As for old... Mr DW for a young guy you sure make a lot of videos...not

And yea I second that... Where is the Lion King Sequel!

Vlad

Well it's not my fault that dad is retired and in an old person home and has plenty of time to edit while his kids are busy with work/school/whatever and can't edit!

Remember to take your pills!

My first year entering at Sakura-con and two of mine made it in.

I'm so excited about getting to compete with some of the best. So many of last years videos were great, I was afraid that my videos wouldn't make it to the finals.

I hope I get the chance to talk with some of you, I learn so much from the vets. Oh and for the record I'm 25, a little younger than some of you, but I'm no snot nosed kid, I assure you.

You should come check out the AMV creation panel that Vlad is putting together. I will most likely be sharing some of my videos there. And I'm 24, so you're not the youngest

And we usually have an AMV lunch so you'll probably get to talk to us then too

Well I'm 20...that's not young, right? lol

Wish I could make it to more cons, even ones on the east coast (I'm in Southern Cali) but school and work are a pain, bleh.

Im gonna look over the list and do some counting
I thing I had more Women enter this year than Men, and Possibly more Women made the finals than Men

Wooo wooo! Looks like 'Bustin will get a public showing somewhere!! Apparently the bizarre and unexplained trauma MPEG-2 inflicts on my AMV didn't keep it out of this con...maybe there's still hope for others...mebbe...

Hmm, my participation further tips the scales in the direction of older otaku. And then there's the female factor.

This is awesome, you made my day! Just the sort of cheering up I needed!!

This is a cheesy cell phone photo of the room for the AMV contest. Five screens, three up front, two mid-way back.

The room covers about 30,000 sq. feet. It's rated for close to three thousand people, but I don't think the AMV show has ever filled it.

I'm glad we'll be competing. This should be interesting.
