See my signature for audition. Be sure to turn the volume up, as I may have mastered it a bit low... :twisted:

Everyone here knows each other pretty well for the most part. These threads tend to get some lighthearted trolling, primarily due to some of the reasons pointed out by Ileia. The majority of these threads are indeed seen as randomly cast fishing lines that don't really bring anything in. This is actually one of the first "Audition for my Studio" threads I've seen that has gotten more than a post or two before sinking off the page so it actually may have a chance at getting a bit more attention.
A quick search through general AMV will reveal a decent amount of these types of threads in recent times, and they never really gain any traction beyond Castor Troy attempting to be leader of them all. :P To say the least, they don't tend to go over very well.

According to the original post a member of the administration is part of the studio so if there was anything that he felt was an attack against his new studio I'm sure he'd have stepped in at this point considering it's reached 3 pages.

Personally, I am also of the opinion that a studio is something that should be formed with friends and people that are actually interested in working with each other. As it was already mentioned, studios are typically seen as ways for editors to learn and grow in their editing but are far from the only way to accomplish this goal. I've been around for quite a while now and I can't recall any random studios that were put together sticking it out for very long but I can name loads of which that are still together since they started as friends before uniting together under a single studio name. I've also know a large amount of people that have become excellent editors and made long lasting friendships without ever even wanting to join a studio. This again though, is just my personal opinion and doesn't really affect the topic at hand.

I see. But I find myself it's difficult as, let alone editor friends, my friends don't even want to watch my AMV (idk if it's AMV in general or just my AMV) while I'm seeking for opinion which I need as I'm an amateur and I know nobody that have experience in video editing. So making a studio with a friend is a no go for me. But seeing what most people here said that "Audition for my Studio" is a bad idea make me don't wanna join any :rofl:

Haha, there is no reason to rush into anything just because you're hoping to get some opinions on your work. Don't worry if you're not getting tons of responses right off the bat.
One of the best ways to meet people is to take a minute and see what they've got to offer. Check out some of the AMV Announcement threads and leave some feedback, or try chatting with some people in a thread that interests you. One of the worst ways to try and meet people is just to say "This is my video, talk to me." since it looks like a very one sided situation with a single person seeking attention but not willing to give any back. Sometimes you've got to give a bit first before you start to see it returned to you.

If you end up finding a studio with people you enjoy and get along with, awesome! If you stick it out alone and do your thing without a studio, also awesome! Just try to enjoy yourself and you'll get to where you're supposed to be in the end. ;)

I'm sure when you decide to start editing again, you'll make a great leader for your studio. Would be interesting to have a head to head challenge one day with another editor from when I first started.

Anyways I'm going to try and find editors that I know, or some that I have helped on this site to see if they would like to join.

What I am offering is a chance to be apart of a studio where we can learn off each other, work on projects together, and help spread each others works. I'm working on what else we can offer you as a studio besides a group to hang with online and work on projects. However I think it is a good chance for people to come together and expand on their skills.

I am also looking for people to be active in the group. Having discussions about projects or various other things.

Studios are not for everybody. I figure I would give it a try, seeing how a lot of my old studio does not edit anymore.

Except that koopiskeva's made three videos in the past month or so, Rozard and Nessephanie both made some earlier this summer, and Kham is pretty active when it comes to live action videos. Check yo'self.
