Use a less cool reference, like Haruhi's Endless Eight.

And mkvs are container files which is why editing programs don't take them (someone correct me if I'm wrong.) But if you're downloading mkv episodes, you're going to end up making an avi out it either way. Probably shouldn't be downloading anime anyhow, but we're all a bit guilty of that Nonetheless, I'll still say it: don't download anime, buy the dvds!Zanzaben wrote:Ok so I feel like I am doing this incredibly wrong right now. For me all of my anime are .mkv files (so that I can turn the subs on or off for when I am watching or working on a AMV). However Premier Pro doesn't like it when I try to import an mkv file so I go down and hunt for the clips each time (watching 1 or 2 episodes at a time at 4-8 times speed) . Once I find a clip I record that part into an uncompressed avi and throw that into Premier Pro. The problem I run into is that all my avi clips are massive in size so I can't really keep them. I am positive I am doing this in one of the most inefficient ways possible so people with experience in the video world a better method would be much appreciated.

There are some editors who's probably maxed out all of the available slots in their computers or use laptops.Rendakor wrote:I don't understand why people buy external drives instead of additional internal drives.

I actually do something similar to this. Like paco I throw all the episodes in Vegas. Then I watch episode by episode and create subclips with the scenes that might fit my song/story/etc. It's a bit like rewatching an entire anime, but since I only work with animes I've seen, I usually know what I'm looking for so I don't even play the episodes, I just zoom in to look at the frames. Of course sometimes, when I have more time, I do end up rewatching some of my favorite episodes lolpacotacoshell wrote:I throw all the episodes in Vegas, turn on the song that I'm editing to on repeat, and then get every possible clip that fits for my story. Then after that, I sift through everything again, looking for the ones that I really like out of the bunch. Then I just start editing. Sometimes if I have over an hour or two worth of clips, then I have to repeat step 3 and sift through them again.
