  • First Journal Entry.....about bloody time! 2006-01-23 06:31:37 Here we are, first journal entry of mine on the wonderful amv.org

    I've been a member here for more than a year, I've downloaded amv's here and there over the early months, mostly ones that I've seen at friends houses' or anime clubs etc. But I've recently begun coming here A LOT.....mainly due to the fact that I got to check up on dem star rankings and see if my averages are getting any better.

    I made the jump from casual downloader (1 or 2 a month) to fanatic (at least a couple per week...now almost daily) starting in late october 2005 (three months ago for those who can count).

    I also made the jump from just viewer to creator in Nov. of 2005 when I finally recieved a laptop with dvd reading(and decrypting) technology. My latest vid, the
    "Denial of Destruction" I have a good feeling about compared to my first four others, I think I'm already transcending from that point of "foolish noobery" to "getting the hang of it".

    What I find hilarious about amv creators is almost everyone (there are some exceptions) but almost everyone creates utter crap their first couple of vids (whether or not they or their friends like to admit it or not) and then they start to create semi-pro ones after their 6th or 7th one....and then by the time they've reached 10 they usually have at least gotten the graces of many of the other pro's. But even when they get 3's or 2's or if they really, really blow 1's...they don't give up...and they keep making em. Amv editors all have the bushidou spirit....and nerdy-ness

    I love amv's.....because they are a delicious combination of artistic expression of three different forms. A music artist, an anime director....and an emo depressed kid with lots of free time and a computer....oh yeah...and teenage angst......can't forget that.

    Oh yes.....and..........if I ever see another DBZ/linkin park video or a chop suey/eva video again....I will turn into a giant allasaurus and eat you all!
