I'm not really a contest person; and unless I was in some contest which required me NOT to release it, then, well...

I throw out my video the moment I think it's done. That's the only way it will ever work for me. I'm no great exposure strategist, but it keeps me personally satisfied :)

I agree with Otohiko.

I should also perhaps mention that I released my last video about 10 hours after even the first idea of doing it crossed my mind, while some others I held back for a long, long time waiting for beta feedback and revision. So it's all really relative.

That said, I rarely release videos publically before at least a couple of people other than myself saw them and approved. I think there's only been one exception to that rule; so I do pay some attention to what the others think of its state - even just to sort of make sure I'm sane and that what I'm seeing on screen is actually there :roll:

OtohikoAMV: I just made a uh.. "AMV"
Noonguy007: an "AMV"?
OtohikoAMV: I'm not sure if it qualifies. If it does, it might be the worst AMV ever created.
OtohikoAMV: Do you think I should release it?
Noonguy007: Yes!
OtohikoAMV: Okay
Noonguy007: heh heh, I can't wait to see the reaction to this one...


back on topic: uh, release it sometime your not busy so you can bask in the glow of completion?

Just don't release a video that has a chance of winning a VCA on December 31 :x.

speaking of which: Dwchang's avatar for best romance! :wink:

Personally, I'd recommend not releasing such a video <i>anytime</i> in December (from personal experience).

It'd be funnier if it wasn't the actual conversation we had that night :roll:

( :P )

As for December... well, I think Whisper of the Beast surely contradicts that theory...
