Quality or quantity?

[ZephyrStar]

Quality. That's why I take so long ;_;

Nothing is wrong with fun and quick side projects though, especially if they're in the name of awesomecore or to break you out of a rut.

Quantity is good when you are organizing amv room
tho i have dled 100 gig of amvs ad i can clearly say that more than half isn't even solid uh huh good thing there is preview now. Now i can have just decent ones on my dvd's/hdd .

I always keep a small stash of videos to watch on my TV. Whenever I do add a video to it it's usually at least decent, and when I need some space I just erase some I know I won't be watching again. I have a select group of 100 or so that I just don't touch; these are all quality. Although I try to keep this group as small as possible, I won't hesitate to add another if it's really good.
So, above all is quality of course... But it doesn't hurt to have a large quantity either.

I think both can be ok, depending on the person.
If you have lots of video ideas that you want to make, then unless you have tons of free time, there is no way that you can make all of them. So, if making those videos is important to you, maybe its best to at least try to make them quickly, rather than not make them at all.

But for your really important videos, you should definitely go for quality, no matter what.

Logically, one aims to collect videos that one deems enjoyable. So the videos in a "quality" collection will also be included in a "quantity" collection, the difference being that the "quantity" collection will have more videos in it. It seems the sole factor separating "quality" and "quantity" is the number of AMVs in one's collection.



That said, I have 45 AMVs in my collection not including my own.

Quantity, since I tend to find something I like in amvs whether it's actually good or not. I actually have a lot of amvs in my folder that I rarely ever watch. I'm probably just too lazy to go through and actually delete the ones I never watch I still enjoy videos with actual effort put into them than anything else

Quantity lasts. Quality fades.

10 years ago, this wasn't a problem.

Nowadays I take my time with my vids. Not because I want them to look or sound better (not the first priority at least), but because it's hard to find time in between work and video games. When I first started editing, I hardly knew about quality, or at least proper ripping and such, and most of my AMVs I rushed them towards the end. I also had more time to edit back then, so I was able to release more. Now that I have read the guides (or at least the old Read Ermac's and Absolute Destiny's Friendly AMV Guide (2.0 I think)), I try to make the video and audio better, but I guess I would have to release something to prove it :/

It's almost as if there's 2 conversations going on here... maybe if people actually read the replies they'd pick up on the one the OP was actually asking.
