That's why I qualified it with most. ^^Scintilla wrote:But this is by no means a hard and fast rule; in particular, action and dance videos seem less bound by lyric synch than other genres, whereas in comedy it's often effectively a requirement (depends on the audio source used).staces wrote:Also, when it comes to the images being "random," that may be so in some vids, but for the most part every thing is lyric synched! The images match the meaning of the songs.
[quote ="Arzuro"]As for staces: I didn't complain about bad syncing I'm complaining about too many flashy picutes in too little time, which is caused by the desire to synch which I don't feel is that important. Furthermore, The whisper of the beast uses a german song which just happesn to be my mother tongue, so don't wave the "it's just above your head" rod at me. And nice job with the cartoon network reference, you totally pwned me with that one. It looks like your post was written by two different people, one of which I can respect.[/quote]
That in essence, is complaining about a form of bad timing. Bad timing isn't necessarily, just off beat or too slow. Like some songs have lots of beats that are slow. Like if someone did a vid to Evanesence's "Hello" and timed to every piano note it'd look awful.... And if you don't feel that the timing is that important, find vids that don't really focus on it. "Trauer" by Pochik is an excellent example of probably the kinds of AMV you're looking for. And it's in German, whoopie.
As for the language reference, that wasn't me trying to call you stupid, I got that in earlier. It was saying, unless you're a miraculous linguist who has the magical ability to speak every language in the world, you might run into AMVs for languages you don't know. You speak German, great it helps you a good deal. But there are AMVs in dozens of languges around here.
Glad to hear that at least half of my post sounded respectful, because that's more than yours have come across as. =)
