and those who weren't there could get "filled in" by pm by sending them the chat. I'm thinking text based convo over a voice chat, that way we have "transcripts" to send people who aren't there.

That might work, but the ones who dont show up will still have to critique the betas in one way or another. -brings out pistol-

one of the biggest failings Ayu had was the lack of communication, I'd not like to see that happen here.

Thats why im forcing everyone to critique. Like i said before, lack of good feedback can kill a mep. And for some reason, this project gets compared to Ayumix a lot o_O

I still dont understand as to why =\

Hey everyone,

I'm sorry I haven't sent out a beta yet. My plan to use a variety of different sources has failed me, meaning that I had to think too much about what scenes to use, rather than focus on the actual editing. I'm sure it sounds silly, but the fact is that I get overwhelmed easily, especially when my footage is a total mess.

So I've erased everything, and I'm making a fresh start with a different series. I'll have a beta ready soon - I'm feeling much more motivated now that I'm organized ^.^

Also, I've taken a look at the betas sent in. Everyone seems to be making progress, and I'm impressed. Great job so far, guys!

Truthfully I don't believe that just focusing about what is good/bad about the individual pieces is all we need with the betas... I'm thinking that we might need more consistency... I think that actually collaborating more and actually trading ideas might be a good thing...

and the reason it's being compared is because 1 dance music and 2 a lot of similar editors...

The reason I'm comparing it to Ayu is because it's the most recent mep I've worked on, and I'm right back in the same spot I was in on Ayu... Blocked and not sure what to do.

the feedback I'm getting (shows potential) is nice, but its not very helpful.

I thought trading ideas was a part of beta testing, but i agree on the fact most people will just say they like it or they dont without coming up with something that'd make it better. So yeah, because most people dont, i second that.

mmm i guess the fact that almost all of my friends were in ayu can make it similar but it being dance should be irrelevant.

Well technically i dont want to tell you how to edit, because dance is made for playing around and experimenting, but if its putting you in an awkward situation like before, we're going to have to do something about it.

Anyways, i definitely think we should do an aim get-together and discuss the betas, we just have to come up with a date and time when most of the members will be availible.

You know, if we're gonna discuss when to have this aim get-together, we should probably discuss it on the thread rather then being lazy and letting it sink to the bottom.
