Yes, certainly! We still have a solid 2 months to create clips, so please feel free to submit. Just follow the steps in the first post and I look forward to seeing what you can come up with

[Gaelstrom]

Checkin' in, all, how's everything doing with ideas and clips? I did see a few of you get in contact with me on Skype, yet we haven't gotten the chance to have an actual conversation. Feel free to drop me messages even if I'm offline due to work hours and I'll get back to you. I'll again start messaging everyone to get an idea of where you are.

I finally got Skype working(kept crashing before), so I can stay in contact that way now too.

Another update. Overtime finally finished at work so I could finish my first clip.

For all to see. Yes, enjoy the name.

Critique at will, we're here to make everything as good as possible and as amusing and funny as possible

Everyone feel free to post your WIPs or completed works for everyone here to see and comment on. We're also here to improve as editors overall as well.

Wanted to put forth a running gag potential. May be too old, but figured I'd mention it and see what people thought:

This audio done to continuously less innocuous scenes like starting with Nichijou with the sky beam and ending with someone dropping a fuggin' pencil or something with a shit ton of reaction shots.

Everyone post your running gag potentials, no matter what they are

I like the way she's just either stunned into silence or waiting for her chance to jump in.

I had an idea to use the audio "isn't that cute, but its wrong!" early in the video, and then as a running gag the rest of the video using only the "still wrong!!" part in short clips.

Example....
the initial "isn't that cute, but its wrong!!" clip could be this scene from soul eater.

and then the "still wrong" clips could be anything

Hehe, I like it, unfortunately I don't personally see how the running gag aspect works, since it's kind of an isolated scene. You've got a great idea on its own with Death the Kid saying it and hurling the whatever-the-hell-that-is down the hall with the "BUT IT'S WROOOONG!!" but I don't know if it has enough of an establishing setup to work for the running gag itself. Honestly what I thought of when I heard it was the superman remake with Lex Luthor going "WROOOOOOOOOOONG!!!"

For a running gag, I've mentioned it in previous years, but it has to be adaptable so that the audience can't see it coming unless we want them to. Example of wanting them to is the Gundamn clicks last year, since they knew something was going to happen, but they didn't know what. In this case, after seeing the "Isn't that cute" once, a second clip they would expect the next step in the joke, and I don't see quite how we'd change it up to keep them guessing. If we just continued with "BUT IT'S WRONG!" on its own, I fear that's too little context for the audience to feel like they're following the overall gag.

I do love the clip idea though, I want to see it with those Death the Kid clips Good thinking though, I like it. You're on the right thought process.

Here's another Higurashi clip I made using the song "That Awful Day" by Rodney Carrington. It was originally for a different AMV project but it didn't get used so I decided to give it to this project.
