You all have always been welcome to suggest these things for ReHeated.
I've been waiting on everyone else.
Never mind being burned out over the turbulent ride that was Katsucon.
But yeah...new material for AMVS6 and suggestions for ReHeated are needed so as soon as you all are ready (like, say, last week :P )...

Deuce, I don't think anyone but you or I knew it was confirmed officially, and you never mentioned you were ready for it.

Anyway, everyone, we have about 10 extra minutes for Re-Heated that Scott has allowed for us. So we can get in some of the clips we nixed if we want to, and also choose some more. So if you have any desired clips you'd like in that were an audience hit, now's the time to bring them up.

I'm off to work today, so I'll do my best to look through when I get off today. But the big question is whether or not everyone thinks we should include AMVS5 stuff as well, or keep Reheated more of a 'classic' one.

I say we keep a year buffer in between the current project and ReHeated.
We can think about updating it with scenes from AMVS5 after we premiere AMVS6 at Otakon.
For now, we should work on tweaking ReHeated and *ahem* submitting for this year's Salad. ;)

In that case, that makes things simpler. I ran into some time problems, so let me get started on finding clips and making suggestions for clip moves in a bit since tomorrow is my day off.

Right off the bat though, the ending has to be changed since AMVS5 isn't part of it of course. Should be changed to something about more fanparodies coming up (assuming we're first <.<) I'd like to see Rap Chop and Clannad clips added back in if at all possible. I realized that my Clannad one was too early in AMVS4, and it showed up right after Rubber Ducky, so everyone was very mellowed and it kind of just jumps into a parody clip without and buildup. I'll try to find a place that'll work for it.

Your 'smoke' clips are a bit out of order I think, and you're missing the one where it kind of cycles through colors and then he says 'smoke' like he's on helium. I always liked that one, so I think we should add it in.

Plus now we can get the rest of the Geico Money clips in. And I honestly believe we need to arrange them correctly again. They were strongest in their AMVS4 order. I think we have to get the Azumanga and Haruhi ones back in there so it regains its flow.

There were a couple more I think could be added as well, I'll take another look tonight. I'm working on my second clip, it's being a tough one.

Aaaaand I was called in to work... kay, give me a bit more time to consider what rearranging might work.

For now though, on top of the ones I suggested above, I think we can consider these for adding:

AMVS1 -
Shiny Teeth (I honestly really just like this one a lot)

AMVS2 -
I'll be Watching You
Davie Crockette with Ouran
and Simpsons Death Note

AMVS3 -
Black Butler
Gurren Lagann - On A Boat
Excel Saga - Bleed and Puke

AMVS4-
If it doesn't make it too long, I liked the South Park with Gravitation one quite a bit.
EDIT: Oh yes, and if possible, the second part of the Haruhi clip

Anyone have any other thoughts?

Like I mentioned earlier, one thing I noticed is going too quickly into a talking clip can be a bit disjointed. In AMVS5, the use of the Haruhi clip with imouto shooting Kyon actually worked because the silence was the buildup, while if there was talking, it would have been more out of place. It helped me realize something about overall flow, and I think we can make that work here.

Anyway, here's my thoughts.
Spoiler :
Haruhi Dragonforce - I'd like to try putting this up front right after the intro card. It is an amazing way to up the energy.
Dane Cook FMA, Bird is the Word, Head On and Death Note Squirrely - I think the clips chosen early on are a bit too old school to begin with, so I suggest moving those a bit back and bring...
FMA Ingredients - this clip to second. It's a classic of yours Deuce and musical while being 'talky' so it blends well. After that...
Rubber Ducky - Rubber Ducky's best up front like in AMVS4 due to its slow speed. Then...
Eva Phone Call - Instead of using a talker right after like in AMVS4, I think this one is great. Upbeat, funny, and also talky to a degree. Great blend and one of my favorites.

Here is where the four clips from the beginning followed by the Azumanga Alcohol song would fit best I think. That should make the beginning flow nicely with only minor adjustments.

I think laughter might drown out some clips that we have, which is the other main reason I wanted to do this. Remember that Otakon's reaction really can drown out things and ruin clips if you lose the first few seconds unlike smaller places, so with that in mind, here's some places I think can work.

(New)Shiny Teeth - Putting this in right after Naruto Captain Planet could work pretty well.
Jojo Drive Down Street - I think this one would fit better right after Bomberman since it starts quickly.
Geico Money Tenchi - This should be moved back to make room for the other two that are missing to show up I think. Maybe after Haruvi Baadoman.
I have to get to sleep now for work, but there's some movement with the clips at the end that I think can be done to strengthen the overall production. Like there are some good ones, but I think we have more strong ones in the center and I think we should move a few of the stronger ones back to the end to go out with a bang. I'll bring them up later though.

Anyone else have any thoughts on the content or any of my suggestions?

I'll be heading on a trip until April 1st, but I'll be bringing materials with me and try to make another clip in between park-hopping at Disney World... ...and that being said, I don't expect to get too much done until I get back :D

I just tonight finished my second clip.

http://davidkrein.net/MononokeTest.rar

Let me know what you guys think. It's another pretty long one, mainly because quite honestly I couldn't think of a better place to start it considering the scene buildup and the dialogue. If you all have an idea for where it could be started, let me know, I'll give it a shot. And why the hell do I always want to make stuff that requires so much masking :|

I'll try to make a few more suggestions for AMVSReheated tomorrow as well before I leave. Mostly everything else is pretty strong, just some more 'laughter leeway' clip movements so laughter doesn't drown as much stuff out based on the clips' impact in previous years.

Is anyone else active right now? I'm feelin' kinda lonely :cry:

Awesome! Look forward to seeing it!

And thanks :) Watching it from beginning to end makes me laugh at the absurdity even though I created it, but like I said, if you think the intro is too long, please tell me where you might think a better start location would be. Right now it's 30 seconds of pure Mononoke footage, but the length of the buildup just seems to work in terms of lulling the watcher into a pace with the scene and then just pulling the rug out from under them. That's the intention anyway, but there may be a better way I just haven't thought of.

Well, you could start the clip at "The forest bear brought you back to life..."

I'll try to render my newest one today...

Going back to the subject of themes, would "Food" work?
