Henry... LISTEN TO ME.

I'm not saying 100 is a lot, but I would think of 100 hours in more of a month and a half or two, not only 3 weeks.

Usually it takes roughly 2-3 months for <strike>me being a lazy ass and not actualy ripping footage or putting my ideas down on a timeline</strike> me to get the concept down. Then about an actual 2 weeks of editing.

It depends for me....but if a work really hard it takes about a month...but two weeks for most. It depends on how compicated and effects used

Lets see here...

I could knock out an AMV in WMM in an afternoon.

SWM took one month of Ripping/filtering. Then two months of editing/exporting.

Shana took me... 8 months picking at it on and off.

You Can Do It If You Really Try is going on 1 year.

So I average about 5 or so Months.

Going on about 18 months now from my initial idea to having a whopping minute and change on the timeline. Not because it's anything special, but because I'm <strike>lazy as hell when it comes to editing</strike> usually pressed for time and editing takes a back seat.

That's 7 hours a day. That's alot. Not impossible, maybe even not improbable, but certainly a stretch.

Being an Insomniac like myself, that is VERY possible.

For me it's usually anywhere from 2 weeks to 8 months to a year at most.
