I was hooking up my speakers again because someone broke the wire on my cheap headphones and an idea came to me. Why couldn't an entire AMV project be in 5.1 audio? Sure there have been AMV's that used 5.1 before but not a whole project. And I was also thinking about making an Evangelion + Cowboy Bebop vid with the 5.1 audio remaster of Bohemian Rhapsody or maybe the Weird Al cover of it.
This project will use Bohemian Rhapsody off of Queen's A Night at the Opera album in DVD audio.
This project will use FIVE SYNCED TRACKS OF VIDEO. BOOM.
Yes, five. One for LFront, RFront, LRear, RRear, and Center.
This project may be edited in 1600x240 or in five 320x240 video tracks.
As for anime, this project is open to whatever you want to use. Some parts have already been synced extremely well to Bebop and Evangelionin in other amv's. Maybe you want to use scenes from several anime series/movies at once. However, this will be FIVE TRACKS OF VIDEO. The possibilities are great.
As for how to divide the song up, it should be a natural division of where the song changes mood/tempo. I'll leave it up to whoever feels they have the best idea. Also, it may be possible to show tracks by five different editors running concurrently for brief periods of time instead of one editor doing all five video tracks.
I know what you're thinking.. How will this be displayed at a con or on a monitor that's not at 1600 res? Nature will find a way. Build it.. and they will hook up five projectors.
As for coordiating the project, I could do that through email, but the project isn't that long. The forum should be better because everyone gets to look at the feedback and make suggestions.
So for now we should determine what parts will be done by one editor/five editors and who has an idea for those sections.
