Your "Smoke" blip is the recurring one I mentioned above. I filtered it into black and white for every appearance and messed with some special effects with each one after the third. They're not unrecognizable from the original, though. I think you'll approve.


Wow, I hadn't realized I'd sent so much in. I trust you to make the right decision for what you did. It's supposed to be a running gag, so do whatever you'd like.

Looking forward to the final product.
And I thought nobody read these.

UPDATE:

Maru-sha is feeling less than fantastic today. Send her some hugs and good feelings, please?

Anyway, I just emailed those of you who contributed clips a download link to the end-credits-less beta of AMV Salad 2: the Second Serving. Please do NOT pass it around until after its Otakon premiere.

Speaking of, Mr. Westbrook has graciously extended the parody submission deadline to June 20. That ONLY means there is still time enough to iron out any glitches and finish the credits before I have to upload it to their server.

Dezbo21:
I didn't use your "Shippo" clip last time because the video did some weird pixelation thing for a couple of seconds near the end. I thought it may have been a problem with the editing program or something so I tried again this time. The same thing happened. If you still have it in storage, could you please have a look at it and make sure it's not just me? I mean, you'll see what I'm talking about when the clip comes up near the end of the Salad. All I'd have to do is delete the original from the timeline and drop a new, glitch-free copy in its place. I'd much appreciate it.

I have yet to hear from AMA (this weekend) about the exact time and day for the AMV Salad panel.

On a related note, NekoCon (November 7-9) has already offered me options for when I'd like the Salad panel to take place this year. Very impressive.

Oh yeah...there are two or three clips which could have made this Salad NC-17 had certain scenes gone a second or two further. I'm not complaining, mind you. I had a few good :shock: moments but I think we'll be good for TV-14 (DSL) again.

I'll have a few meaningless statistics up later. Concerning the collaboration, I'll probably put the video info up on the 'org for your profiles before I upload or link to Salad 2. It might make a good teaser for anyone going to Otakon. ;)

I think that's all I have for now. Post your reviews and comments here.

Thanks again to you all for being so many kinds of awesome...

I'll get you that clip ASAP.

As far as the beta goes, I feel it's a little more raunchy than funny, but that's just me.
I think some of the cons may keep it to late night showings only.
And I thought nobody read these.

Just watched it. . . . XD

That was many kinds of awesome. I laughed out loud throughout most of it, and the recurring "Smoke" bit was fabulous. Great job, guys! Can't wait to hear how it's received.

Whoever did the periodic table song, you are amazing. Best combination EVAR. xD

Looks absolutely fantastic. :3 Once a few video glitches are fixed it'll be supremely excellent. ^-^ ...Please tell me we'll be doing a Salad 3? *wishful*

Yes, there will be a third. It shall be called AMV Salad 3: Three Bean Casserole. Keep an eye on this thread around August for the details on a new thread and THEME announcement. By that, I mean there will be a general concept but I'll still need regular Salad clips to go in as well.

Hey everyone! First of all, sorry Deuce for not being on here so long, the army is a real killer... Being a driver in the army is not as easy as it sounds either... But I see I came back right in time to check out the beta :D So far, it looks very funny and entertaining. However, I have a few suggestions. I know it's kinda rude of me to not being here all this time and then suddenly give you suggestions, but I still would like to express myself.

First of, the opening idea is good, but I would edit it a bit more and make it more fast phased, more things going on. And if you need me to change the "video" thing in the rating, I can do it easily, if you still can edit it. Also, I would suggest you to speak REALLY fast there in the beginning, it would sound so much funnier, or at least make it at double speed, if you don't want to record it again.

Second, the transition between the clips is the same again. I would suggest changing it to something different. I know AMV Hell used many good ideas for the noise transitions, but it doesn't mean we can't come up with something else. If you want, I can try to think of something fast, because this Sunday I'm going back to the army.

Everything else is very good. The submissions are very funny and whoever made the "it sucks to be me" submission is simply a genious. I laughed on the floor quite long after seeing it :lol:

And maybe I can make a few more submissions, as long as you'll except them.

*raises hand* I second those suggestions.

Wow! It must be tough work, huh? That's cool!

Hadn't thought of that, but it sounds like a good idea. It would lend the beginning more energy.

O.O *sniff* Thank you!

(btw, deuce, I forget in which file type I submitted the Princess Tutu clip, but I could try to resend. The video quality wasn't so hot. Sorry about that! ^^*)

I telled a fib...

I beta-tested the AMV Salad 2 last night at AMA.

A couple of observations:
* a few of the clips generated some "AWWWWW"...in that :shock: kind of way.
* whoever said the Imogen Heap / Gundam thing was played out didn't tell the AMA audience.
* ...SMOKE!

As soon as the end credits get tacked onto the end, it's going to Otakon for the actual premiere. Word is also getting around about the Salad project... :D

I'm glad it looks like AMA enjoyed it! But what does that observation mean? Is that good? ^^*

It just means they weren't expecting things like the girl "touching herself" or the things going on in the "you's a Ho" clip. It's like when something is "wrong but funny...but wrong,...but..."

...yanno? Not overtly offensive but just over the line enough to incite a reaction. I'm not sure how else to explain it. Those moments should give people something to remember, though... ;)

UPDATE:

I think it was suggested to me by InspZenigata, but whatever the case I have submitted BOTH AMV Salads to be shown at Anime Weekend Atlanta in Spetember.

The initial response was, "Interested but conflicted." Apparently they were concerned about the population of "AMV Hell follow-ups" as well as their "Short Attention Span Theater AMV constest." I assured them that we are not in league with the inspiration behind this project, especially since their latest is going for the jugular in terms of offensiveness. Furthermore, I explained the entire background of our MEP (dating back two years already).

There won't be an official panel since I can't afford to attend AWA, much less travel and hotel so close between Otakon and NekoCon. I suggested they screen both videos together as a "block" of programming. I don't see how they couldn't afford one hour among TV-14 viewing times, but we shall see. I linked them to Megavideo for viewing as well as to the AMVS2 trailer with the option of accepting a download link for the latest.

Hopefully, AWA will become the newest addition to the annual AMV Salad tour circuit...
