler's tearing him down during his concerts on youtube...no respect. Oddly enough people have the notion that he's some supremely dark, suicidal, knife cutting fanatical freak...good to see that him breaking down the stereotypes by speaking intelligently about his ideas...Way to be yourself

[crazysquirrel868]

whens there new album released?

[Orf]

seems like it's been "a few months"! point us to the best videos!

[Deckardpr]

now you want to make a movie!!!!???

damn!

[carriel817]

Damn it, I didn't see this until now...one year later...anyway, I have a video, I will put it on here...Check my kids out singing Hurt....sorry but we love your music Trent we are driving 6 hours to PA to see you ina couple days and I saw you last month in IN love you always!!!! Carrie L.

[Submarinervideos]

Shut the fuck up you pathetic piece of shit and stop spaming you sick ass mo fo.

I bet Peddo Bear is your father, aint he not.

[Gizmogibbongimp]

And worse, makin' NIN look bad... And seriously... Who would click this shit? It's probably a virus ridden maggot hole, like your mother.

[killastyle]

go fuck your self..polluting youtube

[username1p]

watch ur mouth

[killastyle]

freedom of speech, just because you dont want to hear it, doesnt mean i cant say it =]

[username1p]

Why do you have to be so mean though, can't you rephrase it some other way?

[killastyle]

guess we arent all nice like you username =]...and that was the nicest way i could put it =D

[AkiraMoa]

hurr durr derp derp =]

[Cockoblock]

yeah like that will ever happen

[INSPIREDbyINSANITY]

you're a piece of shit

[strawberryten]

It's impossible not to admire and respect this man for his exceptional ideas and work...

[unblestmuffin]

put ghosts on i tunes!!!!

[samg789]

he speaks alot deeper than i thought he would ha

[computerzombie]

dude... He sounds like hes in a mansion hallway

[OceansideRoberts]

Dont fail to mention TR tells you to steal his music.. There are videos telling you to.

So fuck YouTube and Google for trying to control your creations using NIN's music, when we have permission to do so.

[Hitamaru]

steal everything before ghosts. buy ghosts

[mconn2112]

I have made original videos of my own creation with NIN tunes, strictly for entertainment purposes, not for financial gain or otherwise.....and they were all rejected. Copyright laws are too draconian and they blanket instances they shouldn't.

I choose not to take the scraps from Trent Reznor's table now. Thanks, but no thanks.

[DeepBlueEdit]

Well, Google pulled my second entry, Friends too now. Goofs. Hope they catch on and get with the program. This is getting old.

S.

[DeepBlueEdit]

Google told me today they pulled the Google version of the video I used. I posted it here officially and on Google. (Google looks better) I disputed it and pointed them to this video specifically where Trent says he has a deal with Google and YouTube. I'll be holding my breath till it shows up again.

Look for Ghosts I:I on YouTube by DeepBlueEdit. Shot in 16mm film. Can't post a link as the comments won't pass links.

Sean

[lord6095]

@DeepBlueEdit, sucks you disabled the rating and comments on your video... Next time instead of letterbox the 16mm film, crop the video to 16:9 and upload HD so we can appreciate the wonders of celluloid...

[DeepBlueEdit]

Will do. I had a better encoded version on Google but the goofs pulled it for copyright. I let them know about the contest. Still waiting to hear, and for it to get listed here in the official contest pages. Been months now waiting for it to show up in the official channel. Trent's busy I know so I'll be here.

[Mikelaren101]

Yea this disk set, is rly good for small personal videos. or if you just want to lye down and ponder at lifes mysteries. :D

[optikronix]

ive recently finished my film project, usings several ghosts songs as soundtrack. they better not fucking sue me, or take down my video.. they've done that with past music videos i did for NIN

[sevorg74]

I used one of the Ghost tracks on one of my short films for my NYU course summer 2008. I have submitted my short as a response to this video.

[tangeloman666]

Hold up.. All I wanna know is: CAN WE USE THIS MUSIC PERMANENTLY IN OUR FILMS, AND NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT SOME BULLSHIT COPYRIGHT LAWSUIT?

[synkronyk]

CORRECT

[tibieryo]

RIGHT ON

[optikronix]

wat if i have a short film with the music, and i want to enter into short film festivals? would that be considered a violation against the non-commercial rule?

[tibieryo]

As long as he's credited, you should be fine.

[deconformest]

mslvc2011, you are a hero, i completly agree, and i am saldy one of those people

[mslvc2011]

...I probably would too.

Who can resist a sixteen-year-old virgin?

[mslvc2011]

I wonder how this man feels knowing that probably over two-thirds of his fans would gladly get on their knees and suck his cock.

