x 2

Lyric sync can make or break a video for me, whereas I can overlook bad action sync.

It was also my first video.

First video...Very well said considering the fact that it was his 1st video to. He might not have lived in the org world for 3 years and might not have noticed the Linkin Park/DragonBall numbers.

But was it Linkin Park? No. Was it Dragonball? No.
I've already put you both to shame because of the siple fact that you've both made videos with Dragonball. Losers.

Again

. I think the quote from one sig I've noticed says it all:"Don't judge an AMV by it's anime, you n00b!" Watch the videos before you make such comments. My last 2 videos are, according to all the feedback I got, in the top of originality when it's up to DBZ. Watch first then judge. Even when you watch...:"Don't judge an AMV by it's anime, you n00b!"

As for the "loser" comment...that equals to self-pawnage. Some of the best creators on the org used to and still like to use DB/Z/GT for the videos since the footage is very interesting. Mery or VegettoEX for example.

I don't need to justify my previous choices, especially to your punk ass

Did I ask you to? I actually like Prodigy, especially that song, I only made that statement as a comparission. How can you judge ones taste when you're not entitled to? Become a music maker or a music journalist and then criticise one's taste since that's what's journalism is about.

I'm already in a position to judge things.

You're not.

I've seen enough videos to be able to judge most by their combination.

Out of curiosity, how has that video gotten <b>70</b> ops in just a month of existence?

Before i put in my 2 cents worth, id like 2 ask 4 some help. in attempting 2 use clips off dvd's and windows movie maker ive encountered errors. could some1 plz give me the names of programs that would assist me in the following:
1. a movie maker that uses '.vob' files
2. something that converts '.vob' files to '.mpeg', '.wav', etc.
3. something that rips dvds and creates the above files
4. a movie maker that is as easy to use as movie maker, yet also allows more effects (eg. background video)
could u plz only post these programs if they r free and work on windows XP.

TIMING!. i have seen approx 50 amvs be4 i even began 2 create them, and only a couple of these have what i call, proper timing. now im not talking about that lyric sync crap (while sometimes cool, not 2 b used 2 often), but genuine timing. i want 2 see explosions, drama, action when a song hits a high point, NOT in the middle of a slow verse. all i have been seeing up 2 now r amv's that have huge (and i mean HUGE!) slabs of clips which may (by some fluke chance) hit a high in the chorus, but never continue timing past that point. a prime example would be a DBZ amv i downloaded a while ago which was set to 'linkin park - faint'. not only was the amv obviously created from more famous dbz amv's, but it had not timing and a huge explosion was used in the middle of a drum section. it has become slightly sadening.

However, i am yet 2 see any other members amv's (as a newbie its kinda hard 2 figure out everything early on) but i have slightly higher expectations than i have 4 most providers. DONT LET ME DOWN!

Personally, i have created 2 amv's 2 date. a DBZ set 2 'LINKIN PARK - LYING FROM YOU' and a final fantasy set 2 'EVANESCENCE - BRING ME @ LIFE'. i am yet 2 post these anywhere, yet i am eager (once i find some time) 2 do so. these clips were created 4 the purpose of "TIMING", explosions where they should be and emotion where it should also be. there is no lyric sync (if there is i must punish myself) and has no deeper meaning (that might be my next one, if i had more anime clips 2 use) but it has good timing and thats all i care about after seeing certain rubbish amv's. the DBZ amv is my favourite and i will let u no if i eva post it.

PS> i'd also appreciate if any1 could post websites that have anime clips i could use 4 future clips, thanx(in advance...i hope...)

Don't even bother asking for help here

Everyone will just shout at you to go find them on your own. As for the vids you've made, I highly recommend against posting them. Both of the ideas have been heavily overused to death.

One of the reasons that you see all of those clips without timing is because you keep on downloading from the same source. There is plenty of n00bs who get into AMV making by creating DragonBallZ amv's, and there first though is that it's awesome and they post it here. Download from a different category, and you'll notice quite a difference.

One last rule: Learn some grammar and punctuation. It's hard on the eyes to read posts like that.

I bet half the people who gave opinions are his/her friends.
