Your biggest obstacle

When I discover that the shots I need don't actually exist.

Finding other material to compensate is hard.

And just plain laziness/procrastination.

My inability to force myself to sit down, open up Adobe Premiere, and start editing.

And as concerns my current state, the fact that none of my ideas are really writing themselves in my head. Like, with my earlier videos, it would be really obvious to me which clips I should put where, but with my current ideas, it's not.

And for the one that is, I don't have all the required footage. >_<

Other ideas. I'll be halfway through a video when some other idea takes ahold of me and no matter how I try to focus on what I've already started I just can't shake thinking about how to do the other idea. Eventually I just quit what I was working on and start the new idea which goes fine until I'm about halfway done with it and yet another idea comes up. I have more half finished videos than I have completed ones and at this point I generally can't even remember which idea interupted which.

Oh, dear x99999
I hate it when that happens.
Just when its hard enough to even start editing,
a new idea pops out of nowhere.

My bigest obstacles are ideas and time. Once I actually start editing I can bury myself in it.

My biggest obstacle is that the only DVDs I now own are Final Fantasy Unlimited. Everything else I have are fansubbed. ;_; And I need Premier.

Ideas arent't any problems for me, I have ideas for 3 amvs now and I know I'll do them someday. The only problem is time and laziness.
