AMV - Signs of Hope and Light

CodeZTM · Post by **CodeZTM** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 9:33 pm

Wow. I never thought I would ever do something like this, but I finally decided that it would be something neat for me to do with my free time. (I do have jobs, but I also have 4 days off from them)

First off, I want to say that this project is not to be meant as something dead serious. This is for FUN! I want everyone to have fun with this project, and for everyone to have a great time making AMV's. That's what this website was created for, wasn't it!

Second off, while this is meant to be FUN, I do want this to be finished, not in the "dead" list. So therefore, there will be deadlines that need to be met. They won't be "crunch time" deadlines, but regular deadlines that need to be met.

Now for the project description..

This project is called "AMV - Signs of Hope and Light". This project is about the more happy and sentimental aspects of anime. This means that only happy/romantic/comical/perky songs and anime will be accepted.

I want the AMV to be around 15-20 minutes, so I will need a good amount of participants, but this can change.

Any level of AMV editor is welcome.

(Bangs head on desk) - I will accept as a minimum of editing as Windows Movie Maker. While I don't really enjoy WMM, I will accept this for one and only one reason only. I see too many multi-editor projects that don't allow these means of editing, and I see this as unfair to people who don't have the means to get other systems of editing. I highly recommend that you use Adobe Premier or other editing systems, but I will accept WMM.

There will be a fairly easy timeline system. Here is what I am planning on.

Introduction (3-4Minutes)
Scene 1 AMV's (1-2 Minutes each)
Intermission (1-3 Minutes)
Scene 2 AMV's (1-2 Minutes each)
Conclusion (3-4 Minutes)
Credits (Code Chrono)

I will be doing my own AMV, but you guys are free to pick ANY anime, as long as it stays with the theme of the project. Just fill out the following form (required).

I want this AMV to be great, and I hope that many people will sign up.

Thanks,

*Savvy loves the happy-sappy stuff ^^*

Anime: Nishi no Yoki Majo ~ Astraea Testament
Song: I Should Tell You [from Rent, the musical]
How Long You Think It Would Take To Complete: uh, a week at the earliest, and a month at the most [I don't know, I'm guessing here XD]

Just curious, if songs go slightly over 2 minutes, is that unacceptable 0.o?

OMG - I am so sorry you guys! I messed up my timeline! Stupid Microsoft Word... I copy and pasted the wrong page. What you guys saw was just a rough draft of the idea. This is what it really should be:

Introduction (3-4Minutes)
Track 1 (2-3 Minutes) - Reserved for Hinano
Track 2 (2-3 Minutes) - Reserved for savvy_style
Track 3 (2-3 Minutes)
Track 4 (2-3 Minutes)
Intermission (1-2 Minutes)
Track 5 (2-3 Minutes)
Track 6 (2-3 Minutes)
Track 7 (2-3 Minutes)
Track 8 (2-3 Minutes)
Conclusion (3-4 Minutes)
Credits (Code Chrono)

Anyway, Hinano, just send me the info in a later post. If you want to use something you already created, just send me a beta version of it, and I will either OK it, or reject it. Savvy_style, everything is approved for you, so go ahead and get started. Don't worry about time length though, I can be flexible, but I do kind of want to get this all done before August/September.

Thanks,
Code

sorry, I clicked submit twice so that's why there's a double post.

This looks really interesting! I'll have to think about the music/anime combination.

You can check out my main fuzzy-feel-good video: She's Got a Way or for comedy: My Fair...Lady?

I'll take Track 6, if that's okay.

K guys, you can go ahead and get started, but for those who haven't given me an anime/song, make sure and post it pretty soon.
