Hi, everyone:
In case you can't tell, I don't post here very often. However, let me say that it's really great to see such a high level of interest for the next project; it's certainly a motivating factor! I wanted to pop in and get a few things out in the open. First off, like I mentioned, we're super-stoked to see people chiming in with their excitement about another project. The first "Doomrider" DBZ AMV Project has played at several conventions, panels, and various showings across the world. It's certainly been a success.
We would like people to keep in mind that like the first project, the next project will continue to be invite-only. At this point in time, no tracks are spoken for. We are in pre-production and are gaguing interest among editors from the previous project and making our audio selection. There will, of course, be "new blood" on the upcoming project, but let me reiterate that it will continue to be invite-only and that no tracks are spoken for or otherwise assigned.
If you are an editor that was not involved with the last project and are interested in being considered for the next project, here's a couple things to keep in mind:
- Editors will be given footage from the 2006 "Dragon Box: The Movies" release in Japan.
- Editors need to understand how to edit VOB files with AVS scripting. Editors will be expected to do color-correction and other basic filtering. Furthermore, editors must understand how to edit with progressive and anamorphic footage.
- Please watch the first project for an idea at the quality level we're shooting to exceed with the next project. If you are unable to edit at a level similar to the tracks presented in the last one, perhaps this project isn't for you.
- Editors with notable DBZ experience are given higher priority over similarly-qualified peers.
If you're interested in being considered and understand the above, all you need to to is just say that you're interested. As mentioned several times, this is an invite-only project. You will be contacted when the time comes; let me assure you that we do our research. To put it in slightly legal-ese, your simply posting an interest is
*not* equivalent to us extending an offer or contract for "employment" in the next project.
Anyway, let me just once again say how exciting it is to see such a high level of interest in another project. It's definitely got the potential to blow away the first one, if that's even possible! :D
