To those of us with kids...

Post by OtakuGray » Mon Dec 19, 2011 9:31 pm

So I've got a kid on the way, a girl, and I'm hoping to introduce her to anime once I think she is old enough to watch it. I won't push editing on her ofc, but I do think watching anime would be a fun hobby to share with my child.

I was wondering though, how many editors on org actually have children...and if they do, how many enjoy anime? o:

If they do...do they also enjoy editing?(maybe even with their parents...) I just thought it would be interesting to find out! ^^

I still don't have my children but my little sis met anime through my amvs

Evrytime I start editing she sits and start watching how I'm editing an amv, or even when I'm watching anime in my free time

Now that you mention that:

Even though I already work, my parents are always the first people that waych my videos even before premiering them in the org, they even watch 1 episode of every serie I use in the video.

Well, my parents used to be my old beta-testers, back when I still used Windows Movie Maker. I would get really excited when I finished a video, even though back then I didn't know how to get clips, time clips, etc...so I suppose when they saw it they probably were thinking something along the lines of "wtf is this supposed to be?" :rofl:

They weren't as cool about watching the anime I used though...My stepdad loves Death Note, and he liked Gurren Lagann because it made fun of typical mecha shows... They recently stopped testing my videos because they couldn't really give me any advice anymore. They said the editing was too advanced for them. I guess for someone who doesn't make the videos it becomes hard to tell where I screwed up and where I didnt :sweat: oh well :3

D: I wish I could have that kind of parents-tester.
The ironic fact is that in my job, there's one elder doctor that I met recently, when you see him, you don't suspect anything, but the old man is an expert in anime. He even betatested me a short clip a month ago and I was like: O.o how come this old guy knows that much?
