Concept? There's concept in anything in the world, some big some small blaghity blah blah*

But I gotta say, whether I [or the crowd], like or dislike a vid is probably 1% concept and 99% execution.

Let's face it, if it looks like shit, smells like shit, feels like shit, tastes [ack] like shit, then no matter what you'd categorize it as, the majority will still think "shit".

Your concept is NOTHING without the skill, art, and effort needed for good execution. Some are simple [hint* I hump big boobs fanservicey amvs] Dance, action, hell, even Drama. Some are not so simple to grasp and cause people lots of mixed reaction [hint* Euphoria, beautifully story driven amv or Odorikuruu fx with less dance?]

I say it's better overall to have a strong vid in execution and need no concept. Like Koop said: in short I too dislike concept amvs if the execution is garbage.

MADs I almost worship because I don't need to know wtf is going on to enjoy it's effort and seizure inducing skillz at times.

I like it how whenever Koop says sth a bunch of editors gather like flies on honey and try to prove his statements wrong even though there's nothing to be disproved. :lol: Tse tse tse contrary to popular belief. things never change at the org. :so sad:

I'm begining to feel like saying the statments of one by the name of Kevin. On how things are just juvenile especully with anime on how everyone takes it to far and ruins what little enjoyment there is to be had. I think your far more right then anyone else. And by that i mean that everyone is wrong stupid and ignorant. Go ahead and keep your heads turned to the wall wondering what that flicker is on the wall. Walking outside id tell you all about fire and the wonders of the outside world but none of you will beleave it rather you'll just call me crazy and remain in ignorance.

I don't say this to sway any of you poor souls rather for the one who may listen and grow don't be like these people. Get away from them while you can and expand your understanding. TO you there is a future, a hope for something more. Not to mention a hell of alot less harassment.

think of the immortal words of Socrates, "I drank what?"

It's not well known because the research from an archeology dig recently happened but his real words were, "The weed in this must have been chronic"

I think the lady named "Miss Understanding" had her hand at wth is wrong with this off-topicness...

I wonder if the starting question could just be: Do you like Concept videos?

I think if it was worded that way, everything would fall into place like explaining Advanced Metaphysics to a child:

If a child can't understand that which you try to convey, you are useless...

Because every idea in the world should be easily grasped by a 4 year old. Quantum Physics? Electronics? Theory of Relativity? Don't smack your sister? Bah, humanity has no need of these.

You both make very good points. I feel the only way to settle this is via a duel between the two of you. How does pistols at sunset sound?
