I've been following the amv scene on and off for a little now.
Well now is my first entrance into thiss whole thing.
I'd like an opinion on my first work in progress. Now I know theres alot of sync issues and lip synch issues right now. I'm still getting the shots up on the timeline.... (plus windows movie maker is obnoxious)
So I'm wondering about what you guys think of its content. The images used in context to where the song is headed.

I've also never used angel fire as a host before usually I only need to host jpegs on photobucket. Sorry abotu the wmv format. If anyone knows a free program I can convert that into an mpeg or encode it with divx turn me on

not to bad for a begining. It works well with the song and it helps that I've seen the show. I'm pretty new at this too so its one new guy to another. Just a few things. First I would try to not use the same footage over and over again. It gets noticable after a little while. Movie Maker sucks, I would now its the only thing I can use, sometimes at the end of a clip the first frame of the next clip gets tagged on. This never shows up while you're watching it in Movie Maker, but after you save it and watch it, its there. An example in your video is at 1:02. Just take a little off the end of each clip where this happens, this might throw off synching though so its a tradeoff.
I found another trick though. If you can get a converter for wmv. Open it in Virtual Dub probably as a Divx, and then find the frames that you don't want and delete them, there so small a quick it shouldn't throw anything off.
I don't think you'll ever find a free wmv convert. This is because Windows holds a copyright or patent or something like that on wmv and asf file types, so only things that pay Microsoft money can get the software to convert it. I bought one, cost me $25.00, but it pretty good.
I gave you a opinion, I would appreciate if you could submit an op my vid, its my first one I finished its at:

So after all that, Its a good concept and keep at it. I'd like to see it when its finally done. It is deinatly goinng to be a good action video.
Thanks,
