OPS! 1 for 1, and get one free? ;)

Post by animedays » Thu Jun 18, 2009 12:02 am

Hi All!

I'd like some honest OPs... one for one. Do three, get one free! (That's equals four on my end). There's five vids to pick from. lol. I can't promise to have your ops up right away, but I will get to them. I always do....with the exception of one person...I forgot! (me so bad). But I'm subscribing, and I check my email at least once a day normally :D I wouldn't know if you did or didn't, but I ask that you actually DL the vids rather than preview...sync is sometimes off on preview.

All the vids are WMM except #1, that one is in trial version of Magix.

1. Technically my newest...but I'm just trying out some software. A quickie...learning cropping and mashing.



2. My newest AMV with some major effort. In my opinion, it's my best one so far. I also used way way way more effects than I ever have. It's suggestive btw...not bad...but the lyrics paired with the images...



3. This one is old, but I lost it in a HD crash. It's super short...I tried to be cute and funny. (TRIED).




4. This one is one I did while I had a major sinus infection going on...I was digging the anime so much I wanted to do an AMV to it. It's kinda trailer-ish and done to it's own opening song. I really did this rather quick too.



5. This one was my strange attempt to be sentimental. It kinda turned into a story AMV. It's rather uh UNIQUE. Open mind please. :)

Hi, animedays! I wanted to give three opinions on your videos, but my computer can't read WMM files, I think.

I left one, so here's mine. I made it for fans familiar with Lupin the 3rd, so here's some background: Lupin (the guy in the red jacket) and his gang are thieves, so they're bad guys, but there's worse bad guys out there, and so this one woman (the one wearing red) is lamenting how the world's gone to hell in a handbasket and how the world needs heroes. The anti-heroes, Lupin the 3rd and his gang, (plus the guy in the trenchcoat, the cop) are those heroes. By the way, I have no technical skill whatsoever in AMV-making. It's the concept that matters to me above all else. But anway, I'll stop talking now.

The files themselves are .wmv - and it's one of the most basic file extensions for windows. The Vampire Knight one is mpeg2 too. I ran it through magix to convert it. But it's all a matter of codecs for the most part. K-Lite or CCCP are some heavy duty codec packs...but they should be able to play on the most basic of PCs as a .wmv file. (I would think----) If you have a mac...well I haven't been on a mac since elementary school...so....ya.

I am DL'ing your video now...if I don't get it up today, I will tomorrow (my time...lol). :)

Yeah, I saw that they're Windows files. ^^;; Nope, I have a Mac, so I was only able to download the D-Grey Man one. But yep, I left my opinion on 3. ^^ It was my pleasure!

Okay, this one's a little funky because the footage from Hellsing was from a Region 1 DVD, and I locked my computer onto Region 2. ^^; So all of the footage from Hellsing is fuzzy. Sorry if it hurts your eyes. oO This AMV is a crossover, Lupin the 3rd fighting Alucard from Hellsing. I didn't want either of them to win and I just realized the drama category doesn't fit the ending scene, but ah, well. ^^;

http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... p?v=168778



This AMV is supposed to show how though Lupin and his gang are thieves, and they're mostly out for themselves, they, including the cop, still care for each other when the going gets tough. Video quality is low in some parts again because of having to film the TV screen. ^^;

http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members ... p?v=168787



Quality is low on this one because I added lighting effects, so it's blurry in some places. Plot: Daisuke Jigen (guy with beard) betrays Lupin and Goemon (samurai). Lyrics are meant to go along with the video, attempt at synching of action only in the last 15 seconds or so.

In the meantime, I'll watch more of your videos. ^_^
