AMV Salad 2: the Second Serving - we has download link!

This forum is for the announcement, organisation and discussion of Multi-Editor AMV Projects.

STATUS REPORT:

Although I have yet to hear from events staff about a definite day and time, the AMV Salad panel is a lock for TekkoshoCon.

Still pending are AMA, Anime Expo, and Otakon (although Mr. Westbrook seemed pretty positive already the Second Serving would find a prominent place among video programming - hopefully that translates to "fan parodies lead-in").

I threw all the clips I have from you all so far, including mine and the opening sequence, together in the editing program to estimate how much video we have. Currently, allowing for two minutes of closing credits (so far), the entire running time has almost reached eight minutes.

EIGHT MINUTES...

anyway, it's still pretty short. Even if we don't quite reach the 24-minute mark like last time, I see a substantial improvement over the first Salad in terms of humor.

But here's the bottom line: we have only two months left before we enter post-production. In the MEP world, that's not a lot of time but perhaps enough to recruit at least a few new producers from Tekko in about 11 days.

Keep the deadline of June 1 in mind but don't just throw any ol' thing together to fill space. I've had to shelf a few clips so far because of technical problems and simple lack of humor. Remember: you can't rush inspiration. Luckily, I have several new ideas but I don't want my material to dominate the project.

That's all for now...

RanMouri made a suggestion and I think it's time we made things a little more interesting around here.

I'm gonna throw a few challenges your way.

Let me give you two songs first:
(these are Megaupload links so they won't expire any time soon)

Valve: Still Alive
(lyrics)

Charlie Robison: Good Times
(lyrics

And the third challenge?

How about creating a clip with the audio from that Orbit gum commercial where those three people are calling each other names and talking nonsense ("What the french toast?"..."Pickle you, kumquat!").

AT LEAST one clip per challenge will be included on the final render.

If there are any other suggestions, email them to me. Otherwise, you have two weeks to submit for this challenge...

I know I'm late with the update from TekkoshoCon. I was sick from the Monday morning I got home until this past Tuesday night.

Anywho, the panel went okay. The only hitch was the video didn't output. I had to summon the tech gods to fix the problem, which took about ten minutes of waiting and another five or so to get things going.

Next stop seems to be Anime Mid Atlantic. I'm still awaiting confirmation from them as well as Anime Expo and Otakon (for the panel slot; the screening for the sequel is a go, albeit unscheduled).

One more month until post-production, everyone! We really need more clips!

Sorry for not submitting recently, but time's been scarce and, tech problems aside, I've been thoroughly uninspired. -.-*

The third challenge might work, if no one submitted an AMV, with clips from Ah! My Goddess, but I don't have the Orbit audio (or the logo). Do you know where I might find that? Limewire never properly downloaded for me.

Btw, sorry to hear about your tech problems, too.

The way I get audio from stuff I haven't downloaded is going to You Tube, playing the video, and recording the audio with something like Audacity (open source shareware). I then save the recording as mp3 and voila!..instant ripped audio. ;)

It's approaching crunch time and I'm wondering if anyone is receiving alerts when this thread is updated. I'm about to PM or email everyone on the current Salad roster to remind them about the upcoming deadline (June 1).

You all do remember that post-production begins on June 2, right? Just making sure.

Anyway, send me whatever you have because more clips are needed to fill time. Don't rush it and leave the comedy behind, though...

Easy idea

Postby Erokodomo » Mon May 12, 2008 8:34 am

So I was gonna do this one myself, but I've run out of time and still can't get my RAWs to work for some reason...plus I've been working on 5 new clips recently (will send this weekend probably).

Anyway, here's a quick clip anyone can do as long as you have Samurai Champloo Episode 15 (RAW or in English). Using the song "Can't Buy Me Love" by the Beatles, make a short clip of Mugen and Jin using their fake gold to buy girls in the red light district. I figure you could just use the lines "I don't care too, much for money...money can't buy me love" and maybe a bit of the following refrain if you want.

I thought this idea was hilarious, and it shouldn't be too taxing to complete. It would be a shame to let this one slip by, so I thought I'd offer it up to anyone. I'd really like to see this clip in the final product. Won't somebody make my dreams come true??? (Hand to forehead and dramatic pose)

Gah, I totally wasn't receiving updates. I'm gonna try to upload my clips and finish some more. I can't remember which I sent you, so I'm just gonna reupload em all again.

Thanks to all who have responded to my pleas for clips by sending some in! I'm going to email anyone who has already contributed but haven't been heard from in a while about the approaching deadline.

Seriously, I won't have room to extend the final date by even a day.

This site has had some serious issues with people not receiving alerts to thread updates. I'm a hair away from contacting the admins about it.

If we get 15 minutes, start to finish, from this year's compilation I shall be satisfied.

As far as AMV Salad 3: Three Bean Casserole, there will be a theme. Submissions will be accepted starting the Monday after Otakon. Stay tuned for further details *heh heh*...

STATUS REPORT

I am beginning the construct of AMV Salad 2 while awaiting what I HOPE will be the final rush of last-minute submissions. I will be also putting the closing credits together so, if you haven't already, get those production tags in!

I'll post again soon about how much video we have thus far...

One week until the submission deadline!

Get those last-minute clips in to me ASAP.

Individual PMs / emails will go out tomorrow in case some aren't receiving thread update alerts.

BTW, AMV Salad is a go for AMA in three weeks...

Hey there, I'm one of the guys who was at the AMV Salad panel at Tekko. 8-)

Are submissions still open? I've got at least one clip I've been anxious to submit for AMV Salad 2. Unfortunately my computer's been fritzy till late, so I'm just starting work on the clip (should be done before June 1st).
