Profile: Holy shit, I log into this account two years later and read this shit. Holy fuck was I a pretentious douchebag!

I'm just starting out, I hope to release some quality amvs onto the internet, and this seems like a good place to get them noticed. I actually have rules for my editing:

1: Either try something original or try something that you think can improve an AMV you thought had the right song and anime, but wasn't perfect
2: Use anime footage, no manga or fan art
3: Match the cuts with the music and vocal beats
4: Look through as much footage as you can/hold on to footage in editing
5: Listen to the song your using and listen to it A LOT
6: Pace yourself
7: Cutting and Editing: The most important tool at your disposal, more than any effect or filter, smart editing will save your video more than any other post-editing effect you may use. This is what’ll match your shots, what will make your video flow, what will match your song with your video and vice versa, it is the way to make a good AMV, it seems a ton of people have forgotten about that, but don’t you forget, smart editing will save you more than any other tool you have, so use it smart, and use it well.
