For a simple vid with a long anime (50+ episodes), I average two weeks, getting 5-6 hrs per day and 30-48 hrs on the weekends. The first week is usually spent ripping, and the last weekend on combing for glitches an encoding. So, usually a week of editing if I have the weekends free.
If I already have the footage ripped, or if it's a short anime, I can make a vid in a day (20hrs), preferably a Saturday.
For a complicated vid, my record is over 3 months. I stopped paying attention to the hours because it would have been depressing.
I don't like leaving a video alone, so I tend to work on it during all my free time till it's finished. If I walk away for a while, I'm more likely to delete the entire thing when I get back and start a new project. I have a very short attention span, so when inspiration hits I wallow in it for fear of taking a breath and jumping to a different idea. >.>
