Best No-Effects Video

Postby JCD » Wed Jan 19, 2005 3:43 pm

I just checked that there is this new category. It really needs some pimping because really good AMVs with no little effect at all are rare.

So go ahead and give me some 8-)

I figured as I saw this that I have tried something like this this year:

I really think Fractured Reality could be nominated in this category. It's a very slow, very dramatic video (great to nominate fr Best Drama as well) that has very little or no effects in it (nothing big, just simple fades and transitions).
As the warlock said in the end, even if another age of storms buffets the world, I intend to go on living, and fighting, for you who saved me from the darkness, the one I love!

My vid ain't too popular but has no effects and if you've seen episode 101 of Naruto I am sure I will get a chuckle out of you.

Hope you enjoy it ^_^

Anyone besides me notice that there's tons of videos in the list for "Best No-Effects Video" that have effects. Delerium comes to mind, as well as Dive, Whisper of the Beast, Why...? Can't...? I...?, Everyone is Different, etc...

The list goes on and on.

Is the category even READY for the flood of votes that it will recieve from the uninformed or idiotic site-goer (Not naming any names, just making a broad generalization.) who would just vote for all the vids they like, regardless of category, even if it's listed in a wrong category?

Seems like tyhis is a very iffy category to have...

I don't know, it's not much different from Most Original or Most Artistic. They don't have strict categories for those either.

Most original and most artistic are matters of opinion, and thus can be judged easily from person to person.

Best no-effects... to quality... the video MUST have no effects in it. A bunch of vids in that list have effects.

In any case, I am going to be abstaining from nominating or voting in Best No-Effects and Best Use of Simplicity. I think they are ridiculous categories, and are too buggy to be implemented.

Also, I'd like to point out that there's a few of the rejected categories that would have been better to have in the contest, such as "Saddest Video"...

I'm not sure what's being classified as an "effect" for this conversation. I know that the list of nominatable vids is based on whether people checked "Digital Effects" or not when they entered the video, but clearly some people used what are being considered effects, without flagging it as such. Just curious.

Anyway, if a little bit of overlaying video clips, and fades don't count as effects, I'd like to point out my video, because, well, that's what this is here for :P

Plz to enjoy, and thanks for your consideration :}

I'm pretty sure [please correct me if I'm wrong] that all the videos eligible for this year's VCAs are on those lists. Since "No-Effects" or "Original" or "Artistic" aren't actual categories for people to enter their videos in, I think they decided to leave it up to the general public to nominate those they think are the best. I agree that it is a somewhat iffy category, but I think that's one of the reasons we're having a three-step voting process this year...and to prevent people from nominating themselves in every category :roll:. But you've gotta admit, there are more well-informed people on the org than "idiotic site-goers" :wink: .
