I've been curious, I know that for myself, I either keep a few specific points in my mind, or just improvise after I start. The only thing I know being what type of amv I wish make. I would expect this, or some variation thereof is common for quite a lot of people. What I'm more interested in is those of you who make extensively pre-conceptualized amvs, with immaculate attention to detail. I can only assume these have at the very least phrase by phrase planning. Do you make a traditional storyboard? Do you have a written system? Do you store it all in your massive brain? Come and tell.
Of course, I'd also like everybody to share their methods. Even if the extent of your planning is anime+song, feel free to pipe in.
