Tsukin, you have a stalker

You could say that *shifty eyes*.

But seriously though, Tsukin's been my favorite editor since I found the .org

Spikan, I watched through your videos and noticed that you are using fansubs, also that the scene selection is mostly random and without variety, a lot of the scenes have almost the exact same feel throughout the videos.

Have you ever used dvds for footage? If you have and know how to rip dvds, quickly edit something 10 - 15 seconds long with dvd footage using a clip from a random song. Be sure to vary the scene selection, and pay close attention to mood and try to match it, and then put it on yousendit so I can see if you are qualified to take a part.

If you don't have dvds to use though, you can just edit with the fansubs (although dvd footage is preferred) and if I like the editing I can help you filter them so they look smooth.

Sure, I kind of am just starting out, so I could see where I might not be qualified,I'll try though, and I'll get it to you asap.

Oh yeah, and I don't have any DVDs to rip from at the moment, so it'll have to be fansubs for now, sorry.

EDIT: Actually, if you don't mind waiting a few days I can get my hands on an Outlaw Star DVD set

tsukin i wouldnt allow fansubs period. its hard enough getting them to look good at full res with filters even.

I'll just wait for my DVD set, actually I might have an FMA set somewhere around here

EDIT: Shit, I just remembered I have DVD quality FMA on my compy already...

Actually JaggedIce is using Outlaw Star, however I have been unable to contact him. so at the moment it is undecided whether he is staying or not, and FMA is also already being used in the project.

I'm talking about for the demo clip, I'll have something else ready for the actual AMV

Tsukin · Post by **Tsukin** » Wed Oct 17, 2007 10:08 pm

yes i know, but if those are the only dvds you have access to, what are you going to use if I think you are qualified? unless you are getting other dvds soon?

Spikan · Post by **Spikan** » Thu Oct 18, 2007 2:06 pm

I can almost certainly get a bleach set pretty soon

EDIT: Scratch that, I'll send the demo clip soon, and then just contact me if the Outlaw Star guy doesn't keep in touch
