I'm partial to making bouncy, fast-paced videos. Considering that I love magical girl anime, it's not surprising. I use footage from my favorite series, and magical girl shows tend to be rather cute, light-hearted affairs. I've done a sentimental AMV, but it was harder to finish, and I don't rewatch it as much as my other ones.

Exactly, we need more 25 minute Pro videos.

You own me 1 DVD-R plus shipping and handling. :P

Depending on my mood, or what little inspiration hits, that's what I'll make. If other people like it, that's cool. If not... meh. Feedback is great, and I have learned a lot from all that I've received, but I'm doing this for fun.

I like to watch Comedy vids the most.. funny things that are silly corney and sometimes cheezy... but not "heart transition" cheezy... keep your transitions non-heart and its all good...

but for the most part thats what I like to make as well... comedy... that usually ends up being "cheese for cheese" :) or just really corney lyric sync (in a funny way)

funny though :shock: my top few favorite videos are drama/sentimental... I just feel like I suck at making those. Though my "dramatic" videos seem to be more popular than my funny ones...

ah well :)

I also like trying to expand into several directions...

I seem to make vids that are considered "trippy" by people who've probably never taken a hallucinogenic substance in their lives.

I like making original vids that arent actualy much other than generic moody fluff (well edited fluff) edited to a song that most people here would otherwise never hear.

I hate making fun videos. Tried to make one, but now looking back it was just not the thing I wanted to express. Another bad pint about fun vids for me is that a lot of the new ones use Azumanga. Nothing against the series, but it just sucks to see Azu in every new fun amv. Just as said videos with a thought behind them (plot expressed by scene-usage) are the best. It may seem to some kinda old-school, however that'S my favorite so far

Crappy quality and editing are not "effects."
Nor are subtitles, or pop-frames. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you captured the AS footage and just need to learn how to compress footage.

I guess my favorite kind of video to make is a really fast-paced action and/or comedy. (Though I have yet to make a pure action-vid without any comical elements, so I'm partial to comedy.) However, I always need a point with a vid I make, so they usually turn out as character profiles as well.

I do have one (or two) sentimental videos planned for the future, but it's definitely not something that will become a habit. I usually can't even stand watching them myself.

I make whatever I want to make. If I have a comedy idea, I edit comedy. If I have an action idea, I edit action. If I have a drama idea (I seem to have many of these), I edit drama. I don't care if don't like them, because I do, or else I wouldn't edit them.

not even sure I did that right ~_~

Either way let me say something real quick.

No one asked you what you thought of someone's video on this thread. If you have a problem with their video making methods, then take it to PM's. Insults and comments like that is something I would expect from a third grader.

My advise would be to just shut up before someone actually gets on and makes to take a foot up the a**.

As for the topic, I'm not that great at action videos so I try to stay away from them. I enjoy a good drama one that comes out really well.

I sux at amvs I only have 1 one on the .org but I like doing character profiles and it depends on what anime I've watched recently as well.
