AMV Salad 5: Happy Meal (Nekocon 14, here we come!)

[Squancho]

I don't understand.
I sent him an email several days ago telling him I couldn't "sign" the document to send it.
I asked if we actually have to mail it for FTP permission or whatever the deal is.
Still haven't heard back from him.
I also responded to several threads on the forum and nothing there either.

I'll try again...

Perhaps this was before you sent that. Or perhaps a wrong e-mail? No, you'd be able to tell, it would have come back to you. I'll just assume you sent it after our conversation then, that'd make the most sense. I hope you can send a digital copy of the forms if you haven't done it already, that'd suck if we needed to mail it and were too late...

I need everyone's info who has not yet sent it for their clips by tomorrow...

Ehr not sure what 'tommorow' is for you (different time zone ) but I'll send in my last clip (the bonanza one) in about 12-24 hours.

Also, you might want to consider losing a couple of lesser clips to get the overall quality up. It's nice to have a nice long amv, but you should not include (almost) everything you receive.. just the stuff that's good enough to go in the final project.
A 'beta screening' might give the wrong idea of the amv.. people will still think it's the final version..

I'm in agreement. The clips that needed work can be worked on in the next couple weeks of course, but there were a good 4 or 5 I think need to get bumped up in their lipsync to truly have full effect. Nearly all the musical K-on ones could use some checking, as well as the Haruhi funky town one. I have a few quick gag clips that will take a small amount of time to make, and I want to get them done so we have some more quick clips, since we have an abundance of longer ones this year.

Right now, nothing we have seems to work well in the credits, but that can be buffered if people can find shots of characters walking away from explosions in conjunction with the song. We ALL have to find these. I'm sure there's one in Vampire Hunter D, and I believe there's one in Helsing, I have neither. We only need a few though.

I think I can make some quick credit clips, I already have the ideas and much of the footage ready. But the best pickup clip we could use into the credits is something that connects to one from the actual production. Currently the second "It's so Fluffy!" one would be my choice.

Everyone's just so busy apparently. This time last year all the regulars were active.

Ok, I just wanted to let you know that I haven't dropped out. I'll send you my video tomorrow afternoon.

At this rate, if nobody wants to do those, we may as well use those as fun ones and turn "It's so fluffy!" into the gag and do more of those ^^

I've sent in two "It's so fluffy" clips so far (including the original one) and I could possibly come up with a few more of those easier than the explosion clips. We can always use the explosion clips in the credits though as sort of an added extra though right?

I'd just rather dedicate time to one or the other so there aren't so many clips having to be sent. I can get working on clips for either I just need to know what to look for ^_^

First, I think the explosions should be the gag running throughout the episode through the end credits.
The dud clip just before the credits...not sure who was doing that one.
The "fluffy" gag should work too if it's only a few clips.

Also...I hope krvabo approves of this:

I sent in another one but don't know if you got that batch and or had seen any of the others I've sent since the first beta was sent out. I can pull together a few more fluffy ones no problem. I'll see if I can get them done tonight and tomorrow so they can be in before the deadline and I leave for my camping trip.

Hehe, pretty much what I pictured ^^ The explosion's rather pixelated though, maybe in the coming weeks we can find something more viable for that scene. Considering it'll be in the credits, perhaps we could get away with a huge nuke at that point...? Worth considering I guess. This is one of those instances where a human works, because everyone knows it's a tag and so it's an ironic usage ^^ I hope krvabo approves too.

It's your tag, krvabo, do you have a favorite explosion you love in any movie or anime?

All right everyone, this is my completed (first draft) of the intro. I REALLY REALLY want your impressions on it. Let me know if there's anything you think I could do to make it better, if you think something looks exceptionally off, just let me know. I can't promise too many massive changes but we have the time to fix it, and now's the time.
