AMV Fame, the musical. Act 1 Scene 1.
Enter noob from stage right, noob is carrying an armful of dvd's full of fansubs and downloaded mp3's. Noob trips in middle of stage, dropping the cd's everywhere. Cue rain sound effects.
Cue violins, as noob drops to knees and looks to the sky.
Noob: "WHY GOD, WHY"
Cue I TRIED SOO HAAAARRDDD AND GOT SOOO FAAAARRRR
Noob: "ONE DAY, I DUNNO WHY, IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER HOW HARD I TRY" (while tapdancing)
(no seriously, do it cause you love it, not for fame...and if you like that kind of thing, lurk more/come to cons/stuff, get INVOLVED.)

I am shocked that not a single person in this thread has truthfully answered or attempted to help the OP.
I've been around AMVs a long time and am known as a straight shooter so I will not bullshit this man. The key to becoming famous as an AMV creator is to go to conventions and get crunk in the AMV room. It is not enough to just get crunk though. You must be a true AMV baller and know all the handsigns to flash. You also need to have the bling bling from the dealers room to floss.
To help set you on your way I am going to violate the secret society of cool AMV creators. Below you will find the official famous AMV creator chant. Get crunk and belt this out during an AMV competition at your local convention and you are sure to become famous.
We fly high, No Lie ,You know this (BALLIN!)
Foreign rides, outside, its like showbiz
We fly high, No Lie ,You know this (BALLIN!)
Hips and Thighs, Oh my, Stay focus

I think you described how to become INFAMOUS.godix wrote:Here's the truth on how to become at least semi-popular. Be an asshole. Seriously. It works. Your motto in life should be 'If you can't say something mean to someone then you just haven't thought about it enough'. That is the key to popularity. And not just on the org, that there is pretty good advise on how to live your life as well.
And, to Ileia, I'll take that hair or some skin cells. Then it's cloning time!

Re: How do you get fame here?
The hell? 1k+ hits means your popular? That's an odd metric.godix wrote:It's been somewhat recently pointed out to me that almost all my videos have over 1k hits which actually makes me at semi-popular.
I'd figure more substantial things like actual downloads...

Networking ...
On the Org you need to hang with the right people ... (Kinda like High School)
At cons, being on or running panels ....
Making a good video will get you reconized by a few people ... and if they are popular, people might start to watch your videos ....
Overall though, "Fame" here is fleeting and meanless .... (though it can be fun)
