Distant horizons loading, but horizons arent distant

Can anyone explain how distant horizons works? At first I thought it did it by itself, so i let it run for half an hour only to see nothing really happened. Then I saw i needed to get chunky. I used chunky, used some fat radius took about 2 hours to load. Then i turned on distand horizons and it just looked like normal minecraft. All i know is now im missing a couple gigabites of storage and my horizons arent any more distant. What should I do to get that nice cinematic background u see on those youtube videos? Is there a faster way or is this really all I can do
