The DHARMA Orientation Films

Lost: The DHARMA Orientation Films (Revisited)

http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/DHARMA_Initiative

Anyone that’s my age will remember watching films like this in school, before VCR tapes became popular, and you would hear the projector over the sound a lot of the time. There would be scratches and missing frames. The LOST creators captured that with these orientation films.

I thought it would be fun to revisit these videos again

The Swan Film

-Watch Dr. Marvin Candle’s reaction when he talks about the ‘incident’. This strongly hints at the fact he was probably there and lost his arm in the process.

-Yes, the music is a version of the score that is used in the show.

The Pearl Film

-On the upper left side of the screen (1:13 mark), you can see some people working in the Swan Station on the screen. In the screen, it zooms in on the men.

Psychology film

Not sure what this is, but it was used in the Lost Experience game.

Orchid video

This is my favorite one, and we got to see an early glimpse of it in a promotional video earlier on.

Here the famous outtake version. I love Marvin’s reaction to the number 15 bunny.

The Comic Con video

Pierre Chang holds his hand and arm indicating that Daniel Faraday told him about the accident/incident that took away Chang’s arm.

My question is what does this (Please, please! You have to stop what's about to happen, you can't let us…) mean?

Anyway, I hope you get a kick out of these videos.
