Quick introduction, if that's ok. I was a member of this site about two years ago for a short time under a different name, just posting on the boards and doing reviews for people. Wasn't making any AMVs myself, though I wanted to get into it, I was at a point where I really couldn't take up the hobby. I didn't really lose interest but I stopped posting here and pretty much gave up on the idea for a while.
Flash forward to last May: I'm at my very first ACEN, which is my very first con, as a matter of fact. I sat in on the opening day AMV panel, and later was able grab a seat for the packed screening of the first night showing of the ACEN AMV contest, which was unexpectedly cool. I mean, just sitting in a room with dozens of other people, and getting to watch some of the best AMVs I've ever seen, complete with surround sound, was really a treat. I want to say it was inspiring, though I still haven't taken the steps toward getting my act together and equipping myself with all the right tools to make my own.
If it's ok to ask, who were the people who ran that panel? They mentioned that they were regulars here (I wouldn't be suprised if they were webmasters or admins too). I just wanted to say thanks again for the good panel. Perhaps it wasn't totally packed but I still got something out of it. (Not that anyone's going to remember, but I was the guy in the red t-shirt). I guess I do have some questions for them, though I'll wait until after I check through the guides first, but I was just wondering who was there so I could know for future reference, if that's ok.
Hopefully I'll have something in the next few months to show, and who knows? Maybe I'll even be able to get something into a con. *Crosses fingers*
