Oceania TV - A Regular Afternoon Broadcast (1984)

A segment of a broadcast in Oceania, set in the dystopian world of George Orwell's 1984.

All faces appearing in the video does not exist, generated using:

This is a slightly more experimental video. If you would prefer more 1984 content, and/or approves of the quality of these new talking humans, I will make more 1984 videos with slightly more effort (animation, graphics, etc.)

I love the British 50s style and the voices, it looks terrifyingly realistic

[WarriorWildhead]

I really love how the guy in the Moment of Truth looks like hes reading a script

[slightlyistorical]

My personal cannon is that Oceania is limited strictly to the British Isles, their revolution having not succeeded in the U.S., Australasia, South America, or South Africa, and their war against "Eurasia" and/or "Eastasia" is their conflict against NATO remnants. This is an astounding video as always.

Wow this Winston character seems like a terrible guy. Hope he receives the judgement of Big Brother

[whiteelephant]

Plot twist: Winston is actually Epentibi and this was not AI generated imagery

I remember after reading the book in High school having a conversation with my friend (both the best fans of Alternate History and Real History), was there any hope in the world of 1984 and was it the perfect totalitarian society.

I decided that it's wasn't perfect and if anything what we see in the book is Oceania not at it's triumph but at it's end. New speak, the constant propaganda, and schizophrenic social control was the last desperate attempts of a collapsing system to hold on.

Every decision made by the party to attempt to increase control was indirectly cause the systems that the party relied on stagnant and become more ineffective haste its own collapse. New speak being the perfect example of this. It would give the party control of language but because of it's clunkiness and difficulty of clear communication it causes the ability for the party to make quick decisions only causing frustration and social collapse, making rebellion the only option if you wanted to communicate clearly.

I’m actually intrigued how the broadcasts of other superstates. So please do more of these.

I love, in a dark sort of way, how the man in the Moment of Truth section was likely thrown under the bus by the party, purely so they could correct a statistic for *milk rations* without making it look like a mistake on their part. That's Big Brother to an absolute tee.

“Will of the big brother”

Guess in the pre- or mid-purging days, the Big Brother was the ideal man / party member instead of a guy called Big Brother

"Here is the news flash...Plusgood, Doubleplusgood. Plusgood, Doubleplusgood" - Eurythmics, "1984"

"Strong and peaceful, wise and brave,
Fighting the fight for the whole world to save..."

[voltageesq.]

i really like the implication that the broadcasts don't even take up a quarter of the telescreen- they're tiny and centered right in the middle of the screen, so you move your face closer to the camera and potentially get done for facecrime.

Doubleplusgood work, comrade

[redbrick]

I always wanted to see television broadcast, inspired by a novel "1984". Doubleplusgood work, Epentibi

[nayas]

Wooow. This reminded me how truly horrifying the universe of 1984 is

[Prauwlet]

My headcanon for 1984 is that Oceania only controls Britian and the rest of the world just gets on with their lives while Britian runs the most hellish state imaginable.

[TheAlfrulz]

Wonderful job! I like how the screen has a slight curvature on the edges, like on those really old tube TVs.
I am pleased to hear the war is now within measurable distance of being won.

[cornhorn]

This is amazing! hope you make more of these

[NexusApollo]

Remember people. Onii-Chan is watching you.

[maxbradley]

Love how he doesn’t even specify where the victory happened it could be in South Africa, Oceania, India.
