I can do deeper, it just takes a bit of effort.

Alright. I think the possible advantage is that you have no accent to contend with

Hmm, perhaps we can have a vote on this too or something.

Getting a higher quality song will be impossible for two reasons the first is that I do not have the cd to rip the song from and second i edited the song down a bit and probably would never be able to recreate it just right.

ahh, I see...

Well re-editing it down might be possible, unless it's really re-mixed in some tricky fashion, but the source is the bigger concern of course.

Ok I went out and bought the Third Eye Open CD and I will rip it with the highest quality i can and then will try to edit it to what I used for the video. Also will going from mp3 to wav to mp3 even at the highest quality hurt the final file?

It will to a degree, you can minimize the hurt by using a high bitrate on the mp3, but its much better to forgo the mp3 all together and edit it in wav only if at all possible.

Yeah. Not to mention that Premiere and Mp3s don't get along.

why don't you reapply the original .wav after editing?

Hooray, time for clarifications and stuff.

NEW VIDEO GUIDELINES (Aimed mostly at potential new editors.)

- It must use fullscreen footage.
- It must have instrumental music.
- This is not limited to current project members.
[EDIT: forgot about this one before] - With VERY few exceptions, it must be a new, unreleased video.

(Obviously, that was the easy part.)

- The project is titled "Animasia." Don't forget about the whole "Fantasia" aspect.

- Contribution to this project does not end with a video. You must write a commentary piece to go with your segment. You must be okay with revealing your full name and possibly a photograph of yourself for the credits. If there are any betas out, you are highly encouraged (if not expected, by me) to comment on them.

- You must take a serious approach to this project. This is not a MEP bandwagon that anybody can jump on. The video must be well thought-out and executed. After all, it's getting the so-called VIP treatment, with commentaries and painstakingly recorded voice-overs, and wrapped up in an elegant theme. You, and the rest of us, should feel that your video is WORTH all of that.

- The deadline is August 23. I'd prefer to have them all in by Otakon. (August 19.) There is little room for flexibility, so I am not going to discuss that at this time. Please be serious about this, guys. Despite all the previous interest, nobody had mentioned anything to me on July 23.

- Your finished video will be voted upon by the current project members. When you've finalized your video, drop me a note and I'll tell you where to upload it on Kalium's server. The rest of us will take care of the voting.

- If your video is accepted, you must be able to get the other components to me ASAP.
__________________

VOTING GUIDELINES (Current project members, pay attention to this.)

- All new videos will be subject to voting. That includes mine and those coming from other current project members.

- All current project editors are eligible for voting. This includes downwithpants, ooshna, songbird, bakadeshi, otohiko, rose4emily, pen-pen, anubisx00, chris nguyen, and me.

- Voting will be blind. Kalium will collect and tally our votes. Once you've watched the final video, PM him with your decisions, under an appropriate subject title.

- Majority rules, but there must be at least 3 yes's for a video to be accepted. We've got plenty of eligible voters. I do NOT want to hear about a 2:1 decision where only three votes were cast total.

...

I think that's all.

Next up: stuff about the commentary voice-overs...

ok i guess I will not be able to do my plan with using entirely images for my videos seeing as premiere can't handle the 60,000+(after cuting out all the odd numbered images) pictures so I will have to try a new aproach. As for the music for Simplicity I can do a wav and use only a wav it will just take a long time to upload.