[SSLSP69]

f*ck, I would!!

[robram818]

waaaaawaaaa.....it's only my opinion! Everyone please relax and continue to stick your head up Trent's ass!!!

[superfundeathhammer]

Just Ignore the silly troll

[leavinghope1970]

Been into this band since 1991. Witness live before ever hearing a note from PHM. And this man has created nothin but great music, art, and will sincerely be remembered for what he's doing for the fans and the music community.

[IndustrialismFilm]

when is this project going to be over? i am eeger to see the film festival winners or selections

[F0l2saken]

Shut the fuck up robram818. What the fuck would make you say something like that from this video, what he's doing here is pretty neat, and you say something stupid like that. With that kind of attitude, you'll never get out of the trailer man...

[robram818]

neat! lol

[palecapulet]

get over himself? He's being nice and involving the fans. I can tell you aren't a fan, but just because you broke up with an ex doesn't mean its a great decision to keep yelling name calling, at him or her.

[justme252009]

I'm not attracted to anybody like i am to you..

[81beast81]

...youre kidding, right? god i hope so lmao

[shoegalsho]

lol! Are you joking lol! Have you not seen him recently live? He's bulked up doing weights and I think he's just aged (very well as he still looks as hot as ever).

[Aelliotb]

Such a happy boy

[lordofdogtownign]

This ghosts thing was a great project. i never thought about it but the generic names things really helped me get my own visuals.

[Brizzle909]

2012 Trent Reznor FOR PRESIDENT!!!!

[mrway667]

that trent is a good guy

[willobeen]

This is the coolest way to advertisemaking money by helping others creatively. Your awesome Trent!

[spikeypromusic]

im wondering how many people get rejected out of the four thousand plus that are in the festival. also wondering if anyone has been contacted about a video they have submited

[gatheringleaves]

Is this still going on?

[centermassmedia]

Couple of questions:

1. Are entries still being accepted

and

2. If I made a film that uses a Ghosts track in the opening but uses other music throughout, does that qualify or can the videos only have Ghosts music in it?

Thanks

[monkies978]

Trent looks like a 'cool dad'.

-I know he doesn't have any kids. It's just an observation.

[Heartless216]

he doesn't

[Gabrielarkangel123]

LOL, He said "I know he doesn't" in the post.

[Swagtastical]

This is all good, but have yall heard of vthov? Search "Vthov Obama Inauguration Song" This cat is going to be huge. Raw lyrics and he makes his own beats which are also fiyah. See for yourself if you don't believe me.

[ach3s]

Incubus already did it for their song 'Dig'

[Barmengoza]

Whats up snape

[jugla17]

he does look like snape lol

[ArmesPryein]

I made my entry a few days ago. Here it is.

/watch?v=0CyIz6Gju-c

[TallicaMaiden]

I love the Ghosts tracks, they relax me a lot.

Does anyone else think that Trent looks uncannily like Alan Rickman?

[bongobongo4]

and snape from harry potter..

[TallicaMaiden]

Alan Rickman IS Snape XD

[bongobongo4]

oh..umm i feel pretty dumb now!

at least i learned something new :D

[collonyou]

i think its still going, just submit a video while their group still appears

[maxwellnintendo]

oh whaaaaaaaaaaat?

A ghost film festival contest?

has this ended already!? :(

[melodiouscanopies]

This festival rocks! I had an amazing experience making my video. Thank you for sharing your beautiful music and for passing on the torch. I feel inspired!

[easycurego]

Trent, why u r hiding behind the shadow?

[YCC4]

trent got a grammy nod for ghosts! guess ill watch this year, good for him, hope he wins!

[menudoluver80]

WTF is the point of this video??

[brandywinevalentine]

You simply cannot be that daft.

[pmonroy86]

he's explaining the ideas of the ghosts records.

it's pretty obivoius

[theholy0]

Nice reverberant space. Don't hate me for devoting all of my listening attention to examining the sound of the space that you are speaking in.

[omgitsamby]

why donsent someone make a song combining several but one solid trak like one full cd long but make it insturmentally flowing from one to another i have not found anything decent above 10 mins long but there all dance techno or rave some one sgould use like hurt by nin as a base and use traks they can find to compile somthing differnt somthing new somthing thats worth listening to i love wat these guys are doing but put them together now theres a song

[felpudo00]

pink floyd did that :)

[wwjd4someslayer]

i thought downward spiral did a good job of that.... but then again i think thats because the similarities of the songs in terms of lyrics not instruments.

but yeah pink floyd did that alot,

colors by between the buried and me.

in fact the only reason i listen to that band is because of the great instruments... if you listen to that album you wont know when the songs change so id recomend you give that a try
